Posted on June 28, 2007 by Brigid Alverson

    Congrats on reaching 1000 posts! I’m always grateful for your comprehensive and enlightening coverage of the manga scene! It’s certainly opened my eyes to a lot of things that I’d otherwise have overlooked.

    (…and girly manga for men sounds great to me! I’m sometimes accused of drawing in a more shoujo-centric manner, it’s definitely within my tastes).
