He who fights with monsters should be careful lest he thereby become a monster. And if thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee.~Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil Rewatching some of the episodes with my flatmate the other day, reminded me why I love anime and manga this much.

I stumbled across this anime by luck, actually. The name sounded interesting, looked at the synopsis and saw that the show has samurai in it, hence it was enough reasoning for me.

Its manga started being published in 2009 by Satsuki Yoshino. Anime aired on television in October, 2013. Barakamon consists of 12 episodes in total …
It was obvious which anime I would choose to write on for my first review; actually I wanted to think about this particular anime by writing something about it. Nodame Cantabile. The term ‘cantabile’ means ‘song-like’ and it provides a flexible way of playing in terms of tempo and measure. No other term would describe Nodame better …
