Review: Killing Bites E.03

By Dustin Cabeal

For a moment, just one moment, this review nearly started off by saying, “it wasn’t as dumb as the previous two episodes.” After some thought though, the conclusion that was arrived at is this: it’s a different type of dumb this time around.

Unlike the other two episodes, the third chapter of Killing Bites begins with a tease of where the show is going. We find Hitomi and Cheetah girl dressed as maids and having pictures of their asses taken by what looks like a quarter of the college campus. Apparently, this school is full of desperate men in dire need of dirty photos to beat their meat too. Yuuya stands there, now with crutches, wondering how they got to this point. Cue the flashback!

Review: Isabellae vol. 2 – A Sea of Corpses

By Dustin Cabeal

Typically when you read a series of graphic novels, you become aware of the structure of the story. Many writers use the same setups and pacing to give each volume a familiar feel. The problem with this is that by the time you reach the end, you’re complacent with the material. The setup and pacing for the second volume of Isabellae are vastly different from the first. Whereas the first volume of Isabellae had several reveals and high points, this volume of the series is slowly building towards the ending.

Review: Killing Bites E.02

By Dustin Cabeal

Usually, I don’t poke fun at the titles for anime, but “Killing Bites” irks me in a particular way given that I say it every time I’m writing a review or listening to the show. Why, why is it not just “Killing Bite” or “Morphing People Fighting to the Death: The Anime.” One of the great mysteries of anime…

Review: Dagashi Kashi 2 E.03

By Dustin Cabeal

Okay, so maybe I don’t remember all the fan service from the first season. It could be much, much, much worse than it is here, but it’s hard to ignore it all together. Still, at least it’s somewhat tastefully done… I guess. I mean, I’m watching Killing Bites (terrible name) at the same time, and the stuff in Dagashi Kashi 2 doesn’t even qualify in comparison. But still, you can’t compare one show to the other, the fanservice exists, but it’s realistic. It’s not over the top or gross.

Review: Infidel #1

By Dustin Cabeal

With a title like Infidel, your comic is going to get a lot of looks. Not necessarily positive ones because I mean do I really have to explain the landscape of society in a review for a comic book? I don’t think so either. At any rate, I recall getting a few comments about this book when I posted the press release, and the concern was how the subject matter was going to be handled.
