With this post, I am finally sort of back to normal with these Weekly Shonen’s. This post is also not suuuuper late, which is always an expected, but good thing! Anyway, fun Shonen this week, especially One Piece! Then again, One Piece is almost always good. Bleach 492 Not much happened this time (big surprise, [...]

Okay, that was a nice snow episode, I guess. Anyway, we get to see out middle school heroines do random things. The nice thing about the episode is it builds the relationship between the students and the teacher (or sensei). We also get to learn how that the teacher is actually a pervert (and that was expected). The story so far doesn’t really…[Read more]

The episode is so saddening and dark especially at the beginning when Irisviel got very weak. Anyway, Kiritsugu and Saber pretty much try to look for Rider and Archer for the entire episode. It’s not just only that, there’s a lot more shocking dark events in this episode and it’s filling up for the next episode. Though I’m kinda displeased that on…[Read more]

Mangaka: Kazuo Koike Genre: Action/Historical/Drama Review Status: Complete (4 Volumes/4 Volumes) Licensed: Yes, this manga is licensed by Darkhorse in the US. Art: This overall looks really good. This keeps to realistic anatomy while looking…refined, for lack of a better word. It also uses a lot of light and dark imagery, rarely going into shades [...]

Ammtoday has begun a blog similar to ours, examining Christianity through anime.  A post this past week compares a scene in the manga, From Far Away, to Jesus’ temptations in the wilderness, and encourages us to find power in weakness. [Anime and Manga Industries Today] Ben Ettinger gives a very thorough review of the Happy [...]

After my last post ‘Appearances can be Deceiving‘, I realized that what I called a ‘deceiving start’ was not the only thing that could make one drop a show. While it is the most common reason, one’s Level of Maturity also plays a pretty huge part in how much one is able to understand and appreciate [...]

…It has been a long time since I last posted about Accel World. Now let’s get started.Anyway, Arita continues to talk and start to team up with this mysterious girl and meanwhile, Mayuzumi faces head on against Burakku.
