First Impression: Sonny Boy

A boy lying on the floor of a classroom, staring at the ceiling. Seated on the teacher’s podium, a snot-nosed cat with sleep crusting its eyes. A strange girl appears, peering down at the boy and asking if it’s fun to lie on the floor. The setting is familiar enough, but the details are…incongruous to… Read More First Impression: Sonny Boy

First Impression: Battle Game in 5 Seconds

A smug kid plays video games. Then on his way to school, a monster attacks him. He flees into a half-demolished building (?) and barely fends off of the zombie-thing. But wait! Now he gets wrecked by a creepy purple catgirl with an annoying voice. Awaking to find himself among a group of fellow prisoners,… Read More First Impression: Battle Game in 5 Seconds

Finding Jesus: A Prayer Journal (Review)

Sometimes trying to decide on what prayer journals and devotionals to use is like trying to decide which brand of toothpaste to get.

Remake Our Life! (No Time Travel Needed)

Just two episodes in and the slice-of-life time travel series, Remake Our Life!, is already falling flat. There are a number of reasons for the disappointing start, but the greatest is perhaps that the vehicle for the protagonist’s life change is too extravagant. While I feel bad for Kyouka making the “wrong” choice in career… Read More Remake Our Life! (No Time Travel Needed)
