This week we will have presentations by:
  • Lauren Antoine: I want to discuss how a particular sub gene of Shonen that has been really popular as of late is the theme "teleported from another world" This means the main character was a nerd of some sort, or an extreme introvert and has no social life outside of his computer or interest of sort.  the anime I wish to focus on in particular is Overlord which only had one season for a few years before season two and three launched in 2017 and 2018.
I would like the class to either read or watch theses two titles "The Rising of the Shield Hero" and "Fushigi Yuugi" I'll place the link to the manga and anime below. My presentation is on the "Growth of Isekai, where it was, where it is, and what to expect."

Manga:
The Rising of the Shield hero
Fushigi Yuugi

Anime:

  • Dana Lee: I will be covering the anime, Made in Abyss. There is no category on the list that fits perfectly with this anime as it is considered to be Dark Fantasy and Sci-Fi. The anime has some controversial themes that I feel are worth discussing with the class, and it also has a unique story line to go alongside it.  
  • Toni Strow: Psychopass
