Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun: IruMafia Edition Volume 1 Manga Review
To hear Hiroja and original series creator Osamu Nishi talk about it, it seems that at least half of the entire point was Hiroja’s desire to draw everyone in natty suits.
― Alternate universes aren't just the stuff of fanfiction anymore. Or rather, they never have been; it's just that a lot of early fanfiction is rarely referred to as such. But how else would you describe 19th-century American humori...

Blade Girl Volumes 1-2 Manga Review
Blade Girl boldly sprints off of e-readers and onto the page, but can this print-on-demand release keep up?
― Back in April, I reviewed the first volume of Moare Ohta's Teppu—one of three initial offerings from the newly established Kodansha Print Club program. While I was thrilled to hold a copy of Ohta's underground classic in my hands, the quality of that print-on-demand release left me wanting. A...

Varlet Game Review
It's above-average dialogue in a below-average, uh, everything else.
― Varlet is a game that is more than the sum of its parts, but it still feels undercooked and overpriced. The core pitch is going to seem familiar if you've played any RPGs of the last few years. It's a school-based RPG with a split between the battle/events and structured downtime. The battles are turn-based, largely traditional co...
