Hey guys how’s it going? Weekly Check-in time where I went everywhere in my media consumption.
Because of that, I watched two movies, four animes, and one TV show. I also read two picture books with my students and four volumes of manga. Onto the Media!!!!
Movie
The Butler
My mom has wanted to watch this movie for so long and I can definitely see why. There’s so many fantastic actors and so many different perspectives that were represented. It felt so real, profound, and very informative for me. I appreciated the range of time that was covered and the information that may not have been presented in movies like this before. Overall, I appreciated this story being told and I highly recommend it if you enjoy biography movies such as these. 5 out of 5 stars or 5 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣🍣.
R.I.P.D
This movie is definitely one of those that you have to suspend your disbelief on but its a lot of fun with some crude language. If you enjoy speculative stories along with some humor this is perfect for you.. 5 out of 5 stars or 5 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣🍣.
Anime
Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie
This anime was fun and adorable, and the friendship aspect is top notch. There was more drama in these episodes and background information. Otherwise, I still love it. Because of these points, I have to give it a 5 out of 5 stars or 5 sushi 🍣🍣🍣🍣🍣
The Way of the Househusband
This series continues to make me laugh and is perfect for needed mindless television. I wish that it wasn’t all over the place in plot to be honest. But the characters are fun and adorable. I also think its accessible to everyone who hasn’t watched anime before either. Because of these points, I have to give this a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣
Aria the Animation
This anime is one that if you’re not feeling well physically or mentally can bring a smile to your face. But at the same time it can definitely be something that can be annoying if you’re not into the happy go lucky feels. Because of these points, I have to give this anime a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣.
Tonikawa:Fly Me to the Moon
This series was definitely not what I expected,but not in a bad way??? I think personally I’ll need to watch more before I can give a more accurate review. However, I think if you like My Bride is a Mermaid etc., you’ll probably like this but I just wish we knew more about the girl (at least where I am at) because of these points, I have to give this a 3.5 out of 5 stars or 3 sushi 🍣 🍣🍣.
TV Show
ER
This show continues to be fascinating in the professional and personal aspects of life. I wish that though things didn’t go more in the background than in the foreground. Because of these points, I have to give this tv show a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣.
Picture Book
Ruffington Dog Show
This book is one that is definitely perfect for my speech students with the art and speech sounds. The art is beautiful and the story is silly and fun. Because of these points, I have to give this a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣🍣🍣.
Night Light
This book is truly beautiful in art and cadence. My students thought this was a fantastic story however, some of the panels were too dark to keep some of them engaged once the art came back to beauty again though, they were able to appreciate the story again. Because of these points, I have to give this book a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣.
Manga
One-Shot
Now Loading…..
If you like the story New Game but needed a singular volume, this definitely takes the cake. It has a developed story, some video game development jargon, and some wonderful female friendships. I think my only concern was that there was not enough time to develop the female relationship. Because of these points, I have to give this a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣.
Series Starters
Run on Your New Legs Vols 1-3
I’ll be honest, with how much hype this series is receiving, I am surprised I did not get to it sooner, but also why there isn’t an anime for it. I truly appreciate the expositions of all the varying perspectives on protestics, but especially athletic ones, which are not as common. The effective use of COVID-19 in this story was profound and important for readers of today and for the future. I appreciate all the characters, how flowing the story is, and the lessons I learn from each volume. Overall, I love this and highly recommend it and am excited for more 5 out of 5 stars or 5 sushi 🍣 🍣🍣🍣🍣.
The Week Ahead
The week ahead, I think that I need to focus on some of my responsibilities when it comes to reviewing just because I know there’s so much, I need to assist with but also, I have gotten behind on my private projects. This past week I went all over the place and this next week with spring break, I would like to focus on something. What about you guys? What have you read or watched or even listened to this past week? Let’s talk about it!
