Recommended Watch: WUZU Clay ASMR

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting With finals week just around the corner, I’ve been listening to a lot of ASMR playlists filled with classical music, rain sounds, and crackling fireplaces. Somewhere along the way, I ran into WUZU Clay’s channel–specifically, the video above. I’m not sure exactly why it suddenly came up in the autoplay on my YouTube. It’s not something I would typically … Continue reading Recommended Watch: WUZU Clay ASMR

Hotel Transylvania 4 –  I’m Disappointed (SPOILER WARNING?)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Look–I know this is late but I had to stew on my thoughts, okay? Okay. Great, let’s go: Once more I find myself leaving a movie viewing sincerely disappointed. My first issue with Transformania, the fourth installment of the Hotel Transylvania series, was with the singular Amazon Prime release.

Ascendance of a Bookworm: I Don’t Understand Its Popularity

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting A few years ago, I read the beginning volumes of Ascendance of a Bookworm. I thought it was okay and there was nothing in particular that hooked me. The explanations felt like the kind of tutorials and information I’d see in a Dr. Stone story, and the characters were as unrecognizable to me as almost any other reincarnation/isekai I … Continue reading Ascendance of a Bookworm: I Don’t Understand Its Popularity

A Recommended Watch for Content Creators

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I know I said I would not be putting out a post this week because it’s a holiday weekend and my birthday, and I’m on a hiatus, but I feel the need to write this.

Recommended Reads for Using Comics In The Classroom

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @peggyseditorial​ / @pswediting I’ve been thinking a lot about comics in education lately. Partially because, as I’m writing this in March to prepare for my April/May hiatus, I’ve been preparing to present on the subject in a classroom and at a convention, but also because we’ve done several recommended watches on the subject here at The Anime View.  I’m really … Continue reading Recommended Reads for Using Comics In The Classroom

Dungeon Breaks Should Break the Economy, Right? (Analysis)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting This post is less of an analysis/review and more of a sincere question that I pose to anyone who is more knowledgeable on the subject of economics than myself. You see, I’ve been reading a lot of dungeon break comics such as The S-Classes That I Raised and Solo Leveling. While it is apparent that these hunters are making a lot of money, … Continue reading Dungeon Breaks Should Break the Economy, Right? (Analysis)

Spring 2022 Must Watch? The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs! (Recommended Watch/Read)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting​ Next month is the release of an anime I’ve been looking forward to, Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs (or, in Japanese, Otome Game Sekai wa Mob ni Kibishii Sekai desu). There are a number of reasons I like this isekai, but the main one would probably be the unique approach it … Continue reading Spring 2022 Must Watch? The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs!

Return of the Blossoming Blade (Recommended Read)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting ​ This is already a pretty well known Webtoon series, but I haven’t seen any long-form reviews about it or analyses yet, so here I am, filling the potential void. Perhaps it’s a bit timely to do so now too, as tomorrow marks the Spring Equinox, meaning that–this week–countries are holding their annual flower festivities and celebrating. There is the … Continue reading Return of the Blossoming Blade (Recommended Read)
