Sword Art Online: Alicization updated its opening

It’s been almost two months since Sword Art Online: Alicization introduced us to a new opening song and sequence. Since then it has already been updated once, with even more polished visuals and a new Eugeo vs Bercouli scene. But since that scene was pretty much the only new scene of the opening, I didn’t felt the need to make a new post about the changes. This time, however there are a lot more new scenes. I will break...

Top 5 musical performances in anime

When anime inspires you to… draw

As a child I loved doodling stuff into notebooks and writing down my imaginary sports results, entertainment shows, and similar stuff. But by high school I more or less stopped doing it. I “grew up” you may say. Fast forward to Summer 2017 and I suddenly got hugely into Japanese “cartoons”. So much that I even felt like drawing again and improving my skills.
