Love on the Other Side: A Nagabe Short Story Collection

Aug 14, 15:00
5 comments
manga
Nagabe's style of stark draftsmanship is key to the ethereal, fairytale-like atmosphere so many of their works channel, and here functions excellently to enhance the inhuman nature of its subjects. ― Like it says in the sub-title, Love On The Other Side is a collection of short stories crafted by Nagabe, the pseudonymous creator of The Girl From The Other Side: Siuil a Run. Those familiar with Nagabe...

Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle

Aug 13, 15:00
3 comments
anime
The most baffling thing about Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle is that it is a 12-episode prequel to a phone game that doesn't seem to have much to do with the themes of this anime adaptation. ― Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle is bad. It's boring, poorly animated, putridly paced and half the time barely even comprehensible. And yet, watching it, I couldn't help but see the faint flame of lost pote...

This Week in Anime - Who Keeps Giving Yamakan Money?

Aug 13, 13:00
17 comments
anime
Honestly, we'll all probably end up blocked on Twitter (if Yamakan isn't booted off the service again). ― Crunchyroll recently added director Yutaka "Yamakan" Yamamoto's latest film, Hakubo (Twilight). The 45-minute film carries a lot of baggage, thanks mostly to the long history of its director's mean-spirited commentary towards colleagues, otaku, and even assault victims. Nick and Steve try the im...

manga
A charming story about two girls who don't quite fit who learn that you really only need one person who understands you to make things worthwhile. ― While all stories have layers to one degree or another, Makoto Hagino's quiet yuri tale A Tropical Fish Yearns for Snow may be covering up more than we might at first think. This possibility comes from the fact that one of the protagonists, Konatsu, keep...
