Hana-Kimi Omnibus Vols. 1-3 Review

Jan 7, 12:00 manga

The beloved shoujo manga still maintains its charm after thirty years, even if the narrative reveals a few old cracks here and there. ― Towards the end of Hana-Kimi's second volume, Hisaya Nakajo wrote that before Hana-Kimi's success, she never penned a story that went beyond six chapters. She might not have expected her manga to achieve such international popularity either, even as she hastily drew ...

Kaya-chan Isn't Scary Volumes 2-4 Manga Review

Jan 6, 12:00 manga

It’s not quite as good as its most obvious sibling, Mieruko-chan, but it’s still a fascinating take on the ghost story. ― When I reviewed the first volume of Yuritaro's Kaya-chan Isn't Scary manga for the Manga Guide, I said that it was basically Mieruko-chan but in kindergarten.

If the answer is “not tons,” consider picking up Temirana: The Lucky Princess and the Tragic Knights. It's not a short game by any means, ...

The kappa, the kitsune, the tanuki, the nopperabo…it'd be easy to assume that these and a few others make up the bulk...
