Teasing Master Takagi-san the Movie and a New Story

I just watched the Teasing Master Takagi-san movie, and it was very cute. Anyone who has seen the anime series would know that it is a sugary sweet, cute and wholesome show, and this movie is no exception. It is kind of amazing that someone can create new scenarios with pretty much the same premise, but there has been an evolution with this series going from just teasing to something of a middle school romantic comedy. Teasing Master Takagi-san is pretty much the progenitor of the “teasing” genre that has popped up in anime and manga as of late with many new series coming out with their own twists on this particular genre.

Speaking of twists on a particular genre, I am now starting to write my own “isekai” story. For those that do not know, “isekai” is a Japanese genre of portal fantasy and science fiction. In the U.S., we have seen this genre with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe or the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon. While most go the route of transporting to some sort of medieval fantasy setting, I am not going the medieval route but instead going with science fiction. It has been a lot of fun brainstorming and putting new ideas out there.

I have to admit that I have been enjoying just writing a lot more recently. Part of it is because I have officially finished The Mustard Prince in the Condiment Kingdom, and the result of constant editing and whatnot has made it a great story. With a new story being written, it has really made writing fun, for now. I know how this story goes, and while it is fun now, a grind is yet to come.
