Look Back Film U.S. Premiere Review

I was lucky enough to attend Anime Expo this year and squeeze into the U.S. premiere of the movie adaptation for Tatsuki Fujimoto’s Look Back! What I witnessed was a passionate usage of the medium that channeled the original work’s themes and set the standard for future adaptations of the acclaimed mangaka’s works. AX staff shuttled the premiere into an incredibly small panel room of about 200…

Look Back and the Art of "What If"

We all have dreams growing up. Some of us want to be firefighters, athletes or even superheroes… Look Back asks the question, “what if you didn’t give up on those dreams?” You may have heard of Look Back’s author, Tatsuki Fujimoto, for his hyper-violent serialized manga, Chainsaw Man. Or maybe you’ve read his breakout series, Fire Punch. Either way, Fujimoto’s stories typically have a sense of…

Advent Seven 10-Year Retrospective

I remember sitting in my parents’ unfinished basement in the summer of 2013, in what was essentially a makeshift bedroom. The haze of the afternoon sun passed gently through the ceiling-high windows, and I could feel the cold concrete floor underneath my feet. I was working tirelessly at my laptop on a new logo design in GIMP called “Rising Seven”. I had no idea what it would be used for yet, I…

FLCL: Grunge Episode 2 REVIEW

The FLCL franchise is filled with stories of adolescence, and how it can involve parental abandonment, lost friendships, and out-of-control hormones. But something new that FLCL: Grunge episode 2 brings to the table is the unique bond between siblings, and how that bond can wane over time under the weight of societal and financial pressures.

FLCL: Grunge Episode 1 Review

About one week ago, a party of 13 people piled into my apartment’s tiny living room just shy of 11 P.M. and gathered around the TV. It was my 29th birthday party, so the remote was handed off to me with the express promise that I could play anything I wanted. There were plenty of new and exciting anime to pick from – Zom 100, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, Reborn as a Vending Machine – but my mind was…
