I’ve decided to take my weekly The Devil is a Part-Timer! 2 posts as a bit of a challenge. Basically, I’m going to try very hard to write entire posts about each episode. Not necessarily long ones but I want to talk about a least one thing per post. I figure actual writers have to…
Top 5 Anime Demonic Found Families
Technically Rui did create his own demonic found family but I’m going to concentrate on happier examples! Oh boy, we are going into some niche content here, aren’t we! Lately, through no fault of my own, I have found myself reading a series of manga and watching a bunch of anime, and thinking, huh, that…
Love Stage!! – Uhmmm…
Titles: LOVE STAGE!! Genre: Comedy, romance Episodes: 10 Studio: J.C. Staff Izumi Sena is going to create the next masterpiece manga. He will be the biggest thing to hit the manga industry since… g pens. Why wouldn’t he? After all, success is in his blood. His mother is a renowned actress who can still turn…
Learning Japanese : But Not Really!
This is going to be a tough post to explain… Like many anime enthusiasts and Japanophiles, I have at some point entertained the idea of learning Japanese…but not really. What I mean is that I know a few languages already and I have a pretty good idea of what it takes to not only learn…
The Aquatope on White Sand – Dreams can be so Shellfish
I still don’t know if I should be ashamed or not of that pun. It’s very bad, don’t get me wrong. But it made me very happy. Especially as I unintentionally wrote it down. This is probably the first time that my maiden tongue being typo was actually useful for something. Depending on your definition…
Penguin & House – Manga First Impression
You know, I started the manga first impression posts to have some shorter quicker posts throughout the week. That was the idea at least. But it bloated pretty quickly and now a lot of them are about the same length as my anime reviews. That’s fin but I still really want to have some nice…
Shadows House 2 episode 4 – Kate
Every week, I like the Shadows House OP more and more. The song is called Shall We Dance and it’s by this lovely young artist named ReoNa. She has a great voice. I have discovered a lot of Japanese artists I love to this day through anime OPs and EDs. I like that there’s some…
The Devil is a Part-Timer! 2 Episode 3 – Still Neutral
This post is what it says on the tin. Here we are three episodes into the second season of The Devil is a Part-Timer and I find myself almost completely neutral. I don’t hate it, I don’t love it, it’s just a show that’s there. And now I realize that it’s going to be very…
Bungo Stray Dogs – Beast – MangaFirst Impression
Bungo Stray Dogs Beast is another manga I wasn’t planning to review on this site. Not that I have anything against BSD but I figured it’s such a popular franchise that most of you have heard plenty about it already. There’s no need for me to add anything. There are a whole bunch of light…
ODDTAXI – The Importance of Leaving on a Bang
Titles: Odd Taxi Genre: Drama, crime, mystery Episodes: 13 Studio: OLM, P.I.C.S. Who killed Yuki Mitsuya? Wait, don’t jump to conclusions, I’m doing a Twin Peaks analogy. We don’t even know for sure if Yuki Mitsuya is dead. There’s this idol group you see, Mystery Kiss, and the singers always wear masks but one of…
Zakuro – Prepare to be Bewitched
Titles: Otome Yokai Zakuro, Girl Demon Zakuro Genre: Action, historical, supernatural, yokai, romance, magical girl Episodes: 13 Studio: J.C. Staff Kei Agemaki is the perfect guy. He’s kind and generous and ever so handsome. Despite his resplendent golden hair, he’s a humble Japanese boy who respects his ancestors and loves his country. And he likes…
Blogging as a Grown Up
I feel like this is going to need a disclaimer. Because I know people can get touchy when I use terms like “Grown Up”. I remember watching a Jenna Marbles and hearing her explain that to her, being a grown-up means buying stuff you hate. And I love that definition. You can probably find the…
Yagi The Bookshop Goat – Manga Review
I wasn’t going to write a review about Yagi the bookstore goat. Cause I’m a bit of a noob. I’ll tell you about it in a second. But I think it’s a generally sweet little manga and when I went looking for reviews of it, not on sales sites or aggregators, I couldn’t find anything……
Shadows House 2 episode 3 – Phantom
Sadly there was no nice Maryrose dancing scene for me to make a gif out of this week. But I guess Emilico and the vacuum were almost like dancing. My autocorrect really hates the name Emilico. It auto changes it to Emilio every single time. I covered the first season, it should be used to…
The Devil is a Part-Timer! 2 Episode 1 – 3 Men And A Baby
Don’t blame me for that title, they used it in the episode! You can’t expect me not t jump on that. I don’t really remember 3 Men and a Baby but I think I liked it when I watched it. I was just a little kid mind you so I’m not going to stand by…
