Having left the village he's spent his whole life in, Yuru finds himself in Tokyo, a vast city with technology that's completely alien to him. But while he should be laying low, Yuru can't help but wonder where his sister Asa is...

Right, those are all valid points but we're ignoring how much work has gone into creating these sets, which is not insignificant when they're new designs/materials which needs several people to produce / get approvals for / etc. etc. I'm by no means blind to the fact they're CEs because that's...
I think the prices are a difficult one as I’ll be more than happy to pay whatever for Shirobako given it’s the whole series in a nice package. However, it is harder to justify Kids on the Slope which has comparably very little in the way of extras. I always want a CE for anything I’m going to...
Personally, I'm very much looking forward to picking up Shirobako and was very happy when AL announced they had it at MCM. Tempted by Kids on the Slope as well since I don't own the previous release, but depends on the price as there's not a lot in the way of extras there to entice me if it's...
With Mizuhara struggling after the loss of a loved one, Kazuya goes all out in creating the perfect date plan. But will he be able to break through her walls and get her to open up to him about her feelings?

As someone with a little more understanding of how QA works in publishing, that to me actually makes more sense than if a character was misnamed throughout a work. It just means whatever happened revolved around that particular page, which in the grand scheme of things is easy to understand...

Kei Sazane, the mind behind Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World, returns to the English market with a new series: Gods' Games We Play. Here humans compete with gods in the Gods' Games in the hopes of getting a wish granted and protagonist Fay is in for all kinds of fun when he's...
October haul time already. A much quieter month for a change:
Little bit more on the digital side:
A few new things but largely continuing ongoing series. Super HxEros finally finishes, which I didn't think I would feel happy about but the last few volumes have felt like padding...
Out shopping one day, Shintaro encounters a schoolgirl in need of help. Later it turns out she's a vampire and that she even attends his school! Our protagonist is left wondering why he attracts so many supernatural beings while contending with the chaos it causes in his everyday life...
I'll be at the Edinburgh side as well. Planning on seeing:
Gold Kingdom and Water Kingdom
Summer Ghost (since I have somehow missed out on all the other screenings of this previously)
Tekkonkinkreet
Lonely Castle in the Mirror
The Concierge
Blue Giant
Komada - A Whisky Family
Galaxy Express...
I'm Giving the Disgraced Noble Lady I Rescued a Crash Course in Naughtiness follows protagonist Allen who finds a young woman collapsed in the forest near his home. She's a wanted criminal from a neighbouring country, but learning she's been framed for crimes she didn't commit and lived a...
