Satoshi Kon’s Millennium Actress is streaming free on the free streaming service Tubi (both sub and dub) and I can’t recommend it enough it’s my favorite movie of all time.
It’s the least talked about Satoshi Kon project and though I understand why people focus on his other works more it still makes me sad
Millennium is a heart aching story and if you have any interest in anime or even film you should stop what you’re doing and watch it now you won’t regret it.
Also get tissues, because it will probably make you cry (I sob every time)

Buddy Daddies Season Review – Winter 2023
When P.A. Works announced the release of Buddy Daddies, anime enthusiasts quickly compared it to last season’s hit, Spy x Family, with its captivating portrayal of found-family dynamics. However, Buddy Daddies Season 1 didn’t simply live in the shadow of its predecessor – it emerged as a unique and refreshing take on the genre. For those unfamiliar, Buddy Daddies follows the story of two hitmen, Kazuki and Rei, who find themselves tasked with caring for a baby named Miri.
Animated by P.A. Works and helmed by director Yoshiyuki Asai, Buddy Daddies takes viewers on a heartwarming journey as these two formidable men discover the joys and challenges of fatherhood. From navigating diaper changes and feeding schedules to protecting Miri from their dangerous line of work, Kazuki and Rei undergo a remarkable transformation as they learn to put their newfound role as dads first.
What sets Buddy Daddies apart is its ability to strike a perfect balance between humor, action, and emotion. The series effortlessly blends heart-pumping fight scenes with heartwarming moments of tenderness and vulnerability. In addition, the animation is top-notch, with stunning visuals that perfectly capture the story’s essence.

After re-watching the new Blue Exorcist anime episode (ep.4) I can't stop thinking about how this arc should have been adapted soo many years sooner. it came out 10 years ago. And THIS is the true quality writing this series is known for and what truly pushes fans into really getting into it. Yes, this series is a slow burn/in-for-the-long-haul and the waiting always pays off tremendously, but I still believe it should not have taken THIS long for it to be adapted into an anime.
And it just sucks. It sucks even more that even the biggest anime-only fan's sole interaction with this series was nothing more than the mere introductory premise and never got to the true plot of this series for over than a decade since the first season. I can't help but pity them, at least in the manga it took around 5(?) years for this arc to start, it should not have taken any longer than that after the kyoto saga adaptation imo.
This series has soo much to say with so many stories left unexplored in the anime and yet the wider anime community still calls it "mid" based off the shitty non-canon season 1 ending that unfortunately left everyone with false impressions of this series. It says A LOT how the majority of people who have read the manga agrees it's phenomenal, miles better than the anime.
And it just frustrates me because Blue Exorcist could have still kept up the huge audience and the reputation & recognition it deserves for it's level of quality writing, especially for shonen. Instead of bearing the fate of its audience whittling away over the years due to the anime's mistreatment and the only fans remaining are the loyal manga fans. This series deserved better treatment years ago, but late is better than never.

Starting to think that the key to being a staple “must watch” anime is to trick people into learning philosophy cause we’ve got:
Evangelion - come for the mecha fights stay to learn about the “self”, reality, and identity
Cowboy Bebop - come for the space cowboys stay to learn about what it truly means to live and to be alive
Trigun - come for the silly main character and cool fights stay to learn about pacifism, forgiveness, the sanctity of life, and the strength of hope
Fullmetal Alchemist - come for the cool science “magic” stay to learn about Plato, what is truth, and how to live a good life
