No Longer Allowed in Another World Vol. 3-9
ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! (this entry does not add to the total) I ended up reading all the volumes I had in a row. I enjoyed the comedy, meeting the fucked up fallen angels— and then found that there’s rewriting powers, so things get reset, except they don’t, and also Sacchan is kinda an asshole. I

No Longer Allowed in Another World Vol. 1-2
ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! An adventure in another world with cute girls by your side and video game-like powers–sounds like an anime fan’s dream, right?

My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s Season 1

M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: Evil Eyes & Big Heart
A character has eyes that are stereotypically harsh and angry, but they’re an incredibly kind person. Basically Delinquent with Heart of Gold but not always Delinquent.
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.
