Manga Ichiba 2026 Catalogue
I worked very hard on this catalogue so I don't really have much to say. My catalogue says it all.
TLDR; I will be bringing to The DoubleTree in San Jose where this is being held:
All chapters of Kacchan is a Fudanshi! With each purchase, you get a sticker. And if you buy the whole trilogy, you may opt to get a KiaF!Kacchan acrylic charm!
4 standalone comics/artbooks/compilations! We have NYT, now in print form; those BKDK + Hisaki comics with Behind the Scenes content; the last remaining copies of WSR; and a new one, ride shotgun! That's a very new one I've never made public on socials. It's toxic yuri TogaChako. In any case, unlike KiaF, these will never be printed again once they are sold out so if you want to collect, now's the time!
6 zines! 5 cute poetry zines I (and my pitiful but wonderful table assistant) will painstakingly handfold for you! The mystery zine is a surprise until Sunday as incentive for you to visit me! Just because I can!
Last but not least... an original project that I debuted in a raw but earnest state at LA Zinefest 2025, then finally tempered into a polished rock this year, complete with illustrations! This is a very belated (unplanned) installment to a series I've been writing and thinking about since I was a teenager in 2011 (and have not published yet, but trust that I will soon). You can learn more about it here. Unlike the other books, all purchases of this book will be donated to CHIRLA and WFM's Immigrant Rapid Response Fund after the event is over.
Hope to see you there at the DoubleTree this weekend for North America's first doujinshi market! It's truly a historical moment so if you're gonna be at Fanime to begin with, you really should stop by, not just at my table, but to everyone's tables! I've gotten the chance to sneak a peek at what people are bringing and oh... I'm personally so, so, so excited, I'm actually typing proper sentences. Hah.
