Preliminary (177/182 chp)
I think one of the most underrated pieces of a manga is the ending. -Or rather whether or not the story *HAS* an end. So many series just go on and on and wear out their welcome. One Piece is probably the quintessential example here, but far from the only offender. I'll avoid a spoiler for obvious reasons, but know that this series has an end. It doesn't overstay it's welcome, none of the characters fall victim to flanderization, the author doesn't ever put out chapters that scrape the bottom of the barrel for ideas, and from start to finish there's a sense of progression.

Ichigeki (Manga) add
Ichigeki is one of those manga that you can tell was written because the author wanted to write it, if that makes any sense. To be honest, I don't get it, but the passion put into this is palpable. It's a story about samurai cutting each other up. The art is pretty sketchy (sketch as in sketch-like not shady) which might put some people off but it didn't really detract from my experience. If you're looking for some good action, some good swordplay, or you just like samurais I'd say this is well worth checking out.

Another romcom with both good rom and com! This is the only anime coming to mind where I actually wholeheartedly enjoyed the slapstick. A lot of times I feel like it gets played up or exaggerated to a point where I start cringing. There's this unfortunate valley where a lot of anime fall into regarding their slapstick. On one end of the spectrum it's either deserved or spread out enough to feel casual. On the other end is Looney Toons, so extreme you can't help but find it completely ridiculous. Tomo-chan thankfully avoids the middle ground and as a result ends up with something quite ...

Sing a Bit of Harmony is very... interesting. I guess I'll preface this by just saying that it's a good watch.
The reason that I specify that it's interesting is because, well, it could have been a very different story very easily. So starting off with the story, it walks the very thin line between utopian and dystopian. Maybe I'm being overly cynical, but this movie kind of unnerved me at a few points. So, how to put this, you know how you go into a grocery store and you the surveillance robot that's there to catch you shoplifting? The ones that they put googly ...

Here's the thing: If you liked the first two seasons, you'll like this. Things keep developing and it's an interesting and entertaining season. If you didn't like the first two... well I guess you probably won't like this one but also why are you even here. Go watch something that you'll probably like.
Overall the series is very good and judging by the manga as of right now is going in a good direction. The anime doesn't come out fast enough for them to need to start putting in random anime only episodes so there's little worry on that front. There's a few parts that could've ...

As far as wish fulfillment isekai go, Shinka No Mi definitely sticks out; I might even say it does so in a good way.
Starting off with what is done well, the story is a lot of fun. The characters are wacky and I'll give the author props for making the main girl a literal gorilla. The mc is fat (for a bit), a... donkey I think? joins up with them. The animals do have human forms but also regularly swap back to look like beasts, often enough that it doesn't feel like the author is trying to get you to forget that they're actually ...

I wasn't sure what to expect mostly because my memories of the first season are kind of hazy at this point but the second season was good. For the OG, I remember liking the sparse action as well as the characters mainly. For the second season the humor landed better, maybe just because I'm older this time around. The characters were just as charming thankfully and they bounce off of each other very well. The action this time around is almost nonexistent and lame. Tbh I'd just prefer no action at all at this point. It wasn't really engaging or impressive in anyway. The story ...

Akiba Maid War stands out as a chaotic mix of many genres and themes. Thankfully I can say this with nothing but adoration as it is very much a good kind of chaos. The cast of characters are wonderful and wacky which meshes very well with the over-the-top gory action, the cute maid fluff, and the actually funny comedy. The entire show is mainly a framing device for setting up situations that let the creators flex these 4 aspects. The story is fine but nothing to write home about other than being a bit edgy and the gap moe; but it doesn't matter, because the ...

Witch Hat Atelier is a very... mixed bag. The art is frankly wonderful; character design, paneling, background, detail, etc. The art is easily the best part of the manga as I think most people will agree. Where I differ in opinion is towards the rest of work. As the story goes on things start to fall apart. I started getting bored during scenes and arcs which are clearly meant to be peaks. The characters are interesting but don't fit that well into the world, partly because the world kind of sucks. I won't go into spoilers as to why but after a certain point, maybe ...

Renai Flops (Anime) add
Mixed Feelings
Renai Flops is, as I'm sure you'll notice in just the first episode, a very standard rom com; except something is off. The first 5 or so episodes are a lot of set up and character building and it's well done. Eventually plot things start happening which and it's not egregious, but don't expect to be blown away either. At this point I was thinking I would be rating the show an 8 or possibly a 9 out of 10. The romance was solid and I was genuinely laughing at the jokes. They nailed both parts of the Rom and Com!

Unfortunately, Renai Flops hits a... ...
