Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle
anime
The most baffling thing about Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle is that it is a 12-episode prequel to a phone game that doesn't seem to have much to do with the themes of this anime adaptation.
― Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle is bad. It's boring, poorly animated, putridly paced and half the time barely even comprehensible. And yet, watching it, I couldn't help but see the faint flame of lost pote...

anime
Honestly, we'll all probably end up blocked on Twitter (if Yamakan isn't booted off the service again).
― Crunchyroll recently added director Yutaka "Yamakan" Yamamoto's latest film, Hakubo (Twilight).

A Tropical Fish Yearns for Snow GN 1-4
manga
A charming story about two girls who don't quite fit who learn that you really only need one person who understands you to make things worthwhile.
― While all stories have layers to one degree or another, Makoto Hagino's quiet yuri tale A Tropical Fish Yearns for Snow may be covering up more than we might at first think. This possibility comes from the fact that one of the protagonists, Konatsu, keep...
