I think Kaguya-sama was probably one of the only romance anime that came out of last season to really capture my attention. There were definitely a few too many shonen harem anime during the winter, and that’s not usually a genre I know I’ll enjoy. But I think Kaguya-sama did a phenomenal job capturing the … More Kaguya-sama: Love is War Anime Review
And we’re back with another look at Fruits Basket, this time volume five of the collector’s edition. I’ve been surprisingly having a lot of fun rereading this series and even more fun reviewing it. I’ve been loving taking these deep dives into each volume and pulling apart the different arcs of character growth and philosophical … More Fruits Basket Manga Read-Through: Collector’s Edition Volume Five
It’s that time again, time to take another dive into some nostalgic shoujo romance, more Fruits Basket.

Welcome back to the next post in my read-through of Fruits Basket, where I’m finally going back and finishing this series after years of not getting the chance to complete it.

So far, we’ve read the first volume of the collector’s edition series from Yen Press which had chapters 1-12. Today, we’re continuing on … More Fruits Basket Manga Read-Through: Collector’s Edition Volume Two
It’s been such a long time since I’ve thought about Fruits Basket. It was one of the first shoujo manga I ever read and I think I still have some of the original manga volumes. But manga was expensive for a middle-schooler in those days, rising to 10 dollars per volume in high school, so … More Fruits Basket Manga Read-Through: Collector’s Edition Volume One
No matter the platform, comics have always been a staple reading material for me since middle school, especially webcomics. I got drawn in at a fairly early age due to one of my cousins creating his own long-running web comic for pretty much as long as I’ve known him. Slowly that love of comics branched … More Three WebToon Recommendations for Romance Fans
There are few things I love more than cooking manga, except apparently cooking manga combined with gay relationships. What Did You Eat Yesterday is an interesting take on both cooking manga and boys love, though I guess you wouldn’t call it boys love since both main characters are 40-year-old men, but you get my point. … More What Did You Eat Yesterday? Manga Volume One Review
It’s been awhile since I’ve done something other than an anime or manga review on this blog, so I think tonight I’d like to return to the world of comics, more specifically indie comics and graphic novels. Tonights review is a independent comic by Keezy Young called Taproot. I picked up this comic last October … More Taproot Paranormal Romance Comic Review
Valentine’s Day is behind us but I think it’s important to continue thinking about romance and the kind of impact these kinds of stories have on readers. It’s one of the reasons I created this blog and continue to return to romance series. Reading romance books and manga were majorly important to me when I … More Waxing Philosophical: What We Can Learn from even the Trashiest of Romances
