Assassination Classroom, Volume 2 by Yusei Matsuji
Alrighty, add this to my list of manga that I'm throwing in the dustbin. The premise was interesting enough: an alien promises to end the world in a set amount of time, but will teach the reject class (and let them attempt to assassinate him) in the meantime. However, what the Reese's Pieces fuck … [Read more]
Chainsaw Man, Vol. 12 by Tatsuki Fujimoto
I saw on Viz that new chapters had been releasing and looked into when a new volume was due out. Turns out Volume 12 was already released. Where? Hell if I know. I couldn't find it.

One-Punch Man, Vol. 3 by One
Yup, I think I'm abandoning this series. I had been hoping there would come a point when things would click and it'd become something more.

I am so glad to have made the decision to throw my reading plans out the window and reread Gideon the Ninth and Harrow the Ninth before reading Nona the Ninth. Having everything … [Read more]

One of the few things I miss, having cut ties with Facebook and the things they own, such as Instagram, is Catana Comics. So, when I saw this on the shelf at Target, I straight up threw it in my cart. For me, the Holy Trinity of long-running comics is probably Peanuts, Sarah Scribbles, and Catana. … [Read more]
Fangirl, Vol. 1: The Manga by Sam Maggs
Look, I love Rainbow Rowell, I love Fangirl, and I love comics. How, then, could Fangirl, the manga, not be a homerun for me? I think my gripes begin and end with the art style. I could rant about how this isn't manga, seeing as manga literally means a Japanese comic book, but plenty of people have … [Read more]
