- 0:38just some some very exciting things in here and actually a
- 0:43handful of these already read through or have been reading.
- 0:47So, let's go ahead and just Dive Right In because the the other
- 0:51thing aside from just, you know, there's been a manga Hall, is
- 0:56the first manga Hall of the New year and it's also my birthday
- 1:00month because my birthday is January 6.
- 1:03And so I got a few of these back on my birthday and then you
- 1:06know, some some other kind of trickled in afterwards.
- 1:09But yeah so let's go ahead and just Dive Right into what am I
- 1:14picked up this month. All right, so one thing I'm
- 1:20doing a little bit different this month it's that I'm also
- 1:23uploading this manga Hall on to podcast Services made primarily
- 1:28because I have access to Spotify video so I figure I was like you
- 1:34know what? I'll give it a shot.
- 1:36You know, if if people like me doing that cool, you know, for
- 1:39those of y'all that might see this come to the podcast feed
- 1:43that aren't seeing the video, Whatever, apologies, you know,
- 1:47hey. Go check out on YouTube or
- 1:49whatever, but like I wanted it to try it because I'm I, okay, I
- 1:52have access to to do this on that platform.
- 1:55Let's experiment to see what happens.
- 1:57So any of them. So, first off one that I'm very
- 2:02happy to have added to my collection, is Which hat at
- 2:05layer Now this one, I have a very funny little story.
- 2:12So I got volumes 1 through 5 so I can see volume 1 2, 3, volume
- 2:274 and Volume 5. So just a quick little story,
- 2:33you know, for those of other might have heard on any of my
- 2:35other podcast episodes and stuff.
- 2:37So this is a series that's been all my to read list for little
- 2:42bit since since some people some very cool people don't follow
- 2:46online, you know, been talking about a bear eating and stuff
- 2:49whatever. And like the screenshots of
- 2:51stuff. I'm missing my man just looks
- 2:52really pretty. This is really interesting or
- 2:53whatever. So I was like, you know what,
- 2:56one of my goals for this year was to eventually get it.
- 3:00Once I get some other stuff. Well, here we are, beginning of
- 3:03the month, and I already have five of them.
- 3:05Now, the way that happened, Is I basically at a, I went to a
- 3:13local movie trading company, which honestly, like I knew that
- 3:19they had like a anime section but it never dawned on me to
- 3:22check and see if they had a manga section.
- 3:24Well, somebody always watching or something, whatever head
- 3:28mentions that it won by once, I was like, you know what, let me
- 3:30try it, and they had volumes 3 through 5.
- 3:36Pre-owned for like five bucks apiece on my okay I can't pass
- 3:43that up and when you look at them they look brand-new like
- 3:45somebody just bought them and then traded them in.
- 3:48So I was okay, I got three of them.
- 3:51Let me see and then one of my very awesome friends jesseman
- 3:57from epic manga book club. She had a extra copy of volume
- 4:01one that she was like, you know what, I'll send you that for
- 4:04your birthday present. So she sent me this and so I
- 4:08just had to hunt down volume 2 which for some reason Volume 2,
- 4:10or start out if it worked for a while because I do what I want
- 4:13to see one and then three through everything else so new.
- 4:17So yeah, so I finally picked up. All of those and I started
- 4:21reading which I've already done a review for volume 1.
- 4:25That's how much I love to like. I read it in one day did the
- 4:29review that night and stuff. And so I'll put a link to the to
- 4:35our little card or whatever you're watching on YouTube, the
- 4:38link to that, but I loved it. And I guess just for those are
- 4:42like, Robert, what are you talking about?
- 4:43So the synopsis for this is meet young, Coco, curious, and bright
- 4:48and desperate to learn how How Magics rot but which is keep
- 4:53their secrets hidden tight and which is Coco.
- 4:56Knows are born not taught then one day Coco spies Upon Our
- 5:01which as he prepares the charms for which she yearns and sees
- 5:07that like her skill with thread and Stitch.
- 5:10The truth is Magic, something she can learn.
- 5:13Now with this knowledge Coco starts to try to teach herself
- 5:17The Witches way with charms and yet Her aspirations.
- 5:20Go worry. Re as Coco's magic causes
- 5:25Grievous harm to set things, right?
- 5:27Young cocoa, leaves her home and sub against the tail with in
- 5:31this tone. So yeah.
- 5:33So the story follows young Coco, the character you see on the
- 5:37cover volume 1 as she begins her journey to learn to learn magic.
- 5:43And so I have really enjoyed this series.
