Fall in Love, You False Angels Volume 1 Manga Review

Mar 10, 12:00

1 comment

manga

If there’s a theme to be traced in this volume, it’s the idea of when it’s okay to be two-faced. ― When is it safe to be yourself? That's maybe a more intense question than you'd expect from Fall in Love, You False Angels, which is unquestionably a romantic comedy. But that doesn't mean that it lacks any heavier subtext, and the story of Otogi and Toki can be read in such a way to facilitate discussi...

The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold To Another Kingdom Volume 1 Novel Review

Mar 9, 12:00

1 comment

novels

With a very readable translation and art that’s pretty enough, this is an easy read. ― Light novels certainly don't lack for terrible families. Beleaguered protagonists often suffer at the hands of callous stepmothers, dreadful siblings, and neglectful fathers, no matter what the genre. The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold to Another Kingdom is no exception. Although it plays wit...

Futari wa Pretty Cure may be where the franchise started, but this is where it starts to hit its stride. ― Each season of the greater Pretty Cure franchise typically brings something new to the table. That all begins with Pretty Cure Splash Star. The second team of Cures may have looked awfully similar to the first, but this latter half of their story cements them as not only very much their own team...
