Hyouka: You can't escape⁣⁣

Rating: 9/10 🌟⁣

⁣

♡ A masterpiece. Wholesome and compelling.⁣

⁣

♡ People might say it's boring. I strongly disagree. This is a hidden gem. Underrated anime.⁣

⁣

♡ I like the plot and storyline. There's character development. The romance and mystery are not overwhelming. Once you start this anime, you'll be invested in it.⁣

⁣

♡ Sadly, no season 2. 🥺 I recommend this to people who love mysteries.⁣

ღ High school freshman Houtarou Oreki has but one goal: to lead a gray life while conserving as much energy as he can. Unfortunately, his peaceful days come to an end when his older sister, Tomoe, forces him to save the memberless Classics Club from disbandment.⁣

⁣

ღ Luckily, Oreki's predicament seems to be over when he heads to the clubroom and discovers that his fellow first-year, Eru Chitanda, has already become a member. However, despite his obligation being fulfilled, Oreki finds himself entangled by Chitanda's curious and bubbly personality, soon joining the club of his own volition.⁣

⁣ღ Hyouka follows the four members of the Classics Club—including Oreki's friends Satoshi Fukube and Mayaka Ibara—as they, driven by Chitanda's insatiable curiosity, solve the trivial yet intriguing mysteries that permeate their daily lives.⁣

Sixty Six (Sixty Six #1-3) by Russell Molina and Ian Sta. Maria (Illustrator)

❸.❺/❺ 🌠

≛ Interesting story about the life of Mang Tino. Maganda rin ang pagkakaguhit. Malupet ang pagkakagawa.

≛ Ang dami kong tanong e. Haha Maiksi pero malaman ang storya. Mukang mabibitin din ako sa ikalawang libro nito ah. Mabuti na lang may kopya narin ako. (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)

ᳮ Kuwento ni Celestino Cabal.

Kabebertdey niya lang.

Mayroon siyang natanggap na regalo na ngayo'y unti-unti niyang binubuksan.

Ika nga ng matatanda, "Huli man daw at magaling, maihahabol din."

ᳮ The story of Celestino Cabal. His birthday has just passed. He received a gift that he now gets to open, bit by bit. As the old saying goes, “Better late than never.”

❦ Edgar Calabia SamarSi Janus Sílang at ang Lihim ng Santinakpan (Janus Sílang, #5) ❦

❺/❺ ✮

“Natakot ako na mali ako pero kakabit nga siguro lagi ng pananalig ang takot.”

-Miguel Santamaria 

Malupet. Astig. Masalimuot. Masaya.

☙ Ang dami kong gustong sabihin. May nauna na akong rebyu bago ito. Hindi talaga ako maka move on agad. Iniisip ko pa rin yung ending e. Ang hirap at ang sakit isipin. Pero tanggap ko na.

☙ Marami akong natutunan sa seryeng ito. Minsan pa nga napapatigil ako para pag nilay nilayan ang mga katagang nabasa ko. Ang haba ng paglalakbay, ngunit lahat ng istorya ay kailangang matapos. Sinimulan kong basahin yung book 5 nung May 2022. At anong buwan na ngayon? Haha

☙ Sa twing bubuklatin ko ang libro, hindi ko maituloy tuloy. Natatakot akong iwanan ang mga karakter na napamahal na sa akin. Kasabay nila akong lumuha at tumawa. Sulit ang oras na binigay ko sa pagbabasa sa buong seryeng ito. Masasabi kong isa sa mga paborito ko. At siguradong babalik balikan.

☙ Hindi porket mabait at approachable si Sir Egay kaya sinasabi kong napakaganda ng nilikha niya. KUDOS, SIR EGAY! MARAMING SALAMAT ulit. SOBRANG GANDA TALAGA. At kung hindi ka pa nakakabili ng sariling kopya, ano pa inaantay mo? ♥

“OO. Okey lang matakot basta hindi tayo susuko.”

-Janus Silang

 

☙ Hanggang sa muli, Janus. Salamat. Hindi kita makakalimutan. Hindi ko kayo makakalimutan. Imposible. ☺

๑ Matapos ang paulit-ulit na pakikihamok laban kay Sidha at sa Tiyanak, natagpuan na ni Janus sa wakas si Tala. O si Tala na nga ba ito?

๑ Dinala siya ng babae sa pinakapusod ng Dalem-- ang bayan sa kailaliman ng Kalibutan na itinatag ng mga pusong na kumukupkop kay Tala sa loob ng mahabang panahon-- para ipaalam kay Janus ang papel nito bilang ikalimang sinag sa pangwakas na laban para sugpuin ang Tiyanak.

๑ Sa huling aklat na ito ng serye, nag-aabang kay Janus ang lihim na maghahatid sa mga pakikipagsapalaran at pasya na kailangan niyang gawin sa ngalan ng kaligtasan ng Santinakpan!

One Week Friends (Isshuukan Friends)

⁣

Rating: 8/10 🌟⁣

๑Underrated, wholesome, heartwarming, and has a unique concept.

๑Hase and Fujimiya are pure and innocent. I like the character development in each of the episodes.

๑My favorite character is Shougo. 😍 He's mysterious and intimidating. Some might think that he's cold. He's blunt and rational, the sort of person who keeps you grounded. Those people act like they don't care, but they do. And Saki!!! Warm and Kawai! I want more Shougo and Saki moments. 🥺

๑This anime is surprisingly decent. Could have been better in some aspects, but I don't regret it. It's a hidden gem. A solid 8/10. Not my favorite, but one that I can recommend to a friend. Worth my time. 😊

⁣
༻High school sophomore Yūki Hase noticed that Kaori Fujimiya, his classmate, was always alone.

༻He tried to start a conversation with her but was turned down: "My memories of friendship can last only a week," she said.

༻Despite of knowing this shocking truth, Yūki keeps trying to be Kaori's "new" friend every week.
