For some context, I've watched 'Kamen Rider W' and 'Begins Night' before the anime but did not read the post-story manga (which is what the anime is based on).
Continuing off of Fuuto Tantei/Fuuto Pi, Shotaro explains how it all started: the origins of him, his job, how he received the Double Driver, and how he first met Philip. This movie is essentially a retelling of the 'W' portion in the movie: "Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider W & Decade: Movie War 2010"
Due to my prior knowledge of the 'Begins Night' event, I felt a little impatient getting to the "new stuff". The majority of the
...
movie is a flashback, but there are some minor differences from the live-action version most of which are just extra scenes and details but one scene somewhat conflicts with another of W's live-action movies but is ultimately not important for the viewer know or anyone to really gripe about.
The ending of this movie is where the anime continues off hinting at further plot developments should Fuuto Pi get a second season and I really do hope we get more seasons.
The art, animation, music, voice acting, and sound design are all great. Absolutely no complaints there. I wanna say that the pacing is a little slow but I think that's just me being impatient due to me already knowing the main gist of the flashback.

This manga got axed after 18 chapters.
'Reincarnated as the Most Hated Villain' is an isekai manga about a man named Seto Arima reincarnating into a popular villain character from a game. Which he then attempts to avoid his ill-fate by doing good deeds and while also having no choice but to stay in-character.
So just by that short summary, you should already know this kind of story prompt is a dime-a-dozen nowadays. Super powerful reincarnated main protagonist who is seen as bad, slowly gets the people around him to warm up, prominent heroine(s) just won't leave him alone, yadda yadda.
While having good enough art and artstyle,
...
due to its generic plot and characters as well as the fact that it got axed after a short run it's hard to recommend this to anyone looking for another 'villain but not' isekai manga to sink their teeth into.

A genuine sleeper hit.
The story starts off with the main character, Takigami Hiroto being threatened by his older step-sister that she'll kill him once he graduates with him not understanding why. The setting of the world is then explained, where 1 in 20 people have gained a special ability. Though the powers males gain are significantly weaker than the powers females gain thus shifting society's view on gender roles. Those with powers are required to attend 'The Academy' and Hiroto's step-sister is touted to be the strongest.
Hiroto's ability is 'Hacking Ghost' where he can see and talk to spirits. However, he meets a Spirit who
...
once had his ability and reveals that it can do more than just talk to spirits. At the moment of climax through consensual (maybe) sex, Hiroto can grab a nearby spirit and have them possess his target. Through this, he gains allies that could help him stand up to his step-sister and avoid dying and possibly uncover a deeper conspiracy regarding the school, his step-sister, and his step-mother.
I thought this was gonna be another simple, trash, reverse-gender roles harem manga but as the story continues with Hiroto recruiting more and more allies, I become more and more invested. The humor, the personalities, the recruitment plans, it's all very entertaining and I hope the manga keeps up its momentum.

This is a manga adaptation of the visual/kinetic novel of "I Walk Among Zombies" which is an adaptation of the web novel/light novel.
Yuusuke Takemura, Age 25, a former salaryman who was bitten by a "weird old man" and passed out at his apartment for 3 days. During this time, the zombie apocalypse has occurred and Takemura discovers that the zombies won't attack him, even if he attacks them or drag them around.
As he freely travels around and meets other survivors, he quickly realizes that he dislikes "emotional baggage" and seeks to be practical when it comes to other people: only being with them as long
...
as is beneficial. Thus Takemura keeps his quirk about zombies not attacking him a secret as he doesn't want to become a 'food mule' for other survivors or be treated as an 'infected'
Despite my slightly above-average score of 6 out of 10, I actually did enjoy this manga.
I think it's a slightly refreshing take on a protagonist that isn't so 'goody' & virtuous, bad in some aspects but not quite evil. I almost wanna say he's as 'realistic' as someone would be in the zombie apocalypse who is on his own.
The art is pretty good and the manga features full colored pages as well, on top of new character designs for nearly all the characters due to the different artist for the manga. The only downside is the the scene-by-scene transitions between the manga panels. A lot of the time I don't realize a bit of time has passed or when the protagonist suddenly shifts from one location to another.
According to some people, the web novel & visual novel ends where chapter 37 & 38 is as that's where the author abandoned the story. Due to this, the manga's story seems to be in a 'happy ending' sort of place all of a sudden after just a few chapters of conflict with a ton of unanswered subplots & questions.
However due to the manga's popularity (it was even announced that it'll have a TV series!) the author has come back to continue the manga's story. So from chapter 38, we'll be getting new story arcs.
I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this manga as chapters come out.

