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

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

    Harem Scale H: Yuke has a pretty solid sense of justice. That sense is shared by Clover (the party). A: Yuke is very aware of the fact that he is the only man in a party of women and brings it up repeatedly. He is actively trying to support the women and tries not to…

  • To Your Eternity 1-21

    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…

  • Outbride: Beauty and the Beasts 1

    Outbride: Beauty and the Beasts 1

    ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! Noel is endgame for me. That said, I totally think Mashiro reacts appropriately to being resurrected to be a breeder with four dudes, one of which tries to fuck her like, right away, until another one barges in and basically says, “that’s not fair, bro, we gotta talk about who gets her…

  • The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest

    The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest

    So I only made it through 6 episodes. Usually when I drop anything, it’s because it’s offensively bad. This is not the case. I dropped this because… it’s not… great. It’s not bad, either. It’s mediocre. Middle of the road. It sure does exist and it sure does sit comfortably in the tropes. It doesn’t…

  • The Substance

    The Substance

    In the pursuit of youth and beauty, you rob yourself. That’s the most basic message in the Substance. The very least you can get from it. But we can expand on that, can’t we? The disposal of aging women in our society, the need to meet male standards for women’s beauty, the men in position…

  • Stab the Rabbit

    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…

    ED Shachou to Bishonure Cinderella

    Now that I have that out of my system— Okay, for real this time. The ML is a sad sack who can’t get it up until he meets shortstack sweaty girl MC. When he smells the delicious smell of her sweat, porno vision turns on and he goes batshit. This is hilarious. It’s so stupid.…

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.
