Arknights (Rise From Ember) S3 Main Trailer Reaction

I AM NOT READY FOR TALULAH'S BACKSTORY

Still can't believe the hype actually brought me to tears...

Arknights OST [Signore dei Lupi / Wlfmaster] Reaction

MY FIRST BOSS BATTLE OST?! WHAT IS IL SIRACUSANO ABOUT?!

Okay, yeah, I'm sold... I will definitely cover more Boss Battle Themes!

Someday, I'll have to check out the event itself, cause Texas vs Lappland piqued my interest, and I do love Siracusa from what I've seen so far. I am a sucker for "mafioso + jazz" appar...

A WOMBO COMBO OF HEARTBREAK... SHE SANG THE "ARK SONG"?!

If I had a nickel for every time I've seen Chapter 6 events recreated for music videos, in one recording session no less... I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice. I won't complain though, the music has been incredible! 2025-08-16 17:00:12 +0000 UTC View Post

(Arknights) Steve Aoki feat. RUNN [Last Of Me] Reaction

A MASTERPIECE OF A SONG?! 10 OUT OF 10 COLLABORATION!

Can we just give these animators a LOT of money & freedom to work on more Arknights projects? Could you imagine side stories adapted with this level of quality?! (Yes, I know 3D CGI isn't for everyone, but this was straight up BEAUTIFUL)

What do y'all think...

STARSET [Unbecoming] Reaction

A LIVE ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE?! THE MONSTERS ARE MY ONLY FRIENDS?!

My STARSET journey continues & I am slowly but surely falling in love with their music... if this sentiment holds up once I've finished an album (or two) worth of songs, then I might break down and go to one of their concerts!

What do y'all think...

Arknights Official Concept Trailer 2 Reaction

"WE ARE... ARKNIGHTS" STRAIGHT CHILLS!!!

Seriously, what an unbelievably incredible experience start to finish... even if it's just "concepts," the lore implications are beyond HYPE and I cannot wait to see what lies ahead for Arknights.

What do y'all think about the second concept trailer?

STARSET [Monster] Music Video Reaction

THE ONLY MONSTER IS YOUR MIND...

My STARSET journey has officially begun... and I am so excited!

(PS: I've messed with the audio for my microphone, so I should sound louder than previous videos, but it's still in the testing phase so please bear with me. If you want, feel free to give feedback~)

LUNGMEN'S NEW YEAR CELEBRATIONS?! THE DRAGON SIBLINGS?!

If I had a nickel for every time I've celebrated New Years in Lungmen, I'd have two nickels... which isn't a lot, but it's weird that's it happened twice!

What did y'all think about this episode? Where would you celebrate the New Year in Terra?

BUONGIORNO... SIRACUSAN HOSPITALITY IS TOP TIER

Lappland might just be chaos incarnate... but as they say, never judge a book by its cover!

Arknights Update

I am 4 episodes ahead for U Takes Terra (I've just finished watching Episode 5) but the plan is to finish the whole series ASAP. I'll work on editing later today, it's very early and I need to get some sleep, so I can't guarantee I'll post my reaction to Episode 2 today... but once I've finished the series, I'll focus on a fe...

Quick Reminder For Arknights S3

I've mentioned this in Discord, but I will be EXTREMELY BUSY next weekend (Friday-Sunday) IRL, so I will not be watching the premiere for Arknights S3 on time. I will be behind but the plan is to (hopefully) watch it as early as Monday or Tuesday after that weekend, it depends on how I'm feeling, but please don't get upset (...

No Video Tomorrow (Friday)

Sorry, I'm feeling a little run down today & I didn't have a chance to record, this week's been a little busy IRL when it comes to bills & personal obligations.

I'll aim for a video for Saturday AND Sunday, but if the stars align and I manage to get content recorded early tomorrow, I MIGHT post a video towards t...

AN UNEXPECTED COLLABORATION... STUDIO YURAKI ANIMATED THIS?!

