Miscellaneous things make a post

[oyceter]

1. I am lazy and do not feel like writing things up, even though I am super behind on sequential art posts. On the plus side, Bride of the Water God is out to volume 5 here, which really beats waiting another EIGHT MONTHS for Dark Horse to release v. 3 in the US. Also, I have copies of Umino Chica's new manga, Yoshinaga Fumi's new food manga, a Mizushiro Setona series I have never read, and more Nan Kongyuu books! Also also, I have found another manhua I like! This one is called Fried Chicken Princess (Ji Pai Gong Chu) and is all about a girl who starts a club to appreciate fried chicken (the Taiwan kind, like fried chicken steaks, heavily seasoned)! What other unlicensed stuff should I be keeping an eye out for here?


2. Who is going to Wiscon? Does anyone have panel ideas? I want to suggest another one on shoujo manga but I cannot think of one outside of something like "Shounen Bodies: Women's and girls' bodies in shounen manga" which is clearly not on shoujo. Also, I probably have not read enough shounen to be a good contributor.


3. Dunkin' Donuts is now in Taiwan, and they are copying Mister Donuts' round mochi-esque donuts! I would be annoyed, except this means I can get my tasty round mochi-esque donuts at more places now.


4. I cannot find the old place that sold egg cakes, but the new one nearby is just as good. Yay!

1. I think Natsume Yuujinchou by Midorikawa Yuki is worth looking into. =D

2. for shoujo manga... has a panel on reverse harem been done already? ^^;; That could potentially be interesting, I think.....

1. Thanks for the rec! I'll keep an eye out.

2. Oh huh! I don't think so, although we sort of touched on the prevalence of male characters in shoujo last year. That would still be interesting though.
