Prison School -- Vice Principal Cosplay

By Dustin Cabeal

Hey, when I upload a new theme or uproot the site completely I like to celebrate with a cosplay posting. Not really, I just found this and couldn't resist sharing Katinka Cosplay's (photos by Photosnxs) brilliant recreation of Meiko Shiraki, the vice principal from Prison School. Which is a manga that I've reviewed (Vol. 1, Vol. 2 & 3 and Vol. 4) and also an anime that we've discussed on Super-S: Anime Podcast.

REVIEW: KEIJO!!!!!!!! E.02

By Robert Ramos

What would a sports anime be without vigorous training, am I right? I’m talking about training so hard that you’re going to puke or being so tired that you’re unable to function. Well, in this episode of Keijo, we get all that, minus the puking.

By training, I’m talking about making figure eights with your butt, pushing a tire with your chest and/or butt, and last but not least, walking with your butt.

Review: The Chasing Arrows #1

By Justin Wood

It's a lot like Waterworld. It's a little like Tank Girl. One bit reminds me a lot of Y: The Last Man. The Chasing Arrows feels a lot like a lot of things that already exist, but unlike a lot of books read here on Bastards, here this doesn't raise my red flags. The only time clichés and allusions are crimes are when you get the sense that the writer just wanted to take credit for a story they read elsewhere or to plug holes in their writing instinctually with overly familiar shortcuts. The Chasing Arrows feels familiar but brings enough of its own ideas to the table to result in a new property worth seeing what it builds into.

Review: Niskeoi: False Love vol. 18

By Dustin Cabeal

Much like the main characters of this book, I think I might be falling in love… with the story; which is difficult to admit since it has wasted so many opportunities and picked the familiar path of the harem genre time and time again. Perhaps it’s the fact that I’ve kept reading it that I’ve become so invested or that I watched two seasons of the anime to see how it all started. Whatever it is, this volume got me. Now, that doesn’t mean it’ll keep me because this all hinges on what happens next.
