The Genius of Kino’s Journey

Hello everyone. Justin here and welcome to the final Otaku Mind of 2018. There is a series out there I have praised a number of times. Actually, I praised a number of series multiple times but the one series I always find myself praising and returning to is Kino’s Journey. The simple story of a […]

Project #313: Kakegurui

Hello and welcome to Project Nitsuj. Asians love to gamble. I guess when you live in a culture that puts a huge emphasis on work and efficiency, it’s nice to do something to help relieve that stress and if possible make some money in the process but at the same time it’s dangerous and can […]

Project #312: Kino’s Journey (2017)

Hello and welcome to Project Nitsuj. Let’s talk about Kino’s Journey. Based off a light novel written by Keiichi Sigsawa in 2000 and still continuing to this day, Kino’s Journey on the surface, seems like a simple story about a girl who travels from kingdom to kingdom but in truth there’s actually a deep and […]

Project #311: Batman Ninja

Hello and welcome to Project Nitsuj. In 2012 Warner Bros. released a video series called Batman of Shanghai.

Project #310: Hand Shakers

Hello and welcome to Project Nitsuj. If you were to ask me what I thought the worst anime of 2017 was I would say Eromanga Sensei, an ecchi series that doesn’t add anything new to the formula and is just going through a checklist. I will give the series credit, it knows who its audience […]

Project #309: Cross Ange Part 2

Hello and welcome to Project Nitsuj. It’s time to continue the fantastical mess that is Cross Ange. Last time, we saw our “beloved” (and I use that term loosely) get revealed to be a norma. She gets banished to the frontlines of war, gets two people killed, become somewhat of a badass, meets a boy […]

Project #308: Cross Ange Part 1

Hello and welcome to Project Nitsuj. Allow me to take you into an average day at Sunrise. *Clears throat* We need a new anime, what should we do? Mecha! But the anime is about magic. Mecha! We also have a hint of slavery in it. Mecha! There’s also a hint of lesbianism. What part of […]

The Top 11 Anime Studios

Hello everyone and welcome to the Otaku Mind. Happy holidays to everyone out there. Today, we’re going to be talking about anime studios. Behind every great anime there’s a great studio working behind it. A studio is kind of the backbone of every anime as it’s where the director, character designers, music director, and even […]
