I'm back from my US trip. Was a really great three weeks. Had the chance to meet up for the first time with my best friend that I met online years ago, which was amazing. She gave me my Kagurabachi mug that I asked her to buy for me from the M+ store, so that's being used immediately!

Beautiful homage to Matt.

Fuck. I don't even know what to say. Matt inspired me back in his scanlation days with his unending kindness and support. Needed an obscure 80s manga that had a tiny print run? Matt would help you find it and scan it for you, all because he loved the medium so much. I'll miss you, Matt.

Cat bit me at 3am so i turned her into a wojak

Boarded my flight to the US. Aim to eat so many flamin hot cheetos when there that I'll be the first person in medical history to get cancer from red 40 in 3 weeks.

On 2 September 1973 J.R.R. #Tolkien died aged 81. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is the best-selling book of the 20th Century, and is joined by seminal works The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. He may have died 52 years ago but his influence and legacy lives on in us all. Namárië. #BookSky

You love to see it.

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

Fucking weak sauce statement. Oopsie woopsie we accidentally used the plagiarism machine 😢 Fuck off.

I am unbelievably excited to say that @lettererbrendo.bsky.social and I are lettering the English release of Billy Bat! Both of us!

Dream team right here!!!

👏👏👏👏

We interviewed Hidemi Shiraki, the Editor-in-Chief of Young Magazine USA, to discuss the upcoming special edition of the magazine, differences between Japanese and overseas audiences, and more!

Didn’t want to believe this was true. It’s true.

Man, you just had to be there when this album came out.

Yes x1000 this game fucks SO hard. Top 5 SW game of all time. youtu.be/02EEo-vm-ZY?...

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO AAAAAAAAAAAAH The BEST series in Jump bare NONE finally gets an anime!!!!!!!! Akane-banashi www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVmU...

Hooooly fuck So confidently wrong as well. When they say "people who read the books" they mean "people who've seen the movies and assumed they were book accurate". Willing to bet €100 right now that 98% of those people never read The Silmarillion and that 50% of them don't even know what that is.

i'm sorry for posting facts:

Happy 71st anniversary to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring! J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendary journey began on this day in 1954 the first step into the timeless world of Middle-earth. 📚 Here’s to the story that changed fantasy forever.

@viz.com what is this AI slop shit doing on the Viz app? I pay for human work, not AI garbage.

"And now that my heart is empty Where should I go? You've always been a constant My northern star, where do I go Yeah, without you?" Thank you Vinland Saga. Thank you Yukimura-sensei. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkyz...

Vinland Saga has finally concluded. I have mixed feelings on the ending/epilogue and it's pacing but I thought it ended beautifully with Plmk being the final character you see. Mini Thread down below 🧵

It's over... 🥹

Small 📦 from 🇯🇵! This time around I got some Ao Ashi merch as well as two copies of the final chapter issue (I ended up winning both auctions I bid on lol).

I have read the final Vinland Saga chapter. 11.5 years of following the series monthly ended today. What a surreal feeling. I think the ending is good. When the chapter releases on Friday, please be mindful of spoilers. Let's not ruin the finale for people.

super nerd

A friend of mine will be at the event with Yukimura-sensei tomorrow and she's kind enough to print out a letter from me to sensei. We don't know if there would be any opportunity to hand it over to him, but I hope so!

Game doesn't make CEO enough money? Fired. Game makes CEO a lot of money? Also fired, so CEO can make more money.

IT'S HEEEEEREEEEE

over 20% of the global game dev force was laid of on the last 3 years and absolutely none of it was because of piracy

Wouldn't want it any other way. Fun maxing this summer!

Ichi the Witch is really shaping up to be the next One Piece in terms of scale and the feeling of adventure. Shit is SO good. If you're not on it yet, you are missing out!

Only a couple thousand signatures are still needed. If you live in the EU and care about video games in the slightest, please sign this initiative: www.stopkillinggames.com

This is so pathetic. And for those yelling "just pirate! Piracy offers a better solution!" no it fucking doesn't because anime piracy is 99.999999999999999% Crunchyroll rips these days. There's like 6 maybe 7 fansubbers still out there.

So yeah... Got an absolute stupid deal on this. 5 euros each. Very happy to own this and finally being able to watch all the behind the scenes and extras without having to scour for them on YouTube. I already have the blurays and 4k extended editions, but they don't have all the extras...

Finished Squid Game season 3. I have some serious issues with this season (as well as just s2+s3 together, since it's essentially one big season), but overall did like the final ending.

1200 professional fonts for 19 bucks. No-brainer. ci.itch.io/all-fonts-pack

Got 3 more chapters than I expected. Really did enjoy this one. I think the secret agent or whatever they were plotline drove the series off the cliff. Let's see if Morihiro Hayashi gets another chance in the magazine. 5/10

yes, i lied to you // #sinners

I'm so excited to spend all weekend in front of the TV. The Bear season 4 and Squid Game season 3, insane lineup.

My votes for the 2025 Tsugimanga awards in the print and web categories! Absolutely STACKED lineup this year, wish I could've picked more than three, but these 6 are definitely my favourites right now. You can vote yourself here: tsugimanga.jp/nominate/com...

It's menelya

Don't judge a book by its cover but... damn this cover goes hard.
