Azure Flame Reloaded

A trio of generics enter a building to investigate reports of a strange man standing on the roof. Once inside, they notice a kin (stringed instrument) on the floor. Generic A: An instrument left on the floor is big news indeed! Let’s notify the palace immediately! Generics A and B depart, but C stays where [...]

No matter how absurdly powerful you are, if your name isn’t Liu Bei, your arc must come to an end sometime. So it is that Lu Bu will come to say his last “Damn you!” as his arc comes to a much-needed end. Let the chaos commence! It’s all too easy to a bit overreact.

Fuji-hime is talking to Tomomasa and Yasuaki. Fuji: Now that we’ve gone to all the effort of finding five of the eight Hachiyou, I thought I’d mention this vague phrase that might help us locate the rest. Fuji recites the phrase. Yasuaki: Ah yes, from that vague sentence, I can construct wonderfully non-specific clues that [...]

The new season is almost upon us, and yet here I am, having failed to put together any kind of autumn (or, if you prefer, fall) preview whatsoever- and nor am I intending to. Aside from the fact that many people have already done a better job of it than myself, and that I’m simply [...]

…and yes, I watched this episode myself too! What is the world coming to? The unthinkable has happened. Phyllo, staple of the Mac Anu bridge and chief coordinator of The World:r2’s HARD GAY, is gone. As the male players try to adjust to this unexpected loss, they must decide whether they can now continue along [...]

Hakuoro here. I am sorry to report that HARD GAY has taken over my body completely, and even now I grapple with my destined partner, Dii. The only hope of regaining the harem lies in defeating him and destroying the last of the HARD GAY temptations, but am I already too far gone to manage [...]

Whilst rummaging around in his grandfather’s attic, Shindo Hikaru gets more than he bargained for when he comes across an old Go board- a board that just happens to be possessed by the spirit of Heian Era Go player Fujiwara-no-Sai. Since his last chance to get out of the board and play some Go came [...]

Fuji explains the monster of the week. Fuji: Hello, everyone. This week we are being menaced by a vengeful spirit with white wings and long hair. Shimon: Why are vengeful spirits so angry? Can’t we all just live in peace? Tenma: Cut the idealism, Whipping Boy- the only peace worth having is the one you [...]

Hard as it is to believe, I have now been writing Tuesday Rumble for a month, and aside from occasional worries about running out of ideas, it’s been an enjoyable feature. Although there wasn’t room to include it this time, expect a new Tuesday Rumble feature in the near future, documenting harem masters, their conquests, [...]
