EX VITA manga [REVIEW] | Ghost In The Shiny Metal Ass

I’ll admit, there is something sadistic about going back before the Crunchyroll Original anime adaptation of a frankly mediocre GITS rip-off made sure EX-ARM was a name known for all the worst reasons.

Yet, curiously while searching for more used volumes of the EX-ARM manga, i realized there was actually a previous iteration, written and illustrated by Shinya Komi alone this time (so writer HiRock wasn’t involved yet), simply called EX-VITA.

Yeah, eventually (roughly 2-3 years later) they remade EX-VITA as EX-ARM, which ran for Shueisha’s Grand Jump and Shonen Jump from early-2015 till mid-2019, and eventually ended, rereleased then over 14 volumes/tankobons.

I do wanna eventually cover that, but i figured we took a look at EX-VITA first, also to celebrate the new Ghost In The Shell anime launching on Amazon Video… well, yesterday (or today, in some regions)!

It’s gonna be a relatively quick review since this original iteration of the concept ran for just 2 volumes.

Yuru Camp/Laid Back Camp (Season Three) (2024) [REVIEW] | Encouragement Of Camping

Since i’ve promised we would correct the lack of newer Yuru Camp/Laid Back Camp content on the site, here is the promised review of the anime third season.

I won’t be covering the mobile game, Yuru Camp Together/All For One, despite planning to do so, not this time, maybe next year, it’s such a clunky pile of gacha ass (not that kind of gacha ass) that i struggled to even bother with it, even putting aside its performance issues.

That will get a full review, eventually, because it’s awful, but for now i will review the last season of the Yuru Camp anime, after giving some first impressions some time ago.

Might as well, since Season 4 has been announced back in November 2024, 1 year ago, so it’s confirmed (with a picture drawn for the occasion by the author of the Yuru Camp manga, Afro) but we still don’t know anything else besides it will eventually exist.

… this is where i would say some updates on that dribbled down between me starting this review and the day of posting, but nope, still nothing about it besides “is in the works”.
