It’s little wonder that Roland became fast friends with Noé and Vanitas. After all, the three of them are very similar. By that I mean they’re all dorks and potentially a little on the dense side. I guess Vanitas might be a bit sharper but I’m not entirely sure. They do make quite the three…
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…
I can’t say that I completely understood all this formula talk in this week’s episode of The Case Study of Vanitas but it’s a concept I’ve seen in Japanese fiction before. A few times actually. The one that stands out most to me is the Tales of Vesperia game. Probably because I have spent an…
The titles of these posts are quickly just becoming whatever I scream at my TV while watching The Case Study of Vanitas that week. I think this one really hits the mark. I’ve also started to play the spot the Murr in the OP game. I think I managed to spot a Murr in every…

I had quite the ups and downs with Loner Life in Another World. I know this is originally a Light Novel series but I picked up the manga because I prefer manga. Ok so on a whim a few months ago I decided to just buy a bunch of volume 1 manga that I didn’t…
Don’t worry girl! It happens to the best of us. You get real excited about a party, you put on your nicest dress and spend like an hour doing your hair just to have it look exactly like it always does. And when you get there, everything is great! It’s exactly what you wanted. Then…
Karandi started last week’s posts with the sentence “Well, My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! X doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to advance its plot” and I guess that’s just what we’re going with now. Not that I’m complaining, I wanted the show to become unrelated Slice of…
You may have noticed that the title of this post says manga review instead of manga first impression. That’s because BL Fans Love My Brother is actually complete in one volume so I read the whole thing! Yay. Ok so on a whim a few months ago I decided to just buy a bunch of…
Yeah… I just like The Case Study of Vanitas. I read a bit further into the manga, and I have to say it’s the type of story that is really suited to an anime adaptation. Sure, the lavish and intricately detailed cityscapes are great but I’m willing to sacrifice them for the lush animation and…

One moment you’re on top of the world, the next, no one remembers your name! Well, they remember it but they just don’t care anymore. And that stings. Especially when you’re out there…
Yeah, The Case Study of Vanitas is definitely my jam. Not that many of my fellow bloggers seem to be watching it. I only see a few talk about it now and then but AniList tells me it’s the 4th most popular show of the season so I’m happy. It would be a huge bummer…
