Anime Review: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (2003)

This review details the characters, plot, ending (with no spoilers), sound design, voice acting, and animation for Fullmetal Alchemist (2003).

I filmed this about two years ago, but finally got around to posting it (I am not so good at this Youtube thing). 

Currently (December 2019) Fullmetal Alchemist can be streamed on Netflix, Hulu, and Cruchyroll. If possible, watch this anime legally to support the many amazing people who worked hard on this amazing anime.

Video Game Review? Pokemon Sun and Moon

     Some of you will remember a post I did on Pokemon Sun/Moon back in May. This is the video review that was sparked by that!

     Yes, I know I'm super late to the party with this. But I wanted to share some thoughts! Also, stay tuned for a cute/funny video collaboration that Kay and I did together!

     Gotta love how my face is cut in half in this thumbnail. But also! Here is the funny spoof video we did, for your access and enjoyment.

Book Review: Dead Men Don't Crochet by Betty Hetchman Video

     I literally bought this book because it had crochet patterns and recipes in the back.
