OH NO THE ONE PIECE LIVE ACTION IS FUN
#one piece#I never even got into the anime or manga#I think I watched the first couple of dub episodes back in the day on CN when they debuted#and I think I read the first volume of the manga#I DON'T HAVE TIME TO BE INTO SOMETHING ELSE#it's so goofy but the production value is really good#why are there are so many close ups#netflix why do you love closeups so much#it's like the first PotC#it's got the vibes#Koby is cute#I do not remember Koby

[image description: 9 slides from a slideshow. The slideshow has a white background with black text in comic sans. Each slide is as follows.
Slide One: Witch Hat Atelier, by a little witch academia fan (sorry in advance)
Slide Two: Basic Overview
NOT to be confused with Little Witch Academia
yes, they both have a cheerful bad-at-magic lesbian who is in love with a grumpy magic prodigy lesbian (...i think) and yes, the uniform features cute little hats and robes and yes they are at a magic school and yes the two main teachers have homoerotic tension and…huh.
Just don’t call it witch hat academia (<-has done that)
Next to the words is the cover for the first volume of Witch Hat Atelier, which shows a blonde girl, Coco, cheerfully jumping down.
Slide Three: Blonde Akko Kagari
She’s blonde
Her name is Coco
Very sweet looking like i bet she’s just the nicest
Probably had something tragic happen to her i bet it’s qifrey’s fault
Oh my god maybe this IS little witch academia
Next to the text is the cover for the first volume of Witch Hat Atelier.
Slide Four: Not Olruggio
Lesbian (my mutuals told me so) (okay actually one of them had Agott over a lesbian flag as their profile but that’s basically the same thing)
I did confuse her with Olruggio wha but no, she is a lesbian and her name is Agott.
Rhymes with fa-i am forcibly removed from the room.
I just know she’s emo as hell like she looks like everything thirteen year old me would LOVE. unfortunately I am in my twenties.
See next slide for blorbo.
Next to the text is the cover for the second volume of Witch Hat Atelier, which shows Agott sitting in a chair and staring out with a bored expression on her face.
Slide Five: Richeh!!!!!!!!
Blorbo-in-law
I mean, she’s gonna be my blorbo now.
Look at her i love her she can do no wrong.
Her eyebrows are my fave thing about her like they are so expressive
Next to the text are two manga panels of Richeh, one showing her eating noodles from a bowl, and one showing her cheering with her arms raised. Text behind her says, "Riche is sold out!" Next to these panels is the cover for the fourth volume of Witch Hat Atelier, which shows Richeh sitting on the side of a cliff.
Slide Six: The little pink one
She’s…pink
I hate to say it but i do not know anything about her
Not even her name
Sorry to all fans of the little pink one
I bet she’s the energetic/upbeat one of the group though
Next to the text is the cover for the fifth volume of Witch Hat Atelier, which shows a pink-haired girl leaping gleefully into the air.
Slide Seven: Qifrey without a U
It’s QI-FREY. No u.
Now why is he wearing a one-lens sunglasses. Sun monocle.
It’s probably just the cover art sorry Shirahama
Gay and sad i just know it
Honestly i got nothing on this man
Next to the text is the cover for the third volume of Witch Hat Atelier, which shows Qifrey holding a book in one hand. One of the lenses on his glasses has been darkened.
Slide Eight: Not a teenage lesbian
So Olruggio is actually a teacher.
Upon closer inspection i see that his hair is not curly. I truly thought it was. Sorry Agott.
Qifrey may be gay and sad but Olruggio is gay sad and tortured about it
Whatever is wrong with him has nothing on whatever the fuck is wrong with Qifrey i bet
Why is this picture so fucking pixelated.
Next to the text is the cover for the sixth volume of Witch Hat Atelier, which shows Olruggio jumping with his cloak flowing behind him. The picture is far more pixelated than the other images in this slideshow.
Slide Nine: Ok the end because i don’t know who else is part of witch hat! But go read witch hat atelier! Or just wait for the anime but i’m gonna go read the manga (and maybe i’ll rewatch little witch academia too teehee) /end id]
so sorry wha mutuals i didn't pay enough attention to your wha lectures 🙇🙇🙇
#lyz talks#witch hat atelier#i'm planning on starting this this weekend!!!! v v excited cuz a bunch of my mutuals love this manga#and it's getting an anime soon!!! i've been waiting for it lmao#(cuz again. my mutuals love this. and i'm pretty bad at reading manga)#currently managed to borrow the first two (2!!!) volumes from the library so i will be starting this though!! yay!!!#also seriously i think lwa and wha have a LOT in common at least vibewise. in my heart they are cousins.#(has not even started consuming wha and it's been years since i watched lwa)

