Bingewatch and Chill: Aggretsuko Season 3!

 Okay- I've decided since I review tv shows on Saturdays usually... I'm just going to name this post "Bingewatch and Chill" so... that's my weekly tv post! I don't always watch Netflix... sometimes it's other streaming services so... it's going to be bingewatch and chill. 

Aggretsuko is kind of a special show for me because that's the first thing my boyfriend and I talked about when we were on Ok Cupid. I had just watched it at the time I signed up for it and I had just changed the "Last show I bingewatched" to Aggretsuko with a picture of Retsuko on my profile and then he messaged me saying "Aggretsuko was amazing!" So... yeah! This is a special show for us and we watched it together with sore stomachs from eating at Applebee's... 

ANYWAY the season itself was really interesting. We thought it seemed a little less serious and a little less sad than the second season and the animation looked a little bit different. We don't really know if the show had budget cuts because of Covid or if they were trying to rush it because it looked a little more simple than it used to- but we really liked how it looked. It made sense with the tone of the season somehow too... which was overall very silly until the penultimate episode where things got more serious. 

So in this season Retsuko is addicted to an online VR game in which she has a sexy unicorn boyfriend. And she spends all of her money on things for the game... and then she backs into a guys car and ends up becoming an accountant for an Idol band he manages and then eventually joins the band herself after he heard her metal vocals at the karaoke bar that she frequents and the band records at. 

All of the new characters in this season are really cute and really fun... plus we see different sides of some of the characters from the earlier seasons. Gori, Washimi, Haida, Fenneko and even Tadano have their own archs that really make this season amazing. 

The last episode ended in a way that... was a bit of a cliffhanger but also not really. I thought it was wrapped up nicely compared to the one shocking moment that was the one scary and serious moment of the season... which I believe ended the penultimate episode. It gave us a happy ending that gives us something to look forward to if the show comes back for another season. Which I think it can! 

I think that is everything I want to say without spoiling too much. Overall this is definitely the best season yet- I really felt like we got to know each of the characters and when that moment hits... it's really suspenseful and the way they do it is heartwarming kind of. Just a great show overall! 

Bye!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
