Welcome to the Monday Anime Round-up, a weekly series where I talk about the anime I watched over the weekend. This is week three! Oh my gosh! I've been so on top of things! Which, of course, means that one of the series I was watching is done until 2021 (Moriarty the Patriot) and these last two aired their final episodes. I'm not sure when/if we're getting more Hypnosis Mic and Jujutsu Kaisen will return mid-January 2021.

My favorite thing about this entire situation is that Hilaria Baldwin went into her Instagram stories, said she was done posting for a while and going to log off, and then posted like two hours later.

Demon Slayer: Mugen Train opened in Japan back in October and has had nothing but good reception since. It even broke the first-day opening record with 1.2 billion yet (11.3 million USD) and went on to gross 4.6 billion yen (44 million) during its opening weekend. From there it's just been nonstop.

One of the most admirable things about YA fiction is its ability to provide some of the most heartwarming, imaginative, and sweet-as-pie escapism. And during a heavy year like 2020, teens and adults alike found solace in the YA novels that graced shelves (both physically and virtually).

Emerald Fennell’s new feature film Promising Young Woman is visually stunning, tightly written, and even though it masquerades as a rape revenge fantasy horror film (which it is), it’s more so a love story. I don’t mean that it’s a romantic comedy—it is certainly not that—but it’s a film about the family you choose, your lifelong friends.

It’s the end of 2020, and like most of you, I have spent this terrible year swaddled in blankets and rewatching all of my old favorites in an attempt to wring every last ounce of comfort from them.

Are you introverted? Are you shy? Do you perhaps wear glasses? Are you constantly harangued at work by an ill-intentioned boss or harassed by men when you walk home at night? Do you yearn for the power and confidence to stand up for yourself and take what you're rightfully owed? Do you have a sneaking suspicion that you would look amazing in a skin-tight catsuit?

Wonder Woman 1984 isn’t just one of the few superhero movies to have a female lead with the titular heroine, a.k.a. Diana Prince (Gal Gadot). Even in a market already saturated with superhero fare, it’s one of the few to feature a female supervillian. Even juicier—and, potentially, hilarious—is that it’s the Cheetah. How delicious to have a villain who is also a cat, often a symbol of femininity itself?
