I’m the Villainess, So I’m Taming the Final Boss
Y’all have no idea how jazzed I was to see that this is an anime. I’ve read the manga a few times, but the manga stops right after she successfully stops the Demon Lord from changing. Imagine my surprise at the second half of the series!! And I also am collecting the light novel series…

I Left My A-Rank Party to Help My Former Students Reach the Dungeon Depths! Season 1

To Your Eternity 1-21
I’ve always been somewhat in love with this series. And recently I’ve had the joy to get my digital collection up to date— for a long time I only had the ten volumes from a Humble Bundle—and since I was sick, I figured I would slam it back. And my god, did I weep exactly…

New World: An Anthology of Sci-Fi and Fantasy
Aaah… what a stupendous collection, with so many big names in comics! My favorite in this anthology ended up being Written in Stone, by Carla Speed McNeil. I ended up reading it three times back to back, and then once more before I put down the book. (I reread it when I opened the book…

ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! I’m The Villainess, So I’ll Just Beat Up My Problems! After dying in a traffic accident, I wound up in an otome game world. What’s more, I swapped places with a girl named Alexandra. The so-called heroine had already bewitched Alexandra’s fiancé–the second prince–and set her up as the villainess. To make…

Stab the Rabbit
This book is just a way to alleviate some masculine violence, bro. I’m not joking. It’s got a few stories in it and it takes a juvenile delight in using slurs and doesn’t really have a care for being “politically correct”, as angry male comics would put it. They let you know right in the…

What Happened at the Hypnosis Massage Shop?
Eh, fuck it, I’ve been reviewing porn, just this one is the most obvious. It’s weird and contrived, like 99% of porn out there. But the art is pretty great! It’s silly in that… well. MC goes to a women-only massage parlor, meets the masseuse who does NOT hide his intentions even a little bit,…
Trigger Warning: Manipulation
Welcome to the Menagerie.
Here is where M logs their media activity. Partly because Goodreads is forgettable and keeping physical logs is harder. Sometimes M writes a lot. Sometimes M doesn’t write enough. It doesn’t matter. This is just a for-fun little blog so that M can remember what they thought about whatever they watched or read or played or. Whatever.
What is M?
I read. Voraciously. I have subscriptions to those book things on digital retailers. I consume books at nearly all hours. The hours I don’t spend reading? I’m writing. I’m drawing. I have a problem. I have a problem in that I love to read things that are in the same vein repeatedly. Book journals don’t work and as much as I text my friends screenshots of book passages, it doesn’t scratch the itch. Now I’m going to be doing… tiny… tiny book reports.
