"Has anyone ever really been far even as Otaku Usa to go to Michael Goldstein to do look more edited ? "

No, I didn't check this post for the same issues I'm criticizing Michael Goldstein for. Go figure. But I'm not earning a salary, so... Eat my ass.

I found 3 bad typos in the same sentence in Michael Goldstein's article on Sakugan for Otaku USA ... Plus two [Edit. Way more than two.] others that appear to be autocorrect typos* ( Did he text this article to the editor? Jeez ). Also the phrase 'Monstrous herds of monsters' ... Lay off the cheeba when you're writing for publication , man. Isn't it incorrect also to say 'fits that bill to a T' . Its supposed to be 'to a tee' as in a tee marker , right ? I would normally let that one slide, with the other errors in this article , it looks bad.
Overall the actual information and composition is acceptable, but the writing is flawed enough to badly occlude it in places. I've seen this issue with this magazine before. Its not a big deal but its like 'Fuck, who edited this ? '. There's also some examples of word choice that is not incorrect grammar or autocorrect but which I think is still bad form. For example, the use of 'Of course' twice close together, and not for an intentional rhythm.

* 'Something' where it ought to be 'someone' and 'desired' where it seems like it ought to have been 'depicted'
** Plus the phrase ' even though he once had that some glimmer of youth in the past'
*** " I can't wait to see how down the rabbit hole goes " is the final phrase in the article.
