Second - Lots of secret talks happened that the reader doesn't know between Kenshiro and Raoh. It's not a bad thing, per say, but it's a lot and a lot to reveal all at once. It still leads to some poignant moments, but it's also gives way to "Huh" a few times.

Finally - once more, having feelings, allowing yourself to love, conquers all. I love that in a series about beefy men beating each other up in a post-apocalyptic setting, this is OFTEN the central moral.

New Read - Fist of the North Star, Volume 16 (Viz Hardcover Edition)

Another fantastic, violent volume of Fist of the North Star. Kenshiro has his final battle with Kaioh and so many secrets about the past are revealed. Also, Bat returns to carry Rin off into the sunset.

Big moments: First- Kenshiro recognized that he should not be with Rin. Rin always "loved him" in that she looked up to him, not romantically. Bat loved her so fiercely, always. And she loved him too. Letting them go together makes sense.

New Read - Animal Crossing: New Horizons Deserted Island Diary

Another volume of Animal Crossing's on-going silly manga set in the New Horizons game. It's very silly, very fun, very full of in-jokes for folks who play the game.

Each chapter is a silly self-contained story. My favorite is the one where everyone decides to honor Tom Nook with gifts for all the good he's done for the island. They terraform to make an entire section of the island look like him. It's hilarious.

Lots of fun and silliness.

Wanted: Eiichiro Oda Before One Piece (Pixtagram Repost)

Wanted is a collection of single stories written by Eiichiro Oda before he developed One Piece. These include Wanted!, Kami kara Mirai no Present, Ikki Yakou, Monsters, and Romance Dawn. Monsters is the one I had already read before, including the anime adaptation from Netflix. The others, I had no familiarity with.

Overall, it was fun. From gunslingers to a traveling monk to one of the early precursors to One Piece itself, these stories were a lot of fun and had that Oda flair to them.

Fist of the North Star, Volume 15 (Viz Hardcover Edition)

Wow. Again. I feel I say that after reading EVERY volume of Fist of the North Star. Still valid.

This volume continues with Kaioh manipulating everyone. However, as Hyo and Kenshiro battle, secrets are revealed. Histories of Kenshiro, Hyo, Raoh, and Kaioh are revealed. It's a lot and so good.

Love is, once again, at the center.

The volume ends with a battle beginning between Kenshiro and Kaioh, Rin sent off with her memories erased. It's a lot.

Read the first chapter of Embers. The manga is about a delinquent teenage boy who after being stopped fighting by a teacher, is slowly taught how to play soccer.

Giving Haikyuu vibes, he creates a team around himself (similar to Hinata at the start of Haikyuu) even though he's really the only one interested.

The chapter ends with him entering high school going to what appears to be a powerhouse soccer school. I have a feeling he'll meet the players he played against in middle school from Chapter 1 when he gets there.

Short story - I'm sold on the premise. Quick and easy to follow. Interesting sports action. I'm also interested in the character. So, let's go.

What was also fun was between stories was short commentary from Oda about each one. I enjoyed his thoughts on these older one shots he developed.

Overall, enjoyed this collection. Glad I picked it up.

New Read - Fist of the North Star, Volume 15

Wow. Again. I feel I say that after reading EVERY volume of Fist of the North Star. However, it's still valid and true.

This volume continues with Kaioh manipulating everyone. However, as Hyo and Kenshiro have an epic battle, secrets are revealed. Histories of Kenshiro, Hyo, Raoh, and Kaioh are revealed. It's a lot of things all at once. And it's so good.

Love is, once again, at the center. Kaioh's love of children leading to her death. Kenshiro, Hyo, and Shachi's love both familial and romantic that has strengthened them.

The volume ends with a battle beginning between Kenshiro and Kaioh, Rin sent off with her memories erased. It's a lot.

Can't wait for Volume 16.

