Strategem & Stardom (Paripi Koumei)

That’s fine and will create many amazing stories. If I’m completely honest with you, that’s for sure what I’m doing with my own story, Hesitant … Continue reading Strategem & Stardom (Paripi Koumei)
Made in Abyss: The Golden City of the Scorching Sun – Episode 1
My oh my it’s here and I still don’t know how to feel about it. I recently finished this arc of Made in Abyss in the manga, seeing that the English volumes are a little bit behind the Japanese ones for obvious reasons.
