I’m probably not the first person to think this, but I have a theory that the only people who can learn alchemy are those few that can draw perfect circles. It’s why so few people in FMA can get farther than a few small things and why the vast majority give up. Continue reading Theory: Perfect Circles and FMA
When I sat down to write this week’s post, I for sure thought I would be writing a review of Castlevania Season 3. Because, obviously, I binge-watched that on March 5 just like everyone else! (Okay, not everyone, but I know some of you have because my feed was filled with Castlevania screenshots and comments and fan art that meant I needed to watch it ASAP … Continue reading MyAnimeList: Can We Petition for Some Guideline Changes? (A post protesting Castlevania’s exclusion from the database)
Review: Hanayome wa Motodanshi MAL Summary: “Chii and her husband are like any other happily married couple, except for one thing: Chii was assigned male at birth. Chii details her autobiographical account of growing up with gender dysphoria and ultimately deciding to transition in her early adult years. Shortly after Chii starts transitioning, she meets a man who is instantly enamored by her, and although … Continue reading [Review] The Bride Was A Boy / Hanayome wa Motodanshi.
I forgot to post this… whoops: 1. I’m Thinking of Quitting the Villainess’ Entourage chapter 6 – Is Ange, perhaps, our MC’s daughter reincarnated into the otome game? Could that be possible? Because that’s what I’m thinking right now… 2. Reincarnated into an Otome Game? Nah, I’m Too Busy Mastering Magic! chapter 2 – That was handled surprisingly smoothly. Don’t the first minor villains take a chapter or … Continue reading Quick Reads [Jan. 17 2020]
I love supporting local stores, and with my move to LA, I’ve begun searching out anime and manga shops to get my fix for merchandise in between conventions, and where better to start than in Little Tokyo? Located at the heart of Little Tokyo is Anime Jungle, a pretty awesome store that’s broken up into four different rentals on the bottom floor of a mall/parking … Continue reading Anime Jungle – Buyback Review
I’ve wanted to do a review of Yuri!!! on Ice since it aired a few years ago, but aside from a few brief comments and a short article I wrote on filling the void left by this amazing show after the season ended I never really discussed the series in any depth. So I’m going to rectify that right now. I love this show–many of us do–and … Continue reading Yuri!!! on Ice – Following Up
theanimeview: Remember how Claude changed after spending time with Athanasia? Having a child and spending time with them is known to change people and I think that might be happening with Anastasios, particularly after he reacts to Jennette words regarding family in Chapter 62: His reaction is not the same disgust or disappointment he held when he saw Claude’s behavior around Athanasia. It’s almost like, … Continue reading THEORY: Anastasios Is Changing
My Life as an Internet Novel might be for you if you like reincarnated/wakeup in another world storylines that make you question what you would do in the same situation. Just a warning before you start though, this manhwa is a little messed up. Our main character, Ham Dan-I, who I will refer to as Dani for the rest of this analysis/theory/review, is featured center … Continue reading Review: My Life as an Internet Novel
The Logistical Review: This conference is well worth twice the $25 ticket price. In addition to meeting some of the greatest creators of our generation at the conference, there is the opportunity to learn something about the industry and network with people in it. The panels were insightful about how to market oneself and one’s work, how to build your network, as well as key … Continue reading [Event Review & Notes] of C3: Comic Creator Conference | 10 January 2020
OMG, so many things about chapter 62. I already posted about Anastasios possibly changing, but now it’s time to talk (again) about ART, particularly the mirror images we see between Claude meeting Athanasia and him meeting Jennette. When Claude meets Athanasia, look at the hues behind them–both are surrounded by yellow, which we’ve talked about before (Part 1 Link – Part 2 Link). The chapter … Continue reading ANALYSIS: Gold, Art, and Storytelling Re-revisited
