My life is a thing of wonder.... Part 1!

 It has now been a very long time since I wrote anything. A lot has happened to get me to this point. My family has grown because we adopted someone. The adoption was one that isn't in the range of normal since the "child" we adopted is already an adult! Yes, that really is a thing! It's been emotional and amazing, but most of all it has been an adjustment for all of us.

            Our newest son has gone from being the youngest in his foster family to being the oldest in his permanent family, affectively making my eldest resign from being the role model for his sisters. The pressure is off!!! Hehe.

            For me, things haven’t been that great. My physical and mental health has gotten worse. It has made it impossible for me to keep up with anything! After reading that line you are probably asking “then how is it a thing of wonder?!?!?!” It’s the discoveries I have made as I went through this terrible time in my life that make it a thing of wonder.

            While my weight went down during my Keto diet to 188lbs, I found that when I started trying to incorporate the things I needed for nutrition that were restricted or removed during the diet, my weight went right back up and past where I started. I got really discouraged by this and ended up eating my feelings which only made things worse. I was devastated when my knee started having trouble holding me without pain. I knew something had to change if I wanted to stay out of a wheelchair. All this weight gain was getting to me both physically and mentally.

            During this time I turned to Minecraft to keep my mind off everything. Thanx to Draven at ONLYDRAVEN GAMING and Kernal At Kernal_Gaming I found communities I could fit in with! I ended up a moderator for both channels and that helped my mental health so much and I really can’t thank them enough for the safe and friendly places to spend my time. I have made a few friends in them that were absolutely vital in my reaching where I am now! So consider this a shout out guys!!!

            So after my emotions calmed down I started paying attention to what I ate and when I ate it but most of all what the effect of my eating was on my weight. It took me just over 6 weeks to figure out when I should eat specific things. By this I mean what time of day. Now I eat and I am actually starting to lose weight again! But the best part is that I think I am starting to truly understand my metabolism! You have no idea how important that is when trying to lose weight in a way it won’t come back to haunt you!!! I learned that the hard way!!!

Apology and explanations.... thanx for understanding

OK.... So this didn't work out as smoothly as I had planned!

Basically I was supposed to be able to have the reviews done on time this year... and instead I have missed more that 4 weeks in a row but I promise I didn't do it on purpose! DNR Imagry is taking off like a rocket ship and I have been so caught up in launching it with a friend that I have neglected most of my other projects. I can only say one thing to this...

I'm So Sorry!

Right now I may not be able to do the posts on an actual schedule. I'm really going to try though. I have a major project going right now though so I think I might be absent for a bit. Again I'm very sorry!!!

Wait... Have I even told you all about this whole thing? Probably not now that I think about it. So here is what happened. When I was building my computer I had to make a business account on the site I was getting the parts from. I named it DNR Imagry since I am an artist and it just fit. well that's all well and good but when I was talking to a friend he asked to see some of my art and the next thing I knew I was his corporations commissioned graphics artist! I make their business cards, company logos, and letterheads and when they start setting up any websites I will be in charge of the art for the sites.

Yeah I know... That's a huge deal, and because of that I have had a hard time with all the blog posts. Now that you all know what has been going on I want to say I will try my best to get posts out but IDK how often I will be able to pull it off at the moment. I am just one artist to my company I didn't know I was truly starting and I am already working for 10-15 hours in a day sometimes. IT'S CRAZY!

So again I am so sorry.. Thanx for understanding me and spending the time to read this post!

Hope you have a wonderful time until I write again!

Spotlight Review Wednesday: Manga 1~20~2021 & an announcement!

My Dear Maid

Manga

Synopsis

This one will have no images or links and very little content...

Warning Hentai!

There was no synopsis available even when I found the MyAnimeList page.

My review!!!

The Manga can be read here...

Mangapark

As I reviewed this I had to keep this mind...

ART: 3 pts.

STORY: 3 pts.

SEQUEL:2 pts.

QUESTIONS: 2 pts.

The art was lewd but very well drawn. I can't figure out what storyline their might be other than finding ways to fuck the maid or other girls. No I can't see a sequel at all and the questions I have all boil down to one... why? With all this in mind it got a very low score. Here it is...

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Read" rating I give this...

