Episode 321: Cardcaptor Sakura: Part 2

Anime Was (Not) A Mistake is back again for another summery and abundantly floral episode of Cardcaptor Sakura. With Sakura still adapting to her world-saving title, she must also come to terms with love, loss, and maybe even a rival. From ghostly visages in the woods, to a deadly sword brooch, this batch of episodes crash louder than a peal of thunder. I hope you are all wearing your catsuits in order to infiltrate a museum and participate in a 100-meter dash. I would be worried, but we have both the Senor Sangria and Mayonnaise cards on our sides. We can do anything!

Episode 318: Sinister Six XLIV: Cartels (2023)

Cartels (2017) When Sinister Six goes sideways, there’s only one man we can call: [check script for name] 2017’s Cartels (aka Killing Salazar) kind-of stars Steven Seagal as Special Agent Harrison, who is interrogating U.S. Marshal Jensen about a botched mission. Jensen and his team had been assigned to collect the body of an assassinated crime lord, Salazar, who ends being very much alive. His team is then directed to guard Salazar at a hotel, because HOTELS CAN BE ANYTHING, and that’s where the rest of the movie takes place. There’s also a rat somewhere in the mix, or a dog, or a shark. We don’t really know. Anyway, make sure that you order some pierogis, buy some dress shields, and enjoy the continental breakfast offered here at Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!
