After the last six months of manga megapost, this one will seem frankly sedate, covering only October’s releases. We’ve still got some cool stuff though, including the climax of one of manga’s longest running and most successful series, so hit that lil’ button and see for yourself.

Hello! Been a while, eh? And look at that, the blog’s had a minor facelift. And the calendars working! And other behind the scenes nonsense you can’t see, but I assure you is totally rad. But, er, where was I. Oh yeah. Manga. We’ve seen a huge crop of titles come out over the past …

Time for a manga megapost! There’s been a barrage of great releases over the past three months for fans of right to left comics from all the publishers, with more being licensed by the day (thank you Seven Seas for licensing Accelerator <3), so much so I can’t cover everything as in-depth as I would …

Some of which have gone on to become enormous successes, like Cardcaptor Sakura, or Chobits, which I reviewed last year. But this time I want to focus …

The blog is alive and kicking once more! So to kick us off, what with it being Marvel week here and since I imagine (read – hope) the committee will be talking about comics, I’m gonna instead recommend a manga. How could I possibly tie one into Marvel? Well, this one’s written by Stan Lee, …

Wait we’re doing these again? Time for the resident weeaboo to return to form then. Chobits is one of Clamp’s creations, and odds are you’ve heard of something they’ve made. The all-female mangaka group are responsible for Cardcaptor Sakura, Clover, xxxHolic, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle and most recently Gate 7 (first volume is out now, its …

Well, when you’ve covered anime, cartoons, comics and wecomics, the only thing left is manga. There’s a ridiculous amount avaliable to choose from, but what better place to start than with the most recent creation of Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata, the people who created international mega-hit Death Note. I am of course talking about …
