Houseki no Kuni ended after a decade +… wow… it’s time to read (´･ω･`)

(after i write out my delayed recommendations hhh)

// not a recommendation

The hardest manga to recommend are the ones that have like, 10 chapters translated and are ongoing. Like I’ve been thinking about Black Night Parade Vol.2 cliffhanger for a week straight. I wait to read 2 chapters a day for Crescent Moon Marching. Potion Witch just got official.

By the way, I did not know Kim Carnby could write bad psychological thriller but it does exist in the form of Gorgon. (By the way, author of Bastard, Sweet Home, Shotgun Boy etc).

Because I love the premise of Gorgon the most out of his works but it ends up being the most half-baked 25 chapters of a psychological thriller. No that’s precisely the issue, that it’s lacking with only 25 chs and a breakneck pace that relies on the viewer pretending there’s enough weight and development on the events unfolding.

The concept of someone being able to kill with mutual eye contact (on purpose or by accident), his act of feigning blindness, the subsequent consequences of doing that or being the way he is—a Gorgon indeed. Someone steal the concept to make a better story out of it.

This is all to say I thought “wow a Kim Carnby work no one is talking about?” intending in my Wednesday pick. But sometimes there’s a reason why people don’t talk about some stories I suppose.
