Beautiful world of Shogi (Part II): Pieces and their moves
Welcome back for another lesson about Shogi, this time we move from past into present to see what pieces are on the board and how they move.
Beautiful world of Shogi (Part I): Introduction and history
My journey with Shogi started several years ago. I live in Czech Republic - a small country in the middle of Europe. As our country, our conventions tends to be on the smaller scale and most of the time, you can visit all the panels you want and even have some downtime between them. It happened on one anime / japanese…
Land of the Rising Sun - Part 4
We already had the chance to see Mt. Fuji twice, but both times we had terrible weather, so we saw nothing. That happened even on the evening when we arrived to Fujikawaguchiko. What surprise was, when the next day we woke up to sunny day with almost no clouds. After quick breakfast we went to Kachi Ropeway which…
Land of the Rising Sun - Part 3
This area was one of the places I wanted to visit the most in Japan. Not only Kamakura (鎌倉) is a small city full of temples and shrines so it’s sometimes called the Kyoto of Eastern Japan, but lot of anime series took place in the near vicinity of the city, esp. around Enoshima (江の島) - an island just off the coast…
Stínolez’s Seasonal Roundup [Fall 2018]
Who would thought it has been already two years, since I started writing these seasonal roundups? The time sure flies. I always had at least around ten shows to present you, but this year it will be the shortest roundup I ever made with only four shows on the list. The rest of the shows are continuing in the following…
Land of the Rising Sun - Part 2
It’s hard to describe my first impressions of Kyoto as crowd of people swallowed us immediately after we exited train at the Kyoto Station. Our accommodation was not so far away and our host was nice to let us leave luggage there, despite arriving few hours before check-in. Without the extra baggage we set up to…
Land of the Rising Sun - Part 1
I’ve dreamed about going to Japan for a long time. I don’t remember the very first impulse, but my love for anime and manga only made the wish stronger. Finally, this year the dream came true. It was Saturday 1st of September 7 a.m., when I was sitting with my wife at Prague Airport waiting for a plane. Nearly 23…

Stínolez’s Seasonal Roundup [Summer 2018]
The summer is finally over and I can freely walk outside again. It’s always the time of the year, when I think I’ll melt, if I go outside, which doesn’t work well with the fact, I have to go there every workday just to go to the office. But that’s the hardship of the adulthood - you have to make money to survive and…
Stínolez's study: Anime influence
There have been a lot of studies on the relationship between human behaviour and the media. Most of them are usually concerned more with negative effects such as causing violence or some other behaviour disorders like eating disorder to name at least one. Today, I’d like to talk more about positive effects the media…
Stínolez’s Seasonal Roundup [Spring 2018]
I raise my eyes while casually playing DanMachi - MEMORIA FREESE. Only moment later I finally realize what I see. It’s the calendar, which indicate the end of the Spring 2018 Anime Season. I calmly open my Crunchyroll queue to go through the list, when ... Fuck! I still have 11 episodes of this show? 4 of another…
Stinolez's Season Review [Winter 2018]
It’s again the time of the year, when we are slowly coming from one season to another, turning back and reviewing what we saw and in what we invested time past few months. Since there will be again quite a lot of shows to cover, to make this little bit easier to digest, I didn’t include synopsis for the shows (go and…

This was a new thing introduced into the CR Anime Awards this year. To compare it to the last year, where the winners were…
Stínolez’s Seasonal Roundup [Fall 2017]
Another season and another seasonal roundup from me. Format of it didn’t change and as last two seasons I’m not including synopsis of the shows - you can go and search for it on MyAnimeList.net or any other similar site. This time it will be shorter list, than usual as I didn’t end up watching as many shows as I…
