Everyone is welcome to discuss and share ideas on what they’ve been reading this past week fortnight. This is where you can get suggestions for new manga while also exchanging thoughts with those reading the same series.
You can write a whole thesis or just a sentence. Ask for recommendations or give them. Comment about whatever you feel. The goal is to get users talking so the more the merrier. Just remember to be respectful because we’re all here to talk about what we love and have fun while doing so.
Finished Telework Yotabanashi. I read some of the other works by this author and this one is just as good. Art is great and the characters are enticing. Highly recommend this one.
Thanks for this recommendation, I binged the whole thing today. Gonna check out this author’s other works. Love this type if art style and story telling
I haven’t read telework yet, but I have read Sweat and Soap by the same author and highly recommend it. One of the rare adult romance stories in which the characters (mainly) act like adults and communicate rather than just high schoolers in an office setting.
Started reading Apothecary Diaries. It’s better and very different than what I expected. The setting is ancient China, in the imperial palace. The protagonist is an apothecary but the manga is only partially about medicine. The art is top notch. The stories are interesting. It’s a mix between drama, romcom, and mystery. Highly recommend to those who like any of those genres.
Finished Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku yesterday. Good thing is is that its still being published, sad thing is I have to wait for the next chapter to release (don’t know if it’s weekly, monthly, or bimonthly).
It’s a typical high school, Romeo and Juliette-esque romance story. Very lovey dovey. Very cute. Couldn’t stop myself from smiling while reading. A girl, Kaoruko, first befriends the MC, Rintaro. But both of them come from two different school which hate each other. So, they have to keep their friendship quiet from others. Their friendship and later romance would be challenged throughout the story. The story also covers the impact of the MC’s friends and family and how they have changed him for the better.
I recommend the manga for anyone into romance manga but want something more than just the romance between the two MCs.
just completed the official English translation of Kaguya-Sama: Love is War this morning… which to my despair, only goes up through Vol. 26 (out of 28)! so, um, if anyone knows of quality fan translations for the last two volumes… you’d make my day.
Witch Hat Atelier and I recently caught up to Heavenly Delusion after I finished the first season of the anime and couldn’t resist reading the manga
