Spoiler Time Sunday: Horimiya’s FAQ

Hori-san to Miyamura-kun, the anime and manga that you soon discover is very cool and want to know more about.

Welcome, dearies! 🧁

A new Sunday, a new Spoiler.

Why Horimiya? Because I was looking for a photo and saw these questions that made me snort and answer in my head, and so here we are… was that convincing? Lol. It’s partly true, the other half of that is that I like talking about stuff that I like a lot and have watched a bunch of times, sue me! 😅

Anyways… I hope you are here because you want some spoilers about Kyouko and Izumi because I am going all in without a filter. 🤭

Friday Flashback: Kuroko no Basuke – Anime

Have you watched Kuroko’s Basket or Kuroko No Basuke? I have and I would recommend to watch a second time, so today’s Friday Flashback will be dedicated to this Sports Anime.

Title: Kuroko’s Basketball (黒子のバスケ, Hepburn: Kuroko no Basuke)

Genre: Sports, Shonen, Young Adult

Manga by: Tadatoshi Fujimaki

Anime by: Shunsuke Tada

Basketball Team: Seirin High (誠凛高校, Seirin Kōkō)

Hello, dearies! ⛹️ I realised recently that I don’t have one for Kuroko no Basuke, which is odd since I really liked this one.

Have you ever heard of or watched this anime? I hadn’t until Crunchyroll and Netflix put it in my face as recommendation because I had watched… I have no idea what. Honestly, I don’t why the algorithm thought it would be good for me to watch, perhaps because I watched Dragon Ball? That could be it.

Anyway, I watched and liked it a lot. It’s fun, more so if you like High School, School Life, and Basketball. And Seinen then you definitely can watch this one.

Spoiler Time Sunday: NANA (Anime)

NANA (Anime) is a friendship/love story that suddenly turns traumatic and unbelievable. The more you watch this anime, the more invested you become in it! It’s now available on Netflix, but you can also watch it on Crunchyroll.

Oh wow… I’m not even remotely ready to talk about this one.

Anime: NANA

Genres: Romance. Josei. Drama. Music. So much drama.

Director: Morio Asaka

Originally a Manga by Ai Yazawa-sensei

You can watch it on Netflix or Crunchyroll.

I’ll try to keep it short, and to the point.

NANA description:

Nana “Hachi” Komatsu hopes that moving to Tokyo will help her make a clean start and ~~leave her capricious love life behind her~~. Nana Osaki, who arrives in the city at the same time, has plans to score big in the world of rock’n’roll. Although these two young women come from different backgrounds, they quickly become best friends in a whirlwind world of sex, music, fashion, gossip and all-night parties! Anxious to get into a Tokyo groove, both women are on the prowl for a funky and cheap place to live. But inexpensive apartments in Japan’s capital city are hard to find. Thank goodness each Nana has a clique of cool friends willing to help out. Too bad these friends are a little wiggy!

Spoiler Time Sunday: Card Captor Sakura and Sasaki Rika

Hello, dearies! 🪄

Welcome to a new Spoiler Time Sunday, I had been trying to keep up with this one every week and I hope you are enjoying the little snippets of spoilers from different media, books, manga, movies. Mostly books, yes.

For today, I remembered one from Card Captor Sakura, the Manga, and the anime as well but I’ll focus on the Manga for the sake of accuracy.

Friday Flashback: Fruits Basket (2001)

Prepare for some serious ranting.

Fruits Basket (Anime 2001)

Where can I watch it? On Crunchyroll.

Hello, dearies! 🐾

I recently, barely, finished watching Fruits Basket’s original anime (or I would say the crazy 2001 version).

This anime makes no sense.

I’ll jump right into this one. Expect some rambling ahead, and some spoilers if you don’t know about Fruits Basket.

Fruits Basket – Manga Review… sort of

The anime sent me on this path… and it was worth it. 😍

Title: Fruits Basket

(フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto) also abbreviated as Furuba or Fruba (フルバ)

Author: Natsuki Takaya

Genres: Fantasy, romantic comedy, slice of life

Original date: July 1998 – November 2006

In 2015, it began the Fruits Basket: Collector’s Edition (愛蔵版フルーツバスケット) where 2 volumes were compiled into one. Same story. But there are now 12 volumes.

Hello, dearies! 🎆🎐

Welcome to a new rambling about a Manga. I finished Fruits Basket this month, and found it quite interesting.

What shocked me the most about reading and finishing the Manga was that I knew where it was going because I’d watched the anime (2019 version), but I was still into it, it didn’t feel like a repeat, but at the same, it was a sort of comfort read, I don’t know if you know what I mean, but it was nice. And I liked it of course.
