Magus of the Library Volume 2 Review

Magus of the Library continues to impress with its likeable characters, fascinating story and beautiful artwork. Now that my concerns from the end of Volume 1 have been alleviated, I’m looking forward to seeing where Theo’s journey takes him and if he truly can become a Kafna.

Overlord III Review

Overlord III is stronger than the previous season in its approach to exploring its world and showcasing the advancements in Ainz's kingdom-building. Where its flaws lie are in some wonky CGI and a lack of tension in places due to Ainz's level of control.

Dragon Ball Super – Part 7 Review

Dragon Ball Super – Part 7 gets off to an exciting and high-impact start, before settling into a long stretch of what can only be described as filler, despite the series not being based on a manga… Is it still worth a watch though?

Fate/Grand Order -mortalis: stella- Volume 1

Fate/Grand Order -mortalis: stella- is what you'd expect from a soulless manga adaptation of a video game; you’re better off re-watching the anime film First Order again rather than giving this a read.

Silver Spoon Volume 10 Manga Review

Volume 10 is a lot of fun, as is expected for Silver Spoon, and maintains the quality in story and characters established by mangaka Hiromu Arakawa so far. We get some character development for Hachiken and Komaba, get to witness the production and sale of sausages and meet a colourful new character in Shingo's Russian wife Alexandra.

Eromanga Sensei Part 1 Review

Eromanga Sensei Part 1 offers an entertaining and lovable comedy about family and working in the light novel industry. While some viewers will be put off by a potential sibling romance, I hope they can still look past it to discover the genuinely great anime underneath.

Kokkoku: Moment by Moment Review

Kokkoku: Moment by Moment throws in a lot of interesting ideas around the consequences of stopping time, life and death amidst a cat-and-mouse game plot that sees one woman try to rescue her family from a crazed religious cult. However, it fails to execute on its potential as it struggles with poor pacing, gaping plot holes, and finding an ending for its characters.

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing Part 1 Review

While this might be the series that made Gundam popular in the USA, if you have seen the original 1979 series, then Gundam Wing feels rather repetitive.
