New Manga Read - My Sister, The Cat (Volume 2-3)

This weekend, my oldest took the SAT's and I ended up waiting for him at the local library near the testing center. So, I finished up reading My Sister, The Cat.

It does not disappoint in a very cute story of found family with a human living with a cat family.

I don't know what else to say. It's a very cute story about family and sibling dynamics.

If that sounds cool to you, feel free to check it out.

New Manga Read - My Sister, The Cat (Volume 1)

At the library with my youngest, when she found this. The premise? After a teenage boy's Mother dies, he's taken in by an all cat family, the Mom of whom was close friends with his late mother, as he finishes high school. Of note, he is the only human in the household.

The entire first volume introduces us to Nekota, the teen boy, and his little cat sister Neneko.

It's very cute story with a much older sibling and a much younger sibling dynamic. Plus cute cats.

It's very cute and sweet, which is all it needs to be.

New Manga Read - Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back - Evolution (Series)

Did you watch Pokémon: The First Movie? Did you watch the mediocre all CG remake from 2019? This manga is kind of a tie in to the remake from 2019.

The manga tells the story of Mewtwo. The origin of Mewtwo, him turning to Team Rocket for a while, then going off on his own. Also, the power of friendship saving the day.

I loved the original movie, so I was excited for a manga adaptation. It...was okay.

New Read - Neon Genesis Evangelion, Omnibus 5 (Volumes 13-14)

Wow. Okay, so that's the end of Evangelion.

This is the final volume of the manga and a content warning, there's a lot of non-sexualized nudity that mirrors that which was shown in the anime.

But the ending. It's...different.

Shinji makes a different choice at the end, the world ends differently and honestly, I like this ending better than the original End of Evangelion movie ending.

All in all, I'm glad I read the manga. Glad I got into this series.

New Read - Somali and the Forest Spirit, Volume 4

Another amazing volume. This one finishes up their encounter with Uzoi and Haitora. It's an incredible moment as Haitora reveals his own past, what he went through, and how he found Uzoi. And a tale of forgiveness.

As they continue on their quest, we run into Shizuno and Yabashira again, who appear to have figured out what Somali is. Not to harm her, but Shizuno wants to understand why the Golem is willing to go to such lengths for her.

It's a great volme and...ugh, I need volume 5 to drop physically already.

New Read - Kirby Manga Mania, Volume 8

As always, the Kirby manga is so incredibly!

For those who don't know, the Kirby manga is a gag, slice of life manga set in the Dreamlands with Kirby, King Dedede, and assorted other characters from the games getting into silly situations.

This volume is no different. So goofy, so silly, so weird.

My favorite moment was Kirby losing it when he can't his disposable chopsticks don't cleanly snap.

Anyway, if you like goofy gag manga with Kirby characters, check it out. If not, wellp...not for you.

New Read - Mechanical Buddy Universe (Single Volume)

Mechanical Buddy Universe is a manga volume that is really a series of vignettes.

This entire volume sets up a world setting in a post-war world where androids exist and fought in numerous combat roles. The story follows a feminine presenting android who raised a human infant they found abandoned. However, most of the stories are set AFTER the baby is an adult, not really showing the "robot raising a human" story I was expecting.

I was expecting something like Somali and the Forest Spirit. What I got was...not that.
