Once you decide that fan translations are ok, it’s difficult to stop. Yup, The Solitary Castle in the Mirror is another manga that hasn’t quite been officially licensed yet. It’s actually based on a novel that might have an official translation. I’m afraid I didn’t do my homework there. The original title is Kagami no…

AMAIM Warrior at the Border EP 6 – Awaiting the Hero — Mechanical Anime Reviews
Hi Irina, I hope that you have been ok. I am still astonished that it’s November right now? Does that feel right to you? Why does time like to make fun of us like this? I actually finished my Christmas shopping and just put my three up so I guess I’m ready for winter? I […]…
Visual Prison ep.6 – The Power of Makeup
The real title for this week’s episode of Visual Prison is Shangri-la of Cruelty. I don’t think I could ever top that. I think it’s also the title of the OP song. In any case, it’s the best most ridiculous title ever and we should take a moment to appreciate the emo word salad that…
Platinum End ep 6- Another Fakeout
Sadly this week’s episode of Platinum End was nowhere near as funny as last week’s. I still giggled at Mirai’s random premonition but that was mostly because of how out of nowhere and non-sequitur it was. I guess that explosion was kind of funny as well. Oh and Mirai got all high and mighty with…
The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window ep6- What Goes Up
Last week might have been my favourite episode of The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window and I said as much. I figured it could be a good sign that the second half of the series would be a bit more to my taste. The tone and writing are pretty inconsistent which gets on my nerves…
5 Things That Seem Way More Important to Anime Characters Than to Me
I just liked that gif I know a lot of it comes from culture clash and some are just old tropes, but anime characters sure get excited about some weird things sometimes. After so many years of watching Anime they don’t really register any more but still, I sometimes think it would be so weird…
The True Mystery of Hyouka
Titles: Hyouka: Forbidden Secrets Genre: Slice of Life, School, Cute Kids doing Cute Things, drama Episodes: 22 Studio: Kyoto Animation The classic literature club is in danger! It hasn’t been attracting new members for a while and if no one signs up this year it might shut down! And since it was Oreki’s sister’s club,…
Banana Fish Manga and Representation
The great Raving Otaku generously shared with us a post about Banana Fish the other day. This got me thinking about the series again and the conversations I had when it was announced. For those of you that don’t know, I read the Banana Fish manga years ago. It was in fact one of the…
I Have An Idea for a Provisional Scanslation Licence
What a boring title. And this is going to be a bit of a boring post. I’m mostly going to talk about copyright and theoretical licensing rights so you know, feel free to skip this one if you’re already dozing off. But for all you intellectual property nerds out there, let me tell you about…
Gigant – Manga First Impression
I’m really starting to rack up these manga first impressions. They are much easier to put together since reading a volume of the manga is way quicker than watching an entire season of anime. I might start doubling up on them on Mondays. They almost feel like episode reviews and I love reading new manga….
Demon Slayer 2 Episode 4: Sleep When You’re Dead
That was quite the cliffhanger to leave us on for two weeks! Not that I thought Tanjiro was actually going to die but you know!So Demon Slayer didn’t air last week because of the live election coverage in Japan. I saw quite the stir on Twitter with some fans being very unhappy. A tweet that…
AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline ep5 – Homecoming
I was a bit out of it last week. I was just exhausted for no apparent reason. I had no other symptoms but I wanted to go to bed at like 6 pm on some evenings. I feel much better now. In fact, I felt really great today all day. This might have something to…
Visual Prison ep.5 – The Day He Got A Mullet
Guys, we need to talk. I know I joke around a lot about anime trying to brainwash me into being attracted to mullet. And Visual Prison is certainly guilty of that as well. 50% of the main band have mullets. But seriously, please stop getting Mullets. On and wolf cuts, are just mullets. They’re the…
Platinum End ep 5- Everybody Hates Metropoliman
I’m feeling much better this week. And thank you so much to everyone who reached out to see how I was. You guys are honestly so sweet. I was just lacking sleep but I caught up! Now I’m super happy and productive. Also a little hungry for some reason. Let’s see if that affects my…
