I started looking at Silver Spoon when you mentioned it in class pretty early on. I really liked it, definitely couldn't look at it and see Full Metal Alchemist which is nice. I learned a lot more about farming then I expected. It was really interesting hearing about the morality of eating meat, how the larger farms were quite a bit less personal compared to smaller farms however both loved thei

The influence of Manga and Anime in the West

First off I'm a salmon avocado roll. 1. I really liked this story. I think its length was perfect, overall though I found it somewhat sad. Maybe it was because of how it was drawn, or because there for most of the story nothing good really happened I just found the whole thing somewhat depressing. This could also be because I'm ending my college time, I'm actually going to become a real adult that this story spoke to me. How you can't be a kid forever but also that you can. I don't totally know but I did really enjoy reading it. 2. I was definitely able to connect to the general theme of growing up that I found in the story. As artists, I feel like we walk a fine edge between adulthood and childhood all the best stories and imaginative ideas I think come from a place in our heads that we've always had but was most active during the younger years. I also related to how Ildeung experience with grades and expectations, though I never have been as intense as stu

Sci-Fi

So I had never seen Akira, and oh my god I didn't know what I was missing out on. Though the movie was pretty confusing in some points it was awesome, whoever did the fx on the film needed a raise. I can totally see how Akira was the driving force for anime being brought to the west. I plan on reading the manga for it to actually understand the story better. I don't think I've seen a Sci-fi that told the age-old warning that technology can become bad in a better way then Akira. Also, the overall civic unrest along with how it ended makes this movie a great critic of how the world was moving forward. It was awesome.

Isekai

I have watched quite a few Isekai over the years starting of course with Inuyasha then going on to see Re: Zero, Sword Art Online, and Log Horizon. I never looked at That Time I Reincarnated as a Slime before though, I really like how Slime has evolved on some of the cliches of Isekai. How they didn't just transport into another realm but also changed races, also how it feels very video game-like, however, isn't an actual video game. I do wish some of the characters were a little bit deeper but I guess for this type of show that's not really what it's going for, also I could do with less fan fair but again this is a cliche for Isekai. Overall it's fun and I plan on continuing to view it.

Shoujo

The Shoujo I decided to read was Our Precious Conversations, which was pretty much a random pick from my Crunchyroll manga reader. It is a Shoujo revolving around romances however in a somewhat meta approach where the book constantly insults shoujo romances. I can definitely see this targeted at young girls, around the age of middle schoolers as the people in the book fit the same age, I think this book though also has some of its targets be for boys as you also experience thought through the main male character.  A lot of the ideas this work pushes are positive for young people, like just overall niceness and being accepting of people for how they are. This definitely is not my favorite book ever but it has a nice sense of innocents and youth that I found refreshing.

Oishinbo

I really liked Oishinbo, food manga is always fun and interesting to read. Oishinbo was especially cool because it really teaches you techniques and recipes in a fun way. I really enjoy how Oishinbo explores important things around food as well, such as the importance of the plates in Japanese cuisine, and the long process of making chopsticks. Oishinbo even got me wanting to make some miso soup, I probably did a lot of things wrong but it was quite fun. I was running low on tofu so used tofu puffs, and the dashi was just kombu dashi with daikon to keep it vegan.
