Frieren eps 22-28 (dub) (complete) Dungeon crawling and interview. There was a nice balance between chill moments and action in the first half, but the second half with the exam arc tipped the balance towards action and whilst it was intriguing with the various tactics both the first 2 stages...

Frieren eps 15-21 (dub) Directional decision and first round of the exam. 7 episodes is normally a bit too much for me, but the 4th of the block started round one of the exam arc, which I assume may end up being the rest of the season because there's a round 2 coming. I felt compelled to keep...

Haven't had a new one in ages. Fern from Frieren:

Frieren eps 12-14 (dub) New recruit and gift buying. Witch Hunter Robin eps 5-8 (dub) (rewatch) Dunno, 7 and 8 seemed episodic too. Maybe more interesting block of stories than the first though.

Frieren ep 11 (dub) Someone to remember me. Internet crapped out so picked something physical: Witch Hunter Robin eps 1-4 (dub) (rewatch) Saw this on AnimeCentral about 16/17 years ago and I remember liking it, but at the moment I have to say it's a bit boring. It's a "case of the week" format...

Frieren eps 5-10 (dub) This set showed just how well the production can handle action as well as the calmer moments and episode 10 is amazing! ! Zom 100 eps 10-12 (complete) Home invasion. Mad cap zombie romp with stuff to say about the human condition, the reveal at the end that . Fun...

Frieren ep 1-4 (dub) Nice and chill, if not a little sad at parts where the titular character has regrets. Also the art is quite lovely. The Masterful Cat is Depressed Again Today ep 13 (complete) The power of a good meal. Finally finished this, it was an OK SoL comedy and had some amusing...

Blumin' Yanks always have to go bigger! 😜 In the recovery ward now. Still feeling a bit woozy and in pain despite apparently having a cocktail of drugs! I think something nice and chill like Friren will be first off the list.

Nervous about tomorrow as I'm having an operation on a hernia! However got 6 weeks off for the recovery and lots of stuff in the backlog pile to keep me busy! Speaking with a colleague that had one it was supposed to be 8 weeks after the pre-op appointment, but turned into 8 months! That's...

Kiss the Scars of the Girls vol 2 Melodrama and star crossed friends.

When a Cat Faces West vol 3 4 chapters of new stories of varying enjoyment and 2 of a wrap up story which introduced a twist which untwisted itself and, sort of, explained Chima's predicament without actually solving it! Overall nice art and some good stories, but definitely not as good as...

When a Cat Faces West vol 2 That was a better volume. The majority were mysteries that they had to solve for themselves and some of the reasons for the Flow triggering were as moving as remember some of the Mushishi stories being.

When a Cat Faces West vol 1 This was on my wishlist because it's by the author of Mushishi and then it went on sale (still on till the 23rd) with the first vol only being $0.99! It's pretty much Mushishi, but set in modern times where Ginko Hirota, a 'Flow' dispersal expert, solves supernatural...

LOL, my fav won. If she's your least favourite guess we have to duke it out 😜 Yours was probably second for me though 😁

2 more Yuri first volumes: Kiss the Scars of the Girls vol 1 Sucks to be you. Yuri about vampires at school. Most of the girls are pretty tropey and the mystery of the dark past of the dark loner one was a) easy to guess and b) revealed too quickly. The peppy one does come off as too...

I enjoyed the first volume and @Dai who's read more was excited to see it get an adaptation.

Hit 200 hours on my first Elden Ring play through!

Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro vol 13 Unlucky for some. 16 came out today and I knew I was behind, but not that far!

Monologue Woven for You vol 3 (complete) Pretty good ending, although the reason why Haruka quit theatre was pretty dumb and her reaction was very melodramatic, although , so I suppose that would be a bit of a shock. Overall the relationship was very sweet though. 7/10
