the only thing more difficult than boxing up my manga is packing up all the art books i have... it's so hard not to flip through them all while i'm putting them away 😭

do not let caseys sunshiness distract you from the fact that she is just as much emotionally constipated as ludger.

hi! i'm sorry for the dumb question but i wanted to finally start reading manga in japanese (i already have a little list of titles beginner-friendly) buuuut i'm not sure where i actually find it ;; sorry again for the stupid question

Not a dumb question at all! There are a bunch of places to get manga, the most accessible probably being (unfortunately) amazon.jp. You need to have a Japanese address to buy things regardless of where it's being shipped to (or not, in the case of ebooks), but I believe just any address will do. You can also sometimes buy manga directly on the publisher's sites. Cmoa is another good place to check, and they also will often have entire volumes of manga available to read on their site for free (just look for the 無料 section). Bilingualmanga might also be of interest. It's free (and therefore sometimes gets taken down), but is exactly what it sounds like. Their selection isn't huge, but what they do have, they have in both English and Japanese.

If you want to buy physical volumes, CDJapan is my go-to. I'm in the USA, but I'm pretty sure they ship to most parts of the world. Kinokuniya is also a good place to buy manga from, especially if you're lucky enough to have a physical store near you. My main issue with them is that I think they're overpriced, though. Another thing that depends on luck, if you have any Book Off stores near you, go check them out! It's secondhand, so finding what you're looking for is definitely luck based, but I think it's a good experience to browse Japanese language books and manga regardless.

If you're having trouble finding something in particular, or want some... slightly less legal sources, feel free to contact me off anon!

cant believe how I set a new goal for myself this year to try out video game genres outside my comfort zone, and specifically outlined to try out a Musou game out as one of said game genres, and what do you know, not even a day after announcing that, Stephanie Sterling comes around and just Decides to drop two videos about Musou games. PERFECT TIMING.

[Posted 19 October 2012] Defeat Your torn banner, bloodied and snapped by the wind. Swords are not shining headstones. They stand upright, watching the dead, better guardians than you. The claws of a dragon broken and blunt. Look upon them. Their bodies are circled with soil and snow. You cannot fulfil the vow to protect, you cannot grant their tomorrows no. One organ gouged, wasted, gone. There lies another.

I recently got a bookstore gift card for graduation, and I was wondering if anyone had any good fantasy recommendations? I tend to like stuff by authors such as Tamora Pierce, Naomi Novik, Trudi Canavan, Shannon Hale, but I've also enjoyed some Madeline L'Engle (I know she's more SF than fantasy) and Dianne Wynn Jones. I also recently read a book by Foz Meadows, who's title escapes me now, that I also enjoyed. I'll take recommendations in other genres as well, but fantasy tends to be my favorite, and I'd love to get a new book or author to dive into!

So I've been reading Gakuen Basara but I can't read japanese so I just kind of guess what's happening and it's so funny bc out of context everything looks super wild

My favorite is these panels of Mitsunari taking flowers to Ieyasu and getting rejected ??????? I guess ????????

(probably not what's happening but I'm making the rules)

Tanba is a little confused as to why Magoichi is taking... that form (unless that isn't in fact the Shigehide he knew) but he's still glad that for once, a fellow Nobunaga disliker has made it to Chaldea.
