INSiGHT: NEO Magazine: Issue 189 (Review)

With a new month comes a new issue of NEO Magazine, this time around going for a large focus on the summer, and juicy media to consume during the season. Not only that, but there's an in-depth look at the controversial ending to Game of Thrones, the parallels between it and certain Anime shows, and eight of the latter recommended to watch for that medieval fantasy and/or mind-games fix, including favourites Death Note and Attack on Titan. 

Role-Playing Game fans will be well fed this issue, as there is a big bumper article spread on developers Idea Factory; makers of the Neptunia series, as a promotion and potential prize give-away of their newest title in said franchise; Super Neptunia RPG. Adding a little speed to the mix is a review for Team Sonic Racing, the latest title from Sumo Digital and out now for all formats. 

Fellow Feline lovers will likely enjoy Mahiru's article on Pet Cafes in certain parts of Tokyo, with friendly moggies accompanying a relaxing cuppa. Adorable Cats also adorn this month's Manga Extract pages, with Marc Sach's lovingly abstract Fuzzballs taking simplified animal designs and putting them in all kinds of awkward situations. 

Rounding off things are articles on the Ukai Fishermen; anglers that use an ancient form of casting to catch the rare and beloved Ayu trout. An interview with movie director Jesse V.Johnson on the latest generation of Martial Arts and action films, via the upcoming Triple Threat flick. Last but not least, are mouth-watering recipe ideas for eggs; a versatile ingredient, and a popular choice for Japanese dishes. NEO Magazine Issue 189 is available now from all good newsagents.
