Good news everyone!

This week’s midweek discussion question is a simple one:

What is your favorite genre?

My favorite are fantasy novels. Bonus points for everything that has a leg in the Slice of Life genre as well. Even more bonus points for everything that has little to no drama. I read to relax I can only read so many books that don’t let me relax at a given time. Reading the current arc of Bookworm is exhilarating and bad for my finger nails, but I really need something comfy in between.

    I can’t say I’ve read Tearmoon Empire in any language. But as far as Youjo Senki is concerned, the anime pretty much completely ignores the source material. It’s truly an abominable adaptation…

      Ah come on now… Did the lightnovel have a completely unhinged Aoi Yuuki? No, it did not! But you convinced me. I put the first volume eon my plan to read list.

        I’m just going by the standard of “how well did the anime put on screen what’s written in the light novel”, and in that regard it did do a rather poor job. But I can’t disagree with loving Yuuki Aoi at her most…dangerous, shall we say. The chemistry between her/Tanya and Hayami Saori as Visha is fucking impeccable.
