Your Pain? My Pain.: Kizu Review

Kizu, written by Otsuichi and drawn by Hiro Kiyohara, follows the life of Keigo. Like most other children, Keigo attends school, but his school is different.

Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica is by now a show that is certainly well-known within the anime community.

However, perhaps I should have just gone for the medium it was intended to be enjoyed as.

Welcome to Purgatory: Death Parade Review

Or, should they be reincarnated?
