ACCA: 13-Territory Inspection Department P.S. – Manga Review

Posted on May 2, 2022February 1, 2022 by Irina

Have you guys watched ACCA-13? I did, and I really liked it. So much so in fact that I went on to read the entire manga series. It was good as well but I missed the colours. I then discovered that Natsume Ono had written a short spin-off series called P.S. (or ACCA: 13-Territory Inspection…

Happy Kanako’s Killer Life – Manga First Impression

Posted on April 25, 2022January 21, 2022 by Irina

I remember reading about Happy Kanako’s Killer Life in a press release from Seven Seas and thinking it sounded like exactly the type of manga I would enjoy. I waited for it to actually come out for months and when it did, I ordered the first volume immediately. In the interim though, a few of…

Guest Post: Vagabond: probably Takehiko Inoue’s best work

Posted on April 22, 2022April 18, 2022 by Irina

(“The reason for portraying shadows is to depict light.”) –This is a story of redemption and self-redemption. Before writing this review of Vagabond, I gave it a lot of consideration. This piece is simply too unique. To be honest, this is the only manga review I’ve ever written that doesn’t have an over-the-top narrative or…

Gunji-sensei no Hisoka na Tanoshimi – One Shot

Posted on April 11, 2022April 11, 2022 by Irina

I don’t really review One Shots much. Mainly because I don’t get to read that many of them. Maybe I should seek them out more. One Shots are essentially manga short stories and I love short stories. I have to come clean. I read Gunji-sensei no Hisoka na Tanoshimi online and I’m not entirely sure…

Boys Run The Riot – Manga Review

Posted on March 21, 2022December 17, 2021 by Irina

I’ve managed to stack quite a few manga first impressions which have allowed me to hold out for full series reviews once in a while. Boys Run The Riot was a perfect candidate for that. It’s a relatively short series as it only has 4 volumes and the final one came out relatively recently. I…

The Masterful Cat is Depressed Again Today – Manga First Impression

Posted on March 14, 2022December 3, 2021 by Irina

I have noticed that there are a lot more manga about cats than about dogs. I have a feeling that Japan in general is more of a cat place. Not that they don’t have their share of notable and incredibly adorable dogs. It’s just that I mostly see manga and anime either about cats or…

The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting – Manga First Impression

Posted on February 28, 2022December 3, 2021 by Irina

As I write this, I have decided to buy a new tablet in an effort to convince myself to read more digital manga. Obviously, I bought the paper copy of the first volume of The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting. Baby steps folks! But I’m telling you I will make an effort to read more digitally….

Analog Drop – Manga Review

Posted on February 14, 2022September 3, 2021 by Irina

I am back with a full manga review. I’m not sure which I enjoy more. First impressions or full reviews. They each have their own charm. In this case, though, the full series is complete in two volumes so There’s no real point in just reviewing the first one. Or to be more accurate, I…

My Love Mix-Up! – Manga First Impression

Posted on February 7, 2022November 5, 2021 by Irina

There are a lot of alternative titles for this mang. My Love Mix-Up! is what’s on AniList and how you’ll find it at RightStuf. The original title is Kieta Hatsukoi. I’ve also seen it as Faded First Love and Vanishing My First Love, both of which sound way too dramatic for this story. In any…

Suiyou Kyoudai – Manga First Impression

Posted on January 31, 2022November 5, 2021 by Irina

If I had to summarize my experience with Suiyou Kyoudai (or Wednesday Siblings) in a single sentence it would be Suiyou Kyoudai is worth the cavities! Unfortunately, as far as I could find, this manga doesn’t yet have an official translation but I will be jumping on it the4 second it does. In the meantime,…

No. 5 – Manga First Impression

Posted on January 17, 2022October 22, 2021 by Irina

I really like science fiction and I don’t think I own any manga that qualifies as that. I guess Dark Dai is a comedy, horror, science fiction but that’s as close as it gets for me. I was hoping that No.5 would open up a whole new genre to explore. I guess I could always…

Mujirushi – Manga Review

Posted on January 10, 2022October 1, 2021 by Irina

I remember trying to read Naoki Urasawa’s 20th Century Boys years ago and not really getting into it. I didn’t think it was bad or anything, just not for me. I even said as much to a few of my fellow bloggers. Well, am I ever ready to eat my words. I decided to give…

Utsubora Manga Review

Posted on January 3, 2022October 1, 2021 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…

Merry Unbalance Christmas – Manga Review

Posted on December 20, 2021October 5, 2021 by Irina

Does it still count as a manga if it’s a one-shot? Merry Unbalance Christmas is basically a very short story in manga form. The entire thing is just one chapter so if you were looking for a short little Christmas manga, that you can just finish while waiting for the goose to cook… I don’t…

The Solitary Castle in the Mirror – Manga First Impression

Posted on November 15, 2021August 13, 2021 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…
