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...

009-1: R&B special review

Score: 5/10

"Mylene Hoffman, also known by the code name "009-1" is a beautiful cyborg spy. Instructed by her superior "Number Zero," she is assigned to eliminate a Jazz musician who is suspected to be a double agent. However, as she gets closer to the musician, she begins to slowly lose suspicion. Can she complete the mission before she falls in love?" - myanimelist.net

This is a special episode to 009-1: R&B and it is similar to its parent anime. I can't really recommend t since I have the same problems with this one as the parent anime. This is almost like the 13th episode or something like that, a little extra, I can't really fault it. However, the animation is nice and if someone had liked 009-1 then this is a nice extra episode for it.

It was produced by Aniplex, and the licensors were ADV Films and Funimation. The music was made by Iwasaki Taku. It was made in 2007 and it has an R-17+ for violence and profanity. It is a 25-minute special.

"Bungaku Shoujo" Memoire - Review

Score: 9/10 "Bungaku Shoujo" Memoire is a three-part OVA, that depicts the characters before the movie had taken place.  This was needed since the movie adapted almost the middle section of the light novel series. It was made by Production I.G, has the average length of an anime episode. Director: Tada Shunsuke. Producer: Kuroki Rui. Sound director: Nakajima Toshihiko. It is not needed to watch to enjoy the movie, but it gives context to a lot of things that the movie didn't have time to get to. It does carry the same atmosphere as the other OVA does, more light-hearted but it has narrative value as well. It can come out as filler, however, I had never had any problems with filler content. "Prelude of the Girl Who Gazes into Dreams — Amano Tooko is a high school student with the strange power of being able to experience books by savoring them. While visiting the workplace of her deceased father, she stumbles upon the rejected drafts for a writing contest. One of them...

Omoni Otto - manga review

Score: 7/10 it's a good story all in all. Omoni Otto is not a manga that I would recommend to people since it is so short, only three chapters and not having any substance behind it and the third chapter almost hints at a continuation. However, that is not to say that it is a bad story. Information! Omoni Otto was made by Yamazaki Satoshi, serialized in Gekkan! Spirits in 2014. The art is actually cute good, the character design of the main character Suguri Yukio is drawn with harsh lines and a strict scary face, which makes it strikingly contradicting when it turns out that he is good at housework and with children. Suguri wouldn't admit that he is a househusband even though he decided to take up the housework instead of his wife since right now he is in a creative slump. Suguri is actually more invested in doing housework and shopping while waiting for creativity to strike. It is a nice little spinet of his life, not really having any story behind him. [Spoiler: I would actua...

A Boy Who Fishes Dreams - review

Score: 8/10 "This one shot has won 3rd spot of Daewon manhwa contest, and thus the author has a high(er) chance of being employed by Issue magazine." (Source: Sura's Place) This is a one-shot made by Hannah-hye, serialized in Daiwon in 2012. ☾ The art is a little bit off, I can't really put my hands on it, but the characters are a little bit stiff looking. But this is something that can be accepted from someone who only has one worked credited to them yet - this may be the creator's first work. But there is a lot of potential in them, just by seeing how they are leading the story. The background is actually okay, the scenes are well set. ☾ The story is about two boys who are in employment in an illegal dream recording business. They are giving hope to people whit recording their dreams and playing it back to them via nanotechnology. This is a futuristic technology that was banned because of criminals using it to blackmail people, which I can see happening even tho...
