I Am a Cat Barista: Short But Sweet, with a Bit of Whiplash to Serve

The main gripe I have about the series I Am a Cat Barista, based on its first volume, isn't its setup. (It's basically Rokuhoudou's with a giant cat-man, so don't fix what ain't broke, amirite?) It's the fact the chapters are too short, so they leave you wanting! Once the treat of the day is...

Some Manga, The Mugen Train and Other Musings

It’s been a hot minute since I was blogging here, huh? What’s happened since you were last here? Now basically everyone is at the point of the year where they’re all going to school and whatnot, I finally have some time back to myself. This is a good thing, I think, because I set a...

Weekly Manga Reads (…and Then Some)

Essentially my version of Scott's post here. Sometimes I forget I'm a manga blogger amidst all the anime, but I do read quite a bit of it. I just like to turn my brain off to it a lot and since it's easy to burn through, you see me update my list a lot but...

Relivin’ the Dream Again with Rokuhoudou

To be honest with you, I've been working on a project in secret... ...it's a rewatch project; that is, checking out some of the things on my favourites list to see if they do hold up on future watching, as all good works should. (However, the project's not as official as the others which have...

Animanga Festival #5 – Taking a Journey through the Anime and Manga Worlds

Yes, I'm part of the Animanga Festival. Meta context: I skipped #2 because in 2015 - that is, before I made the jump to WordPress - I made a Tumblr post on this very topic and it reflects both my naivete and its rather fillery nature in the context of the blog it's hosted on. I'm not...

Sending Off Spring 2018

There was way too much good stuff this season, so putting down some final thoughts for each will be pretty hard... Boueibu is still missing an episode due to its delay, plus Nobunaga no Shinobi and Boku no Hero Academia are continuing, but otherwise these should cover the entirety of the show. If not specified,...