New Read - The Liminal Zone

The Liminal Zone is a collection of four short manga tales from the master of body horror and horror manga, Junji Ito. I picked it up from the library not that long ago and this marks my first manga read for 2025.

The four stories are Weeping Woman Way, Madonna, The Spirit Flow of Aokigahara, and Slumber. Each are wild and filled with the types of creepy scenes you'd expect out of a Junji Ito manga.

My favorite of the stories had to be Weeping Woman Way. In this one, a couple passes through a town and sees a woman supposedly hired to weep during a funeral. After passing by, the girl in the relationship cannot stop crying. They return back to that community to try to find out what caused her to cry so uncontrollably. It's filled with such wild body horror and weeping that it's hard to look away.

Each story is self contained and disconnected from the previous ones, which gives you an easy stop point between stories if you needed a break from the horror.

If you are a fan of horror manga, of course I recommend this collection. I am trying to be purposely vague about the stories, as they are worth experiencing. However, a warning there is violence, references to suicide, and verbal / physical abuse in this collection. So, be warned and be careful if that type of content is an issue for you.

New Read - Cats of the Louvre

I saw "Cats of the Louvre" mentioned on Mangagram a few times and the concept of cats living in the museum, the Louvre. I pretty much immediately ordered a copy of the manga upon reading the premise.

For the uninitiated - the premise is that the Louvre itself is part of a historic palace and cats had lived there during its days as a palace. The ancestors of those cats remained in the building and the grounds crew have kept them safe since. The story follows some folks who work on the grounds crew as well as the cats, who are occasionally anthropomorphized as they interact with each other.

A key fact you learn early on is that the main cat shown on the cover, has a power to interact with the paintings and can even leap into paintings themselves. This cat, who appears like a kitty despite its age, can "hear" the paintings.

As the story progresses, we learn that one of the grounds crew members' sisters could also claim to hear the paintings and one day, disappeared.

The cats are afraid of being caught by unsafe folks, a new tour guide is trying to help the grounds crewmember figure out if / where his sister may be hiding within the paintings. It's a well crafted, unexpected story with the art of the Louvre on display throughout.

I definitely would recommend it if the concept above sounds remotely interesting to you.

New Read - Fist of the North Star, Volume 14

Wow did this volume go in hard.

Things that happened: We met Kenshiro's biological brother; we found out that Kenshiro, Raoh, and Toki were born on the nation of Asura; we discover that back on Asura, there was a prophecy about the return of Raoh to save them.

It's a lot and it's amazing.

Buronson's story and Tetsuo Hara's art together just come together in such an amazing way that I could not stop until I finished the volume last night. I started and finished in one straight sitting...and I am so ready for Volume 15 to find out what happens next.

The volume ends with a bloodied Kenshiro being helped by Shachi and Kenshiro's biological brother, still not remembering who his brother is, and the love of his brother.

Kenshiro is the key to a power greater than Hokuto Shinken. However, the secret is locked in the mind of Kenshiro's brother. Only he can unlock it in Kenshiro.

Also, once again, love and emotion are discussed as a key to strength.

Anyway, I took one screenshot - and it's the reason Kenshiro shouldn't go visit Maryland. Swipe to understand my bad joke.

New Read - Animal Crossing: New Horizons Deserted Island Diary, Volume 7

Another new, silly volume of the Animal Crossing manga. The new volume dropped last week and I finished reading it over the weekend.

The new volume picks up where Volume 6 left off with a lot of custom homes being made via Happy Home Paradise. A lot of silly moments with individual villagers getting custom designed homes that matched their personalities.

Also, the author self inserted herself into one random chapter where she dressed like an Oni, which was fun.

If you are a gag manga fan that also likes Animal Crossing or are an Animal Crossing fan who likes gag manga (or any manga), definitely check it out.

A Venn diagram showing folks who like gag manga and folks who like Animal Crossing would have me sitting in the center, so I am down for more of this. Looking forward to the next volume of this family friendly, silly series.
