I bought a CZ 75 because of Rally Vincent. True story.
Rally would insist on an early "short-rail" variant instead, though.

Welcome, all, again. As regular readers will know, I tend to gravitate towards slice-of-life series. However, I might seem to some to be a bit generous with that designation, including series that [...]

Anime Herald - We'll talk nerdy to you.
Well, this is some sad news to report on New Year’s Eve. Netflix revealed their list of shows that will be leaving the platform in January. Among [...]

Among the fundamental facts that are essential to deciphering who I am, along with why a person would write fifty-plus paragraphs on a single topic, is this: I spend way too much time thinking about [...]

The final volume of the Gunslinger Girl manga arrived today. The first surprise were the words “heartwarming conclusion” in the blurb on the back cover. The second surprise was that Yu Aida really did pull it off (perhaps the third surprise is seeing Jean finally treat Rico as decently as she has long deserved). God, I’m […]

Well, this week I managed to finish an omnibus I’d gotten some weeks ago and managed to forget I owned. Part of this might have been a little bit on purpose – I’ve seen Gunslinger Girl, and re-reading the manga can be rather tedious for those parts already covered, unless they offer anything new on [...]

by dm00 Well: that’s pretty conclusive. There’s not a lot one can say about the sixth omnibus collection of Gunslinger Girl without bringing in spoilers, but I am going to try to avoid them. This book is full of ghosts. You know it’s going to be grim by the time you get to page three. […]

2011 lulled me into a false sense of security. Metal Fighter Miku was far from the best anime I ever watched but it was not horrible. In fact we loved episode ten. And we actually had to CHOOSE between that and Rune Soldier. It was so nice to participate in secret Santa and not make [...]

Okay, something a little different since there appears to be a void of sorts after my classes started. One of my classes actually has me reading manga and comparing them (yeah, I know right?!), so I figured I’d post my journals on here for anyone who is interested. Who knows, you might become interested in [...]
