In Honor of Kyoto Animation

After these horrifying news, I’ve decided to do a recap on KyoAni’s main titles from their foundation until now as a homage for its staff, especially the victims and their families. We don’t know where the studio will be going from now, but we do know of its journey until the present moment. There were hits and there were misses, but it overall deserves appreciation now more than ever.

This is going to be a bit long but they deserve it all and more.

Nurse Witch Komugi-chan Magikarte (2002)

Inuyasha Movies 1 to 3 (2001-2003)

Munto (2003-2009)

Full Metal Panic! Fumoffu/TSR (2003-2006)

Air (2005)

Kanon (2006)

Clannad (2007-2009)

Suzumiya Haruhi (2006-2010)

Lucky Star (2007-2008)

K-ON! (2009-2011)

Nichijou (2011)

Hyouka (2012)

Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! (2012-2018)

Tamako Market (2013-2014)

Free! (2013-present)

Kyoukai no Kanata (2013-2015)

Amagi Brilliant Park (2014-2015)

Hibike! Euphonium (2015-present)

Musaigen no Phantom World (2016)

Koe no Katachi (2016-2017)

Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon (2017)

Violet Evergarden (2018-present)

Tsurune (2018-2019)

Personally, part of me wants to believe that these people will continue living through their creations, but what’s been done to them is unforgivable. We all know that this will definitely affect current and future projects of the studio, but let’s show only support for the survivors until they’re able to get back on track.

Stay strong, KyoAni!!

Free!: How opinions change over Time.

I remember when I first watched Free! a couple of years ago. I started it only because it was a show by Kyoto Animation. Like many others at the time I dismissed it as mindless fanservice at first, though I still watched through the entire thing for some reason. Probably because it was KyoAni. I didn’t believe that this could be much more than some kind of ecchi show for girls, after all the Internet did it’s best to give me that picture. But this is still a KyoAni show and KyoAni shows have much more to them than being moe fests or in this case “manservice” (except for Phantom World. That shit was totally just stupid and mindless fanservice with a bit moe mixed in.) and yes, Free! was no exception. It actually managed to draw me in with it’s likeable cast of characters telling a story about this group of friends and their shared passion as well as their hardships for/through swimming. If this would have been a more sports focused show, I don’t know how much I would have enjoyed it, but eventhough swimming was always a present topic I felt it was used more as an device to tell the stories of these characters. I’d say it is a Slice of Life show more than a Sports show. I never thought I could get as much enjoyment out of Free! as I did in the end and now, after years since I first watched this show, thinking about how this show was going to be so stupid, I’m sitting here, started season three fully hyped for it and can’t wait for the next Episode.

Also.. I wished, I could watch the movies somewhere legal but.. I just can’t afford another monthly subscription service.. Well.. I suppose I have to wait with them eventhough technically they both play before season 3..
