Search and Destroy Volume 1-3 Manga Review
Kaneko’s art is so sharp it looks like it was drawn with a scalpel.
― “Why are you so… angry?!” So every opponent asks of the vengeful Hyaku immediately before their violent dismemberment at her rage-filled hands. Hyaku, it turns out, has a lot to be angry about. Like her namesake Hyakkimaru, protagonist of Osamu Tezuka's classic Dororo, Hyaku's infant body parts were sacrificed and replaced with pro...

Plus-sized Misadventures in Love! Volume 1-3 Manga Review
This went from being a story I was cautious about to a story that I think needs to be told more.
― Plus-size representation in media is very rare, and it's even more rare when it is positive representation. Anime doesn't have the best track record with displaying people of more unique body types in flattering ways, so making a plus-size person the literal face of your entire manga is admirable on its...
