We've had a dip in support for the last few months which is totally understandable since finances are looking tight for a lot of folks. But if you are feeling up for supporting an independent media site that focuses on manga, now's a good time to sign up for a yearly or monthly membership.

“Everyone's emotions are unique and I wanted to have that expressed in each of the characters by using hand-drawn [art], watercolors, and water brush techniques.” - artist and mangaka Marco Kohinata discussing her personal style

🚨 ANNOUNCEMENT: Sendai Books will soon announce two new manga titles. If you're a journalist, blogger, or media outlet and would like to receive the official press release, submit your details through the contact form on our website, or tag your preferred news outlet so we can reach out. Thank you!

Then they end and suddenly I'm like, "oh yeah, this is actual a comic and there's some kind of plot and arc and stuff to all this, isn't there? Wait... isn't there?" Soo... I'm digging it, I just hope it kind of comes together in the end.

... wandering from one philosophical musing to the next. Love, man v. nature, reality v. dreams, what is death, beauty, etc. At times the discussions the characters have about this are really engaging and enjoyable, accompanied by lovely visuals.

I really hope the Shojo/Josei manga nominated at 2026 American Manga Awards get the attention they deserve🤞 ( @darkhorse.com credits roll into the sea, @nyrb-imprints.bsky.social Miss Ruki, @viz.com Cocoon, @yenpress.com fruits basket and @glacierbaybooks.com Horrors of Noroi Michiru) All are great!

Today I have an interview with another mangaka, Hirokazu Oshima. His manga, Ending Theme, was translated by Star Fruit Books and you can get copies currently from Glacier Bay Books. #manga #comics #altcomics #mangaka electrictransit.wordpress.com/2026/07/17/h...

Hirokazu Oshima Interview

Hirokazu Oshima is a Japanese mangaka. Star Fruit Books has translated his comic Ending Theme. His comics have been published in Japan by BRUTUS magazine and he also self-publishes. Hello Hirokazu …

Here's the top 25-32 from my 2025 comics reading (full list here: goodokbad.com/2025). • To The Sea, an eco-fantasy and not a horror book, is more horrifying than any horror-genre book I've ever read. • The Princess Beast gets even better in v3, both solidifying things and moving away from coyness

A lovely end to Girlfriend's Child, just such a thoughtful little story. Always delighted about getting to see what Glacier Bay is publishing, as well!

Always love and MOC project, revisiting Layla and Airy was a blast! Some good horror here too, the Noroi Michiru collection was particularly fun

arrivals from @glacierbaybooks.com Akari - Marco Kohinata Stoked when it got licensed! Highly recommended✨ Has a dust jacket and came with a print bonus! cute💖 Godhead - Courtney Loberg Got a bit of everything! comics, art, and some BTS too! The illustration and water colour style is GORGEOUS!✨

I forgot to post, but that hasn’t stopped the books from spinning here at chez ARC Festival @arcfestivallondon.bsky.social Unit 08 Copeland Park Peckham London. So hot out I suggest stopping by our table and purchasing the requisite books with which to form an air circulation system.

Also cross-sharing a recent SNS notice: For those waiting on their Star Clock slipcase set, thank you for your patience. After some production issues last month, the printer is just finishing up with them. We’ll be sending out preorders as soon as we receive those units.

We’ll see folks at @arcfestivallondon.bsky.social tomorrow! Find our table on site (I don’t think there’s a festival map) at 08 Copeland Park in Peckham, London.

We owe you an apology
