SPYXFAMILY Part 1: Review

I wrote about SPYXFAMILY, and it actually might be my favourite Shonen Jump story ever.

So! I finished this. Family is a precious thing that a lot of us have. Love is a thing that runs through most of those families. But for those who haven’t been cared for and had to push their emotions down, those who are looking for love from anyone for the 1st time, and those who feel they are unloveable because of their past and present actions, family can be hard. So what happens when you put…

Genshin Impact Rambles: Natlan Archon Quests Pt 1.

It's time for Tournament arcs, fated battles, and inherited destiny. Let's look at the 1st part of Genshin's Natlan Arc!

4 whole years, and we are still going on with this. Yet this feels like the most interesting update Genshin is getting in recent memory for reasons that I’ll get into later. Genshin has been going on strong for 4 years, and it doesn’t seem like it somehow doesn’t seem like it’s stopping anytime soon, despite this arc basically being the beginning of the end for Genshin. But what challenges does…

Rambling about Classic Sport Racing

So, uh… I don’t know how this happened. Like with the last game we looked at, Virtua Unlimited Project, I tried this out at a Steam Next Fest all the way back in October 2022. Again I just keep these games on my wishlist usually, but then, I got another random DM after liking one of their posts, and I got offered a key to try the game out! Me, who isn’t really lucky when it comes to these things.…

Rinkai: Review

Hello again! Rinkai was something I knew nothing about before writing about the 1st impressions. I did enjoy that 1st episode, but from there, how did things go? Can Ito survive in this world of professional cycling? Let’s find out. So the story is once, again very simple when it comes down to it, and things are more on the characters. After the 1st episode, Ito consults her grandma about…

HighSpeed Etoile: Review

HighSpeed Etoile just finished airing, so I decided to write about it, and it was a fun watch!

This just finished up, so it’s time to write about it! In the 1st episode, we got introduced to a lot of things about the series, but now the championship starts. So, how does this year’s NEX-Race series play out? Can Rin find success in this series? How will the two rookies do? Can Alice overhaul Lorenzo to win the big prize? Let’s find out. So to start off, the story is actually surprisingly…

RINKAI! : First Impression

Even more racing anime, but this time we switch out cars for track bikes in Rinkai!!!

So, spring anime and the Cycling Spring Classics have sprung. And in that spirit, we are going to be looking at a cycling anime! I don’t know much about this, but when I saw it was gonna get an airing slot alongside HighSpeed Etolle in what is already a very stacked Spring Season of anime, I decided, to give this a look, cause I like both anime and cycling. I don’t know much about this, so let’s…

HIGHSPEED Étoile: First Impressions

It's time to go racing once again with Highspeed Etoile!!

So, I probably should have written about this beforehand but, eh, it can be hard to get English-subbed trailers for anime sometimes. I’ve been following this since it was announced, and every trailer I’ve seen has looked pretty good honestly, With this being an anime that has the backing of Super Formula, Japan’s premiere racing series, and also racing on real tracks that are used in F1 such as…

Boneko Demo: Review

Hey! Here’s another one of these old articles. Granted, IDK if this game is still being worked on, but eh, I do still like this quite a bit. I was gonna do a new small thing, but this month got kinda of busy at the end, plus I kind of ended up working a lot more on the editorial, so that will be out next month alongside 2 anime 1st impressions! But here’s one about Boneko, a cat platformer that…

OVERTAKE! Review

And it's go, go, go! I watched the rest of Overtake, and it's pretty good!

Happy New Year! Sorry for this being so late, but I’ve been away if you can’t tell. But this anime has been very enjoyable to watch, and I’ve been eager to write about it. So, what does the journey for Komeki Motors have to give us. Can Haruka upset the team Bellssriso? Let’s find out. As always, spoilers are abounding, and I’m watching the sub version. So there is some story to go through,…

Update: 2023 in review, and the road forward

One last update for 2023!

Hello again! By the time you’re reading this, I’m probably up in the air somewhere or already suffering the horrors of a family vacation. Before all of that though, I just wanted to reflect on 2023 and just see where the road might take me next. Immediate Plans, away for now, but we come back stronger. So no matter what, you’re probably seeing this on December 15th. Depending on what happens,…

Genshin Impact Rambles: Fontaine Story Quest Pt 2.

I played Genshin Impact's latest big update, and everything is slowly coming together. Check it out here:

Hello! It’s time to get into the rest of Genshin’s newest Archon quest. Last time around, we ended up introducing ourselves to Fontaine, and meeting a good chunk of the cast, in what I felt was a good introduction to the region, though everything felt like it wrapped up a bit too neatly. But what awaits us going forward? What’s gonna happen to Chlide? What’s the deal with Furnia and what is The…
