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? Not so for melancholic author Osamu Dazai, who would quite literally prefer to drop dead. Video games haven’t even been invented yet when he gets yanked into another world in 1948.

My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s Season 1
Oda Akira is the kind of guy who people forget is even there. His unassuming nature pays off, though, when his entire class is swept away to a fantasy world, and he slips easily into his new role as a silent assassin. Between his suspiciously high starting stats and too many details that don’t fit,

Campfire Cooking in Another World Season 2
ISEKAI’D BY: Summoning! As always, I’m in LOVE with this series and I’m delighted to have a second season. Karen and I walk to it as it was released. And look! They kept the style of the closing! As always, it’s a beautiful anime with amazing food animation (and plenty of product placement to fund
M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: OP Protag
The main character is so strong and capable that their very presence guarantees that the problem will be resolved. Usually the fun is seeing HOW they will resolve the problem.
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.
