Hey there! Glad you could join me for another installment of my mostly-weekly doujinshi review series. This time around, I thought I’d go for a genre I haven’t touched on before. No, not boys’ love, I’ll leave that to the experts… The books I am going to introduce you to today […]
Another doujinshi review, in the same week? You bet! Here’s another gem that I got at Comitia. Okaeri by Hatobue Kurocha and Seta Okaeri is a collaboration between two artists, whose work comes together to form one book in a way I might have never experienced before. There’s no “writer” […]
Finally, I’m back to introducing you to doujinshi I enjoyed. Life has been busy, so it’s been two months again… Amefurashi by Torimura (circle: Daiouika) WARNING: This book is about sexual abuse of a child. If you’re squeamish about these things (and I don’t blame you if you are), please stop reading. […]
Happy New Year! I just realized I haven’t done a doujinshi review post in about 2 months. Life has been busy, but as I wrote in my previous post, I did attend Comitia 110 in November, and as always I got a few really nice books which I would like […]
As I mentioned last week, I helped out my friend Philip Tan in getting a book printed in time for International Manga Festival. I figured it might be interesting for doujinshi fans or aspiring creators to hear how it happened, so here’s a little writeup. With thousands of publications being printed […]
I just got done editing my friend Philip Tan’s first-ever doujinshi, Garan Guard, to be released at International Manga Festival (aka Kaigai Manga Festa) in Tokyo this weekend. 9 all-new story pages scripted and drawn by Philip, plus 21 old and new sketches and commissions, color cover, square bound, to […]

Another weekend, another self-published manga review. Make sure to check the doujinshi tag for previous installments! This time around, I am introducing one book from Comitia 109, plus one that I got at Comic Zin. I thought you might enjoy some relaxing reads to recover from last week’s Halloween special… 1. That is not […]
I know, I know. I’m late to the party. Halloween is not usually a big thing for me, since I’m from central Europe. But I made a trip to Roppongi on Friday to see the lifesized Patlabor Ingram (which was super cool, but unfortunately already getting prepped for transport and I […]
Another weekend, another self-published manga review. Make sure to check the doujinshi tag for previous installments! The doujinshi in this week’s post are not from Comitia, but actually from a store! I stopped by Comic Zin in Akihabara with a friend visiting from Canada this week, and of course I couldn’t […]
Another weekend, another batch of doujinshi I would like to introduce to you. Like the previous ones, all of these are completely original properties, not “fan fiction” type books. If you enjoy this, make sure to check out the previous reviews: 1, 2, 3 1. Remembrance by PLT (circle: i am […]
Continuing the series of reviews of books I got at Comitia 109, today I have another 2 doujinshi to introduce to you. Like the previous ones, all of these are completely original properties, not “fan fiction” type books. 1 Nikochuu Witch Kemuri by Totsuka Kodama (circle: Aramugi) This is an […]
As I mentioned in my last post, I got a ton of books at Comitia 109, and am still slowly working my way through them. Here’s a look at another couple of books from the batch. 1 Melissa by Mephisto (circle: Angraecum) Sadly couldn’t find the circle cut, they must […]
It’s been pretty much exactly a month since Comitia 109, but I haven’t really had the time to comb through my spoils from the show. I got a pretty good amount of stuff this time around, as you can see in my Instagram from just after the event: Woops, two of […]
Last week, I wrote about Comiket, Japan’s largest doujinshi market. Believe it or not, this week, a mere two weeks after Comiket, we’re having another similar event. It’s called Comitia, and unlike Comiket, this one is all about original books and items, no commercially available properties allowed! This year is […]
