Let’s Go Karaoke Manga Review

Posted on October 3, 2022August 26, 2022 by Irina

Do you like Karaoke? It’s one of those things where I’ve never met anyone who’s neutral on it. Either they really like it and look forward to going when they can or they absolutely hate even the idea of it and avoid it like the plague. Maybe it’s cultural. But I certainly like Karaoke!

Posted on October 1, 2022September 30, 2022 by Irina

I seriously almost forgot I was still watching this show. Forgetting about a show at the last episode is almost impressive. Admittedly, it’s a very busy period at work lately and I haven’t been getting all that much sleep so part of it is on me. Still, I would like to put some of the…

The Devil is a Part-Timer! 2 Episode 11 – A New Challenger

Posted on September 24, 2022September 22, 2022 by Irina

We’re at the penultimate episode of the season and I,m kind of worried. I really dislike when shows try to cram new elements in at the last minute. It’s rarely done right and you don’t really have the time for a proper payoff. And this episode seemed like it was trying t do just that.