Fair warning: This is a semi-comedic power-fantasy manga that has a lot of gore and erotic scenes.
Another power-fantasy isekai that really didn't need to be an isekai, Takamichi was a Japanese man who was killed by a oncoming truck and is now reincarnated into an Incubus, a creature who gains power through sex with various women. Although he was reincarnated and trapped in Hell/Demon Realm, he quickly becomes extremely powerful on par (or even stronger) than the Demon Lord of Hell himself. Takamichi desires to find a way out of hell due to him wanting to unlock more skills/powers as his Incubus powers have prerequisites
...
like touching the boobs of an Elf, having sex with a nun, and other specific various erotic conditions.
Despite that seemingly funny summary, there's a lot of gore & tragic circumstances present in most of this manga. Ripped up bodies, intestines spilling out, all the edgy stuff despite how comedic the protagonist is, the situations & antics he gets himself in, and the people around him.
You really should go in thinking this is a erotic doujinshi with an ongoing story than another "unhealthy snack" manga you can just pick up. The story itself is extremely basic, very fast-paced (in a bad way), and has all the usual power-fantasy tropes you'd expect plus the sexcapades from Takamichi being an incubus. His powers vary wildly from being simply sex-related to "whatever the plot needs at the time."
There are TONS of situations where everyone jobs to the baddies and all hope is lost and, of course, Takamichi shows up and easily smashes them. Even as the author continues to raise the stakes where he ass-pulls power-ups, unbeatable enemies, and world-shaking events for the various antagonists or whatever.
The art is pretty good, I don't think I ever thought that a page looked bad but the paneling and scene-by-scene transitions could be improved though. Many times I felt like the story moved too fast just to show how hopeless and powerless people are in the face of their enemies.
The manga is very much a "either you love it or you don't" kind of manga. I definitely would not recommend this to anyone who wants a serious read or is not looking for any degenerate type of content.

An extremely powerful female Samurai named Ginko, who craves an honorable death in battle is denied that honor due to her being so powerful. She proceeds to pray and beg at a Buddha shrine for circumstances to change and was then transported into another world that resembles a medieval fantasy complete with monsters, magic, and magical races/species such as Elves and Dwarves.
At first, I was really intrigued by the premise but as the story goes on the same situations keep reenacting itself: Problem that everyone struggles with, Ginko shows up, everyone warns her of the dangers, Ginko easily cleans house, then everyone has shocked pikachu
...
face. Despite how many "high tier" heroes the story keeps introducing, it kind of feels like everyone is incredibly weak & incompetent compared to the Demon army and Ginko is just absurdly strong despite lacking natural mana that the residents of this world has.
The art is also a weird blend of really simple, almost borderline chibi, and really detailed at times. I'm not 100% on it as it can really downplay a lot of the seriousness of some scenes as this manga can come off as very hopeless at times with all the deaths.
The story itself is a little confusing as side and minor characters would show up, sometimes briefly share their backstory, and then lose to whatever threat is up at the time. Then the story would proceed talk up whatever Demon that's supposed to be a massive threat for the area and then Ginko would defeat them through sheer brute force. They introduce so many characters that simply die to Ginko regardless of their gimmick abilities, I'm having a hard time remembering them all and to be honest nearly all the side characters that follow Ginko are pretty useless and are only there to hype up the demon threat.
Personally I'm losing interest in this manga quite rapidly but I think the story has gotten past the point where they introduce all the Demon Lieutenants/Generals and they're starting to make their move so we'll see how interesting things will get but I'm not holding my breath.

This manga is kind of all over the place. It's a harem story, a tragic story, a comedic story, a serious story, an incest story, a romance drama, a school drama, a sports drama, a self-depreciating story, a self-improvement story... I'm not really sure what I'm getting into.
The main character, Yukito, starts off with failing to confess his love to his childhood friend before she found someone else and is emotionally crushed by this which leads to him having some serious self-pity and closes himself off emotionally to everyone. This leads to him believing he has bad luck with women as his mom, sister, childhood
...
friend, and various female friends all seemingly traumatized him in some way.
However, as the story goes on, it's revealed that various misunderstandings and unfortunate circumstances occurred on the women's side as well that led to the various misfortunes on Yukito. There's a pretty big event regarding him and his sister that probably caused his way of thinking and acting to this day but I don't think it's ever been directly blamed on.
So all the girls seemingly throw themselves at Yukito out of both guilt and affection to right their perceived wrongs, restore former relationships, and potentially also make him their boyfriend (Including his sister & maybe also his mother as well). Yukito reacts to all this with some serious mental gymnastics to avoid any contact or social connections with these people due to him believing he is the one at fault for what happened in the past. Sometimes it's played with dry humor, sometimes it's taken pretty seriously.
As I mentioned the story is all over the place, not just juggling all the characters and their subplots but also in terms of pacing. Every chapter seems to bring in another character with some minor connection to Yukito and then some lame excuse for a weak subplot that gets somewhat resolved very easily. I've been having trouble keeping up with all the characters and the strange manga designs for the characters (mainly the eyes and eyelashes) haven't been helping.
I'll probably come back now and then to see what's up but I'm losing interest and I'm not the only one since this manga has went through like 4 or 5 scanlation teams already.

