DEVILMAN CRYBABY

 

 "You're not a demon, you're not a human either. You're a devilman, and so I will save you."

This is a quote from one of my favourite anime, Devilman Crybaby! It’s a series animated by Netflix but the original creator is Go Nagai.

SOUL EATER

  

“A sound soul… dwells within a sound mind, and a sound body.”

Hello there! Quoting Maka Albarn, one of the protagonists, I would like to start talking about Soul Eater,  about the anime that I watched some time ago.  I really like it and I recommend it to all fans, especially  those of the dark fantasy genre.

MORIARTY THE PATRIOT

Hi everyone and welcome back to our English blog!

I think everybody knows and likes the very famous Sherlock Holmes mystery stories written by sir Arthur Conan Doyle, so I’d like to talk about a brilliant Japanese mystery manga series titled “憂国のモリアーティ (Yūkoku no Moriāti)”, in English “Moriarty the patriot”, inspired to the world of the popular detective hoping you may like it too.

MY TOP 4 MAKOTO SHINKAI’S NOVELS

Makoto Shinkai (pseudonym of Makoto Niitsu) is a Japanese director, animator and dubber born in  the area of Nagano in 1973. He started very early to make animated films, both short films and feature films. However, the success arrived only in 2016 with his most famous film “Your Name”, considered a best seller of Japanese animation. 

Nevertheless, today I'm not going to talk about his films but about his novels. Actually, he isn’t a writer, or rather Shinkai doesn’t consider himself a writer. What  he wrote is practically the novelizations of his own screenplays, of four of them. Here they are in my top 4 list.

The magicians are helped by the servants, heroic spirits of the past or the future, summoned by magicians to whom the sacred grail gives the body of the hero chosen for that war.

I LOVE MANGA!

Useless to say I’m fond of Manga, that’s why I decided to start writing my first post for Let’s Blog! about them. Is there anybody there with the same passion for Japanese manga? I hope you’ll get in touch in the comment section, then.

ANIME VS MANGA

Hi guys! Today I'd like to share with you my latest passion: ANIME AND MANGA!

Manga is the name given to Japanese comics while  Anime is the name used to refer to Japanese cartoons.

Among the "Otaku" (noun used to describe Japanese culture's lovers) there's always been a bone of contention: which one's better?
