Exploring the magic of anime and manga.
On Crunchyroll these days, it’s becoming easier to see songs being translated. So why doesn’t this happen more, and why hasn’t it happened more? I’ve noticed that Idolish7 gets its songs translated while the ending for the Boueibu LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! OVA, Kokoro to Kokoro de, got translated, so why is it that historically subtitlers -...

I keep forgetting to talk about what happens after I've done the initial TBR/W post... While I was setting up the roundup post for June, I realised I hadn't actually done anything for the TBR/W tag in a while. At first, I was just going to let my next post for it be a surprise,...

Another week means another round of the Spellbooks and Horoscopes collab! What’s in store for us this time, after 2 episodes of unneeded deviation from the plot? Aria: Mahou Shoujo Ore’s back in full swing this week! Thank goodness, because we’re starting to get to the pointy end of the season already… Astral: And the... Continue Reading →
Arthifis and Mel extended their challenge, so Lina and I are extending our challenge as well. That means 10 more boys that what we previously had - look forward to the related posts!

Aria the Animation is one of those shows people use as a gateway iyashikei and/or slice of life and I was one of those people, although I did bingewatch it and so I forgot some... Continue Reading →
I really need to experiment more with bingeing so I can clean my on-hold list... You’ve heard the argument before – watch weekly! Binge! Simulcast! …ugh, can’t people decide on one argument? Therefore, I’m going to put forward both arguments and as part of the half-year festivities for the Spellbook, you can choose the one... Continue Reading →
Another month has just flown past. Let's look back at what happened in it... If it's not specified, the time period covered in this post is from the 23rd of April 2018 to today (21st May 2018). Navigation: Other People's Reads | Spellbook Offerings | A Turbulent Month | Coming up next... Other People's Reads It wouldn't... Continue Reading →
Now that Astral and Aria have gotten over Mahou Shoujo Ore episode 5, it’s time for them to face their new opponent for the week.
