The Villainess is Adored by the Prince of the Neighbor Kingdom Game Review

games

The Villainess is Adored by the Prince of the Neighbor Kingdom is the sort of game you buy on sale. ― It used to be that anime series would be licensed without a whiff of possibility of our ever getting the source manga or light novels to read, to say nothing of the visual novels. But now we've come to the point where we're likely to get at least one version in English. The Villainess is Adored by th...

No Character is Safe in Hell's Paradise

Sep 10, 09:00 manga anime

In our interview with creator Yūji Kaku, we learn that every character has a "bad end" route, even protagonist Gabimaru. ― Hells Paradise captured the hearts of many people thanks to its unique setting, likable characters, and gorgeous animation. A great deal of thought went into how the anime presented itself visually and how the story effectively communicated its various potential branching paths. ...

Everything is focused on Luna and her day-to-day school life with her willing blood-bag Ootori. ― Vampires and anime, eh? An eclectic selection of anime shows feature vampiric protagonists, from the classic (Vampire Hunter D, Hellsing) to the more recent, but superb (Call of the Night), and the appallingly dreadful, best left forgotten (Vlad Love). Worryingly, the manga Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck R...

games

I wish the character selection didn't feel so random or that the rewards were actually worth the grind. It makes me wonder exactly how long this game's shelf life is going to be. ― There have been a lot more of these real-time strategy action games popping up in the past couple of years. Honestly, it's a little shocking that it took Dragon Ball this long to jump on the trend. Having a simple team-bas...

Never mind monster-taming, Digimon Story: Time Stranger is shaping up to be a great RPG, period. ― Bandai Namco has made Digimon Story: Time Stranger impossible to ignore, promoting the game as much as they can. If you haven't seen any of the many videos highlighting specific Digimon and their unique special moves, you've at least seen the news about Digi-riding. We were granted permission by Bandai ...

Oh, no, I’m sure some of you are thinking. Not another villainess isekai set in the world of an otome game. ― Oh, no, I'm sure some of you are thinking. Not another villainess isekai set in the world of an otome game. I can't blame you. Villainess isekai has become nearly as oversaturated as isekai power fantasies, as ubiquitous as pink-haired heroines and mysterious transfer students. But please, be...

If superhero fatigue is affecting anime, it's only in a good way. Read on to find out why. ― Mister Terrific asks: "Is superhero burnout at the box office affecting anime films?" Superhero fatigue* is real. Just take a look at the summer 2024 box office results for Captain America: Brave New World, Thunderbolts, The Fantastic Four, and James Gunn's Superman, which I must admit, I really enjoyed. *Su...

anime

In many ways, the show accomplishes everything it wants to, but I don't think there's much to this compared to other slice-of-life shows. ― Some shows try to replicate a very specific experience. When I was in high school, whenever my friends and I would finish up with classes, we would always go to the local deli or a card shop one or two train stops away from our school. After a long day of dealing...
