Owarimonogatari Part 2 Review

Owarimonogatari Part 2 offers an interesting story set in the middle of the series timeline. If you’re not a Kanbaru fan then you may find yourself lacking in enthusiasm for the first half of the book, but the final payoff makes it worth reading to the end.

Magus of the Library Volume 3 Review

Magus of the Library Volume 3 continues to offer a delightful and interesting read. This instalment brings an end to the first part of Theo’s story, which has been a wonderful tale from beginning to end. This is still a manga everyone should be reading.

Fire Force is a pretty decent shonen action show that has some really great moments when it touches upon the danger and heroics of being a firefighter. However, it is spoiled by the overuse of foreshadowing and unnecessary fanservice.
