My oh my it’s here and I still don’t know how to feel about it. I recently finished this arc of Made in Abyss in the manga, seeing that the English volumes are a little bit behind the Japanese ones for obvious reasons. I think Made in Abyss might be the only manga I’ve ever … Continue reading Made in Abyss: The Golden City of the Scorching Sun – Episode 1

Quick Reviews: Deaimon, Shokei Shoujo no Virgin Road & Love after world domination
Deaimon From the very first moment this show started I was immediately transported back to my early anime watching days. In particular I was reminded of one anime that is very near and dear to my heart and I should definitely rewatch in the near future; Barakamon. The setup is similar in a way, but … Continue reading Quick Reviews: Deaimon, Shokei Shoujo no Virgin Road & Love after world domination
Bleach Recap #0: My road to Bleach
I probably should have started my rewatch of Bleach a lot sooner. I wanted to include all of the fillers in my rewatch as well to make sure I see all of it again before the new season starts in October. Unfortunately, there are only about three months left, which means I have to consistently … Continue reading Bleach Recap #0: My road to Bleach
The art of the storyteller
I’ve talked on here a few times about storytelling. It’s my favorite thing after all. I think that stories are something magical. It’s an artform just like music, painting and even modern things like video and digital art. There are obviously many artforms out there because there are many different kinds of people. For me … Continue reading The art of the storyteller

Quick Reviews – Sequel edition: Kaguya-sama, Bookworm & Shield Hero
Whenever I do (quick) reviews I tend to exclude sequels. Mainly because most people have either chosen to watch or not watch the original of the series. This time around I had an opinion on three sequels this season that I wanted to get out, so I figured I’d combine them. I’ll try and avoid … Continue reading Quick Reviews – Sequel edition: Kaguya-sama, Bookworm & Shield Hero

Chapter Twenty-two – Diplomatic Immunity
Several days went by and Mana quickly got the hang of the assignment that Dionil set for them. After the third day she could lift the book up and open it to a random page. More precision than that was still beyond her, but it was a lot more than Cobal could say. He’d been … Continue reading Chapter Twenty-two – Diplomatic Immunity
Video killed the radio star
About 90% of manga and anime I consume are pure escapism. I watch and read these things because there’s cool fights, fun sports or adorable romance. I love slice of life because it makes me feel happy and at peace when it's done well. That’s why Yuru Camp is one of my favorite manga. But … Continue reading Video killed the radio star
The inside outtakes
So for those of you unaware, Bo Burnham recently posted an outtakes video to his special “Inside” It was a lot of material that just wasn’t used during the special but still interesting to watch. I watched the entire thing and thought it was pretty funny, but obviously it didn’t have the same kind of … Continue reading The inside outtakes
