Knights Of The Zodiac

alexholtcohan@gmail.com (Alex Holt - Cohan) — Thu, 02 Nov 2023 23:00:00 GMT

Knights Of The Zodiac is an odd choice for a live-action film, especially when you consider that it would never be as popular in America as it was in Japan. So why did we get one? In 2023 No less? weird

Jobless Reincarnation season 2 part 1

alexholtcohan@gmail.com (Alex Holt - Cohan) — Thu, 28 Sep 2023 23:00:00 GMT

Jobless Reincarnation is unapologetic about its content. However, this is not because the story is certain that it's moral. It's because the story follows the journey of a person trying to find his way forward after being left behind for years. This aspect of the story makes it worth discussing, despite its flaws.

The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes

alexholtcohan@gmail.com (Alex Holt - Cohan) — Thu, 01 Jun 2023 23:00:27 GMT

"The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes" is a movie that explores the aftermath of loss and wouldn't exist without the influence of works such as those by Makoto Shinkai, which paved the way for it. It ends in a hopeful place but it never promises it will be a happy ending. If you find yourself on a plane it's worth a watch.

Yakitori is a pretty standard War story with a wild twist. Although it's not the best movie I've seen, I honestly hope there is more to come from the creators. The storyline kept me engaged and the twist definitely threw me for a loop. Overall, I would recommend giving it a watch.

Avatar: The Last Airbender has become a topic of debate in the anime fandom. Some argue that it should be grouped with Naruto, Bleach, Dragon Ball, and other anime shows, while others believe it should be kept separate due to its unique storytelling style. I want to discuss this show because it has flourished in a way that few others have, with new stories that captivate audiences. As someone currently enjoying the Rise of Kyoshi novels, I thought it was time to explore a show that has taken inspiration from the best elements of anime as a medium.

alexholtcohan@gmail.com (Alex Holt - Cohan) — Thu, 20 Apr 2023 23:00:06 GMT

The Director of Your Name Makoto Shinkai couldn't really stick the landing with his follow-up movie Weathering With You, but maybe that's because, for many years, he's always made the same movie. Yes, the characters are different, but it is always the same story of star-crossed lovers with a sad ending. With Your Name, he gave it a happy ending, but with Weathering with You, he couldn't help but have a little Climate dred at the end there. Suzume is a different story, though almost entirely. Let's talk about it.

Gundam Narrative

alexholtcohan@gmail.com (Alex Holt - Cohan) — Fri, 01 Mar 2019 03:00:00 GMT

I stepped out of Gundam Narrative and, after seeing the dream like sequence of a gundam movie letting out alongside the live action Alita I turned on my phone to see a old friend who I had met in person once at a quiet dance party years ago but have since come to know as a fellow anime fan and champion of gundam and gunpla asking me what I though of the movie i told him then I DM'd him and asked him if he wanted to come on the show to talk about the movie. His reply was "Hell Yeah. Gundam is Life man"

A Silent Voice

alexholtcohan@gmail.com (Alex Holt - Cohan) — Fri, 01 Feb 2019 02:57:14 GMT

A Silent Voice is a Film that was forced into the shadow of the Giant that was and is Your Name, but it is in many respects a more important film then Your Name because while one is about love across time the other is about Love in the face of real and meaningful difference and how to accept people as a whole. A Silent Voice isn't about a far out premise it's about real people looking to and make a place to belong, and it is beautiful.
