This manga is amazing. It's a very strong and well-done commentary on human society. Lust is all-powerful. That's the message that I got out of this. Anyways, on to the review.
Story: The story is very good, especially for a hentai. Mai is a maid that's immortal. Customers come and do obscenely immoral (to most people) acts to her. From abuse, rape, torture, or most of the time all three, Mai has been through it all.
Art: The art is the selling point of this manga, in my opinion. The art conveys what;s happening on panel perfectly: it's very beautifully drawn.
Characters: There aren't many characters, but the ... one's that the manga does have are all mediocre-good, they're nothing crazy. Mai has a lot of development, but that's about it.
Enjoyment: I loved every second of this manga. From the h-scenes to everything in-between I enjoyed all of it.
Overall: I would give this series a solid 7/10

Kaguya sama is a very entertaining and well-written series. It starts off as a silly comedy, but slowly evolves into one of the most though-provoking and enjoyable series out there. My favorite character was Ishigami. His character and representation of stoicism is extremely well-done. His character development in this season is unmatched. Miyuki and Kaguya are one of my favorite dynamics in all of anime. The way they interact with each other and the dialogue between them is second-to-none. Chika Fujiwara is an extremely misunderstood character. She is the perfect foil to the series, providing a character that goes against societal norms. Also, the symbolism ... with her bowtie is perfectly portrayed. Kaguya and her multiple personalities can be interpreted in so many different ways. Is she calling for help, portraying an identity crisis? It's all up to the viewer. Every character is fleshed out and given an astounding amount of depth to them. Enough about the characters, let's get into the absolute BANGER of an opening that this season has. DADDY DADDY DO! is performed by Masayuki Suzuki, and they do an amazing job at it. It's just overall amazing. Of course all of this means nothing if I didn't enjoy it, right? Well, I have to say, even as a surface-level watcher, you will massively enjoy this series. It's slapstick comedy and budding romance makes for an unforgettable experience.
Overall rating: 10/10

A Silent Voice is a beautiful coming-of-age film animated by the one and only, Kyoto Animation. Adapted from its manga counterpart, A Silent Voice does an amazing job with it’s pacing and representation of the characters. It also stays true with the manga art style, making for a unique experience. Summary of the plot: Shouya Ishida(Miyu Irino) is a normal middle school boy. One day, a transfer student appears. Her name is Shouko Nishimiya(Saori Hayami). She is deaf. Shouko(Saori Hayami) gets bullied for being deaf. One day, Shouya(Miyu Irino) gets caught bullying Shouko(Saori Hayami), and the whole class blames the bullying on him. This ... made Shouya(Miyu Irino) an outcast. Fast forward five years, and Shouya(Miyu Irino) is now seventeen years old. He is depressed and doesn’t see a point in living. He tries to atone for his problems throughout the movie and the conclusion in how he does so is too good to put into words. End of plot summary. Ending thoughts: This movie is a gem among gems. It shines brighter than anything I’ve ever watched. The characters and their development is on a different level. The plot is unique and intriguing. The animation will blow you away and make you question how beautiful something really can be. If I had to sum up this movie in one word, it would be, Beautiful. That’s the only way to describe this masterpiece of a film.
