[Event Review] Anime Town Greenville: My First Full Con Experience

By: Krow Smith | @coffeewithkrow When Peggy’s con crusade brought her to Anime Town Greenville in South Carolina, she invited me to come with her, and I certainly considered it. Then an opportunity for free entry arose when a couple friends of ours needed an extra person to help with their booth at the event. So, with my best friend and a vendor’s pass, I … Continue reading [Event Review] Anime Town Greenville: My First Full Con Experience

[Event Review] Anime Expo Chibi: Growing Pains

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last November, I had a choice between two conventions: Kumoricon 2024 and Anime Expo Chibi 2024. As many of you know, I’m a regular attendee at Kumoricon and, more recently, a panelist there.

[Event Review] Aniplex Online Fest 2024: Lacking Depth

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Aniplex Online Fest has been a staple of my annual calendar ever since the pandemic brought it to life. This entirely online “convention” experience became something I have eagerly anticipated each year, and the announcement that a recording would be available for at least a week after airing this year’s stream on YouTube was a huge relief. With my … Continue reading [Event Review] Aniplex Online Fest 2024: Lacking Depth

The stories crafted by the CLAMP team share in an extraordinary ability to immerse readers in their fantastical worlds. While there may be occasional overlaps in artwork, character designs, and names across their … Continue reading [Recommended Read] CLAMP’s “Wish”

[Event Review] Yama-Con 2024: Attendee Experience & Panelist Experience

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting TL/DR: Overall, Yama-Con is a solid convention. It’s a small to mid-tier convention in terms of size and scale for the South and well managed given the size of the location. Outside the convention there is also lots to do. Maybe not worth the travel if you dislike mountain driving though… Last weekend, I attended Yama-Con in Pigeon Forge, … Continue reading [Event Review] Yama-Con 2024: Attendee Experience & Panelist Experience

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last Thursday, I attended the 9:40 PM release of Solo Leveling: ReAwakening, which has been described as a “bridge” between Seasons 1 and 2 of the Solo Leveling anime. Essentially, it’s the Season 2 premiere, and I was hyped going in.

[Review/Recommended Read] Not Your Typical Reincarnation Story (Spoilers!)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting In the ever-growing world of reincarnation stories, it can be tough to find one that truly stands out. Most of these tales follow a familiar formula: a girl is reincarnated as (or transmigrates into) a villainess, meets a love interest, discovers that the original heroine is actually the main antagonist, defeats said antagonist, and eventually finds love and happiness. … Continue reading [Review/Recommended Read] Not Your Typical Reincarnation Story (Spoilers!)
