Blog Updates – August
Hello, Everyone! After publishing my last post and thinking on things for a bit, I’ve decided to take a bit of time this month to regroup and focus on some behind-the-scenes work. So, I’ll be stepping back slightly in August to catch up on a few important projects—including editing a video from an interview I conducted in April (which really needs to go up soon!) … Continue reading Blog Updates – August
[Review] Manga & Anime Workbook: Educational or Problematic?
By: Krow Smith | @coffeewithkrow I was homeschooled from 7th Grade to 10th Grade (ages 12 to 15) and it was not a great experience. In fact, when I re-entered public school, I was held back a grade because I was so behind on credits. The experience shaped how I view homeschooling and I can be very passionate about it. While homeschooling can help some … Continue reading [Review] Manga & Anime Workbook: Educational or Problematic?
[Community/Chatting] Keeping Something For Yourself
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting A short while ago I mentioned to you all that I had to withdraw from AX due to personal expenses. While I had every intention of being at Anime Expo two weekends ago for 4th of July months prior, that sadly didn’t pan out. So, with a heavy heart, I sent off a few hard emails, made peace with … Continue reading [Community/Chatting] Keeping Something For Yourself
[Review] My Alcoholic Escape from Reality: Going Nowhere & Being Okay With That
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Published in 2021, this book is what truly made me fall in love with Nagata Kabi’s work. Before this, I had read her famous My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness memoir-manga and a few other titles, but this one really solidified me as a fan of Nagata’s work. The story follows her experience with pancreatitis at age 31, and like … Continue reading [Review] My Alcoholic Escape from Reality: Going Nowhere & Being Okay With That
[Review] She Likes Gays, But Not Me: Teenage Cringe + Honesty = A Good Read?
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Recently, the Barnes & Noble in my new hometown in South Carolina faced a scare when their rental contract was about to expire. The situation caused a lot of commotion and led to a huge sale, which, of course, sent me into full-on “buy-all-the-books” mode. I ended up picking up over ten volumes of various series—some I had already … Continue reading [Review] She Likes Gays, But Not Me: Teenage Cringe + Honesty = A Good Read?
[Review] A Quick Look At MANGA MIRAI
By: Peggy Sue Wood |Â @pswediting MANGA MIRAI is a digital manga reading app and website that appears to have launched on March 4, 2025, based on my Google search and their press release.

[Recommended Read] Anime Hanabi’s “The Easiest Asian Language!”
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting As some of you may know, I’ve been on a (mostly quiet) journey to learn more about East Asian cultures and languages. I’m still building confidence when it comes to speaking, but I’d say I have a decent handle on reading and writing low-level Japanese and, lately, I’ve also been casually exploring Chinese and Korean. So when Anime Hanabi—a fellow … Continue reading [Recommended Read] Anime Hanabi’s “The Easiest Asian Language!”
[Review/Recommendation] The Amazing Digital Circus
By: Peggy Sue Wood |Â @pswediting Last week a lot happened that reenergized me and my passion for weird, animated, and wonderfully chaotic shows. One of the biggest highlights is that, after nearly six months, GLITCH finally dropped Episode 5 of The Amazing Digital Circus. Now, if you haven’t seen this series before, I definitely think you should check it out. Similar to shows like Vivziepop’s … Continue reading [Review/Recommendation] The Amazing Digital Circus
A Must Watch: KPop Demon HuntersÂ
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting KPop Demon Hunters is now streaming on Netflix, and I have to say—this is quickly becoming a must-watch. Even if the plot doesn’t fully grab you, the pop music alone makes it worth your time. The film released on Friday, June 20, 2025, and if your YouTube feed is anything like mine (especially if you follow a lot of animation … Continue reading A Must Watch: KPop Demon HuntersÂ
