Renta is releasing Black Sesame Salt & Custard Pudding and it's also on Bookwalker collected in volumes if you don't use renta/don't want to buy it by chapter (that version is also on Amazon if BW isn't your thing, I just had a shitload of coins to spend there so :v:)

I know several of us read and enjoyed it so heads up, for supporting the official release.




I have exactly 2 physical manga books. And honestly didnt read manga at all before covid restarted my reading of them.

But If that story had a physical copy (regardless of language) and i could figure out how to get ahold of it I would. No i dont know why i like it so much i just really do. Its super comfy.

volume 2 looks like it's backordered but you might be able to find it other places; cd japan is just an easier site to navigate than a lot of them so I usually look there first.

this is a real dumb question, but how do you read manga on this site? I see "latest releases" on this page, but I can only get to a list of the titles the group is translating

You dont. Manga updates is just a tracker/status site.

The site doesn't actually host any mangas, it's more of a... info aggregator? on scanlation stuff. Author, genres, publication info, scan groups and release dates, alternate titles, that kinda stuff.
It gives you all the info to find it on a site that actually hosts manga, though.


edit: back in ye olde times before onemanga (✟) or even mangatraders (✟), that site is where you went to find out which IRC channel you had to join to download a new chapter

Yeah, sorry about that - you already learned what it does; I'm just used to linking to it because it's the way I keep track of what I've read.

One of the great parts about it is that its tagging system is real useful for finding things using the advanced search, unlike basically every other manga reader site (at least in my experience).

EDIT: Oh, and perhaps more importantly - while a lot of other reader sites have come (and a lot have similarily gone), mangaupdates and anidb (which I use to keep track of anime) are both still around.
I wouldn't have any loving clue what I'd read/watched back in the 90s, if I hadn't had some way of keeping track of it through all these years.

mangaupdates is a pretty good neutral site to link to since they generally list both scanlation info and official releases so you can decide where and how you want to read something, and also don't need to be worried about getting linked to some sketchy place with bad ads or nsfw content

A Fool in Love is a Fool Indeed is pretty self-explanatory.

My Mom's A Superstar is a new series which could end up having an interesting twist.

Fake Sweets can also be pretty sweet.

I'm so glad this manga did away with the "pretending to get married" premise and instead became a story about two introverts dealing with their first serious relationship.

Real talk. Nieki does some really interesting slice-of-life supernatural stories but I feel like none of them get the fair shake they deserve. The long-neck series got cut short. I feel like Jun and Kaoru did as well despite making the transition from twitter comic to serialization. And his current series is still on hiatus. Doesn't help that translators for his works tend to drop his stuff for months or years at a time.

Not that I don't like this, but I kinda wish Nagori-Sensei would actually finish one of their stories once in a while instead of only releasing 2 or 3 chapters before moving on to a different tall x smol girl series.

Read a couple chapters and it seems good so far. Despite his looks the dude is a huge dope, which reminds me of how a lot of josei and shoujo dudes (at least in my limited experience) are annoying or boring because they're either messy and kinda lovely creatives or perfect superman CEOs, each equally inscrutable, and this is setting aside seinen dudes who are often the worst human alive or shounen dudes who tend to be substanceless. But that being said, I can't really name what I would want them to be more like, beyond I guess having some actual window into their insecurities and lives. What makes a good josei/shoujo man?
