A delightful mix of language learning, cultural tidbits, and entertainment. Just like a bento box, this podcast offers a variety of flavours to savour. - Please note I actively check my social media accounts once a week on Sundays.
I went to see Chainsaw Man - the Movie: Reze Arc over the weekend, what a fantastic film and great summar of the Reze arc as a whole!

Kowloon Generic Romance: I read the first volume of the manga and fell in love with the art style, so I was excited when the anime was announced. No joke, it’s one of the most compelling anime that’s come out this year. Highly recommend it for anyone who is into mystery/psychological themes.

#Vshojo on the brink of collapse after nearly all of their talent have left the company, or have expressed their intent to leave.

This comes after an exposé from #Ironmouse citing unpaid funds to their talent and to the Immune Deficiency Foundation.

Mongrel by Hanako Footman 🎻

The feelings of integrating into a society which is alien to you, the pain and suffering of battling with your identity, who you are, what you are and where you belong. All of these emotions are central to the stories of Meiko, Haruka and Yuki.

Tonight, I finished watching "Tonari no Yōkai-san" - What a beautiful anime and nothing like what I was expecting. I thought it was going to be a fun, slice-of-life anime but it was so much more than that. By the end of the series, I couldn't stop crying!

Just finished Like A Dragon: Yakuza series on Amazon Video. The series was fun, though a little different to what I was expecting. I think if you go into it not expecting scene-for-scene accuracy to the video games, it’s really enjoyable.
