Throughout the years, I’ve been trying to get better at worrying about my dropped anime. What I mean by this is that I don’t want to obsess about clearing out that list as much as possible. There’s something wrong with me that I want to finish every show I’ve started, even if I know I … Continue reading On Black Clover

The Final draft
Nothing is as terrifying to me as writing a final draft. I haven’t really done it before if I’m honest. I’ll write a version of my story that I consider good enough to upload, but right now I’m working on an actual final draft of the Hesitant Hero volume 1. When it’s done, I want … Continue reading The Final draft
Chapter 5 – The city hidden away from worry
Cobal and Mana were sitting in the common room of the inn. Eliana had gone out to find her friend in town while the two of them would wait here. Breakfast was pleasant. There was a nice stew with lots of vegetables in it that they enjoyed with some freshly baked bread. Clara, the innkeeper, … Continue reading Chapter 5 – The city hidden away from worry
My favorite things in January
I was originally going to call this post “My favorite things in January” as that’s how youtuber Super Eyepatch Wolf names his videos that serve the same purpose. Obviously he didn’t invent the concept of recapping media you consumed, but it does have a very nice ring to it. If that’s the title of this … Continue reading My favorite things in January
One Piece Volume 54
We got to take a little bit of a breather last week when things calmed down a bit after Sabaody Archipelago ended. We learned that the Straw Hats - although separated - were probably fine. Kuma’s ability doesn’t kill people or make them vanish, he just sends them to another place. Luffy was sent to … Continue reading One Piece Volume 54
The unrivaled work ethic of Hiro Mashima
I talk about Hiro Mashima’s work a lot. Yet I’m also one of the people who is quick to call out problems with his work. It’s often aimless, repeats a lot, uses too much fanservice that doesn’t get anywhere and it’s far too clean when it comes to the stakes it tends to have. Despite … Continue reading The unrivaled work ethic of Hiro Mashima
Chapter 4 – Storyteller II
Cobal looked over at Mana, who was enthralled by the story. She talked about liking this kind of stuff earlier and he could see in her eyes that this came from a place of nostalgia. Cobal smiled as he watched her before turning his attention back to the storyteller as well. He’d taken a short … Continue reading Chapter 4 – Storyteller II
One Piece Volume 53
Last week, in volume 52, shit really hit the fan. The supernovas showed up, which is a generation of rookie pirates that all have high bounties. This includes Zoro and Luffy but also has other interesting types like Jewelry Bonney, Eustass Kid and Trafalgar Law. After Luffy beat up a world noble, the crew fled … Continue reading One Piece Volume 53
The slow decline of the countryside
I live in a small town. But when I say that it’s a small town, that’s not giving away a whole lot. The town I live in has around 12.000 people living in it. Depending on your perspective that can be a lot or very little. For comparison, Amsterdam has around 800.000 people living in … Continue reading The slow decline of the countryside
Chapter 3 – Storyteller I
The food served at The Phantom Homestead was impressive. Clara explained that she had an old chef working in the kitchen that used to be employed by a noble family somewhere to the west. After getting fed up with that job, he came here to find a place in which he could more freely experiment … Continue reading Chapter 3 – Storyteller I
