With a rather large school arc now seemingly behind us, we returned home to the cottage at the end of the last volume, where it’s time to wind down and relax a little bit, having dealt with Philomela’s grandmother and the accompanying corruption.

12 years since Rage of Bahamut: Genesis

One Punch
If you came here for another scathing review about the dumpster fire that is One Punch Man season 3, I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you.

Rudeus Greyrat Vs. Arthur Leywin
I have been a fan of the Isekai genre for quite a while. This isn’t a surprise to anyone who reads my blog regularly as one of the big stories I’m writing is based on the genre. A few years ago, we watched the first season of Mushoku Tensei with the promise that the studio … Continue reading Rudeus Greyrat Vs. Arthur Leywin
