Oh! What an interesting start to a new series! Gachiakuta Vol. 1 kicks off a new series by Kei Urana, who happened to apprentice under Atsushi Okubo. Obviously, I had to give his work a try! Thus far, I'm not disappointed.
Manga Monday: The Apothecary Diaries Vol. 1
Where has this series been all my life?! Okay, I know I'm being a little dramatic there, especially as I'm a few years behind on checking this series out. But it's perfection! The Apothecary Diaries Vol. 1 is a fantastic start to a series.
Manga Monday: Dandadan Vol. 2
I have to admit that I'm enjoying this series way more than I expected! Dandadan Vol. 2 is just as funny as the first volume, but with a few new twists and complications to throw into the mix (like they didn't have enough to deal with!).
Manga Monday: Bocchi the Rock! Vol. 1
Oh dear. Poor Hitori is soo shy. I just want to hug and protect her (but that would probably make her freak out, so I wouldn't actually do that). Bocchi the Rock! Vol. 1 is a gentle start to the series, introducing us to our primary character, her new friends, and the situation she's made for herself.
Manga Monday: Dandadan Vol. 1
Dandadan Vol. 1 is a chaos-fueled blast, and I am here for it. This volume is a lot, and I mean that, mostly in a good way! We have a quick rundown of the characters and their backstories, and then we're off to the races!
Manga Monday: Wolf Girl and the Black Prince Vol. 1
Okay, so there's a lot to unpackage in Wolf Girl and the Black Prince Vol. 1. I can see why people have either a love or hate relationship with the series (and I'm only one volume in!). The good: there are a lot of fun romantic tropes in here (enemies-to-lovers, fake boyfriend, forced proximity, grumpy/sunshine, etc.).
Manga Monday: Yashahima: Princess Half-Demon Vol. 1
I've been tempted (but on the fence) about Yashahima for a while now. But I finally caved and dove into Yashahima: Princess Half-Demon Vol. 1. In truth, this experience was...mixed for me. There were parts I adored and parts I couldn't run away from fast enough.
Manga Monday: My Next Life as a Villainess Vol. 8
Poor Catarina. It seems like every time her life is back to normal (well, her version of normal), something else happens. On that note, My Next Life as a Villainess Vol. 8 wastes no time throwing readers back into the action – of her missing brother.
Manga Monday: Flying Witch Vol. 3
This series is just as sweet and charming as I remember! Granted, it hasn't even been a month since I read the second volume, so there's that...Anyway! I'm still enjoying this witchy slice-of-life tale.
Manga Monday: The Way of the Househusband Vol. 3
Once upon a time, a man named Tatsu was a fierce member of the Yakuza. He was known as the Immortal Dragon and infamous for everything he did – and survived. But that was years ago. Now he's a househusband and quite dedicated to the job.
