shirahama is a paneling god

[hunter-rodrigez]

Not only that, but her attention to detail is also fucking insane.

For example, this is the page following this double spread.

And here is a comparison with the little bit we can see of the next page in the book drawn in the double spread:

She drew the next page in the picture book as the next page in the manga! How cool is that?!

And there are so many pages in this manga that look like they came straight out of an Art Nouveau picture book (very minor spoilers ahead):

There's no practical reason for Shirahama to do any of this other than the love of the game.

DOROHEDORO - SEASON 2

Creator: Q Hayashida Year: 2026 Studio: MAPPA

[manga-and-stuff]

The Coppersmith's Bride is a cute, wholesome, and funny little manga.

But when I read it, I can't help but feel like Shinzo Abe's ghost is looking over my shoulder while whispering, "Don't you want to get married at age 18? And then start a family in your tiny hometown where the average age is somewhere in the middle 50s while keeping a traditional Japanese craft alive? Doesn't this manga make that look reaaallly enticing??"

The dialogue in this series is so realistic, really helps you get more immersed in the story. Makio’s conversation with her ex feels so natural and you can feel how concerned she is about handling things with Asa correctly because she knows she’s battling depression. Oversleeping is a classic symptom of depression, so much is happening so quickly around Asa and she can’t process it so sleeping is probably the only thing she feels she can control and allows her to escape the madness.

Notice how Makio brings up “The smallest remark could change her life” which is a callback to the nasty things Asa’s mom told her before she died. Makio’s so sweet and cognizant of how crucial a time this is for her niece and wants to do things right. I respect her so much, she’s such a beautiful person inside and out.

"Journal with Witch (Ikoku Nikki)" TV Anime episode 1 stills

Air Date: January 4, 2026

Makio Kodai (35), a novelist, cannot bear to see her niece Asa (15) being passed around by relatives at the funeral of her sister and her husband, and decides to take her in on the spur of the moment. However, although she took her niece home, she came to her senses the next day and her natural shyness kicked in. Makio had forgotten how unsuitable she was to live with someone. Asa, on the other hand, is not shy and agrees to live with Maki, an "adult who is not like an adult," in an unusual but honest way. This is the story of when two polar opposite worlds awkwardly try to interact.

katie jane garside

[hunter-rodrigez]

Garside is also a musician who's been making fucking incredible music since the nineties

She was the frontwoman of the bands Daisy Chainsaw, QueenAdreena, and Ruby Throat. She also released a solo album called "Lullabies In A Glass Wilderness" under the name Lalleshwari.

She's currently active in a duo called "liar, flower" and their latest album was released like a month ago (December 2025).

Her music ranges from punk rock to calm and quiet a cappella, all the way to 18-minute-long experimental tracks.

Despite all that, she's not all that famous and more of a hidden gem.

Not sure I would call cross-breeding "getting domesticated by humans", but yeah, the other elves in dungeon meshi basically look like the "undomesticated" version.

It's been raining almost everyday in Sweden for a month and I haven't seen the sun this whole time either. I feel like Brush Buddy trapped in the water hat 😭😭😭 The only thing I have to look forward to is the Witch Hat Atelier anime coming out in 2026. The trailer is already so amazing! Who else is a fan of the manga?
