Honestly, I don’t care who either of them end up with (I’m not sure) or if their relationship is somewhat concerning since it’s enveloped with a good amount of trauma, I will be shipping them. 😤

Agents of the four seasons anime is out! What a beautiful first episode with magical animation & an outline for an intriguing story! I’ve only had the chance to read some of the manga so I’m ready to see more of this story unfold! The characters, plot, & world are captivating!

OMG episode 13 of Tamon’s B-side was SO AMAZING!!! I loved the craziness! I NEED a season 2!!! & fyi, I will NOT take ANYONE blaming the fans if it doesn’t get announced soon. It’s just wrong and disrespectful. The amount of love and attention this anime has gotten is insane!

You see, I was trying to understand the Franchela haters because I’d probably be mad if they changed my favorite manga in the anime, BUT Bridgeton was never that faithful AND if they changed my fav ship into lesbians I would probably eat that up so… 🤭

We're still working hard on the Akatsuki no Yona Gaiden chapter! It officially released in Japan today, so be careful of spoilers. We expect to release it either tomorrow (Friday) or Saturday! I know a lot of people are very excited about this chapter, so until then, here's the color page!

In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram

User @backintimeag:
The text “Kirsten will be happy when ICE gets the fuck out of Minnesota” over a picture of 1850s immigrant and Minnesota-dwelling doll character Kirsten Larson in the snow.

“YOTD could’ve been shonen” While technically that’s possible, YOTD is a quintessential shojo manga. The action, adventure, fantasy, romantic side plot, character depth, politics, art, etc feel reminiscent of prior shojo series in the best way. Being for girls allowed for its many amazing qualities

Y’all the first episode was actually AMAZING! Obviously I read the manga so I already love this series, but the animation, the comedy so on point, the songs & dance?!?!? We do not get adaptations like this often… oh I am SOOOOO EXCITED you don’t even know! I’m so happy!

This moment with Talas always hits me! I truly love her character & despite the hardships to come it’s wonderful seeing her explore & go after who she wants after all the loss she went through. She shows so much kindness, determination, resourcefulness, strength & devotion!

I finally decided to read the Twelve Kingdoms novels, & it’s amazing! The audiobook too! The anime is one of my favorites & is accurate to the novels so far (as of Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Sea, Part 1) except the novel lacks Asano & Sugimoto is a minor very character. -

Another phenomenal manga, Namida Ame to Serenade, has ended… This story quickly became one of my favorites! I loved so many characters, the complex & deep backstories, the plot in itself, & all of the intense yearning! I just realized I’ve been reading this manga for 5 years! Time really flew by!

Emma 🍉 cr: Land of the Lustrous @interestingishfae.bsky.social · 23/12/2025

My four favorite YOTD characters if I HAD to choose! I’m obviously OBSESSED with a lot of them, especially the HHB members (LOVE Gija, Shin-ah, Jae-ha, & Ao) & the other female characters, but YONA, Soo-won, Zeno, and Yoon just have a special place in my heart & they’re just so interesting to me!

Emma 🍉 cr: Land of the Lustrous @interestingishfae.bsky.social · 21/12/2025

In a way, many YOTD characters ended up back where they started, despite that so much has changed. They have new knowledge, a better understanding of themselves & each other, are free from a cycle of reincarnation, a kingdom with safer & happier citizens, & a new family they can always return to.

A lil edit for YOTD’s final chapter These characters created a better home for Kouka citizens (and others too) while creating a found family! Whatever they do in the future they will always find a home w/each other & be a family! Ofc some relationships are still repairing but that takes time❤️‍🩹

YOTD’s final chapter came out… I am truly satisfied with that last chapter but I’m still happy we’ll get a bonus one in February. Seeing the dragons go on their own paths was kinda bittersweet but I’m glad & I know they’ll definitely meet again! (More with my initial thoughts below)

YOTD 273 • YOTD is forever about community and how we need to rely on others to not just survive, but truly live! I always love to see them come back together & protect each other! It’s interesting to see how Soowon & even a DRAGON GOD is now a part of that! ❤️‍🩹

YOTD 272 Yona has a hard road ahead of her… After this will she have to take charge as the ruler of Kouka while Soowon heals? Isn’t the war still going on & so much was destroyed?! With all of that she’ll try to help the dragons & bring Hak back! Luckily community -

YOTD 272 Shin-ah yelling for help?! This is SERIOUS! Shin-ah really is a sweetheart, all of these dragons are. They’ve lost their eyesight, limbs, or their bodies are completely different, but they have the time to help each other & work to stay calm. What Shin-ah said to Yona was so needed ❤️‍🩹

Took a break from working on YOTD lookups to work on my icon who can hear lies 🥁🥁🥁 Kanoko from Usotoki Rhetoric!!! Gosh she was hard! Her glasses? That was a struggle. Her outfit? I based it off the 1st volume & it’s a lil intricate 😭 I think she turned out nice tho! (If you know her you’re iconic)

the 1st episode of This Monster Wants To Eat Me was honestly soooo good. I’m shocked that the animation not only looked pretty but it stuck pretty closely to the manga. I like the VA’s performance for Hinako, somber & solemn with underlying hints of sadness

Saying you refuse to read shojosei is also saying you refuse to read ANY manga aimed for women/girls. If you can’t recognize at least a tinge of misogyny there, you should think a bit deeper. If you don’t like certain genres, cool, but shojo’s diverse! Give some a try!

I really do wish Girl Crush was under shojo beat (especially since it’s not under anything special like VIZ signature) because now people are telling me it’s not shoujo because it’s not under shojo beat…

Oh wow… I was not prepared for that metaphor… their mother set them up to be devoured by wolves in exchange for stardom… seeing that they weren’t wolves at all hit me hard. I’m glad they are getting a second chance at life.

Their relationship & deep attachment is SO interesting! I know it’s not that healthy at the moment, but that’s what makes them so intriguing & the fact that they might not end up together is kinda painful… But whether they end up platonic or romantic, I love it! They have such a deep & complex bond!
