Another week in the books. Let's chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.

Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).

2025 started with a bang - not the fun kind though. It was more of a gut punch followed by a baseball bat to the knee. Lets hope things will go up from here.

On the less serious, manga side I learned that Asura’s Dish of the Day, a cute romance manga I've been posting recently was axed early on and has only two more chapters to go. While it wasn't high art I did have fun reading it so it's a rather unfortunate piece of news.

Back to reading the usual stuff, I guess.

I think this probably happens to the majority of manga unfortunately. If they don't sell well they get canceled and replaced with something else.

Oh I should clarify. I meant this bit:

Sorry about that.

Medical emergency in the family. Not exactly a surprise but turned out to be more immediate and serious than anyone thought it would be. Take care of your mental health folks!

Fuck :(

Sorry that happened to you.

Eh, that's life. Gotta dust yourself off and keep moving forward - not much else can be done at the moment.
Still, thanks.
