Hell is Dark with No Flowers Volume 1 Manga Review

Jan 24, 17:00 manga

Somewhere between xxxHoLiC and Hell Girl lies Hell is Dark with No Flowers. ― Somewhere between xxxHoLiC and Hell Girl lies Hell is Dark with No Flowers. If you think I've made that comparison before, you're right – Matsuri's Phantom Tales of the Night can also be described that way. But Hell is Dark with No Flowers, based on the novel of the same name by Yoru Michio, is the better use of the descrip...

Jean-Karlo looks at Lynch's influence across video game history, from Zelda to Persona. ― Welcome back, folks! Longtime readers might recall that back in October of 2023, I found an old copy of the Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja artbook from Japan.

I'll play games on my clunky old Galaxy A03 every so often, but it's rarely my first choice of platform.

What makes isekai anime popular, and what kinds of isekai are fans watching the most? ― The State of Isekai, 2025 If you wanted to characterize “the biggest trends in anime of the last decade,” you might be inclined to narrow in on anime's increasingly global presence or the exploding volume of new TV anime being produced....
