Yaiba Omnibus 1 Manga Review

Jul 26, 12:00

manga

While the anime is great looking enough that I imagine it'll be most people's preference for experiencing this series, the manga has just enough of its own strengths to be worth checking out on its own. ― With the new Yaiba anime currently on air, and quickly proving to be one of the most impressive looking action shows of the year, the folks at Viz Media have also seen fit to release the original ma...

I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince Season 1 Anime Review

Jul 25, 12:00

anime

7th Prince has some cool ideas that I desperately wish it pursued to any meaningful extent. But instead, we got a royal snooze fest. ― I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince so I Can Take My Time Perfecting My Magical Ability (henceforth 7th Prince) is an anime that, on paper, sounds cool and, dare I say, relatable enough. I mean, if we were all fortunate enough to be reincarnated into wealth and power...

Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray Season 1 Anime Review

Jul 24, 12:00

6 comments

anime

The first season of the story of Oguri Cap stands apart from its previous Uma Musume brethren—and arguably stands above many of them. ― Every great hero deserves an origin story, and that even—especially!—includes the funny big-eating horse girl Oguri Cap from Uma Musume.

Hanakage Alt’s Senpai no Kohai is, in its slender volume, a beautifully sweet love story. ― Sayuri knows that it's hopeless to fall in love with a straight woman. That's an academic consideration, of course, when in her final year of college, she fell head over heels for Risa. The adorable first year consumed all of Sayuri's thoughts, no matter how hard she tried to avoid them, and when she graduated...
