We’re already at volume 10, time really does fly when you’re having fun. I currently have access to 15 volumes in total, and I don’t think that will change anytime soon. I say 15, but this most recent one hasn’t arrived yet, so let’s hope it’s here by the time I’ve gotten through the volumes … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 10

Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 5
So as most of you will have noticed, I forgot to write a review next week. I even posted on twitter that it would be there a day later, and then I ended up completely forgetting about it. In my defense, I had a party and I had planned to play Dungeons & Dragons with … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 5
The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 9
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
Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 2
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 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
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
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.
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)
