Recently Got Into XXXI

Manga Hunter here…my throat really hurts, but at least I can still type. Anyway, I recently got into another light novel.


 

Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician by: ONOSAKI Eiji & Nabeshima Tetsuhiro

When Theodore was dropped into a waterway by his half-brother, he suddenly recalled the memory of his past life.

He had been a Japanese citizen known as Kirishima Kagehisa, placed inside VRMMO character he had made in Break Force Online.

‘Theodore’ is a Combat Mage that Kagehisa played within BFO, and he realized his skills were progressing well even in this other world.

Theodore, who had lightly brushed off his half-brother to make his own place in the world, had ventured off to the large labyrinth existing at the Boundary City, Termuilles.

(summary from Xant & Minions)

I admit that I have been reading a lot of remembering past lives stories, but this one was pretty good, especially since the main character refuses to take the bullying from an evil stepmother and evil half-brothers. This also has an RPG element in it with magic in the mix. I hope for more in the future.

That’s all for now and as always please support the creators of this work and the translator when you can.

Anime Recommendations III

Manga Hunter here and while I was on vacation, I watched two anime…in one night and finished them. They were really good in my opinion, with the first one being a musical with a little Yandereness and the second being just plan AWESOME! I want a second season, but I’ll just read the manga to calm myself.

Dance with Devils

One Punch Man

In this new action-comedy, everything about a young man named Saitama screams “AVERAGE,” from his lifeless expression, to his bald head, to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking fellow doesn’t have your average problem… He’s actually a superhero that’s looking for tough opponents! The problem is, every time he finds a promising candidate he beats the snot out of them in one punch. Can Saitama finally find an evil villain strong enough to challenge him? Follow Saitama through his hilarious romps as he searches for new bad guys to challenge!

(summary from MyAnimeList)

 


 

Those are my anime recommendations and both are licensed. As always please support the creators of these works and the translators when you can.

Online Comic Recommendations III

I am starting to run out of stamina. I am writing this and babysitting at the same time. All right, enough of real life for now. More online comics to recommend and just know that these are fun reads with the first one being in an RPG setting and the other dedicated to the Holidays. Cuteness overload in the second one for me.

 

Toaru Ossan no VRMMO Katsudouki by: SHIINA Howahowa & RIKUDOU Shuuya

 Toaru Ossan no VRMMO Katsudouki

Typical company employee Tanaka Daichi (38 years old, single) loves games and plays a new type of VRMMO called “One More Free Life Online” under the username “Earth”. Inside this free world he chose several skills that are generally regarded as useless. Be it wasting time crafting potions, cooking up pointlessly tasty food, or hunting monsters with some absurd weapon he crafted, he simply enjoys playing the game.

Manga Recommedations XV

Manga hunter is still here and now making manga recommendations…this is a lot of hard work, so let’s just say these manga are really good and both a heart warming. The first one is more of a reverse harem later on and the second one is more about true friendship. Both are complete and can be read online. The first one was actually licensed, but the company closed down or stop translating this work, so it is technically no longer licensed.

Ultimate Venus (Kyuukyoku Venus) by: SHIGEMATSU Takako

Poor Yuzu is an orphan who’s too clumsy to hold a job. She’s reduced to living in a playground — until a handsome stranger named Hassaku informs her that she’s heir to a fortune, and whisks her into a world of wealth, power, and more hot suitors than she can shake a scepter at! But there’s a catch: Hassaku must turn this klutz into a lady of refinement, or Yuzu will lose everything!

(summary from Baka-Updates)


 

Isshuukan Friends by: HAZUKI Maccha

 Isshuukan Friends

(image from Baka-Updates)

Hase Yuuki is interested in his unsociable classmate Fujimiya Kaori. Since he sits behind her in class, the only thing he ever gets to see is her back. One day, when they’re alone in a hallway, he blurts out to her, “Would you become friends with me?”. But her answer is, “I’m happy, but I can’t.”?! What could be the reason for this answer?

Those are my recommendations for now and as always please support the creators of these works and the translators when you can.

Oneshot Recommendations VI

I have some lovely and funny oneshots that I read a long time ago.

Akazukin to, Koisuru Ookami by: Takamaru Kou

AKAZUKIN TO, KOISURU OOKAMI 

(image from Baka-Updates)

Long ago, a witch named Red Ridinghood fell in love with a man named Wolf, but he broke her heart. She set a curse on their descendents… should a Wolf ever fall for a Ridinghood, they will turn into a wolf!

(summary from Baka-Updates)

This was a cute oneshot with a little twist in the Little Red Riding Hood Story. There is a curse and love. This is lighthearted in my opinion, so many of you would like to read this just to smile for a day.


 

A Pocket Full of Holes Forgets Everything by: SOMEYA Minoru

 A Pocket Full of Holes Forgets Everything

(image from Baka-Updates)

When a forgetful man forgets everything, will he lose everything in the end?

(summary from Futari wa Pretty Anon)

Man, this main character guy reminded me of me when I was younger. I actually brought everything to school, so I wouldn’t forget to bring anything…it was a hassle to bring everything home at the end of the school year. Anyway, this oneshot has romance and proof that true love can exist, even if there are problems.


 

Those are my oneshot recommendations and as always, please support the creators of these works and the translators when you can.

I got all of these through presents and gift cards. Two of these manga were actually free, since Barnes and Noble is having a buy two manga get one free sale starting today and ending in January 18th. I want to also add that Half Price Bookstores are having a 20% off sale on all items and this sale will last until Tuesday, December 29. I actually plan to get some more manga tomorrow in Half Price Bookstore. As for the anime, it was a gift from a family member.

I also received a Shiro figure from the anime No Game No Life. I plan to cherish this for a long while. I would show you a picture, but I am still getting used to the picture function on my phone, so that picture might come later.

Updates for stories will resume starting Tuesday.

That’s all for now and I hope you guys enjoyed your holiday traditions as well!
