Thoughts from the mangaka about their manga, lives, and other random things.
Sakamoto Days
Yuto Suzuki
I’m addicted to liver and chives lately. I think my sense of taste has changed—I even like bitter melon now.
Ichi the Witch
Shiro Usazaki
I have never figured out the timing for changing my pen tip from the days I was drawing traditional.
Nue’s Exorcist
Kota Kawae
That feeling of excitement over how the weather is becoming comfortable—I’m feeling that right now.
Akane-banashi
Yuki Suenaga
I watched The Queen of Villains. The wrestling scenes were amazing. Loved it!
One Piece
Eiichiro Oda
To relax after finishing the chapter, I started watching the morning drama show Omusubi. Love their catchphrase “Taberi!” It’s so cheerful!
The Elusive Samurai
Yusei Matsui
I just now realized the Kinmokusei classic song “Saraba” is about walking home in the morning. Who are they singing about…?
Undead Unluck
Yoshifumi Tozuka
I talked to the owner of the cafe about manga during closing time. It made me once again realize that manga is a wonderful thing.
Blue Box
Kouji Miura
My physical therapist was telling me that my legs fidgeting is good for my health, so I’m pounding the ground at home.
Hakutaku
Kouki Ishikawa
They’re doing Ponpoko24 this year once again! Yay! Can’t wait! This rocks!!!!
Mission: Yozakura Family
Hitsuji Gondaira
I got a gyroscope toy for my birthday. That’s one of the best toys in the world.
Shinobi Undercover
Ippon Takegushi
I’m not sure at what level of pain I’m supposed to raise my hand at the dentist. It hurt.
Hima-Ten!
Genki Ono
I’m drinking the yuzu and citrus tea at Starbucks every day. It’s perfect and kind on my tummy.
Kagurabachi
Takeru Hokazono
The Dandadan opening song is awesome! I love everything about “Otonoke,” including the cover design.
Hunter x Hunter
Yoshihiro Togashi
Sailor Moon Musical by Nogizaka, Hunter x Hunter, Romeo and Juliet, The Rose of Versailles… Theater has provided me so much energy.
Me & Roboco
Shuhei Miyazaki
I created this chapter while remembering all the trials I had to overcome to submit my storyboards!
Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi
Shoichi Usui
I found a delicious karaage-bento place in my neighborhood. Lucky!!
WITCH WATCH
Kenta Shinohara
I hope the guy who always tosses an empty black coffee can in front of my house gets caught in the rain and soaked.
Astro Royale
Ken Wakui
Volume 2 just came out in Japan, and I’m already hard at work on volume 3. So fast!
Kill Blue
Tadatoshi Fujimaki
We’re playing Bakido on heavy rotation at the studio. Sometimes something similar gets snuck into the background art.
Super Psychic Policeman Chojo
Shun Numa
After finishing the chapter, I checked my temperature, and it was over 100. I need to get stronger.
Yokai Buster Murakami
Daiki Ihara
Thank you for reading every week, Grandma! I love the sweets you send me from the countryside!
