UtaPri: Beast's Affections

This was on my folder for more than a month, I had the sketch done during the event period with line art and the base color, but I never knew what to do with the background. So it was just sitting there until I finally had the energy yesterday to finish it.

I'm a sucker for fairytales, especially Disney AUs - it just... has a special place in my heart hehe

The girl is my UtaPri OC Saeki Nakahara, a former idol-composer whose idol group got disbanded. So yeah...

2019 2.5D Actors ranking

I decided to do two rankings of my top 50 2.5D actors. One in terms of acting skill and level, and one in terms of how much I like them. 

RULES: 

1. I must have seen them in at least one 2.5D production and at least 2 different stage shows. And liked them in at least two different roles for their acting level

2. They must still be active in 2.5D shows.

3. I have not taken how much I like the actor into account. I am not a fan of all of these actors. I simply think they have exceptional acting ability.

Please don’t get offended, these are my opinions.

In the brackets I have included maximum three roles that I liked them in

Bookshelf Overload: July 2017

I ended up picking up a few more things than I had initially planned to in July (including more anime series than usual). Partly to blame was the huge month-long anniversary sale at RightStuf. Granted, some of the items that I ordered during the sale didn’t arrive until August, so they won’t be found in the list below. Also not represented (although perhaps they should be) are the books that I bought as replacements for some of the materials that I already owned but lost to water damage from a radiator leak last month. But as for the manga to arrive in July that do appear on the list below that I was especially happy to see, there was Kentaro Miura’s Berserk, Volume 38 (the previous volume was published in 2013), Shigeru Mizuki’s Kitaro and the Great Tanuki War (technically released in June), and Izumi Tsubaki’s Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun, Volume 8 (which continues to be a delight). I also finally got around to picking up Tetsu Kariya and Akira Hanasaki’s Oishinbo, A la Carte: Izakaya: Pub Food, the final volume of the series to be published in English. July had a fair number of interesting debuts in store for me, too, including Gou Tanabe’s H.P. Lovecraft’s The Hound and Other Stories (a nice addition to the horror manga available in translation), Yuki Fumino’s I Hear the Sunspot (a truly lovely manga), and Haruko Ichikawa’s Land of the Lustrous, Volume 1 (which, if nothing else, has stunning artwork).

Manga! The Ancient Magus’ Bride, Volume 7 by Kore Yamazaki Berserk, Volume 38 by Kentaro Miura Blame!, Omnibus 2 by Tsutomu Nihei Bungo Stray Dogs, Volume 3 by Kafka Asagiri Don’t Be Cruel: Plus+, Volume 1 by Yonezou Nekota Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma, Volume 18 written by Yuto Tsukuda, illustrated by Shun Saeki Fruits Basket, Omnibus 2 by Natsuki Takaya Hana & Hina After School, Volume 2 by Milk Morinaga H.P. Lovecraft’s The Hound and Other Stories by Gou Tanabe I Hear the Sunspot by Yuki Fumino Kitaro and the Great Tanuki War by Shigeru Mizuki Land of the Lustrous, Volume 1 by Haruko Ichikawa The Legend of Zelda: Legendary Edition, Omnibuses 3-5 by Akira Himekawa Love Com, Volumes 5-13 by Aya Nakahara Million Tears, Volume 1 by Yuana Kazumi Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun, Volume 8 by Izumi Tsubaki Oishinbo, A la Carte: Izakaya: Pub Food written by Tetsu Kariya, illustrated by Akira Hanasaki Princess Jellyfish, Omnibus 5 by Akiko Higashimura Samurai Crusader, Volumes 1-3 written by Hiroi Oji, illustrated by Ryoichi Ikegami Twinkle Stars, Omnibus 3 by Natsuki Takaya Your Name, Volume 1 written by Makoto Shinkai, illustrated by Ranmaru Kotone

Bookshelf Overload: April 2017

I started at my new job in April, which has gone pretty well so far, but it has still been a bit of a stressful transition moving from one library to another. As a result, considering my tendency to stress-buy books, my personal library increased in size a fair bit. (Still, I did do a little better reigning myself in in April than I did in March.) Lately I’ve also noticed that my buying habits have changed somewhat, too. I’m not pre-ordering as much as I once was and so each month am playing more catch-up with past releases. Which is why I’ve only recently discovered that I tremendously enjoy series like Natsuki Takaya’s Twinkle Stars. As for more current releases that I was particularly excited about, the fifth omnibus of Inio Asano’s Goodnight Punpun and Wataru Waanabe’s Yowamushi Pedal were both published in April. I’ve apparently also been craving prose works. One of the more interesting projects that I’ve come across in a while is Keshiki, a series of eight chapbooks from a new publisher, Strangers Press, which are translations of short fiction by Japanese authors. (You’ll find them individually listed below in the section for novels, even though that’s not an entirely accurate categorization.)

