Mkay the Nakiris being able to burst out of their clothes with good food is fine and dandy (chalk it up to weird Shonen manga things) but the ability to give the clothes bursting ability is too much!

I’d like to think Chef Shinomiya is part of the Shinomiya group from Love is War because that seems like fun in my head

Y'all I've read SO MUCH MANGA in the last few days/weeks/months

I’m feeling pure joy now that I see this as an Ouran High School Host Club story. I’m sorry but the types?? So Ouran coded! The managers? That’s Renge. They’re more diverse and queer Ouran; prove me wrong

This books is very Ouran High School Host Club coded

“‘It’s not always empty to go looking for the place we belong. […] Sometimes we need to make that place.’” Hits so hard

This book is strange. It has plot and plot progression, but it feels like nothing has happened

We’ve waited so long for this match up!!! I’m literally gonna cry

Mkay question answered. There is at least one Black witch

Hold on. Are there any POC witches in this book??

Finally I figure out who these twins are! I’ve seen them everywhere when I was vaguely aware that the manga and anime were still going after I fell out of the anime scene

Not gonna lie, I was worried about this Shiratorizawa versus Karasuno match (almost said battle oop). I hadn’t seen the anime version, so I wasn’t sure what was going to happen

Not gonna lie, I’m tearing up a bit. Yamaguchiiii

There’s something achingly beautiful about this book. I don’t care about the romance; I care about the discussions of happiness, of struggling to be the peacekeeper, of feeling like a stranger in your family, of drifting apart from close friends. All of the adult themes resonate with me, even if the adult (re romance) ones don’t

I don’t know why but this book makes me want to cradle someone’s face in my hands and look at them lovingly
Says the very single person

If Hannah was going to use the massage oil the way I think she was, she shouldn’t. Don’t stick things like massage oil inside your vagina

I am SO hyped! How does this series make me so hyped!??

I’m SO excited to read this! It was one of my favorite anime, so I can’t wait to read how the story ends

There really are a ton of bowl places near big office complexes

Mkay it’s a bit weird knowing that Hugo and Lucy crossed paths when she was a kiddo and she was starstruck by him. The age gap isn’t horrible (I think it’s 8 years) but it still feels a bit weird knowing that they met and they might have a romance as adults. Sits weird

I always have weird feelings about books set in college. Do I miss college? Do I not miss college? Complicated

I don’t know if I’m reading into things but a character with strong moral values, a lack of understanding of how to Social sounds like autism coded to me

It’s a really weird decision to compare someone who likes BL to bisexual and asexual characters

I kind of love getting back into manga. I've been more of an anime person, but since I barely watch anything that's not a YouTube video essay, I've been devouring manga instead. I can find out what happens when the anime is dropped (cough cough Noragami cough cough). This is such a fun experience

Hm now I wonder who would have been editor in chief at my school paper if we voted. I never really noticed that it was the advisor who picked the roles

While I love a good Persona 5 moment, part of me wants the prep school blackjack ring story

It's fun scrolling through your read shelf all the way back to when you joined Goodreads eons (13 years) ago

WHOOPS. Not me reading so much manga that I hit my 2024 goal by February

I’m almost halfway through this book and there’s hasn’t been any murder yet. Where is the murder??

I need a map of these characters and their relationships
