  • Moon Archive 84: Room of the April Witch and Koha-Ace
    Jul 6 2024

    In Which Two Girls Lean Heavily On The Yuri Teatime Segment

    We have a couple small things this week to give us a break before the impending Mahoyo. First up: Room of the April Witch, a one off standalone short story. Second: Koha-Ace, a one volume meta gag manga that nominally stars Kohaku. It’s a bit of a light episode.

    Next time, we’ll be covering the Melty Blood X manga, as well as the visual novel Malcatras’ Maiden. We’ll also be covering from the bottom of my heart as part of the al|together Jam.

    Featuring co-hosts Benn Ends (@bennends) and fen (@fenic_fox).

    The tidal pressure of the digital see draws us ever deeper… This time we’re covering Fate/EXTRA weeks 4-5, both the Rin and Rani route. They’re uh, not as divergent as you might hope.

    Next time, we’ll be covering the end of EXTRA. Send questions! For Yuri Teatime we’ll be covering the full run of Blue Reflection Ray, the anime sequel to the jrpg Blue Reflection. On top of that we have The World To Reverse (both hallucinate and Flanca) as part of the Al|together jam.

    May 11 2024

    A new journey begins! The digital sea is here! This time we’re covering the beginning of Fate/EXTRA. That’s the prologue and weeks 1-3. In fact, keep playing right up to the route split (you’ll know it when you see it.)

    Next time, we’ll be covering weeks 4 and 5 of EXTRA. We’ll be discussing both routes at once! For Yuri Teatime we’ll be covering Persona 3 Portable playing as the girl protag, naturally. On top of that we have Summer, Circadas, and the Girl as part of the Al|together jam.

  • Moon Archive 79: All Around Type Moon
    Apr 27 2024

    Today we’re covering a manga based on a drama CD based on the idea of some silly cross-timeline shenanigans between the cast of KNK, Fate/stay night, and Tsukihime. It’s a light read, so for most of the episode fen and Benn just argue about Otherside Picnic.

    Next time, we’ll be covering the first 3 weeks of the 2010 RPG, Fate/EXTRA! Well, we’re technically be covering right up to the route split; keep playing after the end of the week 3 fight and you’ll know it when you see it. For Yuri Teatime the 1979 film Stalker. We’ll also be covering Shooting Star Hill as part of the Al|together jam.

    we watched too much anime for this one! come for the textureless late 2000s anime sludge, but stay for the funny and frank drama about dorky teens grappling with sexuality.

    next time, we’ll be covering the entirety of the all-around type-moon manga. for yuri teatime we’ll be covering the first two novels of otherside picnic (just the first omnibus if you have that). we’ll also be covering night of forget-me-nots as part of the al|together jam.
