Lost Lad London and the Manga Murder Mystery

Posted on July 18, 2023July 14, 2023 by Irina

I saw a video essay analyzing poetry not too long ago and the lovely commentator warned that too much alliteration can make your writing seem amateurish. I took that as a challenge! So yes, this post is going to be a brief review of Lost Lad London but I also wanted to take the opportunity…

Monster – Manga Review

Posted on June 17, 2023June 12, 2023 by Irina

I have mentioned it here and there but I don’t blame you if you don’t know that I am a pretty big fan of Urasawa. I just really love this man’s writing style. Or at least I love his translators’ writing style. Did you know that he has a YouTube channel? Crazy Right!

ZOM 100 – Manga First Impression

Posted on March 6, 2023February 10, 2023 by Irina

ZOM 100 was kind of a wild ride but I think that’s exactly what it wanted to be! Ok so on a whim a few months ago I decided to just buy a bunch of volume 1 manga that I didn’t know anything about and figured if I found something I liked I would continue…

Utsubora Manga Review

Posted on February 27, 2023February 10, 2023 by Irina

I’ve been collecting manga for a little while now and I do enjoy it a lot. In an effort to branch out and maybe discover something I wouldn’t have otherwise, I asked for manga suggestions on Twitter and got a bunch back. It’s how I discovered Blank Canvas which I really dig. Among the people…

Nyankees – Manga First Impression

Posted on February 20, 2023February 10, 2023 by Irina

I love the cover of this book! Also “Nyankees” is a great title! Ok so on a whim a few months ago I decided to just buy a bunch of volume 1 manga that I didn’t know anything about and figured if I found something I liked I would continue it. This has backfired horribly….

Dead Dead Demon’s DeDeDeDe Destruction – Manga first impression

Posted on February 13, 2023February 10, 2023 by Irina

So lately I’ve been ordering a lot of manga. I’m in the mood to discover my next big manga love story. I’ve also not been reading as much webcomics. At least not family-friendly ones. As such, I figured I would switch my webtoon recommendations for manga first impressions until I build up a nice stock…

The Solitary Castle in the Mirror – Manga First Impression

Posted on February 6, 2023January 27, 2023 by Irina

Once you decide that fan translations are ok, it’s difficult to stop. Yup, The Solitary Castle in the Mirror is another manga that hasn’t quite been officially licensed yet. It’s actually based on a novel that might have an official translation. I’m afraid I didn’t do my homework there. The original title is Kagami no…

Majo to Neko no Hanashi – Manga Review

Posted on January 9, 2023December 28, 2022 by Irina

Sorry about putting this here guys. There’s this new site that has been stealing all my content (and content from a lot of other great bloggers) called Anime Sensai. They really suck. But I figure I might as well use the opportunity for some advertising. So if you actually came across this post on Anime…

Ristorante Paradiso – Manga Review

Posted on December 19, 2022December 5, 2022 by Irina

A little while ago, I found that I was quite fond of the works of Natsume Ono. Her style has this laissez-faire attitude that invites the reader to read between the lines and relies just as much on the characters’ attitudes to tell the story as their words or actions. It’s not for everyone. I…

Box of Light Manga review

Posted on December 12, 2022December 5, 2022 by Irina

Box of Light is a short 2 volume manga series that is a nice little respite from the ordinary. It’s one of those titles that I think I enjoyed more than the average reader, but I think you might enjoy it too.

Shinozaki-kun no Mente Jijou – Manga First Impression

Posted on December 5, 2022November 27, 2022 by Irina

Shinozaki-kun no Mente Jijou or The Everyday Maintenance of Shinozaki-kun is my latest random manga discovery and I am really digging it. There is a genre called High Fantasy and I’ll be completely honest with you, I never looked up the actual definition. It gets associated with Tolkien a lot, so I always just assumed…

Pâtissier & Mademoiselle – Webmanga Review

Posted on November 14, 2022November 3, 2022 by Irina

You might be able to tell from the title of this webcomic that I am still reading food-based manga. What can I say, I seem to have a niche. Also, I titled Pâtissier & Mademoiselle as a web manga because it’s a manga in the sense that this is a Japanese comic but it was first…

6 Horror Manga to Read this Halloween

Posted on October 28, 2022October 28, 2022 by Irina

Generally, I will always prefer anime to manga. There are exceptions of course. And one of those exceptions is horror. This is not to say that there aren’t good horror anime but I find that horror for me works better on the page than on the screen. Part of it is that my own imagination…
