A Necessary Course Correction? A Retrospective on Remedy Entertainment's FBC: Firebreak
Last week, Remedy published its latest and final major update for FBC: Firebreak. In less than a year since release, Firebreak will no longer be supported with any major updates or new content. This may come as a shock to some, but for others, the graveyard littered with other live service games tells a different story: that the writing was on the wall all along.
Manga Review: Deep 3 Volume 1
Throughout different sports manga, we’ve seen protagonists be introduced to the sport for the first time, some that find their calling, some that start out struggling but eventually become better players. Deep 3 took me on a journey, one that I had not been on before by showcasing a player with incredible talent from the start who still needs to overcome a different kind of hurdle.
Anime First Impression: Journal with Witch
It’s not often I’m at a loss for words after one episode but Journal with Witch managed to do just that. It tugged on my heartstrings in a painful way I wasn’t expecting, and yet still left me with an upbeat message.
Review: Flip Flip Slowly
While some manga can feel the pressure of rushing out its story, especially for a single volume series, Flip Flip Slowly does the opposite and takes a leisurely stroll with how it feels to get to know someone over time.
Manga Review: Play Me Softly
We’ve all had those friends we’ve fallen out of touch with. Not necessarily for negative reasons, but oftentimes because life just becomes busy. You can’t help but wonder about that person. Sometimes you might feel the urge to reach out and try to make a connection again, other times you might run into them again because the world can sometimes feel small.
Manga Review: Snow Angel Volume 1
Don’t let the cute cover of this manga fool you, there is more to this story than a childhood best friends to lovers romance. Not in a negative way, but buckle up because this manga is an emotional journey.
Comic Review: Absolute Batman Volume 1
While I used to read comics constantly while growing up, it's been a few years since I’ve read anything, especially when it comes to DC Comics. The most recent series I’ve been interested in reading has been their stand alone alternate timeline tales such as Dark Knights of Steel (2021) and to lesser extent DC vs. Vampires (2021). While the main universe titles have lost their luster for me due to terrible writing decisions (I will never forgive them for what they did to the Super Sons), the new Absolute titles from DC drew me in yet again for a tale from elseworld to end my comic drought.
Manga Review: Hell's Paradise
I can count on one hand the number of stories that have gripped me in the first few pages. Some of my all time favorite series have taken me several chapters, even volumes before I became truly hooked on their stories. If you’ve read The Lord of the Rings you know what I’m talking about. Yet on rare occasions, something will resonate with you immediately and you’ll know, this is a story just for you. Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku is just such a story.

As we ring in the new year and update our calendars, it's time to look forward to what new video game titles will be released this year. With big anniversaries this year such as Castlevania and Zelda’s 40th, and Xbox’s 25th to name a few, video game fans know there will at least be something to look forward to this year.
Manga Review: The 13th Footprint Volume 1
Since I loved Kei Sanbe’s previous work, Erased, I immediately took note of The 13th Footprint being published by Yen Press earlier this year. Eager to see more of his writing, I went into this manga with higher than usual expectations for his new series.
Anime First Impression: May I Ask for One Final Thing?
We have all met someone we wanted to punch in the face. Someone who thought there would never be repercussions for their words or actions. Someone who needed to be humbled to be a better person. Unfortunately for most, that moment tends to stay in our imagination, and we are never able to act on it. The new fall season anime May I Ask for One Final Thing? sets up this exact premise, but with one change.
