Elias stopping Chise, but not as aggressively as in the volume. Last week I took a different approach to writing these blook club reviews. Instead of writing as I go through the manga, I waited until I read the entire volume before starting. And I honestly prefered that method, so for the time being that’s … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 9

The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 8
The art always looks great Normally I write these reviews in tandem with reading the manga itself. I tend to read a chapter and then write down my thoughts. Today went a little differently. I went to visit some friends for a nice day of Dungeons & Dragons. I play a human monk based on … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 8
The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 7
This volume's cover art, are they looking at the train coming up? I know that it’s been a little while since we last did one of these, but I finally got the chance to sit down and read volume 7 of The Ancient Magus Bride. In the meantime I did manage to catch up on … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 7
Enter Jue Viole Grace (ToG Recap part 3)
I’ll be honest about the early storylines of season 2. I wasn’t a big fan. I generally don’t like the sudden perspective swap to a new character and initially I wasn’t a fan of Wangnan. He felt too much like a main character (and I suppose that’s kind of the point). He’s boring. He still … Continue reading Enter Jue Viole Grace (ToG Recap part 3)
The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 6
So far the tone of each volume has been set by the intensity of the volume covers. So when I initially saw the dark colors of this volume cover I was worried it was going to be a particularly dark volume. And sure, there’s some dark moments and story beats in this volume but I … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 6
Bam & Rachel (Tower of God Recap part 2)
Last week we talked about Bam and Rachel arriving in the tower through unusual means. They went through the first test with Headon, in a sense, and made it through the initial tests. We met a lot of the important characters for this story and now it’s time for everyone to do their individual tests. … Continue reading Bam & Rachel (Tower of God Recap part 2)
Evankhell’s Hell (Tower of God Recap)
With the very exciting news that Tower of God will soon return (30th of May on the Webtoon app), I figured it would be a good idea to read the entire thing from the start again. It’s been over half a year since I read it, and I’d been looking for an excuse for a … Continue reading Evankhell’s Hell (Tower of God Recap)
The Ancient Magus Bride Volume 5
The covers and color pages in this manga are beautiful every single time. I know I’ve been slacking when it comes to both reading and writing but I can only apologize. The little time I did devote to reading this past week ended up on starting a reread of Tower of God. I heard from … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride Volume 5
The Ancient Magus Bride Volume 4
Volume 4 front cover. Once again a clever visual relating to the volume as both Chise and Elias experience a form of cold this volume. So we skipped last week, since I was busy and had to go visit a hospital on Friday. For those of you who like oversharing, I have strange lumps all … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride Volume 4
