By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting As some of you may know, I’ve been on a (mostly quiet) journey to learn more about East Asian cultures and languages. I’m still building confidence when it comes to speaking, but I’d say I have a decent handle on reading and writing low-level Japanese and, lately, I’ve also been casually exploring Chinese and Korean.

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last week a lot happened that reenergized me and my passion for weird, animated, and wonderfully chaotic shows. One of the biggest highlights is that, after nearly six months, GLITCH finally dropped Episode 5 of The Amazing Digital Circus.

While some may disagree with … Continue reading [Analysis] My Gemini: Refusing To Let Go (Spoilers)

Pokémon … Continue reading [Reflection] The Pokéwalker Is Way Better Than Pokémon GO
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last year, I reviewed and recommended Not Your Typical Reincarnation Story and I thought that my usual “Happy Hearts & Matching Outfits!” post this year would be a great follow-up. The series has become a favorite of mine in the last year and the clear attention to detail that the creators have put into the costuming makes it fitting … Continue reading [Analysis] Not Your Typical Reincarnation Story: Happy Hearts & Matching Outfits!

By: Krow Smith | @coffeewithkrow Shadow of the Colossus was released on the PlayStation 2 in 2005 and it’s surprising how much Team Ico (the developers) fit into the game. For example, the map is huge, yet there are no loading screens. You can run from one end of the map to the other without any pauses. However, it did come at the cost of … Continue reading [Analysis] The Art in Shadow of the Colossus: Original vs. Remake
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting In 2016, I was asked to create a presentation introducing the idea of Cultural Studies and applying it to a piece of media in one of my classes. I thought it might be fun to revisit and update that presentation for you all here now that it’s been close to 10 years (wow) as an example of how more … Continue reading [Analysis Overview] Applying Analysis To Entertainment Media: Cultural Studies & Steven Universe
