Blue Box Ep. 25 "Even So" marks the finale of the first season of this anime. As you might expect from the previous episode, this one deals with the wreck of the Hina ship that sunk then. Interestingly, it's the way the story deals with that ship sinking in a way that blames neither party that

Blue Box Ep. 24 "A Roller Coaster" isn't quite as exciting as the title makes it out to be. In fact, it varies from being light-hearted fun to being downright tragic, with the roller coaster aspect of the show bringing the emotional feels swinging up and down until it hits the ground. Alas, this is

Blue Box Ep. 21 "A Chance to Blossom" carries multiple meanings. The first meaning comes from Chinatsu, and is only apparent when you look at her scene in a romantically philosophical context. The second meaning comes from the newly introduced Ayame Moriya, who is also getting a chance to blossom
Blue Box Ep. 20 "As One of Her Closest Friends" has a bit of a emergency happen with the local school's Snow White play. Mostly due to the prince being a no-show. Fortunately, Taiki is there to save the day as a substitute prince! With some interesting complications for his love life considering
Blue Box Ep. 19 "I've Got Plans" is the day of a cultural festival: a kind of open campus festival typical for Japanese schools, and is thus typical of school-focused slice of life anime in general. As it turns out, this anime is no different from them. However, it does have the advantage of that
Blue Box Ep. 18 "I Know" has Taiki engage in a badminton battle of the century against Shūji Yusa. All in spite of the fact that it's a practice match and theoretically not as important as an actual match. Theoretically, that is. If you think about it though, it's great prep for those real matches
Blue Box Ep. 17 "Of Course I Want to See It" has everyone preparing for their respective sport/event. However, it's definitely Hina who has the spotlight in this episode. Especially with the level of effort she's putting into playing Snow White in a high school play. Blue Box Ep. 17 "Of Course I
While Blue Box Ep. 16 "Unfair Woman" still has a significant focus on Taiki, it seems that Chinatsu is more the central character of this episode. All thanks to an interesting opinion of her actions, and from her own mother too. Viewers may disagree with the opinion that indecision is an unfair
There's a growing trend in cinema right now, and that is the trend of movies being fun again. Just a good old-fashioned time at the theater (or home since streaming accounts for most viewership these days) filled with laughs and action and heart that remind you why you go to escape in the first
Remaking Faces of Death is a hell of a move in 2026. Although, this movie doesn't really remake that diabolical film from 1978, it instead takes inspiration from it and it even exists in the universe that this film takes place in. So getting that out of the way so that the horror "diehards" who
There was a time when the stoner comedy was a reliable genre, particularly among the coveted demographic of young men. I remember those late nights in the college dorm quite fondly. Up late working on a paper last minute, ready for the weekend, and a friend suggests ordering a pizza and popping in
