[Highlights] Kino’s Journey Ep. 8 (Land of Wizards)
An episode that takes a simple idea and explores it in a refreshing way. Probably not among the strongest of Kino’s episodes, but there’s a bit going for…
[Highlights] Kino’s Journey Ep. 3 (Land of Prophecies)
Back to our routine of episodic Kino. Just learned that Kino is a “she,” so I won’t be using “they/them” to describe her anymore. This episode features not…
[Highlights] Kino’s Journey Ep. 7 (Coliseum Pt. 2)

[Highlights] Kino’s Journey Ep. 13 (A Peaceful Land)
Back again with another procrasti-post! This episode really isn’t one of the series’ strongest. It feels kind of wrong that it’s the penultimate episode in the series, when…

[Highlights] Kino’s Journey Ep. 10 (A Tale of Mechanical Dolls)
Kino’s Journey is back! I’d say “I’m back,” but I’m not sure I really am…yet. This episode is one that focuses on few characters instead of a country,…
