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 Eyes of Sora - Chapter review [7-16]: "I am confused..."

Continuation of The Eyes of Sora reading that I am doing.

This story is starting to turn out like a real slow burn. There is shounen-ai promised, but it is nowhere in sight right now. There are other elements like drama and tragedy that come in, the other genres that this is in and you can see it more rather than the shounen-ai aspect of it. There are some problems with understanding what is going on or how the writer leads the story. You kind of feel lost, but it is starting to build up towards something big.

Score: 7/10

[Part 1.] https://runawaysdaydreams.blogspot.com/2020/02/the-eyes-of-sora-chapter-review-1-6.html


Chapter 7 + 8 + 9: They are again talking about this idea that Sora's eyes see more and are special. Because of that, he will have more problems with the spirits. Jeongha doesn't want Sora doing anything behind his back, but Sora still decides to help Kanghee's friend. The chapters start to get a little bit tedious to read. Honestly, I am more interested in Jeongha than in the exorcism or whatever we need to do to help this friend. I changed my mind, Kanghee's friend, Yuna is too cute for us to not help her! I don't think that it will turn out right, that Kanghee needs to buy time for Sora.

Chapter 10: Nice! This is just f*cking nice! Turns out, the girl I thought was cute is actually really bad! Yuna got a malicious god on her while she played around with rituals or something and they tried to pass it on to Kanghee. And Sora had seen through it. This is what's forcing Sora's hand; since the atmosphere in the school is changing and it could bother Jeongha someway too. It would have been nice if we get this information, not in an info-dump.

Chapter 11: Did Sora really exorcised it the god? There is no way that something like that could happen that easily. 

❉ ◦∘ Theory: It could be that the god will be either going back to Yuna or start lingering around Jeongha since he is already sick and it seems that the god was attracted to him. It still must be around.

Chapter 12: "I never quite get the point of Jeongha being angry all the time." My man, you took it right out of my mouth! However, it seems that now he is mad because Sora seems to be sick, and doesn't want to admit it. I don't want to see this guy getting angry on Sora's behalf.

═════ ∘◦ ミ⛧ ◦∘ ═════

Chapter 13 + 14: This manhwa swears on everything that it is not horror, but then there are certain things that only last one panel and scare me to my core. There is a suspicion that there are two souls in Jeongha's body, which is not normal, and he can't know about it or he will attract more evil spirits thanks to these negative thoughts. I don't know how this will change things, we always knew that there are problems with the guy. Something is lingering over Sora too, no doubt the things that he had picked up while he was protecting Jeongha, he already has a self-sacrificing attitude towards things! And Sora is still investigating the thing that was on Yuna.

Note: One they translate it as a god, other times as a demon. I will keep calling it a god, but it could be that this is not the best translation to it.

Chapter 15: The f*cks happening? Jeongha seems to hate spiritual people because there could be that some self-torturing things are happening with them. Sora is regularly starved himself days to keep his mind sharp... That's what I am getting from it. I have no idea.

Chapter 16: Jeongha is asking help from Kanghee, and that is a really strange alliance. In a sense, I don't understand what Kanghee is doing in this narrative. So they are not helping each other he just wants information? And they are talking about something that happened in the past, maybe when Jeongha had beaten up Sora several. They suspect Jeongha accepting something and the f*cking translators note is warning me that this is an important nuance. Sora is taking the misfortune that is coming from Jeongha, there must be a better way of solving this than this!

Note: Sora is famous. But he is also past the point of salvation, as they put it? This manhwa does a good job of frying my brain. But it is starting to get really interesting. If not a little bit confusing. I won't raise the score. They were also talking about the god being repelled, however, I do not believe it. I have a strange feeling that this god that was on Yuna will still play some kind of roll.

Domino Smash [app game review] (*  ̄︿ ̄)~Meh...

Rating:  ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ This game was meant to be relaxing, but it ends up boring me in a sense. There is no problem with the advertisement, I, however, felt other parts of the game implemented in really gimmicky and only being in the game because other games have it as well. Like collecting keys and getting to unlock new skins. There is no such need in this kind of game, or if it is, then it was implemented badly. You make one move per game, starting the ball, there is no other interaction and I am fine with that, that's what I had come for. It is nice to see bonus content, but it doesn't work here, sadly. It was made by Gismart. To be fair, I only had played it up until level 25. I can't recommend this app to others.

"0" Review

Long story short: 5/10 pretty decent and middle of the road. Music videos come in many forms and shapes  and form and animation is one of them. In my opinion, a disappointing animation is worse than a disappointing live-action; even though the focal point of a music video is on the music .  The most important thing is clearly the music, the animation here is a kind of bonus experience. I say this because this music video is hard to find on the internet, so I couldn’t re-watch it. (I decided to include "0" because this was between the first short anime music videos that I had watched when I started to watch anime more regularly. And I couldn't leave it without a word.)  Because, if this I based my writing on memory alone, and the recounting of other people writing about this animation. H owever, understanding the things  that go into making a music video is important . While you can judge the animation on of itself, it is needed to be understood that many things go in...

The Eyes of Sora - Chapter review [1-6]

The Eyes of Sora or Sora's Eyes is a manhwa made by Summer and was published on Lezhin in 2015. In its original language, it already concluded, but it is currently being translated. The premiss of the manhwa is interesting: "When Jeongha, the temperamental young son of a wealthy businessman was suddenly stricken down with a mysterious illness, his father scrambled to look for a cure. But the debilitating affliction persisted. Desperate and out of option, the father sought out help from a temple up on a misty mountain to save the life of his only son." - mangaupdates.com The art style is really interesting, it has this sketchy style that looks almost half-finished but it makes it looks easy and light. It brings a nice atmosphere to the entire piece. It looks something really promising. I will be reviewing it chapter by chapter since it is still being translated to English, but if you understand Korean, then you should check Summer out on Lezhin. Chapter 1: And the first c...
