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…
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…
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…
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…
This particular story has a bit of a tragedy attached to it. I was warmly recommended Blank Canvas on Twitter and I picked it up without much more than a glance at the summary. When I got it, I found out that it was from the author of Princess Jellyfish and it opened up a…

I remember I had Mashle in my bag, ready for me to read on my way home or when waiting for the friend I was grabbing dinner with when I came across a review for it from one of my fellow bloggers. It was kind of fun. I actually mumbled at my computer, hey, I…
Yup, I’m slowly peppering some webtoons back in. I’m still having a really tough time weening myself off of physical manga. The thing is, I really enjoy webtoons while I’m reading them. Some truly fantastic series are digital-only, or at least digital first. But then I see a fancy bookshelf stacked with shiny colourful manga…
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…
I’m really starting to rack up these manga first impressions. They are much easier to put together since reading a volume of the manga is way quicker than watching an entire season of anime. I might start doubling up on them on Mondays. They almost feel like episode reviews and I love reading new manga….
Well, this was quite the little ride. Another horror manga too. Maybe I should post about Versailles of the dead during my countdown to Halloween. I already have all my posts written up for October but I could squeeze one more. This is going to be quite the countdown! Maybe it’s just me but I…
I really like Q Hayashida. Admittedly I’ve only really seen/read two of her works but I clicked with both of them. I guess this is sort of a spoiler about what my first impression of Dai Dark was. I’m sorry, I’m probably going to make a whole bunch of comparisons to Dorohedoro. I can’t help…
It’s been a while so I figured for Halloween, I’d suggest some nice spoopy webtoons for you all. There are in fact quite a few amazing Horror webtoons out there and most of them are super popular. I figure most of you have heard of them already. So I decided to pick something a bit…
Ok, so I broke down and started reading a fan-translated version of this manga. In my defence, I guarantee that I will buy a physical copy as soon as it comes out in English. I tried to get volume 1 in Japanese from Amazon Japan but they were sold out. This is one popular manga….
I’ve been having bad luck with my Yuri Lately. I started watching Maria Watches Over Us but it wasn’t for me and I dropped it quickly. Yuri is My Job was a really cute manga but it got too repetitive and by volume 5 my interest sort of wane. Days of Love at Seagull Villa…
