Why not Berserk?

I’ve been inspired by Martin’s post on Berserk to offer my own thoughts. I’ve always jokingly called Berserk, “The story of the Anti-Christ and his best friend.” That said, Berserk is the perfect show. Really, I mean it. The characters are well-crafted and not only that, they actually move the story forward. Every one of […]

Impressions: A slightly less oversimplified view of Allison and Lillia

So Author pointed out, my past impressions post contained a vague description of why I liked Allison and Lillia.

Of course that subject being favorite shows. Now I’ve didn’t read the responses, mostly because I didn’t really feel like it […]
