Hey there, everyone! I’m coming with great news this time!
As you can see in the title of this post, the rights for They Both Die At The End By Adam Silvera had been brought for it to be adapted to a TV series!!! I can’t believe so many great books are being adapted to TV shows, but i’m so so happy, Adam Silvera is one of my favorite authors and i’m really glad he is making it big time.
The book is currently no.1 bestseller on the New York times after it came out 3 years ago.
Apparently Adam will be part on the writing process of the show, which for me it’s a huge YES. Adam has a special way of telling stories and seeing him being part of the ones adapting it will be amazing.
As for the ones adapting the TV show eOne will be responsible and will distribute it worldwide. Other tv shows by this distributor are You Me Her, The Rookie and Designated Survivor.
In Adam’s Words:
“I’m adapting #TheyBothDieAtTheEnd for TV as the creator, screenwriter, and executive producer. Legit dream!! Long road ahead, but Mateo and Rufus’s story has always been about meaningful journeysâI’m ready to go bring my “Before Sunrise meets Black Mirror” series to life.” – Via Twitter, May 6th.
As for me i’m in tears because while reading these news i also discovered More Happy Than Not is being also being adapted this time by HBO MAX, which is huge.
I know i’m a nobody but i’m so so so happy this is happening to Adam because i love him with all my heart and also, can’t wait for an History Is All You Left Me movie đ.
Adam Silvera is a MAGNIFICENT author, you should all give him a try, i can’t decide which book recommend the most so i’ll just recommend them ALL.
So proud of one of the favorite authors of this blog! So Proud of Dear Adam Silvera!
As you can see, this is a very interesing and young group of people, the actors casted are: Yasmin Finney, an actress who was recently casted for What If? (still in development and if i did understand it right it’s not the Marvel’s What if?), alongside newcommers, William Gao, Corinna Brown, Kizzy Edgell, Cormac Hyde-Corrin, Tobie Donovan, and Rhea Norwood. Sebastian Croft known from Games Of Thrones will also be part of the cast.
As far as if goes, it seems like the show it’s taking shape, from what Alice Oseman, the author, says these are very talented actors who want to bring this story to life.
A few months ago i sared with you the news about Netflix adaptating Heartstopper by Alice Oseman (Heartstopper by Alice Oseman Lands Adaptation on Netflix!), back then i said i would be talking about it more when we get more information about it, so here i am once again to let you know the main characters for the show had been casted!
Kit Connor and Joe Locke are the new faces for Nick Nelson and Charlie Spring as it was confirmed by the author and Joe himself!
As you can see them it looks very promising and the cast seems on point.
I do appreacite the fact that these are not two 20 something actors playing teens but they are teens themselves.
I am very excited for everything coming our way (with Shadow and Bones released yesterday, it being already renewed for a second season, the Half Bad adapation coming this way and now also this series!) it seems Netflix is adapating a lot of great stories i can’t wait for any of them!! I’m so happy!
D you read Heartstopper? What is your opinion on the cast of Kit and Joe? Leave your comment down below!
February passed by like a flash, and i feel like i didn’t have enough time to do ANYTHING. I mean, i can’t even remember how i spent these days, i feel like i accomplished nothing.
Let’s see what did i manage this month anyway!
TV Shows
I’m still very obsessed with Wandavision and i can’t wait for it to be Friday every week, all week. It doesn’t help that they may be developing a solo movie for Scarlet Witch because i’m so obsessed with her it’s ridiculous.
I’m also very obsessed with Servant, which got to a point i don’t understand anything going on but still… i love it. It is so freaky nd crazy. It’s great.
Once again my mother go me to watch with her one of her reality shows, Masters of Sewing (maestros de la costura) and it’s addictive. I need to stop visiting my mom, because she always makes me watch this kind of things and i just can’t i can’t believe i end up enjoying this kind of tv show.
Also, i need to catch up with the seasonal anime, i left it all and now i feel guilty for it. Need to come back to them asap!!
MOVIES
I don’t have a favorite of the month, i watched some marvel movies, but it wasn’t the first time for any of them, also all the other movies i watched… weren’t that good… so here goes nothing.
Books
WHAT BIG TEETH by Rose Szabo was my favorite reading of the month. It was such a peculiar reading, i loved it, a lot.
Nothing special, I mostly listened to anime’s openings and endings…
VIDEOGAMES
This is stupid, but i’m totally obsessed with
I bought it as a early present for my birthday and i do nothing but play it. I still wonder if i should’ve choosen Eevee but, I got this one so we’ll never know. It is my first time playing a pokemon game and it is so addictive, i need welp.
Yes, it wasn’t such a productive month and i hate that. I hope March comes with better vibes and energies!!
What were your favorite things of the month?Leave it in the comments down below!
