I had pretty high hopes when ordering this first volume of Double. The story struck me as unusual. It’s this genre that is a little like Sports! in that the main focus is about practicing and perfecting a skill but there are no actual sports in it. The only other example that comes to mind…
It’s hard to believe we’re already at the penultimate episode of Spy x Family, isn’t it? Well for this cour at least. Good thing we have another one to look forward to! But the season really flew by. My resolution to only watch anime I like makes 12 episodes just vanish! I hope all of…
Oh wait, I’m supposed to say something before that part. Something funny and all. I would but I’m just a little tired and all because… Mondays! Aside from the slightly tired part, I’m doing pretty well. I just got a slew of new manga and now I can’t wait to go to bed every evening…
I can’t believe I haven’t already written this post. Maybe I have and I just forgot but I couldn’t find it in my archives. Blogging can be a bit of a challenge at times, so it’s nice to remind ourselves, what some of the best parts of it are. Obviously, this list is going to…
I haven’t done that many Pride Month special posts on this site. I tend to just sprinkle posts about LGBT issues throughout the year as their own thing. I have a bit of a complicated relationship with the current state of Pride month you see. I feel like a lot of companies change their logos…
“Does Anyone Else Feel Like Buying Manga Every Day?” That’s the tweet that greeted me today when I opened my phone. For the record, the answer is “yes”. I do want to buy manga. I pretty much always want to buy manga even though I haven’t finished reading all the volumes physically in my house….
Titles: Meikyuu Black Company, The Dungeon of Black Company Genre: Fantasy, isekai, adventure, venture capital, comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: SILVER LINK. No matter where you go, it’s always the same. The rich get richer while the little guys get screwed. So you know what you have to do? Be one of the rich! At least…
I believe the English title is Living with Yakuro-san so that’s what I’m going to go with. Generally speaking, I’m more of an anime girl. If you look at my average rankings for anime vs my average rankings for manga, the score is significantly higher. Surprisingly, most people whose profiles I have seen also rate…
I don’t often read the manga an anime is based on and vice versa. Mostly because I’m a little greedy and I want to experience as many different stories as possible. And by default, I am one of the few people I know that generally prefers anime versions. So it’s telling that three of the…
Once again Scott and I discuss confusing character developments and giant robots in our weekly AMAIM post. I think that neither of us can deny that this show is not living up to its full potential but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some interesting things to discuss. I hope you will all join us. So…
I wasn’t going to review Hiru to Yoru no Oishii Jikan. I read a lot of manga and I don’t review most of it. I haven’t even reviewed all the big CLAMP titles yet and I have binge through most of them in the past year or so. But for some reason, I just couldn’t…
You run across it sometimes. Posts or comments that mention good vs bad reasons to start an anime blog. This actually exists in a lot of communities. Notions about having the right intentions behind a YouTube or Twitch channel are occasionally floated. And it’s sort of an odd concept. Like, do you really need to…

Will evolution push our biological capacities even further? Will we unlock senses and powers we never knew we had? Or perhaps the future lies in…
Are you a fan of Naoki Urasawa? I am! A huge fan. I actually only discovered his work a few years ago, I know, I’m way late to the party. For some reason, I had decided that I didn’t like 20th Century Boys but I finally tried to reread it a few years ago and honestly,…
