The last time I read and reviewed this book was back in 2010, when my posts included spoiler-filled synopses that were as long or longer than the reviews themselves. I figured that a new review was in order, especially since my opinion of this book has improved. After Balsa, a female bodyguard, res...

So I thought this was going to be a short one, because, well, the book is pretty short, and I didn't think I had much to say about it. Then I started writing, and NGL, totally fangirling, but I don't even care, because this series is fucking awesome, y'all. While Moribito isn't perfect, it was a gen...
I really enjoyed this, and the translation was pretty good. I'm really sad that they aren't translating any more of these, except for 1 and 2, because I liked it.
