Title: Sensei ni, Ageru. Author: YAMADA Daisy ISBN# 978-4-06-364288-9 Kodansha Comics, 2010 Because I obviously don’t talk about enough teacher x student manga on this site, here is yet another one :) I picked this one up not just because of the teacher-student theme, which is a guilty pleasure of mine, but also because this [...]
Title: Tsuugaku Densha Author: TSUKUSHIMA Sango ISBN# 978-4-08-846549-4 Margaret Comics, 2010 I generally don’t buy manga volumes or manga magazines that have pictures of models/actors/real-people on the cover.

I love how Shueisha will post the the first chapter (in Japanese) of so many of their new releases for free! This practice has [...]
Title: Boy & Cool Author: HARUKI Saki ISBN# 978-4-06-341703-6 Kodansha Comics, 2010 I picked up this cute oneshot volume because of the boy on the cover (oooh big surprise there!). I liked his mischievous expression. There is something about him that reminds me of Kikuchi Kamaro’s Rock Shounen works. All he needs is the tongue [...]
NOTE: I do NOT offer or link to manga downloads or scans on this site. PLEASE don't ask me where you can read this stuff online. Almost all of my summaries are based on actual books I buy and read in Japanese. I have no idea if any of this is online, and would encourage people to purchase the actual books.
