I Like Big Boobs, But I Got Reincarnated in a BL World or Kyonyuu Sukinanoni BL-Kai ni Tensei Shimashita is a BL manga where the protagonist gets reincarnated into a world set with BL-manga rules and clichés.

The manga is written and illustrated by Nao Tsukiji. They are known for their long-running manga series “Adekan” as well as their unique but beautiful art style. I Like Big Boobs, But I Got Reincarnated in a BL World is their most recent work with one volume has been released in 2022.

I happened upon this manga while I was scrolling through twitter and liked the sample chapter so much that I decided to purchase it on amazon JP kindle and give it a read.

Be aware that this mini-review will be reviewing a manga that is entirely in Japanese, no English.

[Anime] B-Project: Zecchou*Emotion Episode #02 (Anime Review)

I told y’all I’ll write episodic reviews for B-Pro the anime 2: Electric Boogaloo. I’m almost on time with this review, mainly because I can squeeze a little time into this especially with how easily summed up this episode can be.

So let’s take a dive in, shall we?

[Anime] B-Project: Zecchou*Emotion Episode #01 (Anime Review)

Ayyy, back at it again with B-Pro the anime. This will be my third attempt at writing episodic reviews, though no promises I’ll keep up or be on time.

Following up B-Project: Kodou*Ambitious 3 years after it’s rushed and fever-dream-like ending is the second season: B-Project: Zecchou*Emotion. Was there a need for a second season? Not really. Did anyone ask for this? Prolly.

In preparations for this season I did not rewatch the first season, mainly because I will lose my mind marathoning it again. I wrote a review for the first season but I don’t know if that’ll help me refresh my memories. Not like there was anything of substance to remember from that anime.

[Manga] Mini Review – Gokushufudo Vol.1

Goku Shufudo is a seinen comedy manga by Kousuke Oono about an ex-yakuza’s daily life as a “professional house husband”. The first chapter was published online on 23rd of February 2018 on kurage bunch (a comic publishing website) where it has published 18 chapters as of now. 

In August, Goku Shufudo got it’s first manga volume published, containing chapters 1 through 9 as well as bonus side stories at the end that I think is manga exclusive. I was planning to get it but at the time CD Japan didn’t have it on it’s listings and the only available place I could get it was in Amazon Japan–which, for those who don’t know, is a problem because Amazon banned all shipping to Australia from their international stores like Amazon Japan and Amazon USA. It’s a long and stupid story to explain why that’s a thing, but anyway I decided to give up but eventually I ended up getting it from CD Japan.

Originally this review was supposed to be written in October when I got it but because of being preoccupied with stuff I had to put it off until now, so please enjoy this short review!

[Anime] Dynamic Chord Episode #01 (Anime Review)

Woooooo, its Hallooweenie month and y’know what that means. Spooky shit, and what’s more spooky than a shitty anime adaption of an otome game? Trying to profit off a series by making an anime out of it and leaving it in incapable hands is the truest horror one could possibly witness.

Like I promised, even though it’s really late, I’m gonna do episodic reviews for Dynamic Chord: The Anime. It took me a while to find a place to watch it (and is legal) and boy was it abysmal. I might do an overall review for it in the end because its so bad.

Anyway, I want y’all to witness the first episode too. The first episode is free to watch on HIDIVE (only in 480p for free users, it enhances how bad this anime is), so feel free to watch it before reading my thoughts. →Check it Out←

Also, quick heads up. I’ve never played the games so I have no idea who is who and this is all new to me. I might not find enjoyment or get the fanservice, so I might be a little biased here with my ignorance.

[Anime] Thoughts on… Sengoku Night Blood Episode #01

Based on the mobile game that released late May of this year, Sengoku Night Blood is one of historic dramas but with a twist, that twist being that it’s set in an parallel world where instead of daimyōs fighting against each other in the Sengoku Period to unite Japan, we’ve got vampires and werewolves fighting against each other to unite “Shinga” (totally not vampire-werewolf Japan). Oh, also every single person in this anime/game shares the same name as historical figures in the Sengoku Period. Coincidence? No, not really.

The mobile game and anime is a collaboration between Otomate (game company whose specialty is to create games for girls), Marvelous Inc. (developer of video games and anime) and KADOKAWA (publisher of manga, magazines and games). The game itself is only in Japanese, so if you’re an English speaker who is interested in playing it after watching this anime, I’d suggest to either look up guides and translations or learn Japanese. If you want to read my review of the mobile game, here’s the link.

