Scotland Loves Anime 2023 winners: Jury and Audience split as organisers promise a voting review
There are two winners after Scotland Loves Anime 2024, which is unusual but not unheard of.
That escalated badly! A review of Phoenix: Reminiscence of Flower
The Studio 4°C anime is directed by Shoujirou Nishimi and suits fans of surreal and/or bleak fantasy. The flying evil goose spaceship is just one example.
Men are idiots: A review of Macross Plus (Movie Edition)
I was calling Macross Plus the movie edition “Top Gun in space” in my head long before I heard pretty much everyone else on the Sunday night of Scotland Loves Anime call it the same thing. Ergo, it makes it into the review. However, the male idiots in Top Gun were at least a bit […]

Wholesome and violent: A review of Tekkonkinkreet
Tekkonkinkreet is an English teacher’s delight. There are so many characters, motivations, and subtexts to discuss and dig into. No wonder the boys got buried.
