Hey, you can call me Alvis. Welcome to my little corner of the internet!
I created this website to motivate myself to tackle my ever-growing backlog, which has become a hydra monster after years of neglect while I focused on my PhD and career. I miss the old internet, where everyone had their own quirky space to share their hobbies and thoughts. It is all about being the change you want to see, right?
I am an avid physical collector, with a focus on manga, anime, video games, figures, and more. As of 2025, I’ve accumulated about 1,000 video games and 1,600 manga comics—quite the haul. I appreciate a well-made physical release of my favourite art so that I can admire it in the best possible quality. Alongside sharing my thoughts on the themes and topics of selected media, I hope to showcase the physical aspects of their releases.
Being bilingual in Polish and English, I’m still deciding which language this blog will primarily use—one or both? We’ll see.
As the chief Rotten Girl™, I consume BL/yaoi/fanfiction/LGBT+ media en masse. I’m passionate about online fandom culture, which I’ve been a part of for more than half my life. In the past, I led one of the biggest Polish manga scanlation groups for 10 years.
I currently reside in Scotland with my two cats, Lucius and Ferdinand.
Here are some of my favourites:
- Musicians: Placebo, Veela, the GazettE, Dir En Grey, BUCK-TICK
- Anime: Serial Experiments Lain, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Mononoke, Ergo Proxy, Last Exile, Fullmetal Alchemist
- Manga: Berserk, Monster, Death Note, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure
- Games: Devil May Cry, Shin Megami Tensei, Nier, Xenoblade Chronicles, Final Fantasy
- Movies: American Mary, Skyfall, Inception
- TV Series: Hannibal, Mr. Robot, Twin Peaks, Peaky Blinders
I hope you enjoy this blog and what it offers.
