I feel as though she had tunnel vision on her goal.
Part 2 is a direct continuation of part 1, so there are minor spoilers.
Myne got successful and she got where she needed to be, but it wasn't enough for her. She decides it's in her best option to become a noble, where she can read books, develop her magic, and adjust to the social systems. This story arc felt more for her character development, pushing the narrative of her becoming basically overpowered, in a sense. Not only is she selfless, but she is also 1 step ahead of everyone-

(Manga)
add
An isekai that I didn't think I would love so much.
It has such a different premise than most isekai's, it really is refreshing. MC is reborn to a poor as a young, ill child who loved books. Although she doesn't have OP powers like most isekai protags, she has her past knowledge. Story 8: As the story progresses, and she miraculously isn't so bedridden anymore, she makes it her goal to create books. She has the aid from her loving family and neighborhood friends. One thing dominos into another and she becomes quite the talk of town, and enters the merchant world. Art 8: Simple and ...

Somali to Mori no Kamisama
(Anime)
add
Somali and her Golem papa.
A family traveling journey through a non-human world to find humans. It started off strong, and I really wanted to say I enjoyed this anime to the fullest, but that would be a bit of a lie. It took me a long time to pick it back up around ~ep5. Golem is logical and completely devote of "emotions", spitting out facts and disbelieving any ideals/superstitions. Somali is a happy-go-lucky young child who is curious about the world. As they travel, they encounter different creatures, different cities, and different faunas. As her guardian, Golem wants to bring her to humans before ...

Nakanohito Genome [Jikkyouchuu]
(Manga)
add
Nakanohito Genome had a promising beginning. A psychological, dark survival game? A diverse cast? who could ask for more?
It starts as a danganropa-esqe story, BUT turns into a cutesy, light psychological comedy one where twists and backstories are frequent. Story: Video game streamers who specialise in specific genres and have a connected(?) mastery to it IRL as well. They need to reach a certain amount of "views", which they magically acquire. Each "game" they play for "views" is different and is composed of working together a pair or a group. Failure leads to a isolation room or punishment, which is very much emphasised for ...

10-manbun no 1
(Manga)
add
"i never would have thought that god would take all that away"
This manga starts as a cute romance shoujo then BAM.. *disclaimer: I have not read the parent story "Akaiito". 10-manbun no 1 jumps right into flirt and then developments into their relationship, which is a continuation from the parent story directly. What I really enjoy are the true feelings and progression of awareness to her disease. The FMC essentially goes through the 5 stages of grief and has her family and friends supporting her throughout her diagnosis. She and her grandpa are in denial, citing that she's too young but there's a chance because ...

Kawaii Hito
(Manga)
add
"you make my heart smile" literally. My heart smiles, FMC heart smiles, MC heart smiles, my cat's heart smiles, the whole world's heart smiles.
Gosh, I haven't read such a cute, shoujo romance, in a LONG time. This manga does an amazing job capturing their relationship. Kawaii Hito (かわいいひと) - Adorable People, is the perfect name. I've had this on my PTR list for years, and I am finally glad I've read it now. As you can see, MC is a scary-eyes looking guy, who is super sweet and works as a florist in his family owned shop. He meets a cute college student while ...

Blue Period
(Manga)
add
I have never felt so compelled to write a review on a manga until I read this masterpiece. I feel very much reborn as a person - it is such a refreshing feeling. I don't think I can put it completely in words on how to describe this manga.
You don't have to appreciate the subject of art to love this beautiful piece of storytelling. It is so well paced and it's sense of progression is perfect for our MC, Yaguchi Yatora. From his struggle of searching for something he's passionate about as he transitions from HS to College, finding a career or major. As ...

Futari Ashita mo Sorenari ni

A simple slice-of-life romance manga that follows a couple (boyfriend and girlfriend) living together.
If you love fluff, this is literally the definition. Extremely heartwarming and wholesome with great characters and interactions. Somewhat realistic life between the main characters. Story: Simple and cute, flows well. a good mixture that slice-of-life manga should have. Art: I like the art, it is very simple yet expresses well what the characters feel and think. Character: I love both the MCs, their families are great too! Enjoyment: one of the best wholesome, slice of life, adult romances I've read, , even if you have a hole in your heart

Yumemiru Taiyou
(Manga)
add
I bought 4 volumes of Yumeiro Taiyou at a convention because there was a sale and I remember reading it online when I was younger. I originally had high hopes and nostalgic feelings upon rereading, but it was a bit more frustrating than I anticipated.
MC runs away from home and is invited to live at a home with 3 guys for little money. She basically falls in love with everyone, making it a bit unrequited love jumping festival. After one rejection, she hops on another (which is like stop it omg). Story 6: The story has the feels, has the dreams, has the ...

Natsunagu!
(Anime)
add
Cute. Simple. and Short.
I watched this who ONA on Youtube. It look interesting and it reminded me a little of KyoAni. Natsunagu! is about this college student trying to find her online friend with little to no leads. She travels to Kumamoto from Tokyo literally asking the townspeople if they knew who she was. Everyone she meets is helpful and friendly, and she takes an adventure through Kumamoto, essentially a tour. Some episodes I skipped seconds through (its only 4minutes per episode!) because they were a bit boring and predictive. Art - simple and aesthetic vibe Sound- nice OST , i like the ending, it ... |
