Comparing the Character Designs of MewType In and Out of Virtual Reality

Jul 27, 10:00

1 comment

anime

Appearances aren't everything, but in a visual medium like anime, they're still pretty important. A design can tell audiences a lot about a character, giving them an idea or an expectation before their personality is expressed. This is why character designs for anime are often revealed quite in advance of the series itself premiering, and the girls of MewType from BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA are no exception.

Disgaea Mayhem Game Review

Jul 25, 12:00

1 comment

games

The real Achilles' heel of this title is the lack of a true party dynamic. ― Disgaea Mayhem manages to bring the Disgaea formula into the action RPG format successfully, but by the slimmest margin and missing many of the key features that make Disgaea soar. For background's sake, I'm a long-time Disgaea enjoyer. Not to age myself too much, but I bought a physical copy of the first Disgaea on PS2 from...

You're Way Too Cheeky, Chigaya-kun! Volume 1 Manga Review

It may not be an innovative shoujo romance, but it is a very nice one, comfortable like a peanut butter sandwich. ― Romance, particularly YA romance, which encompasses shoujo manga, has a reputation for being formulaic. We all know the basics: ordinary girl, extraordinary boy, he's awful to her, she eventually falls for him. Sometimes there's an element of one of them “saving” the other, often becaus...

The musical adventures of the girls bands in BanG Dream! have always been integrated with anime. But as a new entry BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA is even more marinated in said culture. The characters of YUME∞MITA live adjacent to Akihabara, long seen as a mecca of otaku culture in Japan. So, of course these girls are going to be steeped in anime and manga material, and it shapes both their identities and the vibe of YUME∞MITA.
