Erased: Time Travel and The Absent Butterfly

August 31, 2018 Therese Deppe Comments Off on Erased: Time Travel and The Absent Butterfly

Barakamon: The Search for Creative Authenticity

August 25, 2018 Therese Deppe Comments Off on Barakamon: The Search for Creative Authenticity

One Punch Man: Zany Comedy That Packs a Punch

July 3, 2018 Therese Deppe Comments Off on One Punch Man: Zany Comedy That Packs a Punch

June 19, 2018 Therese Deppe Comments Off on Your Name (Kimi No Na Wa): A Persistent Yearning of the Heart

Deathnote: Vengeance is Mine

September 12, 2017 Therese Deppe Comments Off on Deathnote: Vengeance is Mine

September 5, 2017 Therese Deppe Comments Off on Understanding Purgatory Through Haibane Renmei

Amanchu!: Finding Your Passion

August 15, 2017 Therese Deppe Comments Off on Amanchu!: Finding Your Passion
