Julian Bata @jubiwerks.bsky.social · 15/01/2026Read thru the Stop!! Hibari-kun! manga online (wanna pick up those Peow reprints as they come out), and overall I liked it! Really saddened by no ending - apparently a 2010 edition had some closure added, but the scans I read featured no such conclusion. 3rd volume defs exudes author’s exhaustion. 110

Surviving the brutal world of TV anime in the '70s changed them and their style. They made classics like Heidi and Anne of Green Gables and found their own paths, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-pressu... 171430320
