2. I’m the Villainess, so I’m Taming the Final Boss

4. Bibliophile Princess
Elianna Veilstein is born with the typical trait of the Veilstein family – their love for books. Because of her love for books, she’s gained the nickname, Bibliophile Princess.
Four Years ago, the first successor of The Southern Kingdom, Prince Christopher asked her to be his fiancée. Since her family doesn’t belong to any faction in the palace, there will be no quarrels over power, giving an advantage to the prince.
She agrees to marry him only because it would give her access to the Royal Library where the treasured books of the royal family are kept and only a limited number of people can enter there.
Years later, she finds him with another woman and realizes that the recent rumors are true, which means her engagement will soon be annulled, but what she doesn’t know is that there is a conspiracy that surpasses her imagination.
5. Love Flops
Love Flops is an original high school romance anime set to air on October 12, 2022.
Asahi Kashiwagi watched a strange and vague television fortune that predicted some weird things about his day. After watching his fortune, he leaves for school, and on his way, he runs into a series of strange events that are going to change his life drastically.
On his way, he meets a bunch of girls who all later turn out to be either new students or new teachers at his school. Strangely, everything that happened was exactly as predicted by his horoscope.
After school, he receives a love letter in his shoe locker, asking him to come behind the school, again as predicted by the TV fortune.
Asahi’s new youthful life starts with five girls from all over the world transferring to his school.
I’m definitely looking forward to the Bibliophile Princess and I’m the Villainess, So I’m Taming the Final Boss. The manga for I’m the Villainess was pretty funny, so I’m hoping that will be my comedy for the Fall season.
Oh hey look… They rebooted Urusei Yatsura… Uh huh. I’m going to run away screaming now. Well not so much run but hobble away slowly. All those surgeries makes running impossible. So. Anyone want to join me? Lord knows I’ll end up reviewing a Chinese Bootleg of this reboot in a few years time but… Save your sanity. Remember the original. Bye. Screaming now.
