しすたぁエンジェル TerraLunar's debut work. Good comedy, voice acting, art and effects. Takes on a more serious tone in the latter half that wasn't as strong as the slice-of-life comedy, but I still enjoyed this - in some ways it felt like rakuen-lite, so I'd recommend any fans of that game to give it a try

Hirasaka Yomi recently announced that he’s retiring from the light novel industry. I wasn’t a fan of his newer stuff but I’m still kind of sad to hear it - the baka-tsuki haganai fanTL was the very first light novel I ever read, and it and ranobe-bu are still among my favourite LNs

I'm re-reading shugo chara in jp after originally reading it in eng ~18 years ago, and I think it's fascinating how I can confidently say that ikuto is /still/ my least favourite character of all time considering all the media I've consumed in those 18 years (I was a long-suffering tadamu shipper)

五股のクズと、正しい恋の終わらせ方。 The premise was rather ridiculous but I enjoyed the banter between the mc and each of the heroines (and one poison-tongued, all powerful maid). It was also fun watching him squirm as he tries to avoid getting tangled in his steadily growing web of lies

A while back I picked up an old how-to book called 美少女CGテクニックガイド on a whim. It came with a CD that has tutorials, timelapses, and even free trials of Photoshop and Painter.
