Black Flame by Gretchen Felker-Martin (2025)

Lots to love about this on a conceptual level but execution-wise just didn't hit for me?

Confession by Nobuyuki Fukumoto and Kaiji Kawaguchi (1998)

Honestly not sure that I liked this one very much. The psychological buildup could be involving if the characters themselves weren't so threadbare, and the descent into madness came off more as meatheaded than anything.

Tokyo Babylon by CLAMP (1990)

An engaging read from start to finish, with an ending I knew was coming yet remained strong in its execution. Wish more was done with its cast (especially Hokuto, who gets a great solo chapter), but I can see why this is such a revered title.

#wipwednesday Some post-s2 ep 6 #staticdust I've been working on since the episode dropped (with a little #valangel seasoning because I can't help myself)

Order will likely change as I become more acquainted with s2’s soundtrack but you know nothing will knock Poison off from no. 1 👌

I can't really blame Vox I'd go insane if my crush rejected me using my deadname

1-5 are accurate! Becomes hazier from there on out, with my love wildly fluctuating between who’s currently on screen. 26 - 35 are all basically tied as “characters with (so far) 3 lines or less” with the deciding factor being which design or presence I like more.

Battle Angel (1993)

Felt like a speedrun of an adaptation, even with the little exposure I've had of the manga and the live-action movie. Still enjoyed it a lot--the direction does a lot of the heavy lifting to get the viewer immersed in the story's atmosphere and world.

Hazbin Hotel season 2 (2025)

Hell of a season that I'm still processing! Really knocked it out of the park in many regards, especially the visuals. Admittedly doesn't top season 1 for me (it's going to be hard for anything to top "Masquerade") but I'm excited for what's to come.

When the story gets its high stakes out of the way to make way for more grounded, more personal stakes
