“I second that spit take.” Watch Along- Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul (sub) EP. 6

This episode is so long in coming because, for a variety of reasons, I can't sit on my couch. Normally, I watch the episode and type on my laptop at the same time. (Husband asks how I read and comprehend a subtitled anime while simultaneously typing. I tell him that I am magic, but that's …

Watch Along– Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul (sub) EP. 3

I wasn't exactly sure what to expect when I picked up this title, but I'm not disappointed thus far. It's positively marathon-worthy! On to episode 3! Apparently, the angels need the boy for some reason. He's gonna help restore humans' faith in the gods? The boy looks so innocent sleeping on the couch. Oooch. Azazel's …

Watch Along– Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul (sub) EP. 2

I wasn't going to watch-along this next episode of Virgin Soul, but it only took a few seconds to beak that resolve, so let's knock this one out of the park, yeah? This seems like one of those shows that's impossible not to gush about as I view. So, the little boy's a girl... And …

“I’ve finally made all these fine men my love slaves.” — WATCH ALONG: “OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB,” EP. 11 (DUB)

Blogger's Note: Well, just shy of a year-long Ouran break, I am back again to bring you another episodic Watch Along of this amazing title! I needed that time, I think, to step back and gain some distance from this dearly loved but (in my case) oft' over-watched show. These Watch Alongs were, after all, …

Watch Along: Marmalade Boy, ep. 4 (DUB)

This is obviously a quality program. 100/10. Spoilers Ahoy! I physically need Yuu to find out. I LOVE how Ginta's VA narrated his line on the title card. Also, you could say she's being treated like an object, but I honestly love that line, just sayin'. WAS GINTA VOICED BY SOMEONE IN BOYS OVER FLOWERS? …

Watch Along: Marmalade Boy, Ep. 3 (DUB)

  Clearly it's time for episode 3. Let's light this candle! Spoilers Ahoy!! (I keep saying that and now I want chocolate chip cookies.) I've given enough commentary on the 90s way that this intro mashed Tamaki and Tuxedo mask into the form of teenage Yuu, so I'm going to stop now. Clearly, blue haired …

Watch Along: Marmalade Boy, Ep. 2 (DUB)

Well, here we go again! Jumping right in~! Spoilers ahoy! The pure 90s of the opening still has me going. Why can't I have a tennis outft like that? What does "ichiban" mean?" OMG, that's right, HE KISSED HER. These titles remind me of the formatting for Pokemon Indigo League. Again, WHO DESIGNED THOSE UNIFORMS?? Such …

Watch Along: “Kiss Him, Not Me!” (S—Wait, wait, wait, there’s a DUB?)

There's a dub for this?? There's a dub for this?? How did I not know that?? Funimation, you sly dog! Now what is a Shoujothoughts to do: pick up where I left off, or make the jump to the dub? Decisions, decisions... Well, maybe I'll go watch episode 1 in the dub and see if …
