Reading Time: 5 minutes Leading up to its release I was looking forward to the game for many reasons. As a long-time anime fan, I’ve enjoyed many isekai anime.

Reading Time: 4 minutes In the packed year that has been 2023, there has been a lot of games that got away from me during their launch just due to the amount of great games coming out this year.
