I have started re-reading my Junji Ito books.
Forgot how creepy and weird his stories and art are.
I’ve been reading chainsaw man as the chapters come out. I’m not sure how to feel about this latest arc though. The next season of the anime is going to be great though.
I’m more than halfway through Dororo at the moment and finding it hard going TBH. Last time an Anime made me feel like this was the latter half of Born in Abyss :-/
EDIT: forgot to mention that I’m also slowly reading the manga of Bakuon, which has a lot of little bits that didn’t make it into the anime.
Watching the second season of Assassination Classroom. It’s a surprisingly wholesome meditation on teaching wrapped up in a shounen high school story.
Currently reading Boy’s Abyss and it’s quite the peak soap opera drama. Side effect: feels like you’re losing brain cells while reading
Birdie Wings: Golf Girls Story
It’s an anime about–golf. No, I am not kidding, trust me it’s good, and and it’s very well made considering the sport lol. It’s about two girls who are golf geniuses, and they play golf for the fun of it, but life keeps on getting in the way for our main character Eve. I liked it, and it’s a good comfort anime to watch.
Yeah, it’s amazing. It gets a little less over-the-top in the school arc (and I need to catch up) but even for someone like me who loathes golf irl this is a fun watch __
Waiting patiently for the next chapter of Berserk.
The wait is real bros.
Reading: The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady
It’s so wholesome, I love it
I just finished this season’s Rokudo no Onna-tachi, which was criminally slept on because its premise sounds like it could get squicky (it never does). I also watched uh, Yuusha ga Shinda, Mashle (great but not slept on), and also kamikatsu which I plan on never ever telling anyone in real life I watched.
I’m also watching Bleach for the first time in 2023. People baited me into thinking it’d be bad but the soul society arc slapped. We’ll see how the Arrancar arc holds up.
Got a bunch of shows I need to finish, including Oshi no Ko (a number episodes behind on that). Witch from Mercury was the most recent thing I watched.
It’s been harder keeping up with anime once I got into manga.
There were so many to watch last season that Oshi no Ko got thrown into my “binge at the end of the season” bin. looking forward to it with all the attention it got.
Do light novels count? I’m absolutely devouring Tearmoon Empire for the time being cause it is a great stress reliever!
I’d say they do, only been pushed to read 2 through their anime though, Overlord and Ascendance of a Bookworm
Ooh I hope so! I’ve been reading Kumo Desu Ga, Nani Ka? for a while now
I’d been following the manga for that and I heard it diverges significantly from the LN (like, cutting out the entire human half of the story). Watching the show was an… interesting experience.
It does, you don’t have to get very far into it to start seeing where it diverges. The anime was hilarious to me, dunno if it’s for everyone though