- 5:48Hey Jess, like just that the word in general looks very nice.
- 5:53The art looks freaking beautiful.
- 5:56And yeah, I'm just really enjoying all the characters and
- 5:59stuff because it's just a really nicely Draw series.
- 6:03I like how detailed they go into the magic and all that stuff.
- 6:08So, so, yeah. So, that's Which hat till here.
- 6:13Another one that I got 44 for a birthday present, this is
- 6:19another one that I have on my list of stuff.
- 6:22I want to read this year because shout out to both Gemini manga
- 6:27as well as your by Heidi's Empire because both of them,
- 6:30they're also fellow manga YouTubers and they both read the
- 6:35series and they both enjoyed it and some bulk, I really want to
- 6:38get this in my collection and read it sometime this year so we
- 6:41can talk about it and so that is Ikigai me the ultimate limit.
- 6:46Now like I mentioned this is one I got from I got as a birthday
- 6:51present from from from good buddy of mine gooch. because
- 6:59this is what is very hard to find as you can tell because I
- 7:02have just Vol 4 but basically it kind of follows, I guess, the
- 7:09general premise of this world is that I guess in order to keep
- 7:15the population down or from getting too crazy, whatever they
- 7:19do, these things where basically people between the ages of I
- 7:25think it's 18 to 24 or something like that.
- 7:27Let me see real quick. Yeah, people the ages between 18
- 7:31to 24, they will basically the government were randomly, send
- 7:35them a letter basically saying, hey, you have 24 hours left to
- 7:38live and so the store kind of follows this, there's a guy who
- 7:43is a kagame who are people that deliver these these notes of?
- 7:47Hey, y'all got 24 hours and so, just kind of it's a
- 7:50psychological Thriller. The kind of deals with how
- 7:52people basically choose to spend their last 24 hours.
- 7:55And so, like I said, it's one that it it's labelled Order
- 7:58series and so on. Kind of hard to come by.
- 8:01So I definitely want to get my hands on all them and read it
- 8:03because hey, I like me some psychological thrillers, but
- 8:06very happy to have that as part of my collection.
- 8:08Thanks to my thanks to my good buddy, Gooch.
- 8:11Now these are the couple wants real quick.
- 8:13These are also a couple ones that I've also already read in
- 8:15the reviews for the first one is Daily report about my which
- 8:20Senpai and so this is kind of like a Shoujo kind of I guess I
- 8:25kind of like a romantic comedy series.
- 8:28They're basically just kind of follows his Two characters
- 8:30around and I'll just read a quick synopsis.
- 8:33So Miss Ono is a office drone with his own ups and downs at
- 8:36work but thankfully, he has he has an ally.
- 8:39It's empire. She's a coup who happens to be a
- 8:42witch. She's a coup is always ready to
- 8:44lend a hand to those in need, but Miss Ono thinks, she should
- 8:48take better care of herself since zipping around on a
- 8:51broomstick to run, errands can be quite stressful, is my Sonos
- 8:55app, for protective concern for shoes.
- 8:57For. She's okay driven by mirrors.
- 8:59For his for this flustered which or could it be more so yeah so
- 9:04yeah. So like I said, I already read
- 9:05this one or whatever it was, okay.
- 9:07Like the beginning of our feel like was kind of slow, but
- 9:11eventually kind of so story stuff happens and I'm kind of
- 9:15getting my attention and pull me through but but yeah but it's
- 9:19just a cute little series. Like I said not not top of my
- 9:22list but it was a fun quick little read.
- 9:25So check out my full review for that as well as well as this
- 9:29one. Succubus and hit man.
- 9:33Now this one, this one was a very really, really fun read.
- 9:38This is another one that I've also already read and reviewed
- 9:40for this month, but this is the synopsis for this one is a
- 9:43demonic deal high schooler gum. I'll show you, is a dead man,
- 9:49sort of the real shaurya is long gone, but his body lives on
- 9:54inhabited, by the soul of a boy who made a pact with a succubus
- 9:58named or are Molina. Anna in exchange for his
- 10:01Services, as her personal Hitman arm.
- 10:04Elena is helping him hunt down. The people, who brutally
- 10:08murdered him and his family. The path ahead is dark and
- 10:12deadly, but surely has got nothing left to lose.
- 10:14Not even his soul. So yeah.
- 10:16So like I said, this was this was a, this was a fun read
- 10:20because it was, you know, dark violent but also a little bit of
- 10:25sexiness sprinkled in there as well.
