Anime Tragedies: Legacies Unfinished
Read nowAnime is so much more than simply cartoons produced in Japan; it is an entirely different universe of animation, world-building and character interactions which often surpasses its casual western counterparts by leaps and bounds.

Unfortunately, differences in art and world-building aren't the only things that set anime apart from cartoons.
Our highlight this week is on two such Anime Tragedies with Legacies forever unfinished. -
