vol 1 & and halfway through vol 2 - I found manga first but I had to read more. Isekai where MC gets to be a kindergartener of 300 natural disasters that can flatten the city. A bit on the nose with anti-racist, anti-facist messaging but author doesn't get why it's bad. The antagonists behaviour is irrational as he is supposed to the brilliant tactician.

::: spoiler spoiler vol 1
Instead of cutting of the food for the ostriches so that ostriches will destroy the enemy nation he delivers them more.

Still fun and hilarious adventure when we suspend our disbelief. 7/10

Other than weekly discussion, and episode releases there are couple type of post that you could make.

  1. Looking for recommendations - self explanatory. You provide what genre of a show you are looking for and people will recommend the best ones. (More abstract and crazy requirements it's more fun to interact with)
  2. Reviews - If you watched the show and you have opinions you could share them as a post
  3. Hosting/participate in a rewatch - If you want to (re)watch a show that isn't airing currently you could make a chain of posts for each episode, and invite people to watch with you. Usually host prepares some deeper episode analysis but that's not required.

Last week I had exams so instead of studying I procrastinated and read web novel Am I inside a Rom-Com? - The foreground plot is about a isekai-regression writer MC who gets roped into making a film with teenagers. The main plot is about how he struggles with burn-out, creativity and pleasing the readers or creating for yourself. The juicy sub-plot is about how real life author banters with the reader about meta-aspects of the work. For example author makes a question in the title, and the one who answers isn't the main character but the reader. (There is other meta-stuff but that would be a spoiler IMO) 9/10

Nice! Your art got better and more consistent. one nit-pick would be that on bottom panel of page 12 I would put some background. a tent or some mountains would fill up the blank space and better place the characters in the camp.

Kneecap scene has induced in me various emotions. So good job doing that.

I don't know why I had hard time keeping up with the story. Maybe I was reading right to left, maybe there was too many characters or just my attention span was too short. Probably just a skill issue on my part.

Couple of weird choices regarding the adaptation. English translation of "princess", in LN Quof translated as just "my lady", and how ferdinand cast the spell in full view.

I kinda like how fake and stiff Rozmyne persona feels. The coldness of nobility is not something I felt as much in the Light Novel.

Also Chekhov stockpiles his heap of guns.