Seeing FrostNova brought me to tears... apparently, I'm STILL not over what happened. I doubt I ever will come to terms with it, that's how much of an impact it had on me!

I might have outgrown Casey Lee Williams, but even I can be proud of this collabor...

(Arknights) MONKEY MAJIK [Running In The Dark] Reaction

WHO IS MONKEY MAJIK?! I WAS NOT READY FOR DANCING KAL'TSIT!!

Seeing Amiya, Ch'en, and Kal'tsit dance just makes me unbelievably happy, these silly moments let me briefly forget about the depressing main story. Plus, who wouldn't smile at their dance moves, they were straight GROOVING!

Also, I'm in love with this a...

SIESTA, HERE I COME... IT'S PARTY TIME!! WHO IS YELLOW CLAW?!

Swimsuit Ch'en answered my prayers... I am beyond "down bad" for the Monster Inspector of the LGD, it's actually crazy how much I've come to like Ch'en since her first introduction!

I do wish we could've seen Swire & Hoshiguma in swimsuits as well.....

THE TOUR OF TERRA BEGINS... WHAT HAVE I GOTTEN MYSELF INTO?!

Kjerag, the Nation of Ice, has been featured and I can safely say this piqued my interest in the country! Who is Pramanix the Saintess? Who is Kjera? What deity/religion do they serve?!

I can't wait to see visit more countries, meet dozens of new charact...

HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD STARSET BEFORE?!

Where it all began for Arknights... can't believe how different it is from what I've seen as an anime only!

PS: Only just realized, STARSET sounds similar to (early) Linkin Park / Self Deception, that explains why I IMMEDIATELY fell in love with this song... it's become a fu...

Small Content Delay

Currently dealing with pain in my mouth, either tooth or jaw, but it's pretty annoying (and painful) right now so I've been avoiding recording to let it heal as quickly as possible. Only really began around Friday, may take another day or two to calm down (I hope) but I can tell it'd affect my content if I tried to push throu...

COMPOSED BY KEVIN PENKIN?! WHAT IS THE BREAK THE ICE EVENT ABOUT?!

I'm still 50/50 on what I believe this OST is about, but I do want to learn more about this character & see if that would change how I interpret the lyrics! I'll admit though, I didn't expect this to be as dark as it was, the title made it seem like ...

HILARIOUSLY CHAOTIC 🤣

Okay, yeah, I'm sold. I can't wait to watch this mini-series, learn more about the world of Terra, and see what chaos U-Official will be roped into!

Recording Setup Update

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to quickly update y'all on what's happening behind the scenes... I bought a 2nd monitor (finally) and spent a while yesterday rearranging my desk/cords to accommodate it. I had to adjust my lights & primary monitor, but I already love having the second monitor around. I should've bought thi...

WHAT IS ANNE OF GREEN GABLES?! MUST PROTECT ANNE!

I've NEVER read the original children's novel, so enjoy my "anime only" perspective as we follow the life of Anne Shirley. I daresay I've already fallen under the MC's spell... seriously, what a pleasant surprise! I'm so glad I gave this show a chance.

Super Cube S1 Episode 1 Reaction

THE ULTIMATE UNIVERSE SYSTEM?! WHAT AM I WITNESSING?!

Could this be 2025's best fight scene? Cause that was straight up 10/10 animation, the sakuga went INSANE... did they get Vincent Chanzard to animate a few cuts?! I ain't ready if the action will only get crazier going forward!

Don't sleep on this show, it's sh...

Spring 2025 Anime Reactions

COMING SOON!

Only just started recording reactions to new shows, so it may take a couple days for those videos to be posted here, but the goal is to remain 1-2 episodes behind (AT MOST, I'd prefer to stay caught up if I can swing it).

Other content like Arknights is still planned, yes, I won't neglect it since I w...

A GLIMPSE INTO THE MIND OF W?!

How will W change the world? What's her true goal? Will she betray the Reunion (or Talulah) as I've theorized?! No amount of speculation will likely predict everything this "W"-ildcard plans to do, but damn it, I am so excited to see her again in the main story!
