"Witch Hat Atelier‘s first cour grabbed me from the start with its animation and sense of wonder. It has the feel of an old-school fairy tale. Although many wouldn’t consider fairy-tale girls empowered by today’s standards, many female protagonists show high agency for their time period.

Ryota connects this end-game of anime with how detergents are mass produced, except while laundry soaps are daily…"

"Catharsis forms the centerpiece of some stories. When a story aims in this direction, characters and events are portrayed in binary ways, even when they’re both on the “evil” end of the ethical and moral spectrum. While the story tries to make the audience sympathize with the protagonist, the protagonist isn’t good, considering how revenge against their enemies drives them, with that revenge falling into masochism. These types of stories tap into the frustrated zeitgeist: the widening economic disparity, authoritarianism, elitism, and so on. Cathartic stories don’t usually do this in a sophisticated way.
