By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting We are at the beginning of the Spring 2024 season, and I’m late, but still thought it would be nice to share a few quick recommendations for those watching things this season. In upcoming/ongoing works to consider watching this season, I recommend: Natsume Yuujinchou is probably my all-time favorite anime. It’s one of the few series I can rewatch … Continue reading Anime To Look Forward To – Fall 2024
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Who doesn’t love free anime—especially when it’s good? While taste is subjective, finding quality anime without breaking the bank is a win for any fan. As part of research I was doing for a panel idea of how to be a fan on a budget, I started deep-diving into legal, free streaming services like YouTube, my Peacock account that … Continue reading [Review] How Dare You!? – Cheng He Titong: A Must-Watch Romance Drama
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I have not looked this up, but I’m sure others have written something like the topic of this post (luck as a skill in Captain Tylor) before. Still, I’ve wanted to write this post for a while and to give my take so… here we go! In the vast and unpredictable expanse of anime, The Irresponsible Captain Tylor is … Continue reading [Analysis] Captain Tylor: Luck is a Skill
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I’m pretty sure that Pahanjip, also known as Time and Again, authored by Yun Ji Woon (or Youn Jiwoin, as there are many ways found for how to spell her name), is the first manga series that I ever purchased. Prior to acquiring it, I had read several manga titles online, borrowed them from friends or the library, and … Continue reading [Recommended Read] “Time and Again” by Yun Ji Woon
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting With the anime for Rekishi ni Nokoru Akujo ni Naru zo: Akuyaku Reijou ni Naru hodo Ouji no Dekiai wa Kasoku suru you desu! (or, I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History: The More of a Villainess I Become, the More the Prince will Dote on Me, if you prefer the English title) coming out this … Continue reading [Recommended Watch] I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Usually I would not review samplers, however I came to the realization that not everyone knows that big publishers now offer free samples of upcoming works online for people to read. Similar to webcomics, where you can read the first chapter (sometimes up to 3 or 5 chapters) for free, publishers and distributors, like Kodansha and VIZ media, now … Continue reading [Review] Kodansha Samplers from AX 2024
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting This post should have gone out a while ago… but it’s been a busy summer so I hope you all can forgive me. Long time fans of One Piece are probably well aware of Ace, Luffy and Sabo’s brother, who consumed the Mera Mera no Mi devil fruit that gave him the powers to create, control, and transform into … Continue reading [Review] Ace’s Story (The Manga)
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting While at AX I received a number of samplers for upcoming releases of various titles. Particularly previews for new distributors Orange Inc.’s Emaqi brand that is launching soon (if not already by the time this is posted). One of the titles I from their list of upcoming works that I liked the most is the Tokyo Camouflage Hour by … Continue reading [Review] Tokyo Camouflage Hour
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last weekend (16-18 August 2024), I attended the Queen City Anime Convention in Charlotte, NC. I had never been to this event before, though I had heard about it from vendors at a few events in the past year. Having been provided mixed reviews, I took it upon myself to go check it out and the result is… well, … Continue reading [Event Review] Queen City Anime Convention 2024 – Attendee Experience
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Anime Expo this year was amazing, as I discussed already in an early post! While there, I stopped by one of the booths at the exhibit hall where—for some reason—an employee gifted me an ARC of the print comic Under the Oak Tree set to release in early September of this year. For those not familiar, an ARC, or … Continue reading [Review] Under the Oak Tree (Advance Reader Copy)