January is almost over so it’s time to wrap up emotions and look back at the stuff i enjoyed this month. I gotta admit, most of my time i was with my family so i didn’t watch much tv shows and such but hey, let’s see what were my favorites of the month!
TV Shows
I’ve heard of this show last year but i didn’t give myself the time to watch it. Julie and the Phantoms was a very nice surprise to discover what a wonderful show it is. I really enjoyed it, i laughed, i cried. It was really a great show to watch. I hope for season 2. And i’m obsessed with the music in it, the songs were beatiful.
I started Wandavision mostly because i truly love Paul Bettany and don’t get me started on Elizabeth Olsen, but it ended up being so a GOOD show. I have a hard time waiting every week for a new episode to come out! Such a fun and extraordinary watch! And omg that forth episode!!!
I really enjoyed the first season of Servant and now the second season has me on edge. I can’t wait every week, I need to know what is gonna happen next!
As I said a spent most of my time with my family and that includes us watching the Spanish version of MasterChef (Junior) which was AWESOME! We enjoyed watching it together so much! That’s the best kind of experiences!
Movies
By far Rent-A-Pal was the best movie i saw this January. Guys, i totally recommend it to you! I don’t wanna talk about it much so i don’t spoil anything, but WOW. I got this recommended by my favorite youtubers (well, they just talked about it haha) but like, it blew my mind.
BOOKS
Guys, FELIX EVER AFTER was everything i needed this month. It was such an amazing book, i admit i had a hard time at some point reading it, but it always happens to me when i’m loving a book too much, i just don’t want it to end.
Clap When You Land was another book that moved me a lot this month. It was written so beautifully i cannot begin to explain how it made me feel. I recommend it to everyone.
MUSIC
You guys, not only the show is great but the songs in it. I’m obsessed.
I went back in time this month A LOT with the songs of Luna Sea. I used to listen to them a ton when i was in my teens and god, Ryuichi Kawamura has the most beautiful voice in the world (in my opinion). Such wonderful music. My most listened to song this month? GRAVITY. Gosh not only their music is epic and the voice is amazing, but the lyrics too… i just can’t.

The other day i was bored and checking if i could find some new anime aside from the ones i’m starting this winter season (I already talked about this in my The Seasonal Anime Crisis of Winter 2021!!! post). When i discovered the horror.
The last movie of the Rebuild of Evangelion was removed from the list of movies coming out this winter.
And i can’t help but wonder WHY?!
Don’t get me wrong, Neon Genesis Evangelion, the anime, the manga and the Rebuild movies are of my absolute favorite pieces of art of all time.
I remember being a child, about 9 years old and since then watching the show. Sure, at the time i had pretty much no idea what was going on the show, i just watched for the mechas and the fact that i felt very in sinc. (pun) with Shinji.
Over the years, and as i grew up i started to understand the human side of the show, and it never stopped fascintating me.
Evangelion has everything.
Evangelion is a world of itself.
Evangelion is a legened and will always be one.
So yeah, there’s the anime, and the manga which both ended years ago but we are still waiting on the freaking ending of the movies.
And you have to understand the date for the last movie of the Rebuild of Evangelion has been changed so many times i lost ount at some point and i cannot remember when it was originally meant to be. The previous movie was released in 2012, so imagine waiting for the last movie for eight, almost nine years.
I understand they are moving the date because of the current state of the world, the corona has ruined the cinemas and they want to make money, but why can’t they sell it or something? So many people are waiting for that god damned movie everyone will watch it if they released it on Youtube (monetized) or if they selled online tickets.
Hell, if they did that with subtitles they’ll make millions.
I’ll pay for 10 tickets if they just give me the opportunity to finally see the end of it.
At the end of the day it feels like the purposfully aren’t releasing the movie. Like, they are afraid the world would forget of the wonder that is Evangelion the moment the movie is out. And let me tell you, it won’t happen.
Not only because the opening song is the most chosen in karaoke places all over Japan, but because it changed so much about anime since its creation back in 1995.
Evangelion is so much more than just an anime.
It just… to me for example Evangelion has been a way of life, watching it every year, buying merchandising, loving the characters, reading the manga over and over, feeling so conected to the characters.
I feel like they should let the movie out and let the story finally finish. Give it the end it deserves.
Sometimes i feel like every time they delay the movie more and more they are taking part of the glory it deserves. Sure, now i have to rewatch the other movies before this one comes out because i do remember them but i want to have them fresh in my mind… 8 years is a very long time to wait for a sequel.
And no, i do not believe many movies deserve you watching them after they made you wait for them so long.
So, could they please, please, please, already release the last part of this story? I promise, people won’t forget about it in a very very long time even if you do so.
Let Evangelion have an Honorable Discharge for the world, let it go, and become the legend it was always meant to be.
