Last week was a little bit of a slow week when it came to things happening. A part of it was just remembering what happened in the previous cour, and the introduction of Veldora to the main cast. Nearing the end the politics started with Gazel and Elalude showing up to talk to Rimuru about … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 2

The old man looked up from his tea and saw a middle-aged woman standing there, holding the crystal ball in one hand and a twisted staff in the other.He smiled. “It’s nice to see you too, Mel.”She … Continue reading The Necromancer’s Daughter Chapter 6: The Amethyst that split the sky part I (old version)
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
Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 1
Last season I considered covering the anime Tensura Nikki on a weekly basis. I ended up deciding against it, since it’s a slice of life anime and I figured there wouldn’t be a ton to talk about. In hindsight I think there was more content than I expected, but there’s no use wondering what could … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 1
June 2021 – Monthly Playlist
It’s July! That means it’s time to post last month’s playlist as well as give you an update. I realized June was filled with updates, since my health got in the way of my productivity. I wrote 7400 words in June. That’s the lowest month by a margin of 17.000+ words so far. Having said … Continue reading June 2021 – Monthly Playlist

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
Quick Reviews: Seijou no maryoku, Hige wo Soru & Sayonara, watashi no Cramer.
Here we are again for the second (and last) quick reviews of the season. I admittedly didn’t watch a ton of shows. There are a few on my plan to watch list, but we all know how that tends to go. Here I want to highlight three good shows that I think might have fallen … Continue reading Quick Reviews: Seijou no maryoku, Hige wo Soru & Sayonara, watashi no Cramer.
Looking back on Covid
I know what you’re thinking, the coronavirus is still there, and we’re not quite there yet, and you’re totally right. But after almost 18 months of worry, pessimism and anxiety, I think it’s good to start looking forward again with optimism. As of posting this, I’ve had both shots, and in a week from now … Continue reading Looking back on Covid
Quick Reviews: Isekai Maou, Shakunetsu Kabaddi & Mashiro no Oto
How NOT to summon a demon-lord (Isekai Maou) I think no one was really expecting this series to get a sequel, and for good reason. The first show had some fun gags, but besides that there was really nothing more to it than poorly executed fanservice and a generic plot. Since it got a second … Continue reading Quick Reviews: Isekai Maou, Shakunetsu Kabaddi & Mashiro no Oto
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)
