Carl Horn speaks; Genshiken returns (no, these two items are not related)

Legendary Dark Horse editor Carl Horn guests on the ANNCast this week. I haven’t had time to listen to the podcast yet, but I have heard Carl speak, and I would say this is well worth a listen.

Kodansha Comics will publish the Genshiken sequel Genshiken: Second Season beginning in September, and they will start publishing the first Genshiken in omnibus editions in May.

Three Steps Over Japan takes a look at Weekly Shonen Magazine.

News from Japan: Shinobi Life will come to an end in the April issue of Gekkan Princess, with a spinoff chapter appearing in the May issue. The 13th and final volume of the series will be out this summer.

Reviews: Ash Brown covers the past week’s manga reading at Experiments in Manga.
