    I started watching the One Piece anime with my fiancé. Just a few episodes that we watched after making dinner during the week. She likes it well enough!

    I am also reading One Piece, in a book club where we read an arc a month. Just finished the Arlong Park Arc! I also got caught up on Jujutsu Kaisen as well as Blue Period.

    As always I still dislike Rental Girlfriend aka Kanojo, Okarishimasu. I love the art/character design done by the author, but holy shit it is such a drag now. I don't know why I keep forcing myself to read it.

    This week I finished Montage on the suggestion of a friend. It was pretty good, interesting the whole read. I would recommend it to anyone interested in mystery or thriller!

    I only recently watched Willow, after it having been on my watchlist and shelf for a few years. I really enjoyed it! I am excited to see it continuted, I really enjoyed how different it felt from modern fantasy and action movies, Willow didn't embody the power/ego trip that I feel happens in a lot of newer movies.

    spoilers Loved that Willow didn't need ultra power magic to win in the end and just used good ole slight of hand!

    In the past week I finished Summer Time Rendering, which was great and I would highly recommend it. It felt like the whole series had and outline in a good way. I felt that some of the concepts in the series could trip up an author with weaker writing, but Yasuki Tanaka played it very well.

    Also Reading two smaller time manga (maybe webcomics?) Koibito Ijou Yuujin Miman and The Guy She was Interested in Wasn't a Guy At All which are both so fun and a breath of fresh air with all the isekai getting pumped out.

    Spy X Family has been fun to watch! I read up to the point that they get to in EP 4 a few years ago, but was never a huge fan. I think the anime adaption suits it well!

    I also just caught up on reading Rent-A-Girlfriend after being out of the loop since September. I firmly think that the manga is bad now.

    Though I felt it was trending down since after the Movie arc. And its been unbearable to get through the hawaii vacation, only to then have a three-month time skip, wtf!

    I recall an argument about whether it should be defined as genital mutilation. The person arguing against had the argument of "the baby won't even remember the pain, so it doesn't matter."

    Superman: Red Son is a fantastic mini-series that explores the idea of Superman crashing and being raised in the Soviet Union instead of the USA.
