Most manga fanatics are familiar with Tokyo Ghoul by now, and I think it starts to really take off in the 3rd and 4th volumes as the world is a bit more fleshed out, and the initial impression of ghouls beating up on each other and preying on random people in the darkness is scratched away into […]

Review: The Demon Prince of Momochi House Manga Vol 1 & 2
I’m not one to pass up a decent Shojo manga, and I have heard some good things about the Demon Prince of Momochi House (Momoshi-san Chi no Ayakashi Ouji in Japanese) over the last few months.
