    Fruits Basket – Anime

    Title: Fruits Basket (フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto)

    Where to watch? Crunchyroll

    Original run: April 6th, 2019 – June 28th, 2021

    Hello, dearies! 🐱🍙

    Let’s talk Fruits Basket! If you haven’t heard of this anime or manga before, I recommend it. Also known as フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto. You can watch it on Crunchyroll and FunimationNow.

    Before starting on this one, I’d like to clarify that this is about the anime of 2019 (essentially a reboot). I haven’t watched the original anime (I didn’t know there was one) from 2001, though that one has fewer episodes, and I think they changed the story from the Manga.

    PoV: Watching Jujutsu Kaisen for the first time

    Kon’nichiwa, dearies!🗼

    I go Japanese after a good anime, I know. 😉😶‍🌫️

    So, have you heard of or watched Jujutsu Kaisen?

    Of course, are you the only one living in the past?

    If you thought that, then, no need to be so harsh. I started watching this anime recently after reading the description, and though I haven’t finished it, this is how it’s going so far…

    5 Manga to Start the Journey

    Hello, dearies! 🐱

    This is a difficult one! Why? Because we all have different tastes, and even more varies in Manga, I think. Don’t you?

    But I’ll try to give a well-rounded view… lol, I’m not, this is completely biased and oriented towards what I like the most. So here we go.

    As you might know, I like reading and my manga collection has been growing too, so these are some of the titles that I liked the most.

    Kon’nichiwa, dearies! ⭐️

    I haven’t enjoyed an Anime in a while, but this one had me glued to the screen, and the best was that the second season had just aired this year, so I got to see both in one go, problem now is that I’ll have to wait for season 3. Or I can read the Light Novel and not wait for that, so I bought the first one, it’s waiting on my Kindle.

    After saying that, let’s recap on Classroom of the Elite, an anime that makes you doubt everyone and start saying, repeatedly, don’t trust them.

    ホリミヤ
    (Horimiya)
    by Hero, Daisuke Hagiwara (Artist)

    Genres: Romance. Young Adult. School Life. Slice of Life.

    A lovely one.

    One of the first reviews I start with a one-liner I know already. 😄

    Hello, dearies! 💖

    Horimiya (Hori to Miyamura) is one of those that I first watched the anime then read the manga, but it’s alright, you can do it like that as well, there’s not much difference in the story, except for the ending of the Manga, that’s a plus for us readers.

    I’ll jump right in.

  • Maid Sama! 会長はメイド様!

    Maid Sama! 会長はメイド様!

    This one is long overdue.

    Manga: Maid Sama! (Japanese name: 会長はメイド様!, Hepburn: Kaichō wa Meido-sama!, “The Class President Is a Maid!”) 

    Author: Hiro Fujiwara

    Anime: Maid-sama (Kaichou wa Maid-Sama!) on Hulu

    Genre: Romance, Comedy, Shojo, Young Adult

    Hello, dearies! I watched Maid Sama! a long time ago, it seems it was ages past but more like ten years ago. It made me want to re-watch it.

    After watching it, I was in a frenzy because I wanted to know what else had happened since, as with many anime, you don’t quite know what happens in the end and you don’t get the whole story. There are very few that follow the original story, this is a bookish (readers) problem that we often find the adaptations to be lacking in some way. But with anime, you get a little more excited and can watch calmly.

  • Manga Characters Guaranteed to Deliver a Heartthrob

    Manga Characters Guaranteed to Deliver a Heartthrob

    Hello, dearies!

    With Valentine’s day coming closer, I decided to do a special on characters, but not any male characters but the ones from Manga because they made your heartthrob the most. At least in this particular case, with these specific characters. 💓

    Now, I say it’s from any genre, but the common denominator is some kind of romance.

    As of the next lines, pardon my fangirling all over the place. Let’s begin!
