Also, I rattled off a few "manga/light novel series w/ very long titles" - including "Suppose A Kid From the Last Dungeon Boonies Moved to a Starter Town" fr @SquareEnixBooks - about a kid who's the weakest in his hometown, but not anywhere else. https://t.co/wAzuc5k6Ps
I'm not sure which "kid goes to demon school" series @slicedfriedgold was referring to, but i'm guessing it's "Welcome to Demon School Iruma-kun" - the anime's on Crunchyroll https://t.co/Sms05yF8lk & the manga is coming in May fr. @KodanshaManga
the 'soccer manga for grown-ups' i recommended on Off Panel is Giant Killing. A down-on-its-luck Tokyo pro team recruits its former star who's now a coach in England. His specialty? Using the opposing team's strategies against themselves in surprising ways https://t.co/SM38u87rSD
The other rakugo manga that I mentioned that has maybe more of a grown-up/dramatic mood is Descending Stories (available fr. @KodanshaManga - Free preview: https://t.co/YYtMEadflB)/aka Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju (anime on @crunchyroll).
The "shogi" / japanese chess manga I mentioned in this episode of Off Panel podcast is March Comes in Like a Lion by Chica Umino - the first print vol. of this heartfelt series is coming this month fr. @denpa_books + anime is on Netflix too! https://t.co/fJlEYkWhZu
in lieu of show notes, i'll add a few shout-outs to manga we mentioned on this week's chat with @sktchdcomic
First, @slicedfriedgold's "manga gateway drug," 20th Century Boys by Naoki Urasawa - now available as a 12-volume "perfect edition" fr. @VIZMedia https://t.co/wfWrLB76dn https://t.co/Y0Pirji6nr
@hermanos might appreciate this: special screenings of the Slam Dunk movie in Japan will allow fans to cheer and yell as they would in a live sporting event. Masks required, but they’ll give out paper megaphones & turn the movie sound up louder than usual https://t.co/KbIwrTBGBs
But if you’re hungry for “shojo / josei horror manga magazines,” @Mandarake_En has a whole section of ‘em. https://t.co/9Hevp7EO1d | @KodanshaManga has published an English collection by the “queen of horror manga,” Kanako Inuki too https://t.co/qDsytYpR2D
but you know what? this perhaps unexpected blurriness of gender/age/story genres is part of what makes manga so much fun to read! Oshi no Ko (fr. @yenpress) is *not* what you expect it will be from it's cover, and that's amazing https://t.co/x6idDIgKos
