Hello, is this thing on? I know my Friday posts are reserved for manga related content, and some of it has been more about anime than manga, but there is other content coming, don’t worry.

10 Amazing anime opening themes!
Initially I was going to write a piece talking about different Japanese artists, and what I liked about them. After two attempts of writing up a list I still wasn’t quite happy with what I wrote down. It had great artists, but the content had quickly turned into a boring list, with my writing adding … Continue reading 10 Amazing anime opening themes!
Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Mythology in Fiction
This post will contain a few minor spoilers for the Percy Jackson book series, so beware of that. Gods, titans, centaurs, demigods and all the fun problems this creates for your narrative.

I’ve always liked mythology and … Continue reading Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Mythology in Fiction
Bungou Stray Dogs Volume 1
Bungou stray dogs is a story of a genre that is right up my alley. I love fantasy elements set within modern day worlds. I used to not be into this genre at all when I was younger.

“Keep up, David, we still have a ways to go before nightfall.” The man up front was dressed in clothes that were designed with the philosophy that one could never have too many pockets.

Looking back on 1000 chapters of One Piece
When I first started watching One Piece it was already a behemoth of a show. I was new to anime and manga at this point, and One Piece with its flashy characters and strange powers looked very interesting to me. There was apparently a massive war going on, which I would later learn was the … Continue reading Looking back on 1000 chapters of One Piece
5 Winter 2021 anime that stand out
Today I’ll be looking at some of the anime that have stood out so far during the winter season. It’s been a very stacked season and a lot of the shows I’ve been watching are sequels.

The Necromancer’s Daughter Chapter 2: The Princess and the snowstorm (old version)
“If you don’t mind me calling you that, of course,” the elderly man said to the woman standing behind the bar. She picked up another patron’s empty glass and doused it in water before cleaning it with a cloth, never quite breaking eye contact with him.“But of course, I do not mind.
