Karen's Anime Blog

Watching television can be fun, but it sure does take time– time that you likely no longer have in the fast-paced world of today. Instead of laboriously tracking the output of the frighteningly prolific island nation known as Japan, we now provide this exquisitely-curated service to give you the main idea of everything remotely important that happened in the programs called “anime” this week. Now you can spend all that extra time playing Donkey Kong, painting a mural, or dusting your PVC figures– c’mon, you know they need it by now.

1. Nelluru offers premium Troll childcare services. Get yourself a wet nurse that can give milk and carry five times her weight in traveling supplies, your kid deserves it.

2. Some animators used a picture of real food to weasel out of drawing a picture of said food, and the internet went crazy with oden-lust.

3. Takopi’s Original Sin went full Doctor Who on all of our asses.

4. Anne Shirley got her second marriage proposal from a total doofus.

5. Infomercial for camping equipment poses the question “Why do people like camping?” The answer is “Because people like camping, that’s why.” Buy a new cooking stove, at Campmor!

6. A British father wants to know why an 18-year-old arcade employee is dating his-twelve-year-old daughter; he is assured killing is not warranted just yet, but it was a close call.

7. Yoshiki was possessed by a ghost made out of hair and nearly drowned a monster in his bathtub, but the monster fought back. Monster also really likes it when Yoshiki sticks his hand inside his chest, it tickles.

8. CloverWorks was like, “We’re such a good animation studio, we can even handle live-action puppet shows in our cosplay anime.”

9. Kyoto Animation was like “Oh yeah, you think that’s hot? Well look at us, we can animate nine different freakin’ shows at the same time, how do you like THEM apples, bitch?”

10. Secrets of the Silent Witch introduced a horse girl, in the sense of “a girl who rides horses”; Umamusume: Pretty Derby fans are disappointed, but they’ll take what they can get this season.
