Hey guys how’s it going? Weekly Check-in time. These past two weeks, I was in a major media slump!!!!
However, I was able to read two novellas and a manga volume. I also watched an anime, a TV show, and an anime movie!!! Onto the media!!
TV Show
ER
These episodes showed a new cast member starting as an intern and she reminds me so much of myself when I have walked into a program brand new to everything lol 😆. There is though a ton more backstabbing than the previous and so many people doing awful things. Overall though, I am still excited to continue on. Because of these points, I have to give this a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣.
Novella
Meet Me in Los Feliz
I truly truly loved and appreciated this novella. I love the banter, the inclusive representation, I also loved the unique sex scenes (I don’t recommend this if thats not your cup of tea but if you are interested…yeah definitely pick this up). Overall though, I loved the communication between the main characters the most and how they hang out together is something that I love in my romances. I also think this may be a novella ill read again and again for some feels before the holidays. Because of these points, I have to give it a 4.5 out of 5 stars or 5 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣🍣 due to some strange lines for me. I highly recommend it.
Big Biker
This was definitely not what I expected it to be in a good way. It definitely shows the Biker being a big teddy bear and saving the leading lady with his P.I skills. I think for me this one as opposed to others that I’ve read from this author was a more solid conclusion. Other than that though, I really enjoyed this story (even though a lot of it was sad because of all the manipulation). And I am excited to continue reading this author’s backlist. 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣.
Manga
Series Starters
The Girl with the Sanpaku Eyes
This is a manga series that I have wanted to try because of the art but also because of the shy aspect and the “unattractive” leading female character and I LOVED the art in this especially the wardrobe and colors. I also enjoyed the episodicness of the plot, but I wished there was more to the story with the male perspective (maybe it will happen in the future we will see). Overall, though, I enjoyed my time with this manga, and I would love to continue on in the series 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣🍣🍣🍣.
Anime
One Piece
The episodes in this week’s English dub were bonkers and left everything unfinished in my opinion. We learned more about some of the villains and more about the powers that everyone has. But i feel like everything was off balanced (even though we learned more throughout the plot). Overall though I am excited to continue on and watch more later on to try and make sense of things in the future. Because of these points, I have to give this a 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣.
Anime Movie
One Piece Film: Red
This film was better than I thought it would be. If you’ve seen the current English dub you aren’t going to be too spoiled by anything other than maybe some character collaboration and a line or two to indicate the current timeline. There was also too many songs that were put in too many random places. Otherwise, I think its an intriguing story and a fantastic addition to the One Piece story 4 out of 5 stars or 4 sushi 🍣 🍣 🍣🍣
The Week Ahead
The week ahead I actually have a fun project coming up that may be an extra blog post or two haha. (You guys will have to see). But what about you guys? What did you read or watch these past two weeks? Let’s talk about it!
