Anime Spotlight #66: Rascal Does Not Dream Of Santa Claus

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Rascally Animeister. Merry Christmas week, Ticketholders! I promised in this Easter's review of the Bunny-Girl anime and first three Rascal movies that if things worked out in terms of release schedule, I would review Rascal Does Not Dream Of Santa Claus for Christmas, and here we are. I'd rather skip the usual credits copy that I start off these Anime Spotlight reviews with, but in the spirit of the series' quantum insanity (and because copy and paste exist, and I have some slightly different things to say), I've decided to repeat myself as a gift just to mess with you. Though not sporting the lengthiest title I've ever seen, 2025's  Rascal Does Not Dream Of Santa Claus  is a thirteen episode anime adaptation of the next three Volumes of the  Rascal  (literal Japanese translation:  Teenage Pig )  Does Not Dream  light novel-turned- manga  series (as is the typical print media model in Japan) written by...

I also have a decent start on my Madness Of Wonderland  review and an idea for another bit of bonus content for it. As for next week,  Gachiakuta  still hasn't finished airing, I haven't written a word about it, and I have enough on my plate that I'm seriously considering putting its review off for another week or two so I can f...

Zenescope - Omnibusted #37: Wonderland Volume Two

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Festive  Omnibuster . Much like with  Volume One , Volume Two of the  Wonderland  Ongoing series has no obvious discrepancies between the ComiXology version and the...version I downloaded  One Piece  at a time, so to speak. The reason for this is likely because the "patched" version is a peg-legged instance of the digital/ComiXology edition, rather than a meticulous scan of the physical trade. And seeing as how I  don't  have a physical copy  or  the time or money to acquire one, I cannot speak to any difference in effort between the physical and digital editions. One thing of note, however, is that, around the time of the original release of  Wonderland  #8 (the third part of this five-issue Volume),  Zenescope  began using Digital Edition covers for their...digital editions of individual comics (which were just randomly selected Common retail covers with a Digital Edition mark ...
