Geeky Wishlist #1

I think all bookworms, nerds, geeks and anime/comics addicts always have a huge wishlist. It's something that just can't be helped, right? So let's take a look at new items that I added to my wishlist recently.

Book - Sugar Skulls by Lisa Mantchev, Glenn Dallas

Welcome to Cyrene, a city where energy is currency and music is the lifeblood of its young citizens. Everyone lives on the grid, and the residents of the world’s largest playground are encouraged to pursue every physical and emotional pleasure imaginable.

Vee is the lead singer of the Sugar Skulls, an all-girl band that is Corporate’s newest pet project. Micah haunts the city like a ghost after an overdose of a deadly illegal street drug knocks him off the grid. When Micah and Vee forge an immediate, undeniable connection, their troubled worlds collide.

Trading concert stages for Cyrene’s rooftops and back alleys, they have to evade vicious thugs and Vee’s possessive manager as they unravel the mysteries connected to their dark pasts. And before the curtain falls, Micah and Vee will bring the city to its knees in their desperate bid for love, home, and a future together.

This cover is GORGEOUS, and for the reviews that I've read, it's not the usual dystopia. Plus, it's about music and an all-girl band!

Light Novel - The Rising of the Shield Hero, Volume 1 by Aneko Yusagi

Naofumi Iwatani, an uncharismatic Otaku who spends his days on games and manga, suddenly finds himself summoned to a parallel universe! He discovers he is one of four heroes equipped with legendary weapons and tasked with saving the world from its prophesied destruction. As the Shield Hero, the weakest of the heroes, all is not as it seems. Naofumi is soon alone, penniless, and betrayed. With no one to turn to, and nowhere to run, he is left with only his shield. Now, Naofumi must rise to become the legendary Shield Hero and save the world! 

I never read any Light Novel, and I think this one may be a good start.

Revival Vol. 1: You're Among Friends

What if the dead came back to life? But not like the usual flesh-eating, brain-lover zombies we all know, but like a regular living person. That's what you'll discover in Revival - A rural noir by Tim Seeley + Mike Norton.

Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen Ep. 5 - The Pirate

Two new characters are added to Haku's party, and the harem is growing stronger.

Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen Ep. 4 - The Imperial Capital

Now, the party arrives at the capital while we watch bath scenes and get some character development, but not much plot.

Stopping some anime reviews

We're 4 weeks into the Fall season, and now I've already decided on what to watch and post.

Although I like doing weekly reviews for everything I watch, I'm started to get behind schedule, with 3 reviews to write, and I'm not even writing about Subete Ga F Ni Naru or Gochuumon Wa Usagi Desu Ka?? (that I started watching this week). So I decided to drop One-Punch Man and Sakurako-san weekly reviews for now.

Maybe next week I'll change my mind and start posting about them again, but at least for now, I'll only talk a little about all of them in a single post each week. I'll still be writing about Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen, though. That'll give me more time to post about comics, tv shows, movies and books.

Gochuumon wa usagi desu ka?? Ep 1
