Posted on April 11, 2021April 10, 2021 by Irina

I mentioned this in my Shadows House review but I’m not sure how many of you will read both so here we go again. I did a poll on Twitter asking people if I should review Shadows House, Pretty Boy Detective Club or both. And Pretty Boy Detective Club won in a landslide. Which was…

Quasi-professional blogger Irina on what changes when you *Have* to post

Posted on April 8, 2021March 14, 2021 by Irina

You know, I think that even quasi-professional is too strong a term here. I do like that title though, it makes me sound like a light novel protagonist! As some of you may know, a little while ago I started to publish more PR and Solicited posts. I always tell you when I do and…

Update on Blogger Decorum

Posted on April 7, 2021March 14, 2021 by Irina

Mieruko-Chan – Manga First Impression

Posted on April 5, 2021March 14, 2021 by Irina

So lately I’ve been ordering a lot of manga. I’m in the mood to discover my next big manga love story. I’ve also not been reading as much webcomics. At least not family-friendly ones. As such, I figured I would switch my webtoon recommendations for manga first impressions until I build up a nice stock…

5 Times I Preferred the Manga to the Anime

Posted on April 2, 2021March 14, 2021 by Irina

Believe it or not, this was one of the toughest lists for me to put together. First of all, I rarely read manga on an anime I’ve already seen and vice versa. I’m just too curious and impatient, so I have a tendency to want to discover new stories instead of adaptations. Also, I just…

Expanding beyond WordPress

Posted on March 30, 2021March 14, 2021 by Irina

This post was originally published on 100 word anime but I’m repurposing it. Some time ago I realized that although the WordPress community is absolutely wonderful and I wouldn’t trade it for the world, it remains for lack of a better word, “limited”. In numbers, not in wonderfulness. For a blog to *keep* growing and…
