Comic & Manga Reviews
I was too curious about Gachiakuta to pass up the second volume! The first volume introduced us to an interesting character and a dangerous world. The second volume? Well, it lets us see more of the stakes and the situation Rudo has fallen into (literally).

I’ll confess that I’m still extremely curious to see where Solo Leveling will take us. What heights will Jinwoo reach before the end - and what event signals the end, for that matter? That made me eager to dive into Solo Leveling Vol. 5.
The Marked #6 starts a whole new plot arc in this series of magic and deception. Still reeling from the loss of their comrades, the surviving Marked begin a discussion – of the past. It is not the story you might expect to hear, either.
Giga Town: The Guide to Manga Iconography is exactly what the title promises – a collection of guides and informative pages, all about the different symbols and icons used within manga. All while using cute creatures to help illustrate the point!
Yes! I fell in love with The Glass Scientists thanks to volume one, so I am thrilled to have gotten my greedy little hands on The Glass Scientists Vol. 2. It is everything I could have hoped for – and quite possibly more.
Eee! I'm so happy to finally have My Next Life as a Villainess Vol. 9! I feel like I've been waiting forever for the next volume in this series (in reality, it hasn't been all that long – a year at most). I love that this series is continuing. Does this mean we'll (eventually) get a new season for the anime?
I went into Witch Hat Atelier Vol. 11 feeling a bit conflicted. On the one hand, I'm eager to see where this arc goes! (Especially as the stakes are so high). But I was also a bit hesitant, as this is the last of Witch Hat Atelier until May (2024). I know it's not a huge wait, but still! I've gotten used to binging the series.
Whew. The power scale sure is shifting fast! I think Solo Leveling Vol. 4 may have upped the scales the most thus far. At least, it feels that way. Basically, once [spoiler ability] got unlocked, all bets went off the table.
The Marked #5 wraps up the first plot arc and volume of the series, and it does so with gusto. The Marked portrays the darker sides of magic. Where temptation and corruption can take root. Yet there is always a shining beacon, even in a series like this.
