[Review/Recommended Read] I Woke Up as an Imprisoned Villainess (Spoilers!)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting A few weeks ago, while reviewing newsletters in search of a new series, I came across I Woke Up as an Imprisoned Villainess. The cover was mildly engaging and reminded me of stories that often feature twins or long-lost siblings—the kind of narrative I’m a sucker for. Intrigued, I clicked the link and read the description, which revealed the … Continue reading [Review/Recommended Read] I Woke Up as an Imprisoned Villainess (Spoilers!)

[Review] How Dare You!? – Cheng He Titong: A Must-Watch Romance Drama

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

Still, I’ve wanted to write this post for a while and to give my take so… here we go!

[Recommended Read] “Time and Again” by Yun Ji Woon

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

[Review] Kodansha Samplers from AX 2024

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

[Review] Ace’s Story (The Manga)

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)

[Review] Under the Oak Tree (Advance Reader Copy)

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)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Hello, Everyone!

If any of you saw our announcement on June 29th, I was set to present 4 times during AX this year (and … Continue reading [Event Review] Anime Expo 2024 Presenting and Attending

[Recommended Read] The (Overly) Competent Aide is Given A Leading Role!: Please Repent, Your Grace!

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Manhwa, the Korean term for comics or graphic novels, has gained immense popularity worldwide for its diverse genres and unique storytelling. One particular trope that often appears in manhwa is the overly competent aide to an already overly competent character who provides essential support to the main protagonist (or main love interest) often behind the scenes but making brief, … Continue reading [Recommended Read] The (Overly) Competent Aide is Given A Leading Role!: Please Repent, Your Grace!

[Reflection] Ranting About Ben 10 – A Repost

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting This is a repost of a blog post that I published years ago on a blog that no longer exists. I admit that I am being a bit lazy here by reposting this with some edits, but I never quite got the feedback I was looking for then, and I kind of hope I can get some now. So, … Continue reading [Reflection] Ranting About Ben 10 – A Repost
