[Event Review] ANIME Impulse San Diego 2023 – A Good Experience!

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting TL/DR I would say that this is a good starting point for first-time attendees to anime conventions, with a single qualifier: this is a PG-13/TV-14 sort of event based on some of the items I’ve seen sold. So, be aware of that when making a final decision. Size and Scale + Food Alley This is definitely a small-scale type … Continue reading [Event Review] ANIME Impulse San Diego 2023 – A Good Experience!

PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS: This #TikTokBan Bill Is Far More Restrictive Than You Think

We do not usually post political content here at The Anime View, but this is important to understand. The S.686 bill (also called the RESTRICT act) is far more restrictive than many realize. It is not just a bill against a single platform but a bill that opens the gates which have protected internet freedoms of the people from overwhelming US governmental control. S.686 is … Continue reading PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS: This #TikTokBan Bill Is Far More Restrictive Than You Think

[Theory] Villains Are Destined to Die: I Think It’s a Coma (Spoilers)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I tend to dislike “it’s a coma” theories when I read them because the idea of everything being a dream or part of a coma is overused and clichĂ©d. However, I can’t say that these types of theories don’t have merit. I mean, a clichĂ© becomes one for a reason, right? And, for the first time (I think) in … Continue reading [Theory] Villains Are Destined to Die: I Think It’s a Coma (Spoilers)

By playing with another, you can enjoy the full game in about 2 to 3 hours as either the deer-fawn or wolf-pup (or even switching between the two). I recommend that you play with another person because the controls … Continue reading [Game Review] Blanc: Two-Player Fun

My reasoning is simple–it’s because both pairings are incestuous to some degree. Kaname is Yuuki’s ancestor/brother while … Continue reading [Analysis] The Precious Sister of The Villainous Grand Duke: The Not Incest, Incest Romance

[Analysis] Pearl Appreciation (Steven Universe)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I must admit that when Steven Universe (SU) was airing, I wasn’t a fan of the show. However, I did watch the series at random intervals due to my friend group being largely obsessed with it. As many friends moved on from the series, I continued to check back in because of my favorite character from the show, Pearl. … Continue reading [Analysis] Pearl Appreciation (Steven Universe)

[Analysis] Happy Hearts & Matching Outfits: A Family Unit

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate the season of love than by talking about one of my favorite romantic tropes in comics–matching outfits. It’s something I’ve discussed a few times or mentioned briefly, like in my appreciation of Smurf’s World’s costuming for a special dinner, but this trope extends beyond just romance. … Continue reading [Analysis] Happy Hearts & Matching Outfits: A Family Unit
