It seems like a disservice to have finished the first Danganronpa game and not get around to covering any of the music. There’s a cool, funky, jazzy vibe to most of the soundtrack, and several songs stick out when they … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Box 15/16 (Danganronpa)
Danganronpa is a series that I’ve wanted to get into for some time. All I’ve heard about it is that it’s sort of like a deadlier, teenage version of Phoenix Wright — a visual novel with a courtroom aspect and … Continue reading First Impressions: Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc
Sometimes I look back on things that I’ve written over the years and I can’t help but grimace a bit. For example, there’s a Skyward Sword review from more than six years ago where I called it the best Zelda … Continue reading The Steins;Gate 0 Dub Debuts Today and I’m Excited
