Who didn't want to be listed at number 13? Laughing

If the whole reason behind not letting the magazine publish the name is the superstition associated with number 13, then what a sad world it is.

If it's indeed the reason, I find it weird. Isn't unlucky 13 more a foreign thing? Don't Japanese (and East Asians in general) have their own unlucky number... 4? Confused

I wish ANN had more summaries available for the titles not yet licensed in the US. I’m so curious.

Dandadan is fantastic. It’s off-the-wall action with (dark) humor and a good dollop of heart. Fans of Chainsaw Man and Dorohedoro should check it out! I hope Viz publishes it in print soon! (And makes it available on their mobile app. It’s available on their browser reader and Shueisha’s Manga + app has the first 3 and latest 3 chapters available on their mobile app, but for some reason Viz thinks it’s too hot for iOS? I don’t get it.)

Have you tried Manga Plus? I don't know if it's available in the US or IOS, though.

Do you mean in the encyclopedia, or in the articles ?

Love to see Oshi no Ko rank.

Doesn't look there's any overlap this year, unfortunate.
