[Event Review] PokeKon Fest – Charleston, SC 2025

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting TL;DR: Overall, PokeKon Charleston felt less like a full convention and more like a small meetup. It may be enjoyable for locals, families, or collectors looking to buy cards, but it isn’t something I’d recommend planning an entire day or trip around. My Review: Last weekend, Krow and I attended PokeKon in Charleston, SC, and while I went in with … Continue reading [Event Review] PokeKon Fest – Charleston, SC 2025

[Review] Spy x Family CODE: White (Anime & Movie Spoilers!)

Written by: Katherine CaĂąeba | @kcserinlee I had been hoping to publish this post soon after having seen the movie, but life happened. So here I am, almost two years behind schedule. Still, better late than never! After the seemingly endless wait (for me, at least) from the Christmas 2023 release of the movie Spy x Family CODE: White in Japan to its North American … Continue reading [Review] Spy x Family CODE: White (Anime & Movie Spoilers!)

[Event Review] Yama-Con 2025

By: Krow Smith | @coffeewithkrow As someone who didn’t go to cons, I am certainly making up for it now. With Yama-Con being my third full convention experience in this year alone, I’m gathering quite a familiarity with them. While Yama-Con was well reviewed by Peggy (@pswediting) last year, I feel it’s time for an update on how it was for 2025. Instead of a … Continue reading [Event Review] Yama-Con 2025

[Recommended Read] Let me tell you all about Sweet Rein… again~

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting December has started again, yet it isn’t the holiday season for me until I’ve re-read Yoroshiku Master (Sweet Rein, in the English translation)… again! A few years ago, I wrote about the series here, and—exciting news—the English translation is finally available on Amazon once more. I’m absolutely elated, and decided that I must discuss this series again in the hopes that … Continue reading [Recommended Read] Let me tell you all about Sweet Rein… again~

Ranma 1/2: Akane’s Potential Pansexuality

By: Jenna Morgan | @jennasoccerm Author note: I refer to Ranma as “he” since that’s what he refers to himself as, even in a feminine form. Nostalgia! Seems to be the ticket to our eyes, hearts, and wallets. Producers have been doing this for what seems like decades now—redoing everything that was made before that was deemed successful and loved. At this point, a lot … Continue reading Ranma 1/2: Akane’s Potential Pansexuality

Follow-Up: Who Made Me a Princess (Episodes 1-5 Impressions + Spoilers!)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting As of Episode 5, I feel like Who Made Me a Princess has been making enough distinguishable differences that it’s truly becoming its own series. And honestly? It’s better than I initially thought or gave it credit for in my initial review. The first three episodes left me underwhelmed, especially as a longtime fan of the webtoon. However, with … Continue reading Follow-Up: Who Made Me a Princess (Episodes 1-5 Impressions + Spoilers!)

[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
