So I had the busiest March ever / got stupid sick, but I got everything done and actually managed to cap it all off with some brief getaway time, which ruled because it ALSO finally provided reading time...

-Which means I sat down and FINALLY read Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow! A book for which I had many interesting thoughts! I'll formula a plan of how I'm gonna handle it for Book Club, but that will happen in the next couple weeks.

-Similarly to that, I'm sorry I couldn't get a twitch screening together in march, but stupid sinus infections and insomnia just made it impossible. But I'll have a fun one perhaps next week / early April (date still TBD) and I'm so looking forward to it. DOING THEM IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS.

-And to make up for March we'll likely do another smaller one pretty soon after, but it has a specialized goal. For it is one I'm tentatively calling The "Landon Has Never Seen LORD OF THE FUCKING RINGS" Marathon, in which we'll watch the theatrical versions together and watch him finally fall in love with the lil wee hobbits of Middle Earth. I just LOVE that people can keep discovering these things.

-Lastly, I've been working away at Music Anime! Already watched Bocchi and holy heck its so good. Also slowly been getting through NANA, but every episode fills me with TRUE SADNESS and I have to sit down for awhile after. But that also leads to a question...

Is there ANYWHERE I can watch Kids On The Slope? It's off of crunchyroll and I can't even seem to BUY it digitally anywhere and wondering what my best option is.

-Also, I've slowly been working my way through some popular Battle Shonen stuff because that a longer form project thing going on at the same time.

-Also also, Suzume comes out this month. This guy might be seeing it a bit early :)

-you know, my little brother dropped Nana because he couldn't stand how much Nana (you know which one) kept making the same mistakes over and over again, lol. Interested to see what you can tease out of it, or if you ultimately feel like it's the same wheel spinning as fruits basket, just for a different set of emotions. -Sony buying and merging crunchyroll and funimation has been a disaster for media preservation. Large corporations are not our friends, and have no interest in keeping back catalogs available. I know that you have to maintain a higher level of plausible deniability as a media critic, but I know how I feel about shows that have fallen into licensing black holes. -I'm sure you saw the most recent round of Battle Shonen Discourse with Michael B Jordan's top 5 anime recs. Guess we can expect that column after you've watched all 2877 episodes of those 5 shows lmao. If you want to write a fresher take than everybody else, go straight to the source and watch Tomorrow's Joe instead. (yes, I'm still trying to insist you watch some Dezaki, he was just as influential on shonen stuff as he was on shoujo stuff ) -I'd just like you to know that Suzume was originally pitched by Shinkai as a WLW story before producers shot it down. I've heard that if you squint at the final movie, you can definitely still see it.

Hoping the stream won't end up being on the 7th -- it's the second day of Pesach, so I'd have to miss it -- but if that's how the timing works out, c'est la vie I guess. Anyway, I haven't seen any of the anime for the music post, so I don't know how much commentary I'll be able to offer then, but I've got the VA roundup for Bocchi ready and I've started working on both Nana's and KotS's! I don't know whether you've seen more of some of the longer shows you've started (Kaguya-sama past S1? Fruits Basket past the first half of S1? Food Wars past S3? The first Demon Slayer seasons?), so I'm assuming no for now unless I hear otherwise. Battle shonen manga in general… eep. I just hope my browser doesn't crash from adding the One Piece or Naruto credits to the comparisons I've been doing. One final note, on the topic of shonen manga. News broke today that the creators of Food Wars are starting a new manga in Weekly Shonen Jump -- about movies! Hoping for success, though there's no guarantees in this industry; after Naruto ended, the creator's next manga didn't even last a year.
