So I finished xxxHOLiC, the manga last week and guys, do yourselves a favour and read xxxHOLiC. It’s such a lovely musing on the subtle nature of friendship and family. I really liked it. Right now, I’m reading Noragami. I’m finally into material that was not covered by the anime and it’s the best so…
I should probably warn you that I have not yet gotten around to seeing some classic detective animes like Monster and Hyouka and as such, I am not familiar with the anime detectives they feature. So this list may need to get updated in a year or two. I really like mysteries. In general, I…
Titles: XXX ホリック; xxxHolic Genre: Psychological Slice of Life, comedy drama, supernatural, school Episodes: 24 Studio: Production I.G Watanuki is a young man who can see Yokai. All his life this has been his blessing and his curse. But after losing his parents at a young age, this gift is starting to weigh even more on…
I think some of you may know my preference for watching anime subtitled. I think I’ve mentioned it a few times before. It’s not that I believe it to be a better experience or anything, I just happen to really enjoy the sound of Japanese as a language and also prefer Japanese acting trends. But…
It’s never too early to get your summer manga reading list together. Mostly because making reading lists is sort of my way of not just buying every single manga I see. It hasn’t been working terribly well. And oh boy, when it rains it deluges. Since starting to work with Seven Seas, they have been…
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…
Let’s start with the most important! How are you Moya? Did you guys get snow too? It’s soooo pretty and white here and just littered with snow creations. There’s like an 8-foot tall snow guardian in front of my building. And I know you are quite the snow artist so I’m hoping you got some…
Quick Summary of Dr. Stone Season 2 Episode 6 In Dr. Stone Season 2 Episode 6, “PRISON BREAK,” Chrome, having seen the traps that You Uei laid in anticipation of Senkuu’s assault, was bound and determined to break out and warn his friends about the trap.

This was confusing. First, we get a recap episode sort of out of nowhere and then we have to wait an extra day for the next episode. The Promised Neverland is playing games with my timeline. Also, tonight was a rough anime night. FUNimation was down for a while there so I couldn’t even watch…
Ok, so who else wants a spin off season of re:Zero with just Echidna’s happy family doing happy silly stuff in an idyllic countryside cabin? Like a fantasy Slice of Life. Roswaal could teach Bea to fish and they would prepare what the caught for dinner and invite witchey friends over. Echidna would wear a…
Oh boy, it’s been a looooong day. I couldn’t wait to get it over with and watch some anime and chat with a friend. It’s really what I needed tonight. But I do have this huge sense of accomplishment for unknown reasons! How are you K? Good Monday. Are you back at work/school/leading the cult/the…
A while ago I wrote a Top 5 Yuri Webcomics post and I asked if my readers wanted to see a Yaoi equivalent. As I’m writing this, one person said yes and that is all the encouragement I need. I do read a lot of Yaoi but I would say most of it is doujins,…
This is a repost that was originally published on 100 Word Anime. First of all, no… I looked it up and the titles are just as long in the original Japanese language…. If you’ve been an otaku for a while, you’ve probably come across manga’s wordier cousin, light novels. These are essentially young adult or…
Anime Blogging is a weird hobby. It introduces you to all sorts of perspectives that would never occur to anyone otherwise. This can be good but it can also be not that great. Lately, I have been thinking that one of the problems with our Brave New World isn’t only the fact that information comes…
Titles: Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo? Genre: Isekai, action, comedy, fantasy, actually not a harem even though I thought it was, mecha(?)
