Sasaki and Peeps Ep. 12 "Real Life, Fantasy, and the Fourth World" ends the season with a bookend, bringing the circle to a close with a scene not unlike the scenes in the first episode. Even the title lampshades it. Then suddenly, it pulls the rug out from under us, and gives us a lovely sequel
Sasaki and Peeps Ep. 11 "Imagination and Counters" is a series of emergencies one right after the other. All involving some psychic shenanigans of epic proportions. It looks very much like our salaryman and his pet bird from another world won't be getting rest for quite some time. Sasaki and Peeps
Sasaki and Peeps Ep. 10 "Value and Dignity" gives us the most political thriller episode of this anime to date. What else do you call it when basically the entire episode consists of tense negotiations? Negotiations that Sasaki both expects...and not. Sasaki and Peeps Ep. 10 "Value and Dignity":

Sasaki and Peeps Ep. 5 "A Magical Man and a Third World" starts off with a relatively straightforward plotline. That plotline quickly devolves into what I can only describe as a Standoff of magical proportions. Wow, Sasaki's job just keeps getting harder and harder. Sasaki and Peeps Ep. 5 "A
One of the most active and prolific filmmakers working today, Steven Soderbergh has made a career of pumping out new films every 6 months. They're rarely the same, too, as he constantly tackles new genres and cultural examinations with engaging characters, dynamic direction and fascinating ideas.
Universal Studios Hollywood brought back Fan Fest Nights after an intriguing opening run of the event. It was a cross between Halloween Horror Nights and a way for guests to meet their favorite characters from various properties. The One Piece characters dominated the meet-and-greets last year, and
One scene with the rolling hills and vineyards bathed in gorgeous straw-hued light really snapped You, Me & Tuscany into place for me. Love starts with a fantasy, both in real-life and the film. Anna (Halle Bailey), a down-on-her-luck housesitter, sits next to Michael (Regé-Jean Page) as this
