Chapter Twenty-Three – The council of Milinia

Come morning, all four of them took a break from their training for a day to go and visit the town. Mana and Cobal hadn’t returned to the village since they originally stayed there overnight. Now they were going there to talk to the council and maybe visit some of the shops in town. With … Continue reading Chapter Twenty-Three – The council of Milinia →

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.

When looking for pictures to use for this review, I thought for a moment this was Lucy from Fairy Tail, but instead it's Rebecca from Mashima's current manga: Eden's Zero. She has cat ears on so I decided to include it anyway. When I first started watching anime as a teenager, and I mean watching … Continue reading Fairy, where you going? →

Believing in your body

I’ve been having a lot of health issues over the past years. I’ve talked openly about some and I’ve not talked about others. If I compare my mental health today to any day over the past year, I’d say it’s probably better than any of those days. It’s not quite great yet, but it’s definitely … Continue reading Believing in your body →

Chapter Twenty-one – The sage’s lessons

“Adjust your stance to what I’m showing you. You don’t have to completely abandon what you’ve learned, but try to adjust, okay? If you move your hips slightly lower and keep the knees bent you have way more flexibility. Move with the strike of the sword as you parry it as opposed to forcing yourself … Continue reading Chapter Twenty-one – The sage’s lessons →

Komi’s relatability

There have been a lot of romantic comedy shows that follow a similar template lately. There’s a guy and a girl, and the girl almost always has a quirk of sorts that makes her unique. It’s a pretty simple concept that’s fairly popular. Uzaki-chan from Uzaki-chan wa asobitai is constantly teasing our main character, Nagatoro … Continue reading Komi’s relatability →
