The Water Magician Anime Series Review

All in all, The Water Magician is proof that subverting clichés just for the sake of it does not make an entertaining story. *Note: This review contains major spoilers for The Water Magician. As someone who has seen more isekai anime than they can count, watching The Water Magician is a uniquely baffling experience. At its most basic, it's built on the premise of an isekai genre-savvy protagonist, ...

BEASTARS Volumes 5-22 Manga Review

This is not a series that will make it clear everything will be all right, as it doesn't offer solutions to its problems, even by the very end. BEASTARS is such a fascinating series on paper, with themes and setups that are beginning to seem more commonplace. Using anthropomorphic, furry characters as an allegory for real-world issues can have mixed results, especially when the separation between s...

Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun Volumes 2-6 Manga Review

Iruma’s early adventures fully coalesce in this set of volumes with its shorter arcs. ― It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that, since Ameri's father's name is Henri, her name is almost certainly meant to be Amélie. That's really neither here nor there, but it does add an interesting extra layer to one of the major plotlines in this set of volumes: Ameri is a closet shoujo manga fan. N...
