Blog: Sophmore Student Destroys Unclaimed Demigod (Part 2): The Return of Sanity.

Previously on The Tanuki Corner, I wrote a post demolishing the arguments presented by the YouTuber Unclaimed Demigod and I promised that I would do a part two since within the thirteen minute video called “Reading Trials of Apollo Reviews from Homophobic Parents and Losing My Mind” there were twenty incredibly shallow arguments that made my blood...

Blog: Sophmore Student Destroys Unclaimed Demigod.

Keeping up with the trend for this week about the crappiest fandom in existence, the Percy Jackson fandom, I'm going to be destorying the arguments presented by the YouTuber Unclaimed Demigod. Unclaimed demigod is a book review channel who identifies as Aro/Ace (I'm trying to figure out if she's half Ace of Spades, Ace of... Continue Reading →

Blog: Why I Left the Percy Jackson Fandom (and I Don’t Regret it)

So, recently I've done three reviews on the main three series of the Camp Half-Blood Chronicles (the name assigned to Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Heroes of Olympus, and The Trials of Apollo). While I thought the original Percy Jackson series was good, I thought the other books were mediocre at best. Books aside however,... Continue Reading →

Review: The Trials of Apollo Openly Marked the End of Sanity (Spoilers)

If you thought my review of The Heroes of Olympus was bad, this one is going to be much worse. The Trials of Apollo was the gayest series in the Riordanverse (next to Magnus Chase and The Sun and the Star) and while it stuck farily well to the plot (thankfully it had a plot),... Continue Reading →

Review: Heroes of Olympus: The Series Where Things Started Going Wrong (Spoilers).

If you've read my review on Percy Jackson and the Olympians that I posted last week, you'll realize that I have a lot to say about this series and its spinoffs. While the original series was really good and is easily one of my favorite YA reads of all time, The Heroes of Olympus was... Continue Reading →

Review: Percy Jackson and the Olympians was the Start of an Era. (Spoilers)

From the ages of 12-14, this series was basically my entire world. All I would ever talk about was "Percy Jackson this" and "Percy Jackson that". I would not shut up about the Greek gods and their stories. However, now that I'm older and have seen how chaotic the Percy Jackson fandom is, I have... Continue Reading →

Review: Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. All Hail King Elessar! (Spoilers)

This is the best book in the series and is where we finally get a wrap up to the epic saga that started with the Fellowship. The world of Middle Earth has finally been saved once and for all, and we get some awesome lore drops in the Appendices that sorta explain (but not in... Continue Reading →

News: The Witcher is Dying and is an Example of #GoWokeGoBroke.

On this blog, I often talk about how if you go woke, your show or franchise is going to decrease in quality until its completely unwatchable. We've seen this with Star Wars, Marvel, Indiana Jones, anything Disney-owned in general, The Dragon Prince, Rings of Power, etc. The latest on the chopping block is now The... Continue Reading →

Blog: Hollywood Remakes and the Death of Creativity

When I was still in elementary school, I mostly wrote fanfiction for creative writing assignments. Often, many of my stories were retellings of fairy tales or had something to do with Barbie. The two stories I remember the most were 1). Frog and Toad meets the Barbie Spy Squad where Frodo and Sam were working... Continue Reading →

Review: Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Eowyn Wants to Kick Butt, Sam Gets to Use Frodo’s Cool Flashlight, Treebeard is Slow, Sauron is Somewhat Funny, and I Now Have Arachnophobia (Spoilers).

After reading Fellowship of the Rings, I obviously didn't stop to take a break, take some time to process the greatness of what I had read, maybe grab a snack. Nope. I immediately jumped to The Two Towers, because patience, what's that? I had made it my mission at that point to absorb all Tolkien... Continue Reading →
