Ichigo VS Yusuke (Bleach VS Yu Yu Hakusho) | DEATH BATTLE!
The bad boys of anime take a break from fighting demons and souls, and kick each other's asses.
Thoughts in a spoiler thread, but the result of this comes down to one being a generation or two after the other.

HeroGirlsVT made a really nice analysis of Yuri on Ice.
She talks about the theme of Love and how each of the skaters expresses it during the course of the series.
I was so impressed with the writing of Yuri on Ice, especially that episode 10 revelation. I liked how it focused on the developing of characters emotionally as well as physically. I also enjoyed the theme of learning to trust others and yourself. Worth a watch to the end.

Cognitive Behavioral Theory is all about changing how ya do things. Not so much about what happened in the past. But changing what we are doing now, that dont help us or hold us back.
I've been watching some video essays from Be Kind Rewind, and I highly recommend them!
I've got a big backlog to go through, even just picking and choosing, but I can shout out her videos on The Wizard of Oz at Sphere, as well as her deep dive into the meaning and influence and place of Miss Piggy (and the Muppets more generally).

Weekend mornings are for filming short-form video essays! This time I'm taking gen-z's video format to talking about the positive sign of people in the US talking about George Orwell's 1984 right now, and how we can read deeper into it to understand how a well-known critique of the Soviet Union actually applies equally to the USA of today.

Here is a video showing how #sinners 2025 and the TV version of Interview with a vampire have parallels especially when race intersects vampirism.
thinking about a desktop documentary as a project for this upcoming year. also something collaborative with people from fedi who would like to work on an art project.
this format caught my attention immediately when discovering Machines in Flames (2022) https://videos.parleur.net/w/3BZujYsBZNdCCtZj7GY6FN , have been admiring some drafts I got to see that came out at the end of a few art residencies from small art practitioners/art students that have shown them during events around here (but did not realize it was a thing then) ,
and been down a bit of a rabbit hole these past days (the post featuring "Safari(Browser)_The_Nature_ofmy_Computer.mov" from a few days ago)
also, it might (it seems from here anyway) be one thing I could do with the (limited) means available to me right now

Best Video Essay (new category!): In Defense of Inefficiency by Zoe Bee
We live in a world that celebrates efficiency as a great virtue, especially in our jobs but also in how we spend our free time. Iâve often felt in the past that every moment of idle dreaming or hanging around or doing nothing is âwasted timeâ that couldâve been spent on a chore, a hobby, a creative project, or organizing an event. Yet as Zoe Bee argues eloquently in this video essay, there are many things that are easily lost when we focus on efficiency too much. In fact, in many cases focusing on efficiency is an absurd concept (for example, how do you enjoy a piece of music more efficiently?) As a teacher, Zoe takes a lot of examples of how âefficiencyâ can cause harm from education, but the lessons themselves are certainly applicable in a far wider context.
I can highly recommend watching the full 1h video, since all the tangents and detours are a nice illustration of how inefficiency can improve communication. But there is also a 5 minute version that is more efficient but worse in precisely the ways that the video explains. And if you canât get enough, there are plenty of other great videos on Zoeâs channel.
As a little bonus, I also want to recommend two more books that are both celebrations of inefficiency in their own right: Momo by Michael Ende (better known for writing The Neverending Story) which is about a young girl with the superpower of being very good at listening who fights mysterious time-stealing creatures with antimemetic powers, and Nothing To Grasp by Joan Tollifson which is a non-fiction book about non-dual insight that just celebrates everything that is, exactly how it is.