I will be talking about some events/arcs that happen in the manga so technically that's a spoiler but this isn't the type of story that many would care to go in blind or not.
'No Matter How I Look at It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!' also known as 'Watamote' is a manga about Tomoko Kuroki, a socially-awkward femcel who yearns to be popular and attempts to do so in her own cringey way. At least until volume 7...
Watamote starts off with Tomoko as a cringey school girl who can only comfortably talk to old schoolmates or her family. Everyone else though, she acts
...
very awkward around. However starting in Volume 7 is where the "Field Trip arc" to Kyoto happens. This is where many in the fandom say is the start of the shift in "tone" in the manga going forward as more recurring characters start to appear and hang around Tomoko even borderline obsess over her. The manga seemingly went from "cringey social awkwardness" to "yuri-bait slice-of-life".
This shift in tone caused a major divide among the fandom as those who enjoyed Tomoko's femcel tendencies felt like the manga no longer makes sense for Tomoko as she is now making friends and has become more sociable on top of the story moving away from Tomoko's cringey schemes to become more popular.
Personally I am part of the fandom that did not find the early social awkwardness very interesting or entertaining. Even the anime has failed to gain traction for a season 2 for a long while now because many felt the same way. When the manga became more of a slice-of-life story with all the new characters, it became significantly much better in my honest opinion despite essentially becoming another slice-of-life school manga.
Moving past the manga's shift in tone, the author & artist has significantly improved their art as the manga goes on and a very interesting thing I've enjoyed on rereads is how the author has consistently brought back minor and even background characters as recurring side characters to engage with Tomoko and friends.
The biggest downside in my opinion is the release schedule. It can go from bi-weekly to monthly with less than 10 pages each release. Due to this, some arcs can drag out as some chapters will move the story forward or sometimes we get random tid-bits of character interactions. As of chapter 230, we've been in the same 'School Festival' arc for about 2 years! You know when this manga first released? 2013!
Regardless, if you can power through the boring cringe up to Vol 7, you'll find a fun slice-of-life manga to sink your teeth into with many characters and personalities to enjoy.

Full disclosure, I have played Fate/Grand Order the mobile game and am familiar with a lot of what the movie is adapting.
I have watched both FGO Camelot movies twice, once on my own and again with an "anime-only" friend and we both agree... what did we watch exactly?
With Babylonia, my friend could watch it, not knowing anything, and still get the gist and enjoy the series. He did not feel the same way about the Camelot movies. I, too, did not enjoy the Camelot movies as much as I thought I would've.
Like many people, I also felt like they should've did a 20-ish episode series
...
for Camelot the same way they did for Babylonia. They also chose to remove some characters and change some events to make up for those missing characters. The pacing is a lot tighter and faster-paced but not in a good way, I had a hard time understanding motivations of many characters on top of scenes simply happening then moving on, and my friend had so much trouble keeping up with what was happening or why it was happening.
The art goes from fantastic when things are slow to weirdly disproportionate human-ogres when any serious action scene goes on. It was extremely noticeable and contributed to the "WTF is even happening?" reaction that me and my friend had, especially near the end.
Music is great but because me and my friend were constantly going "WTF is even happening?". The music was often overshadowed by me trying to explain what was happening to my friend. Like the music wants you to feel what was happening was an epic emotional scene but, again, so much was happening so fast.
There were also some strange audio choices, both in the Japanese and English dub. Where people from off-screen would talk to another character on-screen at low volume to simulate them talking at a distance. Sometimes we didn't know who was talking at the time until the next scene.
To me, this did not reach my expectations that could've been at the same level of the Babylonia anime. I understand that adaptations can't adapt everything nor can they fit everything to the time constraints of a movie but they certainly tried to cram it all in in 2 movies.

This manga got axed early and it's obvious why.
"Do You Think You Can Run After Reincarnating, Nii-san?" starts off as your usual isekai but quickly reveals the circumstances of how the protagonist, Jack Lieber, ended up reincarnating by chapter 2. His little sister is a very violent yandere who has a thing for her brother (bit of a redundant explanation but necessary). They both die but are reincarnated in the same world.
The story starts off innocent enough in chapter 1 with minor hints about how Jack's previous life was but in chapter 2, that's where most of the "shock value" is revealed. It's bloody, violent,
...
and terrible but don't worry if you're squeamish about that sort of thing because that's about the worst of what's shown and it's not very overt so it's still pretty tame compared to other "dark" manga (as it's still part of a publishing manga).
However, by the end of chapter 3, Jack manages to put his crazy sister down and it's heavily implied (honestly outright said) that she'll be back. Which is where many people felt like the manga lost its "hook" as from that point on, the story becomes your standard battle shounen. Without the main draw of his insane sister being a constant threat hunting her brother down, the story just lost interest to a lot of people, including me. Even though the author sprinkled in obvious hints that his sister was back it just wasn't enough to keep the manga going as it was canceled only 20 chapters in.
If you're expecting a twisted/dark manga to get into, this won't do it for you. This is just a small "snack" among the numerous amounts of battle shounen and isekai mangas out there.
