Why is this site here?

This blog is a place to place ramblings and stray concepts about anime. That includes reviews, general discussion about anime as a whole, and discussion of tropes and stuff like that.

Who are you?

I’m a Canadian currently in Alberta. By day, I’m a PhD student.  By night, I run through anime, video games, and tabletop games. I love to write but hate my own voice (and also suck at articulating in real time), so the internet is a perfect forum for me to throw my thoughts down.

Focusing on this blog’s aim a bit more, I am more fascinated in the theoretical. Concepts such as the origin and appeal of moe, or the application of tsundere characters are very unique realms of thought that fascinate me.

So, what is Lain’s First Law?

It’s a cute hybrid anime-science joke. The anime, of course, is Lain (Lain Iwakura) of Serial Experiments Lain. The first law refers to the First Law of Thermodynamics.  Though really, you could pick almost any physical sciences law to put in.  I love these little science jokes.
