Winter is here in aussie and all I want to do lately is hide away in my bed and watch anime on my days off. (Also I wrote that line over a month ago but still applies now, this post was very very overdue ahaha) All I see on the news lately is the northern …
Safe & Sound in the Arms of an Elite Knight – This LN Should Have Pandered To Me But Didn’t :(
When it comes to anime boys, I have a Type. All you have to do is stick an earnest knight guy into your story and I am suddenly incredibly invested. The reason I’m called “Frog-kun” online is because I love the frog knight character in Chrono Trigger. For years, Suzaku from Code Geass was one …