I don’t know how many of you watch anime so i”ll explain a bit how it works with new anime. Each season (fall, winter, spring and summer) new anime are released. Some anime last one season, meaning it will have about 12-13 episodes or it could last more than one season, it could last two seasons and be about 24-26 epiosdes or be like one piece and still be going after years and years.
Normally i wait until the anime is over to watch them, but lately i spend a lot of time on tumblr and they manage to spoil every single thing (they spoiled The Rise Of Skywalker a DAY before i watched the movie), so i decided to watch the anime as they are released. The problem is this season i have too many anime i want to watch!
The last season of Shingeki no Kyojin (aka Attack on Titan) which will be over before the manga is, so i don’t know if it will hae the same ending or the ending will be open so people read the real ending. It s very confusing. Bu it is soo good. If you haven’t watched it yet i totally recommend it.
The second season of Yakusoku no Neverland (aka The Promised Neverland) I don’t know if it is a filler season of if it will follow the manga, but i HAVE to watch it.
The second season of Dr. Stone: Stone Wars. An anime I watched last year and was just AMAZING, so i have very high hopes for this season.
The second seasons of Beastars, Legoshi and Haru are back in this anime about antropomorphus animals that surprised me with its first season because it was GREAT.
The second season of Hataraku Saibou! (aka Cells at Work) this very educative and fun anime surprised me very much last year. I totally like it.
HoriMiya because i liked the OVAS so i have high hopes of an anime based on this story.
Hataraku Saibou Black a spin off of Cells at Work, i don’t know the difference aside of the fact that the main characters are genre swtiched, but i won’t miss it.
Non Non Biyori NonStop, the third season of the Higurashi No Naku No Koro Ni if nothing bad happened there.
Yami Shibai, the eight season of this creepiest anime i watch. Love it.
Anime continuing their run (more than on season on)
Jujutsu Kaisen, a supernatural anime (i can’t miss it), full of demons and such.
Detective Conan, i’ve been watching this anime since i was 9 years old and it is still running, almost 1000 episodes on and still strong.
Higurashi No Naku No Koro Ni Gou, when will these characters stop dying and be able to move one from that faithful summer… nobody knows.
Hanyou No Yashahime, the continuation of Inuyasha per se.. with his daugther and the daugthers of Sesshomaru, i can’t miss it, i adore Inuyasha.
Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time, the last movie of the rebuild of Evangelion.
I didn’t see if Digimon Adventure 2020 is continuing, but i hope it does.
And that’s all… That’s all the anime i have t watch this season… wish me luck!
The days are getting colder by the minute but my heart is full of warmth, as Netflix announced they’ll be developing more UK projects.
As it was revealed yesterday in the Variety website (link here), Netflix will be working on some new and promising series such as Man vs Bee and Lockwood & co.
These news are especially important to me since one of the new projects being developed by Netflix is no other than a personal favorite HALF LIFE by Sally Green.
I came to know about the news from one of the persons in charge of the project; Joe Barton who will be the writer. He posted the news on his twitter account;
According to the news this far the series will have 8 episodes of 60 minutes each.
We still not sure if it will be only about the first book Half Bad or if it will be the whole trilogy (but i hope it’s only about Half Bad and then for it to be renewed for the adaptation of the next two books).
However these news came to me to brighten my days and now i can only wait for it to become a reality.
As Half Life is one of my favorite trilogies of all time (if not the favorite) i may be bringing some more news as they develop.
This is a safe space where i’ll be processing some thoughts… it may come back and it may not… but right now i need to get this thoughts out so here it goes…
This may have some sort of spoilers, so if you don’t want to be spoiled on anything Supernatural related.. please stop reading.
The Winchester brothers, part of my life as a fangirl, part of my youth, my memories and everything in between.
I was a Supernatural fan… i’d been a fan for a very long time, from like season 2 or something. I remember how i started watching it and my sister telling she would tell my mom that i’m watching scary stuff when i’m known for being afraid of my own shadow.
I remember loving the Winchester brothers and having a crush on Jared Padalecki since forever… but when you end up fighting God’s sister clearly you are running out of ideas, or so i thought.
I stopped watching Supernatural years ago, in the beginning of season 12… only came back for the Scooby Doo episode. But knowing it was ending i prepared myself to catch up and finish a tv show, because i spent not only my time watching the show once until then… i watched it a few times over the years.
I thought i should “pay my respects” to the show…
I don’t even know.
It ended and tumblr is exploding. Actually, it started the explosion with S15E18 when Castiel told Dean he loves (loved) him.
Now, i shipped Destiel for a long while… and maybe i stopped watching the show because i was mad it was queerbaiting… i don’t really remember but i know i always felt it was never gonna happen.
Anyway, Castiel ended up having feelings for Dean (what a shock) obviously, for me Dean doesn’t have feeling for Castiel … or so you’ll think after the performance Jensen Ackles gave on that scene.
