This little project of mine is a simple blog addressing geek culture. Here I shall be spreading news of all things geeky, giving various reviews of things such as anime, video games, and movies, and much, much more! While this is my personal blog, I will primarily be posting reviews, essays and the like pertaining to geek culture.
I’m just your typical geek who happens to know how to use a computer. Best known online as Sachi, I’ve been a long time frequent of the Evageek Forums; as implied, I am a huge fan of Neon Genesis Evangelion, which is probably the show that got me into anime to begin with. Other than anime, I love video games, movies, and music. I love to go to conventions and meet lots of new people, geeks like me, and just experience fun and new things. As far as other sites go, you can find me on My Anime List, FanGirlTastic, and if you search really hard you’ll find me on Facebook and Twitter; I do go to other sites, but not too frequently.
If you wish to contact me personally, you can simply email me at kpippster@yahoo.com
All my reviews are expressive of my own personal opinion of things I watch or play, and will contain no spoilers! The point is to provide a taste of what a certain media (be it anime, movies, or something) is about before you, the audience goes out and experiences it for yourself. If you have seen the show/movie/game or whatnot before hand, well, you should read anyways and share your own opinions in the form of a comment. This is Geeks With Taste and not The Geek With Taste for a reason, and I want to get your opinions as well.
Occasionally I am put in the mood to write essays regarding certain topics pertaining to geek culture, and when the does happen I post those essays here. Sometimes they’re about some controversial issue, and sometimes they’re just random rants; either way, they can be quite enjoyable every once in a while. Expect plenty in the future!
While my past interviews have been of community members from the Evageeks Forums, I am looking into getting more interviews of a more variety of people. I am a convention goer, so I may meet people to interview that way as well.

Hello there! *waves* Just stopping by to personally invite you to our new club. Please stop by and say hello sometime and btw, love the geeks with taste blog, brilliant ♥
Just dropping by to say your blog's pretty awesome. I don't really follow blogs, but your articles are well written and there's lots of subject variety on there. I'm poking through your archives right now. (:
Although it has nothing to do with anime, I totally agree that it's an absolute crime that Kiss haven't been inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame yet.
I will disagree with your statement about Metallica being included on the list being a sign of something being 'wrong', to use your term. I personally think they do have some merit as a band because, without them, metal as it is today wouldn't exist (whether or not this is a good thing is debatable, obviously) and their albums from the '80's were very influential. Now, the fact Abba's been inducted, on the other hand...
I feel a little mixed about the show as a whole though. One part agree's that it's a very aware sort of satire about modern anime trends. While at the same time, I think director Imaishi just wanted to make a cuter version of Dead Leaves or something.
It's hard to believe that there wouldn't be some tongue in cheek during production of it though.
