Quarantine continues. I hope you are all staying safe!
I started writing Dungeon Builder’s Harem on Thursday! It was a slow start, as it always is with a new series, but I hope it’ll be good. It’s a new fantasy world. An isekai. In book one, we’ll get a little sister succubus in the harem.
So I hope it’ll be great! I’m writing it like a novel, so I actually wrote two chapters and into chapter three. I think I’ll publish a few chapters at a time, but I’ll figure that out when it comes.
Full Metal Panic 6 Light Novel came out. I’m sure many of you know FMP, it’s a popular Anime Franchise. The Light Novels that started it are coming out. They diverge from the original Anime (which is a great series) at Volume 4. For those who don’t know, it’s a mix of comedy and realistic military action. Kaname is an average high school girl who doesn’t know that she has esoteric secrets in her mind. A group of terrorist wants to kidnap her, so a mercenary group known as Mithril send in one of their best men to be her bodyguard.
Sousuke Sagara is a sixteen-year-old mecha pilot. He grew up in war-torn Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion. He’s been fighting since a kid. All he knows is war. Now he has to infiltrate peaceful Japanese society. He needs to protect Kaname, but he keeps overreacting to every situation to comical results. He’s a complete fish out of water. He has no social skills.
But when the shit hits the fan, you want Sergeant Sagara on your side.
The light novels are great. They have a lot more character growth with Sousuke in it. He’s much more realistic when you get his internal conflicts and emotions that he isn’t showing to others. He’s a stoic character. So I am really thrilled to get to read Part 6.
In manga world, I picked up a new one called After-School Bitchcraft. Now, it has a terrible title since our heroine Ririka is not a bitch. I feel like the Japanese author didn’t quite understand what the word means. She is in the gyaru (GAL) sub-culture. These are the fashion girls, obsessed with clothes, dying their hair blonde, being real tan. But she’s not that superficial. She’s friends with them, but she wants to be a vet really bad. She’s an airhead, but she’s one who wants to heal animals and take care of them. She has a drive to better herself, to learn and get good grades so she can achieve her dream.
The only problem, she’s having trouble getting chemistry. So when the new, apathetic chemistry tells his class who aren’t paying attention to him (she’s clearly at one of the lower-rank Tokyo high schools) that if they have questions, to come to see him, he doesn’t think they will. Which is fine with him. He only took the job so he can have a lab to work on his magic. In the middle of summoning something, Ririka walks right through his wards and interrupts his spell to ask him help to study.
Ririka, our airhead heroine, has a huge capacity for magic. And if she can’t control it, that will be bad. This manga has a mix of magic, fanservice, and a heroine you really find yourself rooting for. She’s so earnest in her desire to be better than she is. To step beyond her limitations. Plus, she’s cute.
Some great girls released on iStripper this week. An Eva Elfie, a Liya Stark, and a hot card from Alya Stark, but I have to say Martina Smeraldi’s first card, Younger Than Springtime, was amazing. She’s sexy and she has a great ass. Just an amazing rump. She’s cute and delightful.
A perfect card for spring time!
