Following a sudden earthquake-triggered dream of her meeting a Red Data wildcat, Ichigo Momomiya has begun acting more and more like a cat herself. Returning to the site of the incident to investigate she discovers that she’s been chosen to battle against a group of hostile alien lifeforms as the planetary defender Mew Strawberry, and that there are four other Mew warriors out there for her to find.

A mostly episodic magical girl action-comedy with re-occurring romance elements and occasional spots of drama.

Hikaru no Go

Posted on February 6, 2017 10:41 am by Offkorn 1 Comment

While rummaging through his grandfather’s stored things for something to pawn, Hikaru ends up possessed by the ghost of a Go instructor from the Heian period. Soon enough Hikaru becomes interested in the game as well and starts trying to become a better player.

Unlike many of this sort of series, this one doesn’t really have any comedy to speak of. It treats the game as deathly serious and even the school life portions focus on darker topics such as bullying and jealousy.

Figure 17: Tsubasa & Hikaru

Posted on January 19, 2017 1:13 pm by Offkorn Comment

After moving from Tokyo into the countryside so that her father could pursue his dream of becoming a baker, Tsubasa is having trouble fitting in at her new school. Complicating her new life further is the sudden intrusion of two aliens who have just crashed nearby with a cargo of monstrous creatures.

A sort of ‘coming of age’ daily life series that shows how Hikaru’s existence helps Tsubasa become more outgoing and shed her crippling timidness. The action-centric monster seeds plotline takes up about a quarter of each episode.
