RWBY The Official Manga vol 3 by Bunta Kinami

June 27, 2021 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

I’m pretty sure I may have reviewed a previous volume of this manga adaptation of an animated series elsewhere, but I don’t remember. So my bad if I’m repeating myself a whole bunch here. RWBY: The Official Manga vol. 3 is more of a retelling of the animated series than anything else. So these 4 main characters (Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang- odd how the color/name thing isn’t explained here, although it is in the animation) are all students at a school for Hunters/Huntresses, where the […]

The Unwritten continues with a volume that makes the weird and fictional even more indistinguishable from reality. Several things are happening all at once here. Tom, Lizzie and Savoy have reappeared in London after their jaunt in “Jud Suss”, only three months have gone by in the real world for their mere hours spent in “Jud Suss”. Tom is presumed dead in the fire at Donostia prison, and the world is abuzz with the imminent publication of the fourteenth and final Tommy Taylor novel, which […]