Your top 5 mangas !
It’s pretty embarrassing how long it took me to make this list. I am so sorry Dy I am the most indecisive person in the world. I ended up ignoring my brain and just going with my gut and my heart— I haven’t completely caught up or finished reading two of these, but they’re the ones that felt right.
5. Haikyuu!!
4. Honey and Clover
3. FullMetal Alchemist
2. Dungeon Meshi
1. D.Gray-Man
Also doing this I realized how many manga I have started but never finished or kept up with, I need to get back on the horse and read. Really loved the first few chapters of Sakamoto Days, but I haven’t gotten around to reading more. I also used to love Blue Exorcist, and was contemplating it for the list, but it’s been so long since I read it and so much has happened in the series since then. Black Butler was also a contender, I had a blast reading the Public School arc.
It also reminded of manga I’ve always wanted to read but just haven’t gotten around to, like Baccano. I watched the anime and have been meaning to read the manga for ages.
Thank you so much for your ask Dy!!💕
#snart talks#snart asks#snart friends: dy��#my anime list would look pretty different I think#but DGM is always number one 😔💕 my ride or die 😔💕#it’s been a while since I read Honey and Clover but it was a big influence on me going to art school#and was the first manga I got all the volumes of

just finished the original devilman manga. wuh!!
#genuinely one of the most batshit narrative structures i can think of#major major spoilers ahead im serious#monster of the week for like 2.9 volumes and then HARD pivot to literal actual armageddon#tbf my exposure is limited to a couple of crybaby watchthrough and the funny ova. yk the one#but only the first one 💀 idk why i didnt watch the second#the characterization differences between this and crybaby are really stark and thats been one of the things absently poking my brain#like really really stark#anyway what a time. im sure its depiction of humanity's self destruction is no longer relevant :)#and the ending always gets me but that final panel is SO FUCKING GOOD#raagghhhh#RAAAAAAAAA#i love the monster designs tbh. he got gnarly witg it in a really distinctive way#admittedly my experience w 70s (and prior) manga is super limited but at the very least the art feels unique to ME#and while my impression of the devilman manga was largely informed by yhat one post about everybody's expressions being wildly off#from their emotions but that's literally just a problem with ryo which means that shit's a character choice. which i love#how could i hate him just look. swagless#the scanlation i was reading did Not do the satan in love with akira reveal justice btw#it's like you ruined everything by fallin in love w akira and satan's like cam you blame me? im a hemaphrodite GIRL YOU CAN'T SAY THAT AND#ALSO WHAT???? WHAT???????#intersex people are famously prone to falling in love with akira fudo alias devilman. i guess??#i keep trying to figure out the logic but it's all bad. oh also ryo's logic in the beginning is kind of circular and dumb#it happened a couple more times but the guy was just raving. just saying shit. that he kind of made real ehich is extremely funny btw#omg manifesting!!!#ALSO I DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS SO MUCH DEVILMAN CONTENT????#i looked at the wiki trying to figure out the series order and like#in 1972 go started devilman and also in 1972 there was an anime adaptation and TWO SEPARATE MANGA ADAPTATIONS of the anime#the people were fucking insatiably lusting after devilman#dvilman lady and violence jack are extremely funny names to me btw#like 16 entries in looking at violence jack: evil town was just too much to me jfhsjsksh. violence georg#ANYWAY. good shit. poor akira as always. poor satan. they reinvented doomed yaoi or whatevr. poor boyos. etc

