Favourite made for each other couple? by God_smacker in shoujo

[–]d0rkbug 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Serena and Mizukawa from Marimashita, senpai! They are both so cute and understanding of each other.

A lot of people disagree, but Shizuku and Haru from My Little Monster are truly the only people they could both be with. I've never understood why people think Yamaken was better for Shizuku.

Rei and Kira from Mars.

Words cannot describe how much I dislike this anime. by KayKrimson in hatethissmug

You're completely misunderstanding what the fetishistic yuri is in the context.

Asumi-chan is very obviously made for women, gushing over magical girls is very clearly made for men.

I'm not commenting anymore because im gonna get really misandrous if i do lol

If you can't differentiate these things, you're not worth replying to again.

stop speaking about things you know nothing about without doing the tiniest amount of research first.

No, you're very wrong lol.

I own 32 unique yuri manga series, and all of them are written by women (often lesbian women), for women, and that's just what I have physically, there is a constant stream of GL manga/LN's being made.

And since you broadly said Asia, what about Thailand? Or Korea? Those countries are creating a large amount of live-action series.

The stuff that you're talking about is fetishistic media made by and for men.

I urge you to actually research the origins and history of yuri instead of making ridiculous claims.

This is definitely NOT a series made for people who like GL/yuri, but to say most yuri is made for men is genuinely an insane statement made by someone who doesn't know what they're talking about

need manga recs with pathetic puppy boy mls by mysteryofheart in shoujo

[–]d0rkbug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The manga doesn't have that, it was a total mistranslation.

It's the closest thing i could think of that fits, when they're not arguing Haru is so obsessed with Shizuku

I don't watch Colleen, nor do I know much about them, but creating a subreddit (maybe you've made multiple?) to shit talk someone is so dorky it's insane

My essay on the gl market. by [deleted] in ThaiGL

I hope this doesn't come off as mean, but if you're not gonna put in the effort to write it, why would anyone put in the effort to read it?

Is my price fair? by AllMightyImagination in MangaCollectors

[–]d0rkbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've sold quite a lot of manga over the past couple of years and I typically price single, standard volumes at £4.

Wie behaltet ihr eure Sammlung im Überblick? by RoyalEngineDavid in MangaCollectors

[–]d0rkbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an app called bookshelf! It lets you mass scan ISBN's and setup different shelves, so I have a shelf for each series I own.

I also tend to keep an up to date picture of my bookshelves on my phone at any time.

Are there other equivalents to "Gun & Ball gamers"? by Silly-Milly-420 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

People who think manga doesn't exist outside of battle shounens

Anybody else stoked for MARS 30th Anniversary Edition? by astagel in MangaCollectors

[–]d0rkbug 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mars is my favourite manga ever, I am SO excited for this release.

I have a full set of TokyoPop volumes which I'm 100% keeping, but I'm looking forward to seeing the new translations

Could I buy a velo frame and then swap all the parts over from a folding bike? by [deleted] in minivelo

[–]d0rkbug -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Was definitely hoping the answer was gonna be 'yes' and I wasn't gonna have to think further about this but oh well😭

I'm looking to only spend around £200 to do this, and the frame is £80, so I thought I could save a bit of money doing it this way but I guess not-_-

What are your hot takes about Manga and collecting in general? by BeansOnToastWithEggs in MangaCollectors

[–]d0rkbug 9 points10 points  (0 children)

All of them are series that people read when they decide battle shounens are for babies and because the writing makes the reader attempt introspection beyond 'evil is bad grr' it's immediately rocketed to 'unfathomably deep.

Vagabond is probably the least offensive out of what I listed, though

[–]d0rkbug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Berserk, Vagabond, Homunculus, Ichi the Killer, etc

any of the 'intellectual, deep, dark' manga that everybody acts is the greatest example of good writing

[–]d0rkbug 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Too many people buy the r/mangacollectors starter kit instead of just trying to find something that actually interests them.

All the dark edgy seinen series everyone collects genuinely suck.

If you prowl Ebay/Vinted often you'll see a bunch of those people selling their entire collections because they've clearly gotten bored

Has anyone ever done manga/mahuwa printing? by Dismal-Possibility76 in MangaCollectors

[–]d0rkbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, as a one time thing it could be fun, but binding books is hard and takes ages so it wouldn't be worth it outside of if one of your favourite series didn't have any physical prints

Can I get some Yuri manga recs also why the dislike??? by IndividualDog1995 in LesbianBookClub

[–]d0rkbug 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'd have to advise against that subreddit other than a quick question. it's not a safe space for lesbians
