Review: My Hero Academia, Vol. 3

My Hero Academia, Vol. 3 My Hero Academia, Vol. 3 by Kohei Horikoshi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

10/10 series, everything to be said has already been said in past reviews.

I’m so fricken hype for the anime you have no idea. I’m just sad because I’m quite sure the anime is going to surpass the volumes that are out in English, as I would have liked to have read all the manga before seeing it animated. By counting the calendar I’ve deduced that by the time the next volume is released (August 2nd, 2016) the anime would have aired 18 episodes. Now, I don’t know if it’s even going to have 18 episodes in the first run, but either way I’m *pretty* certain that it will pass the content in these four volumes by then. Sigh, I was hoping that the next volume would be out earlier during the airing of the anime so it could supply me with some last minute content before they aired it.

*EDIT!!!!*
I was terribly confused when I wrote this review! For some reason I was under the impression this is the fourth book, so August 2nd is actually the release for the fifth book! The fourth book comes out May 3rd which is fantastic! There will only be five episodes out by then which means there might actually be a chance to get last second new content! Either that or we'll be able to read what we just saw aired. Who knows! Either way this is exciting.

Review: 寄宿学校のジュリエット（３）

寄宿学校のジュリエット（３） by 金田陽介 My rating: 5 of 5 stars Brb, crying. Not actually, though. Like, I didn’t shed any actual tears or even get close to it, it’s just that this series… is so good . The romance between Romeo and Juliet is still weirdly innocent, but the actual story is so engrossing and entertaining. It also seems like almost literally every single character is complex and interesting and multi-layered. (Only the background characters like Maru’s lackeys are undeveloped, but honestly they really don’t need any development anyway.) The relationships between characters keep getting more and more complex, and the situations that the characters have to deal with are also super juicy. This is such an addicting series. My initial problem with Romeo and Juliet’s relationship was that it seemed pretty unhealthy and one-sided to me. Later, I found it very weird how sexually immature they both are, and how un-intimate their relationship is. What is interest...

Review: Bitter Witness: Otto Dix and the Great War

Bitter Witness: Otto Dix and the Great War by Linda F. McGreevy My rating: 0 of 5 stars This is a very unique and interesting academic text. There are no other examinations of the German artist Otto Dix, his war experience, and his war-related art that are quite as in-depth as this one, while also covering a wide range of different aspects and angles of not only the artist's story, but also the Great War's. I used this as a source for a University research essay I wrote on the effects of Dix's war experience on the creation and effects of his painting Skat Players (1920). I was very late in starting my research so I unfortunately had to stick to only reading the information I could use for my own examination, rather than being able to devour this book in its entirety. However, the library requires this book be returned at the end of January of next year, so I have some time now to actually finish this book since the semester has finished...

Review: Spells & Sleeping Bags

Spells & Sleeping Bags by Sarah Mlynowski My rating: 3 of 5 stars This book was infuriating. Miri was super annoying during book 2, but she started this book off with some funny burns toward Rachel which made me think maybe she would be better in this book. Ha. No. She wasn’t. Miri. Oh Miri Miri Miri. So dumb. And it was annoying how it seemed like she didn’t even learn anything from the last book. She’s still all about saving the world and whatnot and being a dumbass. And she talked about poofing up money to help her help people, which is extremely illogical because she knows that poofing up money means she’s stealing money from somewhere else. Way to “help” out the world you fucking idiot. For the majority of this book I reckon she was under some kind of “emotion amplifying” spell but honestly that’s no excuse since she’s still her dumbass self. (view spoiler) [Her figuring out that Fake Rachel wasn’t real Rachel was nice and all but felt a bit...
