Fire in His Fingertips: A Flirty Fireman Ravishes Me with His Smoldering Gaze Volume 1 Review

Fire in His Fingertips offers something different in the mature manga section. While I wish it wasn’t quite so wishy-washy with consent in the first chapter, the series offers a likeable cast and entertaining story. If nothing else it’s sure to set your heart alight!

Suppose a Kid From the Last Dungeon Boonies Moved to a Starter Town Volume 1 Review

Suppose a Kid From the Last Dungeon Boonies Moved to a Starter Town offers an entertaining fantasy adventure. While an overpowered protagonist unaware of their powers is certainly not a new idea, the characters and striking art style more than make up for it. This is a release not to be missed!

Samurai 8 – The Tale of Hachimaru Volume 1 Review

Samurai 8 is the next Shonen Jump story penned by Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto (although it's drawn by Akira Okubo). Following up ninjas with samurai makes sense; following up ninjas with space-travelling cyborg samurai might be going too far…

King’s Game The Animation Review

King’s Game The Animation proves an entertaining entry in the horror genre. It has a reputation for being a terrible anime but, provided you don’t take it seriously, there is a compelling narrative to be found here.
