  Today's poem is inspired by the underrated 90s shojo anime, Oniisama e. Did you know the creator is the same as the Rose of Versailles? It's Riyoko Ikeda. I also like the Rose of Versailles! I will write a poem for that anime too sometime.  Poem: Hey best friend I never thought that Coming to this prestigious school Would entail Joining a sorority I never thought that This school Was run by a mean girl Actually I take it back What that queen bee did to our student mentor Was the definition of evil No wonder our other student mentor Was trying to save Mentor 1 All while she had To battle demons of her own Even our new best friend  Was swimming in A void of darkness One day I wish All of us girls Will be equal

  It's been a while since I did one of these! Today's poem is inspired by Revolutionary Girl Utena! The creator is Be-Papas. Above is the opening. Poem: "Let’s create A new world Where we girls Rule the world Aren’t you tired Of being tossed around From person to person? Or can the Rose Bride Have no thought or feelings Of her own Oh Goddess! Let me save you Or is it possible Only you can save yourself?"

  Today's poem was inspired by the classic magical girl/mecha series by CLAMP, Magic Knight Rayearth!  The video above is the full song of the first opening. Poem: We could feel it in our hearts We could feel it in our soul We could feel it in our minds We were the chosen ones Chosen to save this world This world bent on willpower But we didn’t know What would be ahead of us A world full of turmoil Of heartbreak Things aren’t always what they seem We might be controlling giant robots Called rune gods But we are not angels As Lantis said “If Cephiro were truly beautiful The flowers would bloom All on their own.”

  Today's poem is inspired by Ai Yazawa's most underrated work, Gokinjo Monogatari! Above is the opening.  I watched the anime many, many years ago on YouTube (before they got taken down) and really loved it! Now that the manga has been translated in English and released by Viz Media, the series will gain so many new fans. Someday I might get the whole manga too and reread the whole story. And read the parts that weren't in the anime. Here's the poem: Forget about those guys you think are cute What’s cute are these cute clothes I am making! Don’t forget the insignia Of the angel holding a strawberry On each one What? It’s cute clothes for teenage girls But you’re making children’s clothes? And you’re making clothes for stuffed animals? What’s my friend since childhood and next-door neighbor up to? I dunno, I think he’s makin’ walkie talkies His himbo friend just sketches people His punk friend just makes video games Ugh, is that popular pretty gi...

The last time I made a post talking about anime was way over a year ago! I have sooo many favorite shows, and I want to talk more about them. Here are parts 1 and 2 if you missed them or want to see them again. 1. Several of the Pretty Cure series.  PreCure is a magical girl franchise has been going on since 2004, and every season is a different story. So far my favorite seasons that I have seen are: HeartCatch Precure (the first one I watched!), Delicious Party Precure, Star Twinkle Precure, and Soaring Sky PreCure. Every season follows the same formula: an alternate magical world gets in trouble with some bad guy and their minions. Some magical being (usually an animal-like fairy) comes to our world to seek out the PreCure, the teenage girls from our world who become magical to fight the monsters the bad guy tries to attack our world with. As more monsters appear, they become more powerful, our protagonists have power-ups, and then they defeat the big bad! The series overall ha...
