Greetings~ I’ve recently switched over to AniList to keep up with the series I’ve been reading and watching. It’s still in progress, especially my manga list because up until now I haven’t kept any track of what I’ve been reading.

Takarai Rihito has a special place within me because of her story telling and artistic style. I always go back reading her works. After the next paragraph there will be spoilers all over so if …
I wanted to write about this issue for a while, since it has been botholering me everytime I read a yaoi manga. Of course I got lazy (school being busy as ever, it was hard to sit in front of PC again) but there has been some incidents in Turkey made me and probably a …
