Okay I just finished Sakura-Hime. A really good read despite the fact that Tanemura really needed more space (and freedom) to do what she wanted with the series. If she'd been able to do what she wanted it'd be a stronger story but I still enjoyed it. Up next I'm reading Oresama Teacher

First Drop of the year. Genuinely there was just nothing I was interested in, the romance bored me, the premise bored me, the only interesting character was the psychic best friend and she was barely in it. Up next I'm reading Sakura Hime: the Legend of Princess Sakura.

Finished Drowning Love. 1000/10, a masterpiece really. The art was incredible, the character's were so masterfully written, the story was so beautifully crafted. It really is as good as everyone says it is. Wish I could collect it physically. Next I'm reading ReRe: Hello

This man has selective hearing. I love it when two people will basically say they’re in love with each other and they cannot hear each other say it.

I finished Mariunovich last night or at least as much of it as I could find and it was an okay high school romance, there are better ones out there. Up next I'm already 10 volumes into Guilty because I started it last night and I couldn't stop.

I cannot live through a repeat of this relationship. The most interesting thing you two did was break up. Honestly, it gets to a point where these teen romances just aggravate you as an adult.

Finished my first manga off of my 2025 TBR last night (rough start to 2025, but I'll push on), namida ame to serenade was an absolutely wonderful read. it's a sci-fi drama that just completely swept me away with it's art, story and characters.

Queen's Quality is a love letter to people, to humanity. To the best of us, to the worst of us. It is rare to read a manga written with this level of care, tenderness and compassion directed to all of us.
