I’m not a prude; let me get that out of the way. I’m also somewhat immune to the more pathetic cringe levels of the weeb fandom, considering my own origins. Like, considering that I wrote horrible self-insert fanfiction on Quizilla.com, I don’t think I have any ground to stand on and act snobbish towards how

Repeat after me: We certainly don’t read webtoons solely because of the extremely swoon-worthy male leads, but it’s certainly one of the main reasons. Hey, I’ve never hidden how much of a simp I am for a well-written, well-rounded male character in general. Combine that with my obsession of a good romance and, well, is
Look, I can’t be the only one who might pick a show solely based on a ship. Like, the prospect of an adorable Nezuko marrying a bumbling Zenitsu in Demon Slayer is what made me trucker on through the manga, despite all the heartache. Look, is it weird that I’m reading a Shounen manga for
I’m not going to beat around the bush with this one: Mushoku Tensei is not worth the read. I know, I know, harsh words for someone who gobbles every mid-tier Shojou in her path but hears me out. The problem with the Isekai genre is specifically that it has become so dated and everything is
Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku isn’t lacking in its violence, not even with characters like Mei with the scar on her back. Despite her being in the form of a child when everything goes down, she is still touched by the atrocities that are her origins. Gender, age, race — none of that matters when it comes
There have been few feel-good mangas from the 90s that touched the hearts of enthusiasts worldwide quite as Great Teacher Onizuka did. With its easy-going plotline and even more laid-back protagonist, Eikichi Onizuka, fans have flocked to this story time and time again. But the fate of our main lead is somehow just as elusive
Over the course of the last decade or so, the boom of anime in the sports genre has proven one thing. No, it isn’t the fact that sport can be slightly homoerotic (although that’s still a valid point), but that the competition in a plot line doesn’t automatically guarantee our protagonist being the very best.
So, despite being extremely content with Naruto Shippuden as my favorite of the Big 3, I started Bleach because I ‘liked the soundtrack’. However, that is a lie because the real reason I did was because of my massive crush on Sōsuke Aizen. Look, I was a teenager. The villains were starting to appeal to
As both a Shonen and Shojou fan, it can get hard navigating my expectations from both genres. When I watch a good Shojou, I feel like I’m missing out on a fast-paced plot and slow burns are the bane of my existence. But when I’m watching a Shonen, I really miss the cuteness of a
I’m not ashamed to admit that, out of all the anime I choose to watch, a great deal of it is influenced by how much I can ship two characters in it. Like, does the anime have two characters with instant chemistry that I can obsess over through various means such as fan art and
