Wow, I am building up my library of webcomic recommendations really quickly. I wonder if I’ll; be able to keep it up. A lot of the stuff I read is probably not suitable for general consumption. However, Fisheye Placebo can and should be read by everyone. Before I get into it, here’s what this feature…

I haven’t found an anime to review on Sundays for this season so I’m going to take advantage of this little respite and thank my readers just for being here. It means so much, now more than ever. I’m writing this on Thursday. I hit 2k overnight on Wednesday. Hopefully by the time this post…
Genre: Science fiction, mecha, action, adventure, kaiju, Episodes: 12 Studio: Trigger Puberty is weird. You hit high school and all the sudden you don’t know who you are anymore.
