Due to technical difficulties yesterday I ended up playing Lunar: Silver Star Story instead of Expedition 33.
I'd never played this game before and it wasn't bad at all. It was super simple and reeked of the 90's. Fun, short, and invoked nostalgia.

Finished up the BL visual novel Togainu No Chi. It was fairly fun mostly due do to how edgy it was. Motomi was easily my favourite character, with Keisuke being my most disliked.
Now it's on to the next BL read with the visual novel paradise. wish me luck.

While contemplating what my next manga read would be I came to a sudden realization. Turns out I had started Lone Wolf and Cub a few months ago and had totally forgotten about it. With that being said it's time to keep that train rolling!

Almost done my second read through of the manga call of the night.
It’s just as good as I remember it, maybe even better. It’s so rare that a manga succeeds in doing everything it aims to do, and call of the night absolutely nails it.

Okay some big plans for my next return!
I’m going sit down and fight with twitch and my computer illiteracy to get the Bunbun gatcha up and running properly.
New buns on the way as well so look forward to spending those channel points and meeting all kinds of adorable critters.

Okay back to reading!
Next in line is a manga i believe has one of the best endings in an arc of all time: Call of the night.
The English release of the manga finished recently and the second season of the anime is in full swing so it's as good of a time as ever for a reread.

So I finished the manga "Given". It took me a couple of days to get through it which is unusual for something that's only 9 volumes.
Gay boys in a band struggling with music and life. I absolutely loved one arc, but the others fell flat for me.
6.5/10

Finished the manga "I Married My Female Friend". It was short at 4 volumes and was pretty unspectacular. Nothing insightful to say, any problems felt shallow and were cleaned up easily.
I'm giving this manga a 5/10. Cute but that's about it.
I wonder what should I read next?

Delicious in Dungeon is in the books... hah.
Seriously though I've finished reading the manga series and overall it was good. For me it lacked anything that was really spectacular, though it was fun the whole way through. 7/10.
Up next is "I Married My Female Friend"

I’ve decided I’m finally going to bite the bullet and read all of the delicious in dungeon manga.
I’m afraid I’m not going to like this series as much as the hype wants me to. Sorry in advance to all of the people that will inevitably want to fight me over this.

With some free time I've finally managed to catch the reading bug again. I sat down and read "Even Though we're Adults" in its entirety. It'll take some time to fully process it but I think it may be my favourite manga by author Takako Shimura.
What should I read next? hmm...

Okay so I’ve talked about my collection of manga a few times. Well here it is is all of its glory. Behold what an addiction to physical media looks like!
Note: some more empty spaces than usual as I have some stuff lent out.
