Azur lane - Honor, Loyalty and Anthropomorphic Ship Girls

Azur Lane is a side-scrolling shoot 'em up video game created by Chinese developers Shanghai Manjuu and Xiamen Yongshi. The game was released in 2017 for the iOS and Android. First launched in China in May and in Japan in September 2017.


The game is said to rank just below fate Stay and kancolle franchises. Im no fan of ship girls and I'd admit it took me a while to finally got around to playing the game. Also I know this is greatly compared to kancolle but for this review I won't be making any comparison to it since it feels like a disrespect to both franchises.

Geekatana Food Review - McDonalds Choco Pie

Well let us move on to the contender which is McDonald's who is also no stranger in the fast food pie making business. Most folks will remember McDonalds for its apple pie but it also has some raspberry, Strawberry and Custard and banana pies. But we are going to focus on their latest which is the Choco pie. A McDonalds pie that was first introduced in Japan and Korea.


First off unlike most McDonalds pies the crust is also made of chocolate which is new. The idea of having a chocolate crust brings out a more chocolate flavor in the pie which is good or bad depending on how much you love chocolates as this could overwhelm certain people. But for chocolate lovers this would be a much welcome treat.

Geekatana Food Review - Jollibee's Buko Pie


Im a big fan of Buko pie so when I found out Jollibee is having a Buko pie in their menu I knew I had to try it. Sadly due to my busy schedule it took me quite a while to get my hands on them. But hey better late than never I guess.


Sadly since I was also in a hurry I didn't get to take any decent pic for thi review so you folks will have to settle with the photos I can grab from the internet and from the Jollibee site. I don't own these pics they are just there for references. Anyways on with the quick review.

FRNK Milk Bar - First Authentic Japanese Milk Bar in the Philippines

FRNK is one of the latest Milk craze in the Metro. Yet unlike your typical milk tea shops FRNK offers healthier options and even offers customize drinks for the most picky drinkers. First in the Philippines to offer that authentic Japanese Milk Bar experience.


I've passed by their stores before during opening where they had a super long line but it wasn't until recently I managed to have enough free time to actually give it a go. And the results are rather surprising.

Xenosaga Episode 1 Der Wille zur Macht - the Kawaii Terminator

Xenosaga Episode 1 Der Wille zur Macht was a game developed by Monolith Soft and primarily published by Namco.  Originally created as a spiritual successor to the Square-produced Xenogears by Tetsuya Takahashi.  Der Wille zur Macht, was taken from the native title of The Will to Power, a posthumously-published collection of notes written by Friedrich Nietzsche.


Being a fan of Xenogears for the ps 1 I immediately got a copy of this game the moment it hit game shelves back in 2003. Xenosaga franchise was originally planned to be a 6 part episode game series with each Episode focusing on one or two of its main characters.
