Questions are good things. They are there to get to know others and to find the common ground with each other, with the people we want to love. Well, I would think that the biggest thing I need to learn is to love myself. I think at least. I like lists, I make lists, mainly about anime and manga that I want to read and watch. And sometimes about American books too. My life does revolve around things that I consume. And I do not know if I am fine with that. I would like to fancy myself that I like philosophy, but in truth, I like the idea of philosophy. In the sense, philosophy means the love of knowledge, because we cannot know everything. So we need to start with things that we do not know, even though there are many famous figures in philosophy, I do not want to read from them. Because the biggest thing that I do not know if myself. And, as I am right now, I am more interested in filling the emptiness in me, if that makes sense. But I like questions. So, I went out and looked for que...

The Story Of An Ogre And... [review]

The Story Of An Ogre And... was written by Kuze Gaku and it is published on Pixiv in 2016.


Kuze Gaku is made this masterful short, extremely short story touching story that needs to be seen to be 100% understood. This is a short story that needs to be experienced. The tragic story of an ogre is moving and a real tear-jerker. The link above is to his all in all pixiv account, a way to get to experience his other works. To the The Story Of An Ogre And... is here: 


Of course, the English translation is found on the net translated.

The art is beautiful, it seems like a detailed pencil drawing and even the environment, bare as it seems is well made. I can recommend it to everyone.

Score: 10/10


Trivia: [Spoiler: I can't stop myself from writing about this story. It turns out that the chained up ogre, is someone who brings bad luck and anything that gets close to him dies. The girl, who is talking with him seemingly fearless of his appearance is shown to be a flower that withered away under his curse. In its last minutes, the lonely ogre imagines the flower as a girl who asks him not to forget her. He is so lonely that the only one who he could share his thoughts with is a flower that fearlessly grows in the cave where he is locked away.]

[Spoiler: It is amazing how the author manages to show the loneliness of someone locked away in hits us right where it hurts. It is almost something that couldn't be described in words. This is why I read manga, finding something like this. This is a masterpiece.]

Kawaii Home Design - Decor & Fashion Game - sneak peek review

Kawaii Home Design - Decor & Fashion Game is made by ONESOFT. I only played the tutorial, and I can see that this is a highly rated game, however, it is simply not for me. This game is not that beginner-friendly, and when it comes to making the rooms, there aren't that many chances to get started. The tutorial takes you on a spin, and it explains a lot of things, however, I can be really frustrating and fast. However, I won't leave a star review on this one, at least not on their page, I don't want to pull it down when I don't feel that my review would be useful, or my rating would be fair. I think that people who understand it and like it can enjoy it. There is content here, and I can recommend it. Rating:  ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆

Anime

Maybe one of the most interesting topics that I like is the topic of anime. I got to know them when I was really young, around the ages of 4 or 5. What I can remember is that I always know that at night, after the kid's show had ended, another program would start on the channel. That time, people would translate anime, sub and dub them on Hungarian, which is my first language and I could listen and watch them. I knew, even as a child that there is something special in this. I was a miserable kid, truly. I didn't have any friends nor did I enjoy people's company. I still don't like them for the most time. I guess this is a confession? But anime is still something that kind of makes me stary eyed and makes me excited. I even feel bad for not following the current season. But that's because I want to do something different: I had completed 999 anime, as up to date according to MyAnimeList. This means all the short animations, series, and movies. Which is a pretty big v...
