Why I dropped 'Listeners'
Listeners is a show that I was excited about as a result of it having been produced by MAPPA, who has produced some of my favourite anime in the past few years. Compounding onto that is the fact that it's core is centred around music, just like their previous outing with Shinichiro Watanabe's Carole and Tuesday. As it was with Carole and Tuesday, Listeners is an original story that was created by the musician Jin. This was definitely on the top end of my list when it came to anticipation, and after watching the first episode I was left very underwhelmed.

The Art of Chill: Stimulants
1. Watching TV "Watching TV spoils your brain" is a familiar, yet science-based warning of our parents. There have been many studies on excessively-exposed-to-TV children's brains, demonstrating changes in both structure and reactants (still, we can't leap to a conclusion whether it's abnormal or detrimental). Since as a considerable number of other surveys have also identified how over-watching TV is related to violence and antisocial trends.

series to validate self righteous spending, cravings for casual drug use, and our legally denied f@*ks
If you’re anything like me (an elementary narcissist), you can see yourself in the characters on screen or in a novel. These three selections give insight of how it began, where it went, and where it’s all going (hopefully), for me anyway. I like to think having rebellious spunk at any age is more than just an egotistic phenomenon. These three satisfy all sinister cravings. From riotous adolescence, to the lucrative sexual escapades in adulthood, which ultimately lead to the fabulous revelations and domination of being a materialist elder. A timeline that I ultimately aspire to embark on myself these three series follow journeys of some delightful self absorbed individuals. If you’re being self credible about how you’re spending your time in ISO, fear not. Watch these series for a comforting comparison on how your life could be. All three are dramatised just, to that perfectly watchable degree.

Streaming Netflix With Me and My Shadow
Many of us are still under at least partial stay-at-home orders, so I’d like to bring two of my favorite shows available on Netflix to your attention. Both are adapted from or inspired by excellent source material that they manage to surpass and both deal with the theme of duality, so grab your shadow-self and start watching.

An Anime Review of 'ID:INVADED'
ID:INVADED is the latest directorial effort by Ei Aoki and seeing that he was attached to the show, it was one of my most anticipated of the year. If anyone was to ask what a story that combined elements of The Cell, Silence of the Lambs, Minority Report, and Inception would look like. This show is what I would point towards. It is quite unfortunate that I was able to discern who the overall antagonist of the show is in the first episode, however the journey that the characters had to go through in order to find the answer for themselves with actual evidence was quite fascinating.

Game of Thrones: A Retrospective (Part II)
Around one year ago, the blockbuster TV show Game of Thrones concluded its eighth and final season, and after all the anticipation the show built up…it was a bit of a disappointment. In this two-part retrospective, I wanted to tackle some of the things I felt were severely mishandled in this season. In the first part, I covered the buildup to the eighth season as well as the first three episodes. This part will deal with the final three episodes, as well as a deep dive into one of the most frustrating choices I’ve ever seen in any television show. Let’s get started, shall we?

Why “Angel” Is One of the Best TV Shows Ever
Scores of people sing the praises of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” Joss Whedon’s groundbreaking show. “Buffy” continues to garner attention, its cast regularly makes the convention circuit, and entire academic journals have been dedicated to the field of “Buffy studies.” The show is known for bringing serious teen issues into the conversation, offering stunning episodes such as “Hush,” and remains one of the only shows to kill off its title character — then bring her back. It is, without a doubt, one of the most influential shows in the history of television.