The thing is apparently Dean says he loves Cass too… (I heard it, he does say it) which is funny and infuriating all at the same time.
Did they want to make it queer at the end? If so, what changed? Is love different for angels? Who the hell thought sending Castiel to super mega hyper hell after admiting loving Dean was a good idea and message to the community????
Hell, if i know.
But people are raging, and i understand them… but it also makes me wonder, should i finish watching the show or not? Is it bad if i watch i on netflix? does it even matter? Do i matter?
Clearly, the audience didn’t matter much to the writers, if they did what they did to the characters at the end… there are a bunch of conspiracy theories going around about the ending of the show. I chose not to mind them too much because otherwise i’ll spiral into the neverending craziness in my head and we might never get an answer.
Since i’m on tumblr and i’m not blind, i pretty much know the ending, they are gifing everything, so there are no secrets, and i don’t really mind spoilers most of the time so i could watch it… but do i want to? I mean, a part of me obviously does, I love Sam Winchester, i want to see as much of him as i can… but i also gave up on it for a reason back in the day… and they upsetted a ton of people…
I’m being torn apart and i wanna be free of this pain… (yeah, i still quote Kylo Ren sometimes…), but i don’t know if i should do it or not.
I mean… Jared… but at the same time everything else.
Please, don’t get me wrong, i appreciate most of the people who participated on the show i don’t wanna be disrespectful to any of them… but Jared is JARED.
At the same time… when i left it, it was still going on.. and for me it will carry on (obviously on purpose) because of that and giving it an end will be like… idk… too much? Too hurtful? Seeing the ending could send me into a spiral of rewatching the show again and again, and it’s 15 seasons… which could consume my life when i just got back to normal, and reading and being okay and finally having plans in my life…
It’s just four seasons… four seasons and it will be over for me… but do i want it to be over?? Do i prefer having them as they were 4 seasons back or do i want their end? If i do watch am i betraying my community?
It’s too much…
Now i suddenly have the urge of ending my fanfiction about them… and starting a new one that it’s coming alive in my head right this moment.
I think i’ll leave this open for now, i have the option of watching it on netflix, i might do it someday… but i’m not sure today is the day… i’m not ready to saying good bye to Sam and Dean and Castiel yet. I guess it won’t be over for now… maybe the moment i see them in different tv shows will be the right moment, to let them go… speaking of letting go, i’m coming up with my next talk idea..
Letting go is so difficult, especially when these characters helped you through hard times.
Shot, i totally remember being super scared of season four and like, not being able to sleep for some reason… yes… the times when my life went to hell along with the Winchesters.
I love them, i totally do… i just, don’t want to day goodbye forever yet… and i know i can rewatch it, i’m just not ready for that either.
Hey there, everyone! Today i’m here to talk about the anime that gave me the most nightmares … Let’s talk about YAMI SHIBAI
Yamishibai: Japanese Ghost Stories also known in Japan as Yami Shibai (éèć± , Yami Shibai, lit. Dark Play) and Theater of Darkness is a 2013 Japanese anime series. The first season was directed by Tomoya Takashima, with scripts written by Hiromu Kumamoto and produced by ILCA. Each episode was animated in such a way so as to mimic the kamishibai method of story-telling. The series is organized into a collection of shorts with each episode being only a few minutes in length. Each episode features a different tale based on myths and urban legends of Japanese origin. (from wikipedia).
The thing that scares me the most in the world is asian horror. For some reason they are extremely good at making horrific stories, movies, series. They just have something that make it horrible. It’s not secret the only movies that left me without sleep were Japanese movies; Ju-On and Ringu. There are some things you can’t unseen.
The premise of this show is pretty simple. Short stories based on urban legends and Japanse myths. But there’s something about it tht just scared me so much when i watched the episode i couldn’t sleep for days after.
I know it may sound stupid coming from a show that is so simply made, that doesn’t have the best animation of all time, but let me tell you…the stories are just disturbing.
I’m now recalling the ones that gave me the more chills and i feel like i won’t be able to sleep tonight.
It reminds me of the horror asian comic that i just couldn’t stop thinking about when i first watched it and that to this day when i walk alone at night i still think about it… did you ever heard about it?
For some reason i can’t understand to this day, even thinking about it gives me the chills, it is called : Bongcheon-Dong Ghost.
The jumpscare in it was just too much for me, i guess. At the time i was scared very easily…
Anyway… The point to this post is to recommend this kind of horror, because it’s the best horror. I’ll go to my grave and beyond saying asian horror and mostly animated asian horror (though manga is great too) is the scariest. If you really want to feel some terror this halloween you have to give animated horror a chance. I really think you can get some really good scares fro mwatching Yami Shibai and looking for horror webcomics.
Let me know if you give these a chance! Leave your comment down below!
