    Deadman Wonderland Vol. 1-13

    After a powerful earthquake nearly destroyed all of Tokyo, a prison known as Deadman Wonderland rose from what was left of the city.

  • (Abu)Normal Ch. 1-20

    (Abu)Normal Ch. 1-20

    I’m fascinated by this manga. Here we have Eiko Abu who studies the people around her with an intense fervor in order to become closer to what people would consider normal. It’s her hobby and what she strives to do in everything… however, only knowing the interpretation of normal from others, she doesn’t possess the…

  • The Unsinkable Ship of Fools

    The Unsinkable Ship of Fools

    Fuck Capitalism and then Fuck Each Other The author lives that pure anarchist punk life and fuck, dude, I honestly think that they got it right. All those pretty ideals that psuedo punks, wishful punks, talk about. Those little touches that bring it in and make it vibe. This is full-on an anarchist sex train…

    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…

  • New World: An Anthology of Sci-Fi and Fantasy

    New World: An Anthology of Sci-Fi and Fantasy

    Aaah… what a stupendous collection, with so many big names in comics! My favorite in this anthology ended up being Written in Stone, by Carla Speed McNeil. I ended up reading it three times back to back, and then once more before I put down the book. (I reread it when I opened the book…

    I Tamed my Ex-Husband’s Mad Dog 1

    We love to see it. After stabbing her freshly exed husband through the leg— definitely fucking up his tibia and fibula for life— the Lady Lincke is banished to her family’s last holdings, House Paledawn. On the way she picks up a kid who believes his name is shit and takes him in as her…

  • The Purge: Election Year

    The Purge: Election Year

    ,,

    I find it funny that this movie came out in 2016, when Trump won the office for his first term. Like the other Purge film I talked about, the symbolism is in-your-face, criticizing the current government and begging people to trust the system and using their vote to change things rather than taking direct action.…

  • The Purge: Anarchy

    The Purge: Anarchy

    ,,

    As I watched it, I was laughing to myself. No wonder it is so popular a series. For people like me, it’s a criticism of the government putting systems in place that fuck over the lower class in order to build a world where those on top stay on top, enjoying the fruits of the…

    Father, I Don’t Want This Marriage

    Another isekai villainess manwha? A romcom? A— what did you say? Read until the end, you swear? What do you mean the male lead isn’t even the favorite male character? What do you mean you wept at the end??? What?!

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.
