Seven Seas Collaborates with J-Novel Club to Bring Light Novels to Print

By Dustin Cabeal

You couldn't pay me to read Occultic;Nice. I would gladly read Grimgar though. Actually, both anime series made my end of the year list. Grimgar made the "Best of 2016" list, while Occultic;Nice made the other one... Also I tried the light novels and I'm not a fan. Power to anyone that can get through them with enjoyment.

Seven Seas Licenses Record of Lodoss War: The Grey Witch Novel

By Dustin Cabeal

Damn, I haven't thought about Record of Lodoss War in forever! I loved the name which has been copied hundreds of times since, but I never really fell in love with this franchise. It was just one of the few that made it to the States during a time we were just happy to get anything.

Seven Seas Licenses The Testament of Sister New Devil Storm! Manga

By Dustin Cabeal

I gave this franchise a chance with the anime, but gave up on the second season. It's all fan service. Any inkling of the story was suffocated by boobs. With this new series being a spin-off, I wonder if it could be better or if it would just find another area of the female body to get lost in. Find out in September!

Thank God There's A Manga Adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo...

By Dustin Cabeal

I hate The Count of Monte Cristo. I just wanted to say that. I find it to be a lame ass story that offered no surprises, not even the one at the end. Why? Because it was fucking obvious. I hate all iterations of it and just because this one is in manga form and the woman's boobies are hanging out, doesn't mean I care.

By Dustin Cabeal

Okay... I want to read the hell out of this. Sure the story sounds interesting and has a nice twist, but that art! That art has me hooked. I'll be looking forward to this one, even if it's not until November.

Seven Seas Licenses Absolute Duo Manga... Crickets

By Dustin Cabeal

I wanted to like anime based on this manga, but it was just too trope heavy. What really did it in was the fact that it took all these strong female characters and made them weak compared to the main male character... who was pretty fucking weak. It's just a harem fantasy that lacked humor, action and an original premise. But hey... maybe the manga is better... he typed with raised shoulders.

Review: Masamune-kun’s Revenge vol. 1

By Dustin Cabeal

Well, lesson learned; don’t read the description on Amazon if you’re buying manga. The main reason being that the “pitch” for Masamune-kun’s Revenge clearly has information about where the series proceeds rather than pertaining to this particular volume.