3

The only reason it even managed a 3 was the art. Though it was lewd it was beautifully done. This is not one I recommend unless you are looking for something to masturbate to.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now that this is out of the way I will let you know a few things I am hoping to do in the coming months. I want to start doing more of the old posts I used to do... Maybe point you in the direction of YouTubers who I find interesting or music I like. I am not going to have set topics on set days like I used to though. I found that it became more like a chore than a joy to write those days.

I don't want that to happen again!

So in order to stop me from getting into a robotic mode again I am going to leave it sporadic. I really hope everyone that reads my blog is happy with the random posts I will be putting out!

I'm also in the process of designing my business card. Not for the posts I do here but for the art I do. I am currently doing business cards, letterheads, and logos for people. If you are interesting in seeing if my style fits your needs then please e-mail me at D.N.R. Imagry. I am picky about taking jobs on. Not in the way people think of first though. I won't take on more than one job at a time since I like to give my client and job my full attention. Also if I think I can't do what it is you want I am up front and will tell you. I don't like wasting peoples time!

With that I think I've told you all the big news I have. At some point this year I hope to restart my YouTube posts as well. I'll let you know what that is nearing. With that last bit I am finally done this post! Time to scrub my eyes lol.

As always... Thanx for reading my review!

Hope you have a fun day!!!

Synopsis

With dead and lifeless eyes, Rachel Gardner wishes only to die. Waking up in the basement of a building, she has no idea how or why she's there. She stumbles across a bandaged murderer named Zack, who is trying to escape. After promising to kill her as soon as he is free, Rachel and Zack set out to ascend through the building floor by floor until they escape.

However, as they progress upward, they meet more twisted people, and all of them seem familiar with Rachel. What is her connection to the building, and why was she placed in it? Facing a new boss on each floor, can Rachel and Zack both achieve their wishes?

My review!!!

The Anime can be watched here...

FUNimation:Angels of Death

Crunchyroll: Angels of Death

Let me be the first to say this one threw me for a loop! There were a lot of factors in that... One of the bigger ones was the fact that this is one of the rare anime I have found to have it in Russian! One of my children is learning Russian so it was nice to be able to watch something good and give him practice all at once!

As I reviewed this I had to keep my scoring in mind.

ART: 3 pts.

STORY: 3 pts.

SEQUEL:2 pts.

QUESTIONS: 2 pts.

With this in mind lets talk about the anime!

The artwork, or in this case animation, was done beautifully! nothing seemed out of place and the few times I paused it I could tell a lot of work went into it. Sometimes you will pause and think "Oh my, they did not mean for me to see this frame!" or something along those lines. This is because the animators skipped drawing in things that will only go by in a flash. This is normal but some of them are not just missing things like eyes or smiles. Sometimes you find odd shaped bodies/objects and since they too go by in a flash it is normally ok that they do this. In this anime I paused randomly a few times and nothing was too out of place! I may have missed some because I didn't go frame by frame but the average person doesn't do that anyhow. Because I couldn't find any big mistakes when I paused I say this gets full art marks!

The story was both simple and complex. This isn't an easy thing to manage smoothly so I was happy they had done such a great job! The part that grabbed me the most was when the main characters meet and she asks him to please kill her! I was not expecting that!! Full marks here too!

Now it's sequel... This one is always hard to answer since I only have to read or watch 5 chapters or episodes. It's hard to tell in the beginning if it has potential for a second season but some just scream "I might have more coming!" at you. Then there are those that you just can't stop watching or can't put down and they end on a cliffhanger! I love/hate those lol. This was one of those... Before I knew it I was at the end of the show. It has potential for another season and I really hope they make one! Full points!

Now for questions.... I did have a few at the end but that was part of what made it a good sequel opportunity in the first place! Having a few questions is ok but being left baffled is a bad thing... This one answered just enough to keep you wondering but not enough to make you hate the ending. Full points here too!

So now the final score!

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Watch" rating I give this...

With this breakdown I hope you will find the review a bit more helpful without giving anything away. Sometimes I may add images or talk about characters a bit but I am still getting used to the new set up. I know I pretty much just talked tech in this review and I am sorry if that isn't what you wanted. I'm still trying to figure out how much and where to put the details of the anime or manga. Most likely it will be in story with a dash here and there in other parts. Only time will tell. In the meantime I hope this review made you a little curious!

Go check it out... It's soooo worth it!

As always... Thanx for reading my review!

Hope you have a great day!!!