I'll be honest, I did not expect to love Berserk as much as I do from the first couple of volumes of it
#especially did not expect to love Guts as much as I do now#he's my fave for sure#i liked it ok the first couple volumes but once it started going into the backstories and whatnot i was like woah this is really good#i feel like it's def gonna end up one of my top fave mangas anyhoo#kentaro miura said he took a lot of inspiration from shojo manga in his writing and i think that's what makes it better than average btw#like YES let them also experience lots of emotions and be soft about each other too under all the fighting and gore and badassery thx#if you're thinking about reading it i think it really started being great to me around volume 3-4#13readsmanga#berserk#p

oh yeah. the reason why i decided to reread tbhk (and thus it was able to hit me like a truck this time around) was actually not bc of mitsukou going canon but actually bc i maybe accidentally started a tbhk book club w my kids at work and wanted to check the contents of it justttt in case before i put the books in their hands
#tl;dr i have this one 4th grade boy who's a total weeb and knows that i'm the only one in this town who's more into japanese media than him#so he pesters me abt it every time he sees me. and the thing abt this kid is that he gets bored easily and if he does he turns into a#complete menace. now a couple weeks ago. he shows up at the program w one piece volume one and spends the entire time he's there peacefully#reading and not causing any problems on purpose. my coworker owen (the one who climbed onto the roof) and i were shocked and in awe of how#peaceful he was being and came to the conclusion that he NEEDS to have a manga volume in his hands at all times. few minutes later.#he finishes reading and isn't bored yet so he decides to go talk to me abt manga. specifically he starts pestering me abt what shonen i've#read despite the fact that i am a shoujo reader and told him that. but he knows i've read kuroshitsuji bc he previously asked me abt what#the worst anime i've ever watched is and i will never not take an excuse to drag the adaptation. and he figures that if i've read kuro i've#probably read more. and so i mention tbhk and he asks more abt it bc of the name involving toilets and him being a 4th grade boy so i give#brief overview and he wants to read it. and i come up with a scheme to make him peaceful AND to give him something to talk to me abt which#isn't 'i know you've read more shonen manga' 'let me gacha on your phone' or 'i saw an ad for rent a gf. thought it was lame. and now want#you to tell me how it sucks bc i assume you know everything abt every animanga ever' (<does unfortunately know too much abt rent a gf bc i'#a bit of a nosy bastard and watched the mother's basement video). so i offered to bring it in bc i own physicals of the whole series and of#as previously mentioned. gave it a quick reread in advance just in case. and got hit by it. hard. i love you tbhk almost as much as i love#when ppl get into things through me. honestly i think getting to live vicariously through him might be one of the main reasons it got me#this time around and not as much the first time (still loved it the first time though). flash forward a little while. one of the 3rd grade#girls is like. really into reading. and also macabre things. like ghosts. and she has two books from the school library. and has had the#same two books from the school library for over a week. she reads quickly and finished them both in under a day and is now bored out of her#mind rereading them. she asks to read the books i've been letting the other kid read. now there are two of them#romeo.txt

it is really insane that this is just the beginning of the narrative. i wanna see koharu's narrative play out so badly..... i hope the narrative is able to play out
#rubys clown thoughts#i heard the first volume is selling incredibly well to the point japanese sellers werent expecting international crowds#to latch onto this and thats great!!!! really i wish inee forever success & the ability to finish this story on her own terms#that was absolutely the strongest intro ive ever read for a manga. especially a yuri manga ohmygod#i cant undersell this enough read love bullet please. think of me when you read love bullet

yu yu hakusho is really fun
#i finished reading the manga about a week ago?#idk i can't get over it <3#yyh is actually a big part of my childhood in that my sisters would watch it all the time but mostly the eldest#she always had anime on lmao#but yeah we used to have the first 5 volumes and i would just read them over and over never knowing what happened next#until recently hahah#anyways GROUP PHOTO 🥺😭 they're so cute!!#kuwabara wanting to share a glass with kurama is sweet too I think#URAMESHI'S DEVASTATED REACTION...I can't get over it like. The dark tournament is really what#hits for me. like it was insane. like do u understand#Kuwabara was this guy that wouldn't leave him alone but it was fun to beat him up and then there was the righteous anger#when rando nearly killed kuwabara#but here. the dark tournament. that anguish is for one of the most important people in his life#because yusuke didn't have friends. he thought he didn't. he figured Keiko his mom the teachers kuwabara everyone was better off#but he saw for himself the effect his death had and now he's on the other side of it. Idk smth about it#kuwameshi#Sort of?? Romantic platonic wtv they're all close and care about each other so much <3

