10th Post: Mahoo Shoojo Madoka Magica まほうしょうじょまどか☆まぎか


こんにちは！This week I would like to talk about a new anime that I watched recently, titled Mahoo Shoojo Madoka Magica (まほうしょうじょまどか☆まぎか). Since I love Sailor Moon, I decided to give another anime of the same genre a chance! This show follows Madoka (まどか), a junior high school student, who is offered a wish by a mysterious creature named Kyubey. In exchange for this wish, she and other girls in the series become magical girls who fight monsters known as witches. At first the show is like Sailor Moon, very cutesy and normal. However, the story takes a dark turn when one of Madoka's friends is murdered, showing how the life of a magical girl isn't as simple as it seems. I absolutely loved this show and I recommend it to anyone that enjoys dark stories/and or magical girls like Sailor Moon, Precure, or Card Captor Sakura.

    This sounds like such an interesting anime! I've also started watching a new anime called Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, which is also an anime that explores themes of magic combat and friendships. Anime gives us many inspiring life lessons, doesn't it?

  こんにちは! Hello! わたしはWolfe Malloryです! My name is Mallory Wolfe, and I am super excited to be learning Japanese this semester! I have been studying Chinese for many years, starting in high school, and through that experience I have been curious as to how different languages influence one another. Through the overlap with kanji, I have always been interested in Japanese and wanted to learn more about the shared history and overlap between the two languages!  Besides my desire to learn more about the similarities between Chinese and Japanese, I have always loved Japanese culture, especially the fashion and anime aspects. I absolutely adore Japanese fashion, including styles such as the gyaru and jirai kei styles. In both of these styles, I have always admired their bold use of makeup, accessories, and self-expression, which makes each look super creative and unique! As for anime, my favorite genre is shoujo, which are often filled with light hearted stories that focus on emotions ...

3rd Post: Sailor Moon

こんにちは！Hello! If I had to recommend a Japanese show, I would recommend watching Sailor Moon ( 美少女戦士セーラームーン) ! Sailor Moon was first released as a manga in 1991, created by Naoko Takeuchi, eventually being adapted into a very famous anime known throughout the world shortly after. The story follows Usagi Tsukin o ( 月野 うさぎ) , a clum sy yet cheerful middle school student living in Tokyo, Japan, who learns that she is Sailor Moon, a magical guardian who is destined to protect the world from malevolent forces. Along with the other guardians, Sailor Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus, the girls learn about love, friendship, and responsibility. Even for those who can’t understand Japanese, the interactions the characters have with one another, their emotions, and the bubbly, colorful animation make the story very easy to follow. I have been watching Sailor Moon for years and it holds a special place in my heart! I definitely recommend watching it! ありがとうございます!
