The Way of the Househusband continues to be a delightful and often hilarious read, even five volumes in. I can see why it's so popular (and why it has both an anime and a live-action series). It's so easy to relate to the characters, even when their backstories are so wildly different from our own.
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!).
Series Binge: That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Vol. 6
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Vol. 6 wastes no time throwing readers back into the deep end. To be fair, a lot is going on, so there isn't much time for hand-holding. We have enemies and allies galore, not to mention a few more twists in progress.
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.
Series Binge: Fire Force Vol. 7
Ohhh! Time for more characters to get introduced, thanks to Fire Force Vol. 7. I know there's already a really full cast at this point, but I instantly felt compelled to learn more about Vulcan – everything I could get.
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!
Series Binge: My Hero Academia Vol. 27
I could read My Hero Academia Vol. 27 a hundred times and still feel that emotional hit every time. This is a heavy volume, but it's also brilliant. The battles are bold and fascinating, with hidden depths everywhere.
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.
