Re: Let's Anime: the anime films of 1983

Golgo 13 was the real medium-pusher of that year (for my tastes) but it's 83' is seldom discussed as opposed to 87' and other banger years for anime. This makes me want to revisit the entirety of Crusher Joe and certain scenes from Harmageddon.

Re: What are you Watching?

recently rewatched some comfort-food type anime (well my version of comfort at least) like Genocyber, Devilman, and Angel Cop but want to give Nier a try tonight. Wonder Egg, as mentioned above, is also one I plan on giving a shot when I get time.

Re: What are you Reading?

Read/inhaled the entirety of Suehiro Maruo's most recent work Tomino the Damned and it was marvelously bittersweet, lighter on the surrealism, erotics, and violence compared to his most notable works but just as exquisite with a fascinating narrative that often feels like classic french decadent lit...

Blade of the Immortal was the first manga my youn...
