Laithwaites mismanages expectations by describing this Iron Maiden-branded wine as a collector’s item. It’s not. It’s a paper wrapper, albeit a good one, around a cost-effective and pretty darn tasty red wine!
A review of Blue Lock the Movie – Episode Nagi
I watched Blue Lock on the big cinema screen and that’s still pretty rare for an anime. However, I haven’t seen the anime series, and I don’t particularly like sports anime. That’s a bit of a risk! Now, the good news is that Blue Lock the Movie is good. You don’t need to know anything […]

Sentimental sap in the best possible way: A review of The Concierge
You might want to know that Japanese celebs do many animal voices. I also got to see the feature-length show on the big screen here in Europe, and I see press coverage that says Crunchyroll will/did so a cinema release in the States.
