 A large, metallic creature dominates the right side of the image. It appears jagged and geometric, resembling a robot or mechanized entity with multiple angular surfaces and protrusions. In the foreground, there is a traditional Japanese torii gate, its angular lines contrasting with the organic shapes of the landscape. Dark shadows and hatching are used extensively to create depth and texture, with a bold red sky filling the background. The title "Great Metal God" arches across the top in large, bold white letters. Beneath it reads the subtitle "An Illustrated Science Fiction Tale" in smaller font. In the bottom right corner, the words "Iwakuni Kogyo" are vertically aligned in red against a black background. The cover features a soft pink background, with ornate golden designs framing the artwork. At the center, there’s an illustration depicting a princess-like figure with long hair, wearing an elegant dress, positioned beside a white horse. The scene radiates a magical atmosphere, enhanced by pastel colors and dreamy floral patterns in the background. The title of the book, "The Sword of Paros," is prominently displayed in a whimsical font, colored in a soft purple and gold. A wrap-around manga book cover titled 'VEGETABLE SANDWICH!' by Banjo Saitou. The front cover features a determined young girl and a surprised teenage boy in a blue school uniform in dynamic poses against a yellow circle and colorful confetti.The image is an illustration of a young person with shoulder-length hair, depicted in an anime style. The character is drawn in grayscale with a textured, pencil-like shading. They have a calm expression and are gazing slightly downward. The character is wearing a collared shirt and a dark blazer, with a patterned guitar visible in the lower right corner.

Happy International Left-Handers Day to all our southpaw readers out there! Honestly, holding a manga and flipping pages from right to left always felt like a natural left-handed victory anyway. Shoutout to everyone navigating a right-handed world one page at a time!

However, we appreciate your patience and are grateful you come to us for your Shogakukan fix. We hope to be back on track, but it might be a little while. Still there’s a lot of fun stiff coming from us and our partners so please keep an eye out! We’ll keep you well read and fed.🙏

As a reminder there’s no Shonen Sunday this week! The magazine will be back next week with a Parashoppers cover! ✨ ✨ Also, we wanted to apologize for our lacking news coverage lately. Personal things are happening left and right which means breaking news sometimes falls to the wayside.

Happy Tuesday, friends! Sunlight is hitting the desk just right, the stack of unread manga is looking beautiful (and slightly intimidating), and the vibes are set. What's the very first book or volume you're planning to pick up once you get a free moment today?

Good morning! ☕️ The morning coffee is brewing, and the temptation to read "just one more chapter" before starting work is dangerously high. Did anyone actually manage to put their book down last night, or are we all running on pure caffeine today?
