I've loved Sailor Moon since I was 6 years old. As a fan, I have opinions. Though I love many of the show's characters, a few of them prompt a massive eyeroll from me. Hateful as it sounds, these are the 5 Sailor Moon characters I hate the most. (Spoilers ahead.) 5. Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune (For… Continue reading Top 5 Least Favorite Sailor Moon Characters

Top 10 Favorite Ships
Inspired by Sailor Moon, I set about making a list of my favorite ships and realized some surprising things: I'm not a big book shipper. Very few of my favorite couples come from novels. I don't ship as often as I used to, especially when it comes to love triangles. I can't make myself care… Continue reading Top 10 Favorite Ships
Why I love Netflix’s “Elite”
I just found a wonderful, trashy, perfect new show. Netflix claimed it was a 97% match for me. I began watching with blind trust. The show is called "Elite." Set in Spain, it follows three scholarship students who've just transferred to a fancy new school. The first episode opens with one of these students walking… Continue reading Why I love Netflix’s “Elite”
The Triumphant Return of R.I.P. It or Ship It
I keep about a dozen franchises locked away in my brain with one or two favorite characters from each. Because of this, I have the hardest time picking characters for challenges like R.I.P. It or Ship It, especially when I'm limited to BOOKS. Which is NONSENSE. Instead of choosing 30 characters, I only used characters… Continue reading The Triumphant Return of R.I.P. It or Ship It

Like, all of it: the setting, the language, the characters... I (very reluctantly) picked up City of Bones and felt immediate relief. In it, an art student spending her 16th birthday at… Continue reading 10 Day Book Blog Post Challenge #5: Write about a film/TV adaptation of your favorite book
Second-string Fantasy Feminists
I came across a character I'd never heard of the other day that I immediately wanted on my fantasy feminist team. I would've called the post dedicated to her "The 12th (Wo)man: Rounding out the Fantasy Feminist Line-up." Then I discovered a whole host of female characters that I love. My reasons for choosing these… Continue reading Second-string Fantasy Feminists
Fantasy Feminist Team
I'm finally doing it. I'm forming a girl squad. I've put it off for years because my friends keep choosing true love over the sisterhood. They tell me marriage is a whole lot of fun. BUT IS IT? GIRL SQUAD, ASSEMBLE! What would this squad do? I don't know. Win? Fight for love and justice?… Continue reading Fantasy Feminist Team
Yuri!!! on Ice Skaters Ranked from Worst to Best
(Per my mom's advice, a major SPOILER WARNING goes into effect starting now.) I knew I had depression when I couldn't get through an episode of skating anime "Yuri!!! on Ice" without sobbing. Then again, the show delivers intense emotions and sympathetic plotlines that can trigger tears whether you have a serotonin deficiency or not.… Continue reading Yuri!!! on Ice Skaters Ranked from Worst to Best
