You can hardly find a studio the works of which are so thoughtful, kind, and intentional as Studio Ghibli. To stripmine that for its aesthetics, to take a piece of cardboard and paint it like food and say "See, doesn't this taste just as good?" is more than missing the point, it's barbaric […]

Great article featuring some amazing manga letterers! We still have a lot of work left to do as an industry to improve pay and working conditions for letterers and other localizers
Manga lettering, like composting in animation, is a job that's often overlooked despite its importance to translating a work of art. I spoke with some manga letterers about what the job entails and challenges the mostly freelance pool of typographers face.

Being a Manga Letterer Is More Than Having a Fun Job
Typesetting popular manga like Dandadan, Kaiju No. 8, and Gokurakugai can be crushing for its pool of mostly freelance workers.

There's a lot of snickering over Threads racing to copy BlueSky features, but I think it's mostly a good thing. Competition breeds innovation, and Threads is getting a lot better a lot faster now that BSky is hot on their heels
