Moon Archive 55: Melty Blood Manga [Volumes 1-6]

Deja vu again, as we cover the first act of the Melty Blood manga, which is a pretty straight up and down adaptation of the Hologram Summer route of the original fighting game. But, mostly, we’re using this episode as an excuse to have a nice long yuri teatime about The Caligula Effect: Overdose, the somewhat maligned game preceding the excellent Caligula Effect 2.

Next time we’ll be covering the rest of the 2005 Melty Blood manga. For Yuri Teatime, we’ll be discussing The Caligula Effect: EPISODE Marie Mizuguchi ~The World Through Her Eyes~ (https://digi-lab.blog/the-caligula-effect-episode-marie-mizuguchi/)
