I wasn’t going to write a review about Yagi the bookstore goat. Cause I’m a bit of a noob. I’ll tell you about it in a second. But I think it’s a generally sweet little manga and when I went looking for reviews of it, not on sales sites or aggregators, I couldn’t find anything……

Migi and Dali – Manga Review
Depending on the translation it’s either Migi and Dali or Migi and Dari. I like the name Dali better so that’s what I’m sticking with. Some of you might have heard that this manga is going to have an anime adaptation so if you’re curious about my thoughts on that, I’ll let you know towards…
No Matter What You Say Furi-San is Scary – Manga First Impression
I’m going through some sort of identity crisis at the moment. The moment is probably 3 months ago. I have quite a lot of posts prescheduled at the moment. First, a whole bunch of series of animes have made me realize that I no longer have a tendency to dislike little kid characters. Quite the…
The Country Without Humans – Manga First Impression
You know, I’m a fan of Iwatobineko‘s imagery. Not necessarily the art style in itself, although it’s quite nice as well, no complaints, but the composition. The elements that are brought together and how they fit into the image. Granted, I have only seen two covers by Iwatobineko but I really liked both of them!
Dragon in the Kitchen – Manga review
I’m on one of those manga sprees. I usually read either longer manga series or novels that take me a bit longer to finish then I mix in a spree on shorter manga and first volumes I’m intrigued by. And well, I am currently going through a lot of manga and they all seem like…
Double – Manga First Impression
I had pretty high hopes when ordering this first volume of Double. The story struck me as unusual. It’s this genre that is a little like Sports! in that the main focus is about practicing and perfecting a skill but there are no actual sports in it. The only other example that comes to mind…
Manga Influencers and Hoarding Culture
“Does Anyone Else Feel Like Buying Manga Every Day?” That’s the tweet that greeted me today when I opened my phone. For the record, the answer is “yes”. I do want to buy manga. I pretty much always want to buy manga even though I haven’t finished reading all the volumes physically in my house….
Iwakutsuki Bukken no Yakuro-san Manga Review
I believe the English title is Living with Yakuro-san so that’s what I’m going to go with. Generally speaking, I’m more of an anime girl. If you look at my average rankings for anime vs my average rankings for manga, the score is significantly higher. Surprisingly, most people whose profiles I have seen also rate…
Hiru to Yoru no Oishii Jikan- A Surprisingly Frank Look at Anorexia
I wasn’t going to review Hiru to Yoru no Oishii Jikan. I read a lot of manga and I don’t review most of it. I haven’t even reviewed all the big CLAMP titles yet and I have binge through most of them in the past year or so. But for some reason, I just couldn’t…
Yuureitou Manga Review
I’m back to writing on a bus. We’ll see how it goes! Just took me 15 seconds to add that exclamation point so that’s a good start! I read the digital version of Yuureitou. It’s definitely one of the longest manga I’ve read digitally and I must say, I enjoyed the experience. I’m very glad…
How Do You Choose New Manga to Read
Over the past few years, I’ve been expanding my manga library. Both physical and virtual. And although I have never even been close to running out of things to read, I do often find myself actively looking for the next manga I want to try. Like a lot of people, I will go by word…
The World of Machida-kun – Manga Review
I was really looking forward to reading The World of Machida-kun. I can’t quite explain why. You know when you first see someone at school or at work. And you think to yourself, I bet I would really get along with that person. We should be friends. And you don’t really have a reason to…
Do You Read One Shot Manga?
I don’t even know if all of you are familiar with one shot manga, to begin with. They aren’t all that common in traditionally printed manga but you run across them a lot in digital manga. So let’s start with a little description One shot manga or at least what I call one shot manga)…
Hirayasumi – Manga First Impression
A while ago, I went on a manga aggregator website and decided to look up all the manga with the tag “food” for reasons that are still unclear to me. I was in the mood for stories about cooking and eating together. Maybe I was just hungry at the time After which, I scanned through…
Kuu Intrudes From Above – Manga Review
Sometimes, I’ll decide that I really want to read a manga and even I don’t know why. I should let you know that Kuu Intrudes From Above is not officially licensed yet so this is a preemptive review. That way if you see it pop up in the future, you’ll know what to expect. Kinda……
