  Uzumaki 2024

  Watched 06 Oct 2024

One way to define this: the ultimate objectification of women. Putting aside…

  ★★★★★ Watched 26 Aug 2023

  Nana is one of my favorite series of all the times. The anime adapted the manga so well. Ai Yazawa is probably the most convincing shoujo manga writer ever. Things seem to be continuously in motion; beginnings and endings wrapped up in an infinite wave of falling snowflakes waiting to melt into each other. The forefront sits in perpetual twilight; characters seem to be eclipsed by their own shadows with barely enough to catch a glimpse of who they are.The…
