Still trying to figure out where to restart after real life intruded on the Summer season… But I guess it’s best to begin at a beginning, and that’s where we stand. Hit the jump, and let’s take a look at what’s coming up for Fall 2019!
A beginner bowl of Ramen

An update, looking forward, and some mid-season reviews.
So anyhow, I have managed to catch up on a few anime… Some I’m watching and some we’re watching. Since we’re coming up on mid-season, I decided to go with a few quick season reviews rather than try to review a ton of individual episodes.

With a heavy heart.
If you follow my Twitter, you no doubt saw the news… My mother passed away unexpectedly on Thursday. So, for now, I’m on indefinite hiatus.
This is… especially hard because my Dad died a few years back. And my other parents (my in laws) before that.
The funeral is the week after next, and then I go into the annual madness of the Kitsap County Fair… So the hiatus will likely last at least through the end of August. I have a few editorial pieces I may work on as my head allows, but I make no promises.
Bear with me folks, it’s a rough time but I will be back despite all the crazy in my life. This blog, this community, is an important part of my life.
