A column for Whovians by a Whovian! Special thanks to Sofia C. for sharing her fandom! I am a die hard Whovian. I love it all; from the very beginning with William Hartnell all the way to the current, Peter Capoldi. When I hear someone say “Doctor” I instantly think “Doctor Who?” and all of […]

Do you remember that awful, awful song by Rebecca Black? The one that kept extolling the glory of Friday? This amv by editor Ileia features a morose, contemplative cover of the same song and sets it against the gritty, bleak background imagery of Serial Experiments: Lain.

I initially fell in love with ONE OK ROCK when I heard their song, The Beginning, at the end of the Rurouni Kenshin live action movie.

Future Card Buddyfight’s Opening Brings Back that 90’s Magic
I haven’t heard an anime opening like this since the late 90’s!!
