Watashi's World

  As my first year in University is about to come to a close. I can honestly say I have learned a lot. Which is why I think this anime hit home for me.  A Non-Traditional Story Masaaki Yuasa's anime "The Tatami Galaxy," which is based on the novel by Tomihiko Morimi, has a distinctive and non-linear narrative structure.

Hello World! My name is Siphiwokuhle Ngema. I am an Search Engine Optimisation student currently attending the University of Johannesburg. I am also the chief editor for this blog. My birthday is on the 5th of October 2003 and I was born in the Boksburg suburb which is on the East side of Johannesburg. As an SEO student, I hope to learn the fundamental principles and techniques of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), including keyword research, on-page and off-page optimization, technical SEO, content creation, and analytics. Additionally, I aim to understand how SEO strategies can be applied to improve website visibility, rankings, and organic traffic, ultimately contributing to business growth and online success. I decided to make my blog about anime since I have been a fan of it since I was 8 years old. My first encounter with this art form began when I stumbled upon a Naruto video game based on the Naruto anime at my friend's house. The use of colours and the ominous looking villa...
