Definitely something that needed to be video recorded. Impressions: I will admit that the opening scene made me laugh. For a lot of reasons. What kind of conversation must you have with someone that you just met that would lead to video taping a contract where party A agrees to not out party B, …
I Will PARRY Everything #01 — Random Midtown Minotaur
Why was there a giant minotaur in the middle of a completely empty city again?

With Tokidoki Bosotto Russia-go de Dereru Tonari no Alya-san it comes down to a couple of factors. First, it has a …
