I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World TV Special Review
As with the series proper, pause at nearly any point, and the resulting screenshot looks great. It's once the show is in motion that things get dire quickly.
― When last we left off in the TV series proper, Yuuya had defeated his first Vile—Yuti, the divine archer's disciple—and we got a few scenes of in the credits showing what happened next. The first part of this special expands on those epilogue ...

You and I Are Polar Opposites Volume 8 Manga Review
I have a lot of respect for the relationship built between Taira and Azuma throughout the series. On the other hand, there is a part of me that feels just a little unsatisfied.
― If there's one thing I like about this finale of Polar Opposites, it's how it managed to bring the series full circle. The entire series was built on the idea of characters being obsessed with appearances and overthinking. T...

Creating a Fanclub: Director Sou Toyama on Kirio Fan Club
What makes Kirio Fan Club a more realistic look at high school crushes? Director of the upcoming anime, Sou Toyama, gets into it.
― Kirio Fan Club is not your typical tale of high school love. Aimi and Nami eschew many of the romanticized aspects we've come to expect from anime high school girls: they're weird and loud and more than a little goofy while still taking themselves and their crush on clas...

For the uninitiated, “cakeverse” is a variant of the increasingly omnipresent omegaverse where, instead of people being classified as alphas, betas, and omegas, they are separated into cakes ...

Unico: LOST Volume 3 Manga Review
I feel like this book suffers a little bit by just having things or ideas brought up out of nowhere with very little fanfare.
― I am once again taking another magical step into the world of Unico and right off the bat, it's great to see this world expand. One thing I loved about this series is how effectively it rides the line between being beautifully mysterious and downright haunting. A lot of that...
