Livetweeting Sera Myu Tanjou! Ankoku no Princess Black Lady

Storify. As is to be expected from the title (Birth! The Princess of Darkness Black Lady) this is a Myu retelling of the Black Moon arc. It looks… a little differently from what you might be expecting, though. It’s made a couple of changes to allow for the whole senshi cast to appear in the […]

Book Talk: The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet

The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet is… You know when you’re reading a book that everyone loves and you can see why they love it and yet, somehow, it just never clicked when you were reading? That’s what this book was like for me. T_T I loved all the individual elements, but they […]

Livetweeting Last Dracul Final Chapter – The Seal of the Super Planet Death Vulcan

Here’s the Storify! It got a bit confusing near the end because the musicals really don’t build up their backstory that well – and this one was about half an hour shorter than the others and it could really have used that to build up its narratives and… Honestly, I have a lot of sulky […]

Livetweeting Sera Myu – Transylvania no Mori (Revised)

As promised, tonight’s musical is the revised version of Transylvania no Mori. You can read the Storify here. There were, um, quite a few changes to this musical. The second half especially is massively different, with a far greater focus on the Samael/Sailor Quartet as enemies and a completely different role for Astarte that, while […]

Livetweeting SeraMyu Transylvania no Mori

And after a weeklong delay, we finally return to the livetweeting of the second instalment in the Dracul saga of Sera Myu. You can read the livetweets here.
