To start the year off, I chose to take a short look at 3 fairly new series that caught my eye. Those 3 manga being A Witch’s Life in Mongol, Tower Dungeon and Akane-banashi. Now that I’ve read 2 volumes from each of these 3 series, I felt it would be a waste to not talk about them at a bit more length in the field where I feel most natural, that being the blog.
Now, I usually only do reviews for a series I either finish or make significant progress in, so doing a review for only 2 volumes might usually be pointless, especially because of the amount of depth I like to go into. That can be remedied if I just put 3 shorter reviews together into this one larger blog post.
This is what I’m calling a Review Roundup, where I do a shorter review for multiple manga I’ve been reading. Mostly for when I start a new series.
Let’s begin!
