Anime Watcher / Manga Reader

Here it is.  Bunny Drop.  A near-perfect slice-of-life manga.  There are no heroes, crazy villians bent on world domination, or even overblown cooking contests.  Just regular old everyday life.  That may sound to interesting, but it is. Bunny Drop follow the a man called Daikichi and his younger aunt who he's raising as a daughter, Rin.  He winds up with custody of the girl when one of his relatives dies and her mother can't be found, leaving her without a parent, and none of the other relatives want her.  Daikichi decides to take up the mantle of father after seeing how everyone treats her.  It's a situation so complicated Jerry Springer's head would spin. Having realized what he's gotten himself into only after getting the girl home, he starts having the worries any father has.  What school do I send her to?  How much will uniforms cost?  Who will take care of her while I'm at work?  It's all genuine and charming. Over the course of time, Rin gets a

Upon starting to read Dragons Rioting, I immediately thought of Ikkitousen.  Who wouldn't?  There are a lot of similarities between the two series'.  Brutal battles between hot girls and lots of fan service?  Check.  A poor retelling of Romance of Three Kingdom?  Check.  A lame male protagonist who seemingly serves no purpose?  Check.

Anyway, what does Rintaro do, knowing that death could be an accidental bump away?  Transfer out?  Of course not.  That would mean he had at least two working brain cells, effect

Cute.  If Cells At Work could be described in one word, that would be it.  All one needs to do is open the book to find out just how cute it can be. Cells At Work is a manga tour of what happens when your cells...go to work.  The cells are depicted as human beings doing various jobs, from delivering nutrients throughout the body to fighting diseases and allergens.  It's all depicted in a fashion that's hilarious, charming, and educational all at once.  Rest assured, it's entertaining. That story mainly follows a delivery woman called Red Blood Cell (yes, that's her name), as she observes other cells doing what they do.  Everyone she meets, from the Platelets (depicted as children), White Blood Cell (depicted as a germ-killing badass), Macrophage (a machete-wielding lolita), and others are all fun to watch her interact with.  As stated before, it's all silly, educational, and entertaining. So what kind of adventures will Red Blood Cell take you on?  You'll
