East Asian Style

Medalist 1 by TSURUMAIKADA

Definitely one of my new favorites so far this year, the void in my heart left by the cancellation of Ice Adolescence has been filled!! <3 Iori is such a loveable protagonist, seeing her do something she loves fills me with so much joy and inspiration.

The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn’t a Guy at All, Vol. 2 by Sumiko Arai

This series is utter perfection, NO NOTES. I’ve been keeping up with this one since it was unofficially translated, and I love that it has an intersection of two of my favorite things– rock music and gay stuff 🙂 The pops of bright green with the art style are so eye-catching and fun, so glad more people get to experience this story!!

Snowball Earth, Vol. 2 by Yuhiro Tsujitsugu

The first volume in this series was such a fun spin on the mecha vs. kaiju genre, and this next installment did not disappoint. All of the new worldbuilding adds to the mystery of what happened to the earth while Tetsuo was asleep, I can’t wait to see what happens next!!
