Bubblegum Crisis Perfect Collection Anime Review

Mar 20, 12:00

1 comment

anime

It's always the right time to discover, or rediscover Bubblegum Crisis, and this Perfect Collection from AnimEigo provides the ideal way to do so. ― A flagship title not just for AnimEigo, but for the anime medium itself, it's easy to see how Bubblegum Crisis caught on all those decades ago. It's arresting before you even know what it's about: a moody intro pans over grimy cyberpunk backdrops ripped ...

Him, the Smile, & Bloom Game Review

games

Although Him, the Smile, & Bloom wouldn't be the first otome game I'd recommend, it's still a good time. ― Although it's not unheard of (Norn9, anyone?), Him, the Smile, & Bloom isn't an otome game where you're forced to choose between romantic interests. Instead, when you pick which route you want to follow, you also pick which heroine you're playing – each love story unfolds between a specific coup...

A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans Novels 1-2 Review

novels

A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans gets more right than you might expect. ― Light novels and their adjacent media forms don't have a great track record when it comes to stories about teachers and students. You're much more likely to find works that play out the teacher/student romance fantasy or the hot school nurse daydream than anything more realistic. Even works focused on just the teac...

Corpse Blade Volume 1 Manga Review

Mar 17, 12:00

1 comment

manga

I desperately wanted to make a pun somewhere about how this volume just isn’t as fleshed out as it needs to be, but its problems run deeper than that. ― Do zombie apocalypse stories ever really go out of style? It's like a pendulum—usually spurred by one super-successful title, they'll go in full force for a while. Then maybe there's a brief lull when audiences start feeling sick of what's become an ...
