Awakening from my vtuber-imposed Twitter slumber to write up another thread on this months issue of Afternoon! (Wonāt actually start until Iām done with work though). Medalist on this months cover
First volume out now!

Ended up starting later than I wouldāve liked after playing a bit of Mario 64 but now Iām on this. Fantastic lead color page here as Inori takes to the ice for her first performance.
Inori fails to land any of her jumps during warmups due to pre-performance jitters, but after Tsukasa tells her itās ok to fall so long as she gets up with a smile, she steps up her game and upgrades her final flying sit spin into a broken leg spin live. Great performance!
Front illustration for this monthās Blue Period chapter. Volume 8 on sale now! (Currently waiting for my special edition to come in
)

New artist Konatsu Ono has been introduced and she looks to play a big role in these next few chapters (someday Iāll be able to talk about the latest chapters of Blue Period without feeling bad about spoiling people.....)
Iāll get around to Raise wa Tanin ga Ii in the near future but until then weāve got Tomodachi toshite Daisuki, whose first volume is set to release next month.
Mayuri musters up the courage to talk to Sanako after the student council election and though Mayuriās friends donāt get along especially well with Sanako, they see that Mayuri actually wants to be friends with Sanako; Mayuri then ends up joining the student council.
The pain train doesnāt stop with this latest chapter of Houseki no Kuni. A very quick read just like the past few chapters. Kongou in the mud.
Iām not reading Historie (yet) but something tells me that these backgrounds might be redone when the volume release comes around...
New school term has started in Hashikko Ensemble (Volume 5 out now!). The school cultural festival is coming up and a new acapella āclubā has popped up to rival the choir club. Will be interesting to see how they compare to each other.
