Hey y'all! I have another American Manga Awards nominee to share with you, this time it's A CAT IS A CAT IN ANY LIFE by Ema Tohyama. #GraphicLibrary #Manga #SchoolLibraries #MangaAwards
Steel of the Celestial Shadows volume 7 is a giant boss fight, and I'm here for it. Konosuke gets to be a bit of a badass and show off some of what he's been learning this whole series, and it's awesome. There are some great payoff moments. #GraphicLibrary #Manga #SchoolLibraries #BookReview
Today's review is a BL manga from @tokyopop.bsky.social. This mature manga features many beloved tropes & some GORGEOUS art. We've got the enemies to lovers, brooding hero, innocent beautiful boy... the list goes on! It's complete in 1 vol, so payoff is quick! #GraphicLibrary #Manga #BookReview
Today's review is My Secretly Hot Husband volume 4. Letitia and Erden finally get some relief from battling demons, but now they have a horde of noblemen calling for Erden to divorce Letitia so they can marry her instead!
I'm excited to live in a world where people are seriously talking about the historical accuracy of adaptations of The Odyssey - an oral poem about gods and monsters attributed to a fictional blind poet.
It’s time for the @tokyopop.bsky.social industry panel! Day 4 of #AnimeExpo is here and we’re definitely feeling it, but here we go 🥱
Watched the 1st episode of #FireflyWedding and it was BEAUTIFUL! Really does the manga justice. #AnimeExpo #AX
Magic Knight Rayearth World Premiere was amazing!!! We got to see the first two episodes, which were beautiful & everything I was hoping from a reboot. VOs for Umi & Emeraude joined us and answered questions, then we saw new promo art & a new trailer! #AnimeExpo #AX #Rayearth #MagicKnightRayearth
Now at @denpabooks.bsky.social / Kuma Books panel featuring new releases & new announcements #AnimeExpo #AX #DenpaBooks

#WitchHatAtelier panel was amazing. No photos or video were allowed so this is all I have, the group photo at the end with the voice actors of Coco and Qifrey (not even on the pic😅) and all the cosplayers. Shirahama-sensei came out as a Brimmed Cap to preserve her privacy. #AnimeExpo #AX
Inklore panel recap. I’m not leaving this Hall H — I mean Peacock Theater.
Now at the #AnimeExpo Inklore panel and ready for some more yuri and yaoi (and more)
Oh man, #GreenYuri, the anime 😆 And of course I recognized the music right away (which bodes well considering their taste in bands that come up throughout the story) youtu.be/TL-IGyJGf-w?...
