Out on video tomorrow, Kim checks out David Production's supernatural movie about a runaway and an orphan staying in an old house. ― The House of the Lost on the Cape (or Misaki no Mayoiga in Japanese) shares a similarity in title to The Lost Village (Mayoiga), a somewhat infamous TV anime from 2016 that was distinctive for its hokey portrayal of psychological horror.

Wolf and Red GN

Sep 25, 12:00 manga

It's classic fairytales with a BL twist! ― There seems to be some confusion about the title of this book. My review copy is labeled Wolf and Red, with the English on the cover reading Wolf and Little BL Red Hood.