- 10:30Oh, look at that cutie there. But by a so that was a fun read,
- 10:39death of chicken review of that one.
- 10:42So these next handful have a little story behind these.
- 10:47So let's go over to the Jumbotron.
- 10:52So I had took a little trip to Half Price Books cuz it was my
- 10:57money, says birthday a couple weeks ago.
- 10:59So once again, happy birthday to my lease Lydia 2015, who lured,
- 11:0414, but she is also a manga reader.
- 11:09So I wanted her, I was, I was like, you know what?
- 11:12Uncle Roberts got to do his duty.
- 11:14And get his baby girl, his niece some manga.
- 11:19So one of those I got was I got her a spot family, volume 1,
- 11:23come, he can't communicate volume 1 as well as bungo stray.
- 11:28Dogs Beast, volume 1. Now, this might seem like a
- 11:32weird mix of stuff, whatever. But with the bungle stray dogs,
- 11:36she is a fan of like, kind of like, like a little bit like
- 11:39more darker tone stuff as well. So, you know what, I've enjoyed
- 11:43the Bungle stray, dog series. And so I figure, I was like, you
- 11:45know what, I'll give this a shot because I can say it happened to
- 11:48be there so I was like, you know, what can't pass that up,
- 11:53spot family? Y'all know how much y'all is my
- 11:56podcast? How much I love and talk about
- 11:58spot family and just a quick synopsis for anybody to mind.
- 12:00I know. So spot family.
- 12:01Basically follows the main character whose code name is
- 12:05light and he's a spy and so basically as part of a mission
- 12:08that he's on, he has to he has to put together this fake family
- 12:13too. Infiltrate this school as.
- 12:15But what he doesn't know is that the wife, you recruits, she
- 12:19secretly an assassin and the daughter that they adopt she is
- 12:23secretly a telepath as so, it's kind of like, it's like a fun
- 12:27kind of like comedy action series, which is getting an
- 12:32anime in the spring season. So, in March of 2020, to make
- 12:36sure to check that out. And be the lookout for that bass
- 12:37by family's very awesome. And then call me, can't
- 12:41communicate. That's about a young lady who
- 12:44named call me, who can't. She basically has really bad
- 12:47eggs and anxiety. So much to the point to where
- 12:51is, she has trouble speaking and so that when they had there's a
- 12:54there's a anime series for that already on Netflix, there's one
- 12:57season so far and season 2, if that is also coming out in
- 13:00March. So so yeah, so one of the check,
- 13:03I'll get those for her. Give her something new, try out,
- 13:05or whatever. So, got heard that as well as I
- 13:09also came across days of fast, volumes 1 & 2.
- 13:17And so this is one that I just saw at Barnes & Nobles for the
- 13:20first time like a month or so ago and it looked interesting.
- 13:23So the synopsis for this one is kanade sorcerer has never been
- 13:27to a musical festival before a music festival before but when
- 13:31her friend or Top O Tahoe, Larry's her along with the
- 13:36promise that her favorite band will be playing.
- 13:39She finds herself having more fun than she ever imagined.
- 13:43And if one small show is enough to to hook her, what might a
- 13:47huge overnight event at a major venue be like as kind of a dives
- 13:52into a whole new world of rocking out where her life ever
- 13:55be the same. So they just said, I just sounds
- 13:58like a fun adventure, just these people consider different music
- 14:01festivals and stuff so Yeah, so I'm looking forward to checking
- 14:06that out. Another one.
- 14:08I picked up from that hat from that same Half Price Books was
- 14:11Beauty And The Feast vol 1. So this one, the synopsis for
- 14:15this one is when her husband passed away, Shu KU yeah,
- 14:23Giacomo lost her appetite for life and with it her Love of
- 14:27Cooking, but her neighbor show. Hey Yamato brings an to show Co

- 14:46revolve around her secret hobby of feeding show.
- 14:49Hey well Shu KU ReDiscover, her happiness, the happiness life
- 14:54has to offer. So this just sounds like just
- 14:56like a good wholesome time. So yeah, picked it up.
- 15:03And that was it for like, for like to fight the other secret
- 15:07Uncle shopping trip. They actually turn into a a pick
- 15:12up stuff for myself, temperature by, it happens.
- 15:14Sometimes especially with with stuff like that.
