Wortenia Senki (LN) (JP) vol 6 This is my daily practice reading, so I only read about 20-30 minutes of it per day... and even then it's a fairly slow reading pace. I do enjoy it a lot though. Particularly Wortenia. I'd really like it to get licensed to be honest. And this volume is almost like...

^Rail Wars? :P Shield Hero ep 13 I maintain that this adaptation is actually better than the light novels. It feels like the characters are a lot less stupid, particularly in episodes like this. Granted, that's probably more due to poor writing and/or translation of the novel... but yeah. Good...

Hope so - the characters, world and story definitely deserve to leave a better impression than the anime did. Even with my extremely rose-tinted glasses I could barely call that palatable :confused: I'd be curious to find out if there's any differences in the manga. Maybe I'll read it at some...

Well the light novel has been stuck at volume 4 for a while, so I'd guess the manga adapts either the first 3 (and ends at the same point as the anime) or all 4. I personally love the light novel, but then again I did finish gushing over NGNL so perhaps that's no surprise :P

No Game No Life (LN) vol 8 I LOVE NO GAME NO LIFE FAR TOO MUCH. Seriously. It's so problematic in so many ways but I always find myself so absorbed in it anyway and then despairing when I reach the end of a volume. There's no way I can give an even slightly objective view on it because I enjoy...

Ace of the Diamond: Act II ep 1 I'm happy to see this show back. I'm very fond of sports shounen and this is definitely among the better ones. Huh, I suppose that makes sense. Honestly, I was already convinced the Queen was Francine, so I didn't notice that it could be taken like that as it was...

Not that it's a surprise, but I'm glad to see Ace of the Diamond there :) There's less than 10 shows this season I have any interest in at all, and that may well end up lower after an episode or two. Barring recommendations from others it's not going to be a busy season for me...

Date A Live S3 ep 12 Well, considering they were adapting an entire volume into a single episode they did a pretty good job. Not much more to say than that; far too compressed of course, but coulda been a lot worse. Overall, for me personally, this series was an 8/10. I know that objectively it...

Yeah, I'm glad they're not doing another character creator one. Gotta respect them trying something a bit different with Fatal Bullet but it just didn't really work... even ignoring the meh gameplay. That said, I'm not sure how much value there is in a more-or-less straight adaptation of the...

Got high hopes for Senryuu Girl at least, hope they won't get betrayed!

I Saved Too Many Girls and Caused the Apocalypse! (LN) vol 13 Honestly don't have anything interesting to say about this volume as it's largely the same as the preceding 12 volumes. Though I suppose that means it isn't bad at least. Still no danger of a plot developing despite there only being 3...

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure ep 25 Good ep, a genuinely scary situation and stand battle. I actually genuinely jumped when Notorious BIG hit the window next to Trish near the end. Even though it was obviously coming. And that's not a sentence that makes any sense outside of context... Looking...

Girly Air Force ep 12 Pretty good final episode. Not anything exactly unexpected, but good nevertheless. Overall this gets a 5/10 from me. It's basically just a fairly generic LN adaptation, but it's solid and avoids a lot of the major problems that tend to come with that while having some...

86 (LN) vol 1 Well. I can certainly understand why this has a good rep. That was pretty darn impressive. Intense, well-paced... heart-rendingly painful. In the best possible way. Every time it gives you hope, it ruthlessly rips it away. Right until the end, when you've contented yourself with...

It's nice that CR seem to be starting to get more films now. Or is that just my imagination? Either way, I'll probably be watching Trinity Seven at some point at least...

Shield Hero ep 12 Plot continues to develop with hints of more at work. The battle with Glass displays the overwhelming power difference. Everything proceeding smoothly. I run out of things to say about shows when I know the source material... Kemurikusa ep 12 Well, this ep did somewhat...

Run With the Wind ep 23 Well, they definitely found a good way to make it feel like Kansei won without being completely unrealistic. A great episode to finish on. Overall, this series gets an 8/10 from me. It's been well-paced (one or two minor timeskips aside) and enjoyable to watch with a good...

Reborn as a Vending Machine, Now I Wander the Dungeon (LN) vol 3 The novelty was beginning to wear off a bit, really. Becoming a bit formulaic. Also, the whole "I'm a vending machine so don't feel anything but these girls are cute" thing it has going on is happening just a bit too much to be...

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime ep 24.5 Did they just make the last episode a recap-ish episode? Honestly I'm amused more than anything. That said, Veldora was quite entertaining. And we got some insight into Ifrit. Overall the series gets a 7/10, although it might be more of a 6.5. No...

Looking forward to seeing what you think of Abilities Average, it's one of my favourite LNs :P
