Lately, I found myself really enjoying a number of manga that are not exactly well rated in aggregators. Hence the underrated statement in my title. I actually talked about Mama Akuma in a separate list post (I’m not sure if it will be published before this but if it is, I’ll try to remember to…

Delicious Anime no Bento

Posted on August 10, 2022July 29, 2022 by Irina

As I  write this It’s festival time again in Montreal.  For me, that means my yearly pilgrimage to Fantasia for films and friends. The festival may have traded the intoxicating (and likely intoxicated) crowds and atmosphere for a more professional event where movies don’t start n hour late… I’m not sure which I like best……

The Aquatope on White Sand – Dreams can be so Shellfish

Posted on August 2, 2022June 3, 2022 by Irina

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.

The Country Without Humans – Manga First Impression

Posted on July 8, 2022May 4, 2022 by Irina

You know, I’m a fan of Iwatobineko‘s imagery. Not necessarily the art style in itself, although it’s quite nice as well, no complaints, but the composition. The elements that are brought together and how they fit into the image. Granted, I have only seen two covers by Iwatobineko but I really liked both of them!

Given: On the Other Hand

Posted on July 3, 2022July 2, 2022 by Irina
