Even Given the Worthless Appraiser Class, I’m Actually the Strongest

Letterkenny
As a whole, or for the rest of the seasons, whichever. Letterkenny was something we started watching with our buds— I’ve seen a bit of it before, yeah, and our buds reminded me it existed so I says, hell yeah. We’re gonna watch it. Pull it up. Now we just finished all twelve seasons and…

I May Be a Guild Receptionist, but I’ll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time
Bro, so, uh. This opening has absolutely no reason to go this hard. It legitimately looks better than the actual episodes. I. I admittedly. Have just sat and watched it a few times. The fuckin dinosaur and everything. Honestly, I really want to read the manga now because I. I want to see what else……

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…

Why Don’t You Eat Me, My Dear Wolf?
I threw the smut tag on here but it’s not until the final chapter (thankfully). This is a really soft, gentle manga.

Lout of the Count’s Family #3
Bro, I hadn’t even seen the announcement come out that #3 was released! (I’m behind on my email, leave me alone) Of course I dropped everything and picked it up. After all, the last book left me off right before Raon got his revenge. This one opens right up there. It’s a bit gruesome but…
Trope: Dangerous Reputation
This guy’s reputation is so insane that upon finding out their identity, people immediately shit their pants. They are Death with a capital D. They are the guy that most pray they never see. They look extremely cool when in their element.
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.
