01.14.22 – I Wanted to Be Lazy Today

Today was a bit of a lazy day for me. Well, sort of. I mean, I still got things done. I went to the store and bought some groceries. I got gas for Enzo, so I would not have to worry about it in the middle of the week. I finished my laundry. I threw away the trash. I washed the dishes. And I even cooked. So I felt pretty accomplished despite feeling lazy. And for the most part, I did a lot of these things begrudgingly. I mean, I did not have a choice. No one else will do them.

I did read a lot of Circus of the Damned last night. Okay, I said last night that I was having issues with the MC. Yes, because her flaws are annoying. But there were some chapters in the book that I enjoyed and I even found myself smiling. You cannot blame me, I enjoy meet-cutes for couples. And Anita meeting Richard was no different. I enjoyed their conversation in the car while Anita was dropping him and his friend off at his house after some “exciting” night at the circus. I liked how Richard asked her on a date – well, to go caving for a first date. And I like the phone call that Anita made to change the plans from caving to a Halloween party and then settling on doing the caving thing the weekend after that. I also like how Anita kept on denying that she never thinks of Jean-Claude yet he always seems to be in her head. So yeah. The action scenes were really good too. Sure, those scenes can get a bit graphic but I love them.

I also read today as well. But just webtoons, to be honest. I am planning to read some more of Circus of the Damned tonight. And if permitted, read some Heaven Official’s Blessing. I was not able to pick it up last night. I was pretty engrossed with Circus.

My hun and I got to hang out. We watched some anime and a movie (surprising).

Green Snake. I cannot complain really. This animated movie is pretty decent. It did not blow our minds or anything like that. But it was decent. The story flowed well, the premise was good, and the animation was top-notch. The thing that annoyed me though was the fact that we were about halfway through the movie and I realized that the movie is a sequel to another animated movie called White Snake. And I got annoyed because Netflix did not have any disclaimer about it being a sequel. After a simple search online, we found out that the original title of this movie was White Snake 2: The Tribulation of the Green Snake. But Netflix decided to just call it Green Snake. Regardless, it was still a solid animated film. Not sure if you need to watch the first movie to appreciate this one. But my hun and I are planning on watching White Snake soon.

Bleach: The Lost Substitute Shinigami Arc. I am so suspicious of Ginjo. I understand that the objective was to have Ichigo regain his shinigami powers back so that the Fullbringers can be normal people but why. And how does awakening Ichigo’s Fullbring help with regaining his shinigami powers? Also, I am still confused about Tsukishima. His motives are still unclear.

Darwin’s Game. Well, this anime is getting interesting for sure. I do enjoy Kaname’s subtle character development. I mean he is too soft anymore. Still not corrupted enough. But I am liking his support system in the game. The Analyst is OP. And they introduced Sui and Souta.

Kotaro Lives Alone. I’m glad my hun is liking this anime. He said that one episode seems to put you on an emotional rollercoaster. I mean, I cannot blame him. One of the reasons why I love this anime is the way it got emotions out of me.
