Autumn/Fall 2024 Animes I’m looking forward to 

TimeFliesAway2 years ago2 years ago07 mins

I probably won’t watch the animes while they’re airing in fall/autumn 2024 (don’t have the patience to wait one week for another episode (lol), and I’m also busy publishing my novel). But these are at least some I’m looking forward to watch in general.  New to anime? These are the seasons’ starting months: (The animes…

As Minami hopes to go from…

Strange World (2022) – Movie Review

TimeFliesAway3 years ago2 years ago03 mins

It was AWESOME!! I have lost faith in Disney the last couple of years, especially with all the live-action remakes, but this… if they continue to make movies like this, they’re definitely headed into a better future!  I’m so sad I couldn’t see this in the theaters. I’m sure it would’ve been absolutely incredible to…

I found the reason quite realistic but the way it was set up with the newspaper maybe a little … forced. A cute idea but some aspects weren’t necessary.

The front cover of "YOU WISH", volume 1 on the right. Avery, a tomboy girl with brown hair, blue trousers and a black shirt with a cute burger face on it, is seen standing in a black rocky cave. She's holding an American oil lamp, which shines the light for her. She looks determined. Next to her on the right is sitting a cute dog-like being with a red mask all over his body. He has yellow eyes and is looking cutely to the reader. Dimly in the background, a monochromatic figure can be seen – a genie with a large body and small head, an earring on an ear, is angrily looking down on Avery. Text reads: ""A WHIMSICAL NEW TWIST ON THE GENIE LEGEND! THIS BOOK IS GORGEOUS!" -JEFF SMITH, AUTHOR OF BONE. YOU WISH by Jeff Victor." Left page shows the back cover. Avery and the red genie assistant can be seen hovering in air. While Avery is restless and hoping the red being won't drop her, he just smiles and looks away, tightly holding her. Background is a deep red mist. Text reads: "What if you found a genie's magic lamp, and rubbed it only to discover that You were the genie? "Magical, charming, gorgeous, funny and heartfelt! Jeff Victor's You Wish is the kind of graphic novel I wholeheartedly wish I had growing up. Aside from the glorious art, get lost in a fully realized world full of magical characters and charming lore. You will wish it would never end!" – Jorge Gutierrez, Director of The Book of Life and Maya and the Three."
