Ghost Dating Simulation Season 1 K-Comic Review

May 30, 12:00 korean

Ghost Dating Simulation is, in all fairness, kind of schlocky.

I went into Ghost D...

Hotel Inhumans Anime Series Review

May 29, 12:00 anime

While I enjoyed my time spent at Hotel Inhumans, it undoubtedly has room for improvement going forward. ― Despite my initial disappointment in discovering that Hotel Inhumans was not, in fact, all about a gang of creepy monster-folks all living together under one roof, I was immediately intrigued with what the show is actually about, which is a series of episodic stories all dealing with various kill...

Mana fans, rejoice! The beloved and beleaguered franchise has some good news for English-language fans! ― Welcome back, folks! I've been keeping up with the first .hack//GU game in my spare time, and it's... disappointing me some.

Stuck in Natsuno's eye, Daigo never really had the same chance to move on from the bad old days like the rest of the Goko Clan remnants. ― As a young man once said, life comes at you fast. Sometimes that means you don't have time to stop and really process what's coming your way. For Nanoka, that means that she has to keep moving forward, Natsuno's death notwithstanding. After all, there's still the ...
