The Condemned Villainess Goes Back in Time Novels 1-2 Review

Sep 6, 12:00 novels

The Condemned Villainess Goes Back in Time is one of the better villainess light novel series to make it over. ― Villainess stories, whether in novel, manga, or anime format, all share a few basic truths, and one of them is that if the “villainess” turns out to be good, it must follow that the “heroine” is actually bad.

Shadow of the Ninja Reborn Game Review

Sep 5, 12:00

games

Is Shadow of the Ninja Reborn a sharp remake of a semi-classic NES game? Or is it something much more? ― The original Shadow of the Ninja had its moment, but it wasn't very long.

It was rapidly swept aside without gaining se...

The film feels a bit awkward for non-diehard fans—but if you can push through that awkwardness, there's quite an exhilarating movie here. ― They say only one truth prevails, but is that the case with the mystery of The Bride of Halloween?

That doesn't mean that there aren't any—Doomsday With My Dog and Inubaka: Crazy for Dogs both have English editions, and that's not even counting series like Yuzu the Pet Vet with its periphery focus on canines.
