[Event Review] Anime Town Greenville 2026: Moving In The Right Direction At The Wrong Time

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting In January I attended Anime Town Greenville for the third year in a row and I believe that this was also their third year hosting in the Greenville Convention Center. I can honestly say that there was a lot of improvement between this year’s convention and the two prior. However, unfortunately, circumstances outside anyoneā€™s control ended up defining much … Continue reading [Event Review] Anime Town Greenville 2026: Moving In The Right Direction At The Wrong Time

[Review] That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Azure Sea (SPOILERS!)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last week, I went to see That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Azure Sea (2026) in theaters, and I ended up watching it twice (once dubbed and once subtitled). While I really enjoyed the movie, I think that if youā€™re on the fence about going to watch it, Iā€™d honestly recommend waiting … Continue reading [Review] That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime the Movie: Tears of the Azure Sea (SPOILERS!)

[Review] The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 4: A Rough Start That Never Fully Recovers (Spoilers)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I didnā€™t expect to be writing this kind of post about The Rising of the Shield Hero, but Season 4 was a pain to get through. This used to be one of my favorite shows and is one I have found genuinely engaging in the past. The premise is very interesting to me and I love most of the … Continue reading [Review] The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 4: A Rough Start That Never Fully Recovers (Spoilers)

[Reflection] Strolling Through Old Watches on MyAnimeList

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting About eight or nine years ago, I drifted away from MyAnimeList. Not in the sense I stopped using it entirely, but more like I just stopped logging in frequently and stopped using it to save my watchlists. I made this change because I wanted something moreā€¦ mine and modifiable. Around that time I was a newly working professional and … Continue reading [Reflection] Strolling Through Old Watches on MyAnimeList

What to Watch: Spring 2026

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting This upcoming season is ramping up to be one of the most stacked Iā€™ve seen in years. Sure, the list of new and returning titles always feels longā€”but usually, I can narrow things down to about ten ā€œmust-watchā€ shows without too much trouble. This time I wasn’t even close to that. As I started pulling titles, I saw so … Continue reading What to Watch: Spring 2026

[Recommended Watch] Animal Partner by JJALTOON on YouTube

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting The last few weeks have been a bit rough. We ended up taking an unexpected hiatusā€”because of meā€”mainly because I didnā€™t have anything prepared for the first time in a long while, didnā€™t have time to edit other submissions to fill the gap, and was juggling midterms for almost all but two of the eight classes Iā€™m teaching this … Continue reading [Recommended Watch] Animal Partner by JJALTOON on YouTube
