Reader’s Corner: I Wanna Do Bad Things with You (Vol. 1), Bocchi the Rock! (Vol. 4), and The Hachioji Specialty: Tengu’s Love (Vol. 1)

The saying goes, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” We prove it every week here on Reader’s Corner, but rarely more so than in this edition, when we show beauty in tengu love; explain how a beautiful and admirable lead does not a good spin-off make; and explain how a provocative title and cover… Read More Reader’s Corner: I Wanna Do Bad Things with You (Vol. 1), Bocchi the Rock! (Vol. 4), and The Hachioji Specialty: Tengu’s Love (Vol. 1)

Reader’s Corner: You Can’t See Snow, Rainbow Days (Vol. 10), and The Perks of Being an S-Class Heroine (Vol. 1)

Check out our thoughts below, including those by Laura regarding a series now available in print that’s been… Read More Reader’s Corner: You Can’t See Snow, Rainbow Days (Vol. 10), and The Perks of Being an S-Class Heroine (Vol. 1)

Reader’s Corner: Kaiju No. 8 (Vol. 7), A Galaxy Next Door (Vol. 5), and The Summer Hikaru Died

While the charm and creativity of fantastic worlds and cool science fiction works may enthrall us, it’s rare to keep up with a series based on those elements alone. We need to care about the characters and be interested in their journeys. This week’s selections featured a number of manga and light novels that do… Read More Reader’s Corner: Kaiju No. 8 (Vol. 7), A Galaxy Next Door (Vol. 5), and The Summer Hikaru Died

Reader’s Corner: Bloody Sweet, A Reincarnated Witch Spells Doom, and Apparently, Disillusioned Adventurers Will Save the World

Bullying, betrayal, and bombing—devastating events personally and, in the case of the bombing in Hiroshima, nationally—form the backdrop of several of the volumes we’re reviewing this week. But not to fear, there’s lighthearted fare, too, and often within the very same works as the difficult topics. Read our reviews of these sometimes complicated works as… Read More Reader’s Corner: Bloody Sweet, A Reincarnated Witch Spells Doom, and Apparently, Disillusioned Adventurers Will Save the World

Reader’s Corner: The Art of Demon Slayer, Wandance (Vol. 4), and Apparently, Disillusioned Adventurers Will Save the World (Vol. 2)

The theme this week for Reader’s Corner is adventure, headlined by two new Demon Slayer works, anticipating the upcoming season (and theatrical screening of its first episode next month).

Dancing high schoolers and a new GL release round… Read More Reader’s Corner: The Art of Demon Slayer, Wandance (Vol. 4), and Apparently, Disillusioned Adventurers Will Save the World (Vol. 2)
