    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

  • The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest

    The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest

    So I only made it through 6 episodes. Usually when I drop anything, it’s because it’s offensively bad. This is not the case. I dropped this because… it’s not… great. It’s not bad, either. It’s mediocre. Middle of the road. It sure does exist and it sure does sit comfortably in the tropes. It doesn’t

    Let This Grieving Soul Retire

    Harem Scale H: MC elects to duck out of responsibility and send people on errands, only helping when he might get in trouble. A: He knows that these women are very attached to him and there’s lots of them. He will go on dates. R: He doesn’t really look at any of them romantically. E:

  • Welcome to Demon School Iruma-Kun Season 2

    Welcome to Demon School Iruma-Kun Season 2

    Here’s a list of tropes I’m adding because of this season: Granted some of these would have been fine to add before but it just hit me like a truck this time. This season we get to see more of the class— when Iruma has his evil cycle, he puts them purposefully into the spotlight.

  • Delico’s Nursery

    Delico’s Nursery

    This anime was actually recommended to me by my brother, so of course I just watched it the whole thing. I’m wondering if they wanted to make another season? I’m on stand by. The trailer gives you a sort of whimsical sense, right? Right? WRONG IT’S ONLY LIKE THAT FOR MAYBE TWO EPISODES, THIS IS

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.
