the first 2 episodes were hilarious and I can tell this show is gonna be one of those sleeper comedy anime hits

The most sobering yet important panel I attended all weekend of Anime NYC was one on censorship, both "hard censorship" and "soft censorship," with discussions of our current political climate along with why US publishers might decide the things that they do.

CHIHAYAFURU FANS:
I was able to talk with Kodansha representatives about the possibility of Chihayafuru in print.

Obviously I couldn't get an actual answer on that but I did also ask about the fan side and what we can do to up the chances on this happening.

Flopped on the couch with a seltzer and a bar of chocolate rn 🙂‍↕️

YouTube video by Sarah Moon AI Could Never Translate This Anime (feat. Chihayafuru)

we desperately need fans to:

A. know that AI localization will absolutely ruin their favorite manga, anime, games, and books

B. fan outrage over AI use is one of the best and only ways we can fight back.

most loc professionals are freelance. we're not union. we have no power.

Fans must speak up.

Hey lads—

You have about 36 hours to support this. It’s cool to see any anthologies in English but particularly Galette.

with those eyebrows? I get it 🙂‍↕️

The importance in calling out even the most casual racism in the art and comics community is to make it clear that stuff isn’t welcome and if you’re okay peddling that hateful stuff around here, you’re not welcome either and you should feel uncomfortable

NEW MANGA ANNOUNCEMENT: Love Bullet

You've asked for it and we GOT IT! The highly anticipated GL manga from inee that exploded with support last year is coming out in English print! Get ready for love-infused shootouts in a world where a cupid's tools aren't a bow and arrow—it's guns!

Queer Liberation Library Queer Liberation Library (QLL) is fighting to build a vibrant, flourishing queer future by connecting LGBTQ+ people with literature, information, and resources that celebrate the unique and empowering...

Hey you. Yes you. Do you like to read. Do you like e-books. Maybe queer books even. Well have I got a proposition for you: get a Queer Liberation Library card so you can check out e-books on Libby. It is free!!! The only requirement is a US mailing address

It bears repeating that 5calls.org makes it incredibly easy to contact your reps. They give you the phone numbers, a script to read, and a run down of what is happening with each issue. I just called my senators in my pjs half awake and I'll probably do it some more later

Sumiko Arai loves Toni & Shelby from the Wilds. She listens to a lot of Clairo. Loves creating yuri & reading/watching wlw media in general. No one can ever make me hate her she got lucky with green yuri GOOD FOR HER. i also hope she tries a long form manga next though.

I couldn’t decide on which one I wanted the most so I got both. You should read/watch Natsume’s Book of Friends.

AHHH FORGOT IT WAS COMING OUT. TIME TO LISTEN

Gonna go see it again today

Love this one so much. I sing Colleen's praises a lot for the fact that they do so much for western shoujo fans, but even more than that, the highlighting of the actual *magazines* these series hail from is so special and unique.

more of just casually wiping things off your rival's face

a digital illustration featuring young chihaya, taichi and arata from chihayafuru. it uses a color scheme of turquoise, greens, blues, yellows and oranges. in the center, the three are playing karuta together, based on the scene before arata leaves the city. chihaya is excited by the card she got; arata gives her a firm thumbs up; taichi in the middle of laughter. the background depicts the backs of the trio wearing their “team chihayafuru” shirts, slightly faded out. dotted lines that represent each of the character sprawl out throughout the piece, eventually intersecting into one at the very center — karuta.

i don't want it to ever end!
