I am aware it is August now and this should have been done in June, however I do…. dislike the prospect of reviews not reaching those who are browsing this site but dont necessarily want to go through the menus and tags to find the right series for them. THEREFORE, this article has been prepared to help showcase the reviews I have done over the course of the last 7 (+ a few days) months alongside with the score I gave them to help ensure that you make the best decision when choosing a game or anime for your perusal. All of these will be ordered by company responsible for them and then Alphabetical Order.
Over the course of this year, I have noticed that in terms of gaming, the year has been very slow so far for those who enjoy Japanese-originating games such as myself, however in turn all the companies have swarms of good games being released in the last few months, so do look forward to a better mix of anime/games. As well, as I just started reviewing visual novels, there is only the one I completed earlier this morning on the list. I hope you will keep checking out The Otaku’s Study for all the latest reviews and news on Japanese-originating media titles! For those who are interested in seeing all of my (many more) articles and game trailers/screenshots, please either click on “Archives” in the header or feel free to navigate through the tags I have been placing underneath each of the posts.
*Do note that where viable, I have only mentioned the Australian distributor if there is one. The review will remain more or less the same regardless of where you reside however your distributor will be different.
