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…

M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: Hypercompetent MC
They’re always a step ahead and have everything planned out. They know what you’re thinking and will always win through sheer brilliance. They think of everything and have plan Bs through Zs prepared. They’re also brilliant in every day life.
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.
