Colette decides to die is going to be translated into English by Viz!!!

I'm so happy

[arataka-reigen]

The romance in this series is not extremely explicit right from the start, we get a few beautiful and quiet pages like this once in a while, but I already love how their relationship is handled. I hope to see them get closer and closer.

[Info about Sugar Apple Fairy Tale]

to be updated if needed

Sugar Apple Fairy Tale season 1 ends with such a big cliffhanger for everyone, and there are not many people knowing about this series since it was more than 10 years ago. As an old reader, I hope to offer some clarification for those who need it.

Sugar Apple Fairy Tale was originally a light novel series and got picked up by Aquascans, translated by Icarus Bride, unfortunately the project was dropped with only 2 volumes finished: https://aquascans.wordpress.com/novels/sugar-apple-fairy-tale-novel/

On Aquascans tumblr, if you search using “sugar apple fairy tale” tag, you can still find the illustrated pictures used in the novel. The illustrator and character design is Aki-sensei. Back then I fancied this novel for the illustration since I’ve liked her drawing style for a long time ago.

Then the novel was promoted with one-volume manga drawn by Yukimura Alto. She is the author of the shoujo-manga: Colette wa Shinu Koto ni Shita (Colette and Hades)

It also got 2 drama CDs with Shall voiced by Sakurai Takahiro and Ann by Okubo Rumi. I personally like this version better than the anime. Shall is more mischievous and Ann is calmer in the novel and drama CD.

Spoilers:

Shall will come back to Ann in the next volume (or in season 2 anime). Later in the series he declares his love for her and they kiss. One fun fact is Ann keeps counting the number of kiss they share, but when she is asleep, Shall still kisses her without her being aware of. So he finds it amusing as she incorrectly counts the number later on.

There are two other fairies who are stone-brothers to Shall. Shall Fen Shall was born from obsidian, Raphal Fen Raphal from opal, and Eril Fen Eril from diamond. Shall, Raphal and Eril were from three stones inlaid in the late fairy king’s sword by himself. They are the candidates for the next fairy king.

Mythril will be dying because of his short life span (born from water) but saved by Eril, though he loses his water-control ability. Ann was stabbed by Raphal and saved by Eril, however she loses all her confections making skill and has to start training again.

Raphal fights Shall; they both go missing and lose memory. However, Shall retrieves his memory and comes back to Ann. They get married and the series ends here. The recently published volume is after their marriage.

It’s a pity that at the time I knew about this series, half of them had been published and I missed most of the extra short stories sold exclusively and limitedly. TT_TT

Sorry if you've been asked this before, but I was curious since you mentioned manga - what are some of your favorite shoujo works? Thank you in advance and have a nice day.

i have been asked this before but you have no idea how desperate i always am to talk about shoujo 😭 so i'm gonna split my recs up kinda by genre and i'll note whether it's completed or not, i'll try to include some of the more recent ones i'm reading

my fav shoujo manga is kimi ni todoke (completed), i especially love the female friendships in this manga and it's an incredible coming-of-age story, i think this one is more well-known but it deserves it!!

another well-known shoujo with a great female protagonist is of course kamisama hajimemashita (completed), i would die for nanami

something that i love abt shoujo is that the female leads may not be physically powerful but their actions shape the narrative and they are shown to be powerful because of their qualities, i think for girls you want to see girls kicking ass of course but you also want to see that girls are not passive, that they will do what they can and that their actions are powerful

my fav isekai manga, kanata kara (completed), has a protagonist like that, it's a really underrated gem that does a lot of world-building and the female lead even has to learn the language of the world she's teleported to, she can't communicate with the male lead or anyone else at the start, and i love her she's so clever and resourceful and compassionate, it's one of those "good beats evil" stories

i am so behind on it but i also love akatsuki no yona, incredible world-building, intricate character relationships and growth, it's so so good i need to get caught up, but if you like this one i also enjoyed kusanagi's other work mugen spiral (completed, short and cute demon/shrine maiden romance)

other recs: watashi no shiawase na kekkon is a cute cinderella story, colette wa shinu koto ni shita (completed but not online yet ;_;) is a touching persephone/hades style story where the female lead finds new appreciation for her life and her skills as a doctor, sayonara rose garden (completed) is a historical shoujo yuri where you really root for the couple...

isekai manhwa recs (somewhere between shoujo and josei imo) :

for better or for worse (completed) is classic shakespearian romantic dramedy imo, the miscommunications are a genre standard, it's fun and the female lead is drawn with fangs like a rough and tumble anime boy and i love that for her the villainess is a marionette, closer to josei probably, kayena is a certified Girl Boss and hellbent on revenge and she has a lady squad backing her up + devoted pretty moid a wicked tale of cinderella's stepmom, female lead is almost 40, lots of focus on the daughters coming of age and who they want to be, "cinderella" not wanting to be with the prince the villainess flips the script, i just really love judith she's so funny and she's athletic and accidentally kills a guy not-sew-wicked stepmom, snow white story, deals with misogyny and disordered eating and also it kinda looks like there's gonna be yuri on the side rn ?? two female characters confirmed to be into women master villainess the invincible, our girl is so badass.... and the original heroine is also bloodthirsty and she rocks too, also i personally think the male lead is hot tbh and usually it's just some guy to me the crow's prince is just really funny to me, how did they make that crow so expressive... and if i had a nickel for every isekai where the female lead spends a good chunk of it as a bird i would have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice but anyway the falcon princess is also a lot of fun with birds

and i'm also really into how to hide the emperor's child bc astelle is insanely cunning but the male lead does not deserve her at all

my anilist is miniblin and i have logged basically every manga i've ever read on there lol so if ur curious

[eerna]

Idk what you're gonna think of this but I was reading a manga today and it reminded me of you since you read Noragami and you also read the PJo series (gosh what a sad turnout), but have you ever read Colette Wants To Die/ Kore wa Shinu Koto ni Shita? It's basically a Hades and Persephone (the story uses Persephone's other name, Kore/Colette as a pun and also her name/Japanese pronunciation, lol clever) story with a lot of kinder and more fairy tale like twists, all of the greek characters are in there too, i wonder what you'd think of it 💜

I haven't heard of it before, thanks for the rec! :)

I’m really hoping that Colette wa Shinu Koto ni Shita will finally get an official English translation

i feel like if colette wa shinu koto ni shita ever got an anime adaptation it should sound like the first gosick op