As for the anime its main production is by a studio called Typhoon Graphics who are mostly credited for finishing animation and their big projects would be animation production assistance with the Digimon Adventure Tri. movies, animation production/finish animation of my favorite shitty first person anime series One Room and Roommate and finally their latest and biggest project with Sengoku Night Blood. With such prestigious work, I’m sure this will be one hell of a ride.

This time around I’ll be reviewing this series as each episode airs because I have a mighty feeling that this anime might be hilarious in terms of quality (or lack there of) and it’ll be much easier to gather my thoughts on certain parts of the anime, considering I forget some stuff when I do full reviews. Hopefully I’ll do the same for the Dynamic Chord anime because that seems lol worthy. Not sure if I’ll do a full review eventually to wrap things up after it ends, but I’ll consider it. ❗

[Anime] Thoughts on… Kenka Banchou Otome -Girl Beats Boys- (Anime Review)

In commemoration of the release of Kenka Banchou Otome~Kanzen Muketsu no My Honey~ (fandisc) this week, I’ll be giving Kenka Banchou Otome -Girl Beats Boys- a little mini review 😆

You’ll have to keep in mind that its been a year since I played Kenka Banchou Otome so I might not remember things properly and may even say thing that are inaccurate. Sorry about that! Anyway, I’ll try my best to remember and give a quick, thorough comparison between the anime and the game.

[Anime] Thoughts on… Roommate & One Room (Anime Review)

I was initially going to review RoomMate by itself but when I found out it was a spin-off of another anime that shares the same concept called One Room (replace the dudes in RoomMate with cute anime girls and that’s the anime), I decided, what the heck, I’ll check this one out and see if its any better than the dumpster fire that is RoomMate and y’know what it is. One Room isn’t exactly “anime of the year” material but at least it ain’t RoomMate.

So I’ll be using One Room as a way to compare and analyse RoomMate and see what exactly went so wrong. Just to make things clear, both of these animes are in the ‘first person anime’/’point of view anime’ genre much like my good ol’ friend Makura no Danshi (I take all the bad things I’ve said about it back now that I’ve watched RoomMate). One Room was released on January while RoomMate released afterwards in May, these animes run for about 4 minutes. Both share the same animation studio (legit thought it was by the same studio that did Makura no Danshi, guess I was wrong) as well as the same directors/writers/storyboarders/staff which kinda creates the problem of a staff going from catering to guys with One Room to catering to girls with RoomMate, usually the transition doesn’t go so well especially when both rely heavily on fanservice… which I’ll talk about later.

Anyway, lets get this shit show rolling.

[Manga] Mini Review – Iyagatteru Kimi ga Suki (Vol.1)

iyakimi

Iyagatteru Kimi ga Suki is a comic/manga initially published online at Ruelle Comics (where you can read the first chapter and latest chapter) and now has been published into a bounded manga. Art and story is by Mizuki Oniyama, you can find their pixiv but if you look into their art logs you’ll prolly get spoiled on what they have in mind for the series.

The art style Oniyama uses is reminiscent of 80’s manga, while the visuals they use are kinda macabre and really leaves an impression on you. Gonna say this outright, this isn’t a shoujo manga, actually I’m not even sure what audience this is for, but I’m gonna have to say it’s for adults or for those with mature minds. If you’re easily squeamish at either gore, vomiting, piss etc then I wouldn’t recommend you to read this 😆

It’s definitely dark but the dark comedy makes it less grim than what it should be, but guaranteed it does have it’s dark moments where it’s not joking around. Even if it is about an abusive relationship, I still find it interesting at how the manga explores the human workings of the two characters as well as their paraphilic tendencies. You’re free to call me out on being an asshole or a sick fuck for liking this manga. Also, just a heads up but this post will be discussing some stuff that may not sit well with some people and might be a bit NSFW.

I also got a bonus illustrated gift from purchasing it from Animate:

The context of this pic is explained in later chapters, don’t worry. Anyway, this is just a glimpse on how abnormal the manga can get.

[Manga] Mini Review – Mermaid Boys Vol.2

mermaidboys2

This is a little belated review of Mermaid Boys Vol.2 by Yomi Sarachi, been a bit busy lately haha. You’d think that after reviewing the first volume I wouldn’t feel the need to review the second volume because I might have the same opinion but this volume has changed a bit of my opinion on it…

Anyway, I’ll be addressing some spoilers for Volume 2 in this post so if you plan on reading it yourself and don’t want to be spoiled then don’t read the rest of this review. All I can say is that I don’t see this series going far, even if it pains me to say it. Sorry if I’m being a wet blanket, its just that I didn’t feel it in this volume… It still made me laugh but whenever I think about what it’ll provide in the next volumes I start to think that it might not last long before the conclusion.