So I rearranged my bookshelf a bit for fitting trigun on my shelf...
Top shelf is still my persona shelf. It's way too established to change that. But I moved my assorted other fav manga volumes to the bottom shelf, leaving room for This...
It didn't Quite fit all the way, but it's close enough. This shelf is composed of my three top favorite mangas of all time, which are Also the only 3 series that I own in totality. Specifically bc theyre my favorites & I care enough about them to want to own them all lol
It's... really really nice to see them all in one place like this.
And of course. The trigun ❤️ completely worth the money I spent on them.
#speculation nation#this is nowhere Near the full number of manga and books i own btw#i have. boxes and boxes just sitting in the closet.#but this is my only functional bookshelf. im a little limited.#so i only have the Favs here. at least for manga.#sometime i should go thru all my manga. ive forgotten how much i actually own.#maybe someday i can get some more bookshelves... ive been thinking about it.#for now. this will do.#it makes me so ridiculously happy to see trigun on the shelf. even with it being a bootleg print.#it's honestly pretty great quality for a bootleg. only printing problems i saw were a few of the internal covers were a bit out of order#everything in the volumes themselves were printed Wonderfully#of course dark horse translation so not perfect quality there. but ngl it's almost nostalgic to read that version for me.#that was my first trimax experience. & as much as i value what overhaul has been doing for us#a part of me will always be fond of dark horse's translation too.#and thus why i keep hold of my 'he is reason enough for me to fight' header. i enjoy it Very much.#man. i cant believe i got home 8 hours ago. and ive spent this whole time fucking around with my new manga#but ykno what it's good that it's bringing me so much joy#for how much i spent on it i damn Well better get some enjoyment out of it lmaoooo#but ive read thru them and i will almost Definitely be flipping thru them again in time#i enjoy physically holding manga. it lets me peruse so much more easily than trying to scroll and click thru pages#worth Every Penny........

the epic highs and lows of trying to read an ongoing shounen manga
#for me it uh. tends to have more epic lows than epic highs. im very unlucky with shounen#occasionally a few years after something i start reading it'll turn out to be good#but any time i follow something from the beginning it starts getting. worse#is it me? am i doing this? dont tell me to read your favourite shounen i'll turn it bad#did i ever mention that one manga. the moon is beautiful but first die#a mouthful of a title. it started kinda goofy but i really adored the main character for some reason#im still a bit attached to him. he cleans so well that he got the magic power to see real good. and now he can matrix bullet time#hes just like me for reeeeeeeaaaal hflkanjvdkfljfds but yeah that manga was. weird but fun BUT THEN#it got so wack you guys you dont understand. the first like one or two volumes? fun#everything else? god knows JHKFDJFDK i still read it all tho. i was invested in my guy with seeing real good powers#and im sorry to say. unfortunately it seems. a certain manga with a big tv adaptation that is pronounced oh she no co#my curse. its started. although that ones very much a epic high and epic low situation like itll be so so wack one minute#and suddenly get good again and then plummet back down HFKJDSBHJds we will see how it goes on#i started getting annoyed with the writing after the stageplay arc because they kept like. time skipping over so much#which i thought was a bit of a waste because there was a lot of interesting potential in a lot of the showbiz storylines. but we shall see#thats not shounen tho thats seinen but my curse applies to some seinen too LOL but most seinen i read is already finished#and shoujosei is spared from my curse. i think just because most i have the opportunity to read in english just tends to not#be drawn out or have weird scheduling things messing with the pacing. are there any weekly shoujosei magazines out there#i dont think weekly manga is good. for a lot of reasons mostly the mangakas health but also i find more weekly stuff i read#that isnt like. 4koma stuff suffers in its pacing a LOT. but again that might be my curse. the second i lay my eyes on it. the curse#(sorry ive been catching up on a lot of manga recently LOL ur getting my manga thoughts now)

Well this is different from Leiji's usual "tall pretty noodle lady" schtick. A smol chubby lady who, ngl, looks kinda like me, she's got my body type and everything!
I was cheering when I saw her. Like chanting "Chubby lady! Chubby lady! Chubby lady! 🥳🥳🥳"
#leiji matsumoto#leijiverse#otoko oidon#manga scan#70s manga#just skimming through the second volume since i finished the first one for the most part#i feel like my reading comprehension has improved a bit. not a whole lot but it's certainly better than it was even some years ago#but like no joke this random girl who only appears in a few panels is just too cute and she even has little freckles like i do!#her name is futoshi i think. she deserves love#as does nobotta#he gets a lot of love in japan but nowhere else