Manga! Aoharu X Machinegun, Volume 2 by Naoe Earthian, Volumes 1-2 by Yun Kouga Flying Witch, Volume 1 by Chihiro Ishizuka Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma, Volume 17 written by Yuto Tsukuda, illustrated by Shun Saeki Goodnight Punpun, Omnibus 5 by Inio Asano Haikyu!!, Volume 10 by Haruichi Furudate I am a Hero, Omnibus 3 by Kengo Hanazawa Kase-san and Morning Glories by Hiromi Takashima Love Com, Volume 4 by Aya Nakahara Mobile Suit Gundam: Thunderbolt, Volume 1 by Yasuo Ohtagaki My Hero Academia, Volume 2 by Kouhei Horikoshi Nichijou, Volume 2 by Keiichi Arawi Of the Red, the Light, and the Ayakashi, Volumes 4-5 by Nanao Pet Shop of Horrors, Volumes 1-8 by Matsuri Akino Record of Lodoss War: Lady of Pharis, Volumes 1-2 written by Ryo Mizuno, illustrated by Akihiro Yamada Twinkle Stars, Omnibuses 1-2 by Natsuki Takaya Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches, Volumes 10-12 by Miki Yoshikawa Yona of the Dawn, Volume 5 by Mizuho Kusanagi Your Lie in April, Volumes 10-11 by Naoshi Arakawa Yowamushi Pedal, Omnibus 5 by Wataru Watanabe

Bookshelf Overload: January 2017

Looking at the much more reasonable Bookshelf Overload for January after the absurdity that was December’s is kind of strange. I feel like I must have missed something, but no, the list below is all of the media that made its way onto my shelves (or at least into the house) in January. Granted, this does not include everything that was actually purchased in January–some of that is still in the mail. Even some of my most anticipated January release have yet to arrive for one reason or another (I’m looking at you The Girl on the Other Side). On the other hand, some of February’s releases made their way into my hands early. 2017 is apparently off to an appropriately chaotic start. Anyway. Two of the manga released in January that I was most looking forward to that actually managed to arrive on time were Kore Yamazaki’s The Ancient Magus’ Bride, Volume 6 and Junji Ito’s Dissolving Classroom. Another cool thing that I discovered in January but which was actually published in October was the USCA English Edition anthology. USCA is an independent manga magazine in Japan so anyone interested in alternative manga in translation will likely want to track the anthology down. (I found my copy through Seite Books’ online store.) I was also happy that Chan-wook Park’s film The Handmaiden (which is inspired by Sarah Water’s novel Fingersmith) received a physical release in North America. I never did get around to writing a quick take, but I saw the film in the theaters and it was excellent. Sadly, the DVD seems to be a pretty bare-bones release.

Manga! The Ancient Magus’ Bride, Volume 6 by Kore Yamazaki Black Clover, Volume 1 by Yūki Tabata The Demon Prince of Momochi House, Volume 7 by Aya Shouoto Dissolving Classroom by Junji Ito Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma, Volumes 14-15 written by Yuto Tsukuda, illustrated by Shun Saeki Haikyu!!, Volume 8 by Haruichi Furudate Love Com, Volumes 1-3 by Aya Nakahara My Love Story!!, Volume 11 written by Kazune Kawahara, illustrated by Aruko Yona of the Dawn, Volume 4 by Mizuho Kusanagi USCA English Edition by Various

Comics! Angel Catbird, Volume 1 written by Margaret Atwood, illustrated by Johnnie Christmas and Tamra Bonvillain Devil’s Candy, Chapters 1-2 by Rem and Bikkuri Gorgeous by Cathy G.
