Don't know where else to post this.

Akira Takarada, who starred in many Godzilla and Toho films has passed away. May he rest in peace.

What a terrible day for rain...

I'll be starting Sailor Moon R soon.

Also watching Doc Martin Series V - IX. Series X is the last one. Christmas 2022 will be the finale. Watching this on DVD.

Discovery Series IV finished up on Paramount and Picard Series II has 7 weeks yet.

Argh, I wanna catch up on SODO and AmiAmi has Revice waves 1,2,4, and 5 but also there's a toy fair on the 26th and I wanna save money for that.

So I literally just finished Symphogear (seriously, just saw the final episode of XV like five minutes ago and I need to get this off my chest) and holy cow this was the most interesting binge-watching ride I've ever experienced.

As a literary student studying how to write stories, I acknowledge that it wasn't really 'deep'; in fact it was downright stupid at times. But was it enjoyable? Heck yeah it was! From beginning to the end it was a really emotional ride that reminded me of when I first watched Kamen Rider Gaim (my toku gateway drug); I didn't know what to expect due to experiencing a new genre and I loved (almost) every moment of it.

I really don't know how to summarise this show because of all the sheer hot-blooded-ness and just how fun this series was but this image I found pretty much describes my viewing experience.



Farewell Symphogear. It wasn't just a ride, it was an experience.

Summed it up in one. One does not watch Symphogear, one experiences it with ones entire being and then wonders what the hell just happened after it is over. I love the strange way Kaneko writes and I have never seen such unbridled hot blooded insanity in my life before or since. It genuinely doesn't matter that the show is flat out stupid, or even bad, at times! I personally didn't get too much out of the third and fourth seasons as a whole in spite of some highs, but it was absolutely worth it.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Symphogear is an amazing series. I'm definitely obsessed with the transformation chants and the swan song chant.

I've seen that graph before.

I'm finally getting ready to film my review of the Kamen Rider 1971 manga. Between being busy and the book being a huge chonker, it took me a while to get to this point. I'm really excited to get it out, though. I hope everybody digs it.

I've been interested in Symphogear for a while, I just haven't taken the plunge yet. Maybe I'll watch it once I finish what I'm currently watching? (probably not, tbh )

I went to the doctors check for breast cancer for my chest, and I'm perfectly good.

Do you have a Youtube channel? And yes, Symphogear is amazing, just don't watch it in public lol.

For a split second I read that as you got breast cancer and I got a bit worried there for a bit. Nice to know you don't have any problems in that department.
