I’m crying about being bad about the pace at which I read these, then continue to go disgustingly slow. I hate myself when I’m more interested in other things. (more…)

Entry #16: Koi wo Suru no ga Shigoto desu. (SoM 2018)
When I said that sex should be more prominent in anime (or manga), this wasn’t really what I meant. (more…)
Entry #15: W Change!! (SoM 2018)
Y’know, this story’s almost not worth a full-fledged review. I think I’ll just point out various observations I had while reading it. Spoilers ahead. (more…)
Entry #14: Criminale! (SoM 2018)
This is a cautionary tale when it comes to the thing I most desire with great executions of really stupid concepts. Take Miman Renai, one of my favorite manga only for the sake of its expressive and overly-optimistic tone. It was a really stupid and potentially problematic story between a near-thirty gal game producer and a naively pure middle school girl. What it managed to create was an atmosphere that made it obvious from the start that it was stupid and shouldn’t be taken too seriously (though also struggled with maintaining it; more on this soon). Reality kicked in, which was better suited for a tale involved in reality, whereas Criminale! is so absurdly stupid in both setting and the reality it presents that I cannot for the life of me think of why it decided to ever take itself seriously. The final battle arrives, a boss that has taken down likely hundreds of stories that start off as something zany and fun: The “S” word. Seriousness. (more…)
Entry #13: Good Night World (SoM 2018)
There are two things you need to read this manga:
- An open mind.

It’ll be short this time around. There’s really not much I can say about this manga without just laughing the whole thing out the door. (more…)
Entry #12: Soredemo Boku wa Kimi ga Suki (SoM 2018)
I’m gonna try and frame this review in a fashion similar to how this manga structures its story. Buckle up. (more…)
Entry #11: Shimanami Tasogare (SoM 2018)
Let’s make some generalizations. (more…)