- 15:18So there's next one which once again, shout out to Gemini

- 15:27volume one. Now, this one is written by Her
- 15:34omo arakawa, which this is the same Creator as Full Metal
- 15:42Alchemist. So Gemini manga, when we met him
- 15:46first met months ago, one of the first things he ever mentioned
- 15:50to me was just like, hey, you gotta read, I said you're a big

- 15:59Whatever you got to check out Legends of harsh line.

- 16:11But so for this one, in the Preposterous Kingdom of Perry's
- 16:16of pars lies, the Royal capital of X.
- 16:20But batana, a city of Splendor and wander ruled by a undefeated
- 16:26and fearsome king or a Drago's drag arose.
- 16:31Our Salon is the young and He is Prince of pars who despite his
- 16:35best efforts doesn't seem to have what it takes to be a
- 16:38proper King, like his father at the age of 14.
- 16:41Our Salon goes to his first battle and loses everything as
- 16:44the blood-soaked midst of War, gives way to scorching Flames
- 16:49bringing him to face the demise of his once glorious Kingdom.
- 16:53However, it is our slides Destiny to be ruler.
- 16:57And despite the trials and faced him, he must now embark on a
- 17:00journey to reclaim his Fallen Kingdom.
- 17:02I'm sorry. I so very excited to check out
- 17:05to check out that one. And the last two photo month.
- 17:10As yeah, I've known since I did my first very first manga haul.
- 17:14My collection started with villain Saga and twenty Century,
- 17:18boys. And it continues with that
- 17:20again. So my awesomely awesome wife got
- 17:25me. Vol 8 of 20th century boys.
- 17:30Perfect addition for my birthday so I got this added to my
- 17:33collection so and Villa Saga book 12.
- 17:42Look at this beautiful blue. Y'all know, blue is my favorite
- 17:46color. So this is this is quite a treat
- 17:50because obviously I didn't know I didn't even know that this was
- 17:51going to be coming out anytime soon until some friends of mine
- 17:55back when it came out like at, like around close to Christmas
- 17:57time. Whatever in December was
- 17:59supposed to put your iron link to some stuff with some stuff I
- 18:01picked up this month or whatever.
- 18:03And I saw that blue and I was like wait is because of the
- 18:07style eyes are like the symbols of the problems like before
- 18:09Davis other words, I was like, it's that van The Saga and it
- 18:14was my are. So now I have collected all the
- 18:19volumes of in The Saga past where the anime stopped or were
- 18:23they were season 1 ended. So I now have books 5 through
- 18:2612. So, yeah, so whenever I give it
- 18:29is a fully dive back into that soon, be on the lookout.
- 18:32So, but yeah. But that, that is it for this
- 18:35month and I feel like, I recorded way longer than I
- 18:38intended by It is what it is but yeah, some more awesome manga to
- 18:45check out and one I will give a shout out to and this is rare
- 18:50but I'm giving a shout-out to only because there is no
- 18:53physical, officially translated English copies of this and that
- 18:58is a manga series that I read this month called my home hero.
- 19:02so, so my home hero, it is a manga that I came across from,
- 19:10there's a manga page or follow on Twitter, that happened to
- 19:14talk about the, the latest volume that came out in Japan.
- 19:18And so when I saw that cover of things, like volume 16 or 17 and
- 19:23I was like, that looks interesting.
- 19:24And people in the comments was like, yo, this, this series is
- 19:27dope, that are done. So, I looked into it and I read
- 19:30the first part of the series, which was chapters like 1348,
- 19:35Long story short, the story follows a the MC.
- 19:40He's a, he's a dad. He's like just his day job is
- 19:43just as a salary man. And so basically, long story
- 19:47short, his college, his daughter who's in, who just went off to
- 19:51college, whatever she ends up, getting threatened by this guy
- 19:55who's part of like a gang or a Syndicate or whatever.
- 19:58And so basically the dad's things happen and the day is up
- 20:04killing the guy. To protect the daughter.
- 20:06And so the serious kind of follows the dad and then the mom
- 20:11working together to cover up the murder.
- 20:13While also trying to like keep normal life going.
- 20:17So it's like a really good psychological Thriller because
- 20:20like I said, it's just like a normal dad, trying to protect
- 20:22his family, but also starting to get wrapped up in this Syndicate
- 20:26organization, who is like, who were like, hey, what happened to
- 20:29the guy and edited, uh, last place.
- 20:32He was saying, was that your daughter's apartment and all
- 20:34this stuff, whatever? So, But I just want to give that
- 20:36a shot. I could like I said, it's not a
- 20:38pickup per se but it's one that I did.
- 20:42I read this month and I like super loved and enjoyed my new.
