What I like about the Japanese manga industry is that if someone wants to write about an extremely niche field, they not only get to do so but those series can also be long-running.
Safe to say I don’t think the publishing industry anywhere else would greenlit those stories.

Reading websites splitting a chapter into multiple parts is evil af, especially if it’s coming from a big publisher (*cough* Kodansha) because they ruin the pacing of the series ON PURPOSE for capitalism.
The chapters having a certain number of pages is there for a reason.

If you like a competitive manga with a mostly female cast like Medalist or Girl Crush, I’ve been reading La Magnifique Grande Scène & really enjoying it. Kageki Shojo is high on my TBR too, I love manga that focus on sports & the arts.

I am a victim of sports manga because what’s the point of action shonen otherwise.
In other words I started reading Red Blue & so far it’s pretty intriguing. Mangaka used to be an assisstant on Kuroko & HQ.
I rarely see an MC with asthma, and his personality is uh, unique.

I read the first 2 chapters of Acting Out that just dropped yesterday on MangaPlus.
It’s about a baseball player for a powerhouse team quitting & his venture into theater, always fascinated by stories where a person good at something pursues something else instead.

I started this series & so far it’s piquing my interest. Only 2 chapters in but I love the concept, horror mermaids always a hit.

Just read the first chapter of Ceska of Blessing & I’M SAT.
I love the setting & her drive towards learning, just how kind & respectful she is towards other cultures in general.
Hoping there would be some romance cause they’re so cute, I ship them.

Finally received the other Medalist figures & they look so good for prizes, I’m impressed.
Idk what they were smoking tho when they made Tsukasa smaller scale-wise, look how small his face is compared to Hikaru 💀
Oh well, at least the girls match. Here’s how all 3 look together

Everyday there’s discourse about how BL/yuri fetishizes queer people but Idgaf because the series I’ve read was so good it rewired my braincells.
Sometimes all you need is to shut up & read because your first good series will blow these dumb takes away.

I think the negative generalizations of entire demographics & genres could be entirely avoided if you love reading more than talking.
People need to try new series with an open mind, and actually find series that suits their interests.

Why is everyone suddenly locking in for baseball lmao. I didn’t know so many people were baseball fans
And so sorry for fellow Canadians, but on the bright side baseball manga is never going out of fashion at this rate

One Piece is such an insane choice to be someone’s first manga imo, and it baffles me that so many people think it’s the perfect “beginner-friendly” series.
It’s 100+ volumes with no end in sight, in my mind it makes more sense for people to try a bunch of shorter series.

Happy Halloween!!! 🎃🦇☠️
It’s a bit late but here are my recommendations for series with the Halloween vibes but not the horrors for my people that can’t do gore.
They’re mostly kid-friendly series, the BL is non-explicit too

My one issue with female representation in fiction is how in the scope of things, there are pretty few stories by women, for women & about women where the female characters aren't in a relationship or how romance isn't a part of the narrative.

Ichinoi from BL Metamorphosis & Umiko from Umi ga Hashiru Endroll would be besties, one’s a fujoshi & the other has a daughter that writes BL.
I think they have a lot in common, both being widowed & moms with married daughters finding a passion for the arts later in life.

No let’s not talk about Yona ending, I couldn’t do anything at work today because of it.
But can we talk about how unserious it is that people are so mad about the special edition MDZS covers every.single.time they do a reveal when the covers are so pretty.

If I have a nickel for everytime a criminally-underrated BL with a gorgeous, haunting artstyle that perfectly captures the beauty of B&W art is named Stigmata, I’d have two nickels.
Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

I don’t rate things because I don’t believe in rating systems, but if you’re going to give something a score it shouldn’t be given in the heat of the moment right after you finished it.
I think a lot of people will change their rating if they had waited even just one day.

I feel like both official & unofficial TL sites are purposely not revealing their use of machine translations & AI.
There isn’t another explanation for how much I’ve seen characters being misgendered recently, unless they’re gender-ambiguous it’s impossible to mess up.
