Waiting sucks. I mean we’re fine and I got stuff to do. But man, waiting to hear back really sucks.

This. Like I think the octopus stuff is an interesting way of exploring teen hornyness but overall I like the story and the vibes. Maybe let them execute the vision and then judge? Anime, of course, has a wider audience than manga here, so there will be changes all the time.

I’ve learned that slice of life teenage shenanigans like this is just comforting as hell. This one and Horimiya are some of my favorites

Yes!! It’s so good!! Been waiting on this one for a while

You and I Are Polar Opposites is surprisingly one of my favorite anime of last season. The kids feel so real and all the day by day relationship, it’s really sweet. Also helps that the main girl reminds me of my wife ❤️

Eagerly awaiting season 2

I’ll have to look that up. Thanks!

Which podcast?

Just watched the Anaconda (2025) movie…

What the heck was that? It was funny but noooot good. But not bad? Pffft

It looks so cool! I would want it, but without a pop socket I drop my phone too much

We have an event next weekend at the Minnesota State Fair Grounds! Come stop by at the Rewind Book Club!

I’m just gonna start banning people I swear, because I hate seeing these posts after each episode.

But also, I don’t know that I want the show to have him picturing the other guy wrapped in octopus tentacles in the first ep? Let’s not start with a shock and scare to the normies pls?

What works on paper doesn’t always work on screen.

Anyway this is a post about Go For it Nakamura-kun

I think I need people to understand that when a story changes between adaptations, it’s not always insidious. Often times it’s because different mediums have different requirements to tell stories and you have to change the flow of the story to work within that new framework.

Welp. Saw the series, so of course I had to start picking up the books….

My review for Game Changer is up!

Quick post before bed. Tonight, with our walking tacos I made Pikachu Lemon Tarts and Clobbopus Vanilla Punch. Super yummy!

I should specify that I haven’t read the book and have only listened to the Just King Things summary

Finished the miniseries for 11/22/63 and can I say I’m impressed with the love story? Wasn’t really feeling the main character or the time travel shenanigans, but his love affair with Sadie and how that played out just hit all the right tragic notes and I really loved that.
