They've got special swag for preorders of the print edition, doesn't seem to indicate that those are sold out yet anywhere that I could find.

So I kinda forgot about this one:
https://twitter.com/junemanga/status/1494854251998285831?s=20&t=jWLlXcPzV5lwQ4Gf_QFYpw

I bought the ebook of it years ago but then they've just squatted on the license and never released any of the following volumes which I've been salty about for a long time. Supposedly this time we're actually going to see the rest of it (3 volumes total and a 1-volume spinoff), and they've been promoting the digital edition as "re-localized" so at least this feels like I'm getting something a little different and not just re-buying exactly the same book a second time.

The rest of the series is really what I'm looking forward to though.

They're doing some sales events with this, the Book Walker one is very nice (titles are 20% off plus 50% coinback) and there's a list of their debut titles in the announcement. When I'm not phone-posting I'll paste them in.

e: the list
This the first batch (sirens by the ones I'd recommend and/or want to read myself):
and these aren't out yet but will be next:

They're partnering with Bookwalker, Manga Plaza, and MANGA.CLUB for distribution so idk how availability will go on other platforms if you read elsewhere, might be the kind of situation where they'll spread out later.

That sounds cool but print only is kind of a bummer. At least it's short-ish with just two volumes so that's not a huge commitment of shelf space.

both the main characters are trying to achieve specific goals while avoiding or re-directing the suspicion of an aging and extremely paranoid emperor. Being placed under mandatory gay marriage in the book's setting is functionally a political bludgeon used to cap off troublesome bloodlines or a way for the emperor to re-capture titles and land, and as the story opens one of the characters has (barely) survived an assassination attempt and then gets "rewarded" by having a marriage sanctioned with the emperor's top crony. however, the two have a complicated and gay past.

I don't want to spoil too much, but I just found it to be a fun and pretty satisfying read overall

*edit* ^^^ yeah I'm really hoping they put out an ebook eventually. I do have a :filez: epub of the fan tl but I would like to throw more money at the author

It's just the one volume, but the recent Humble Manga Bundle from Kodansha has in the $1 tier 'What Did You Eat Yesterday?' which I have no idea the quality of.

https://www.humblebundle.com/books/awardwinning-manga-2022-kodansha-comics-books


The full $40 bundle has a bunch of good stuff too, like Blue Period, Witch Hat Atelier, Your Lie in April and Princess Jellyfish (which apparently was in the last manga bundle?)

What Did You Eat Yesterday? is fantastic. It's a very chill cooking/slice of life manga so the plot is mostly centered around cooking meals but it's up to like 18 volumes or so now of following Shiro and Kenji's lives and relationship along with their coworkers, friends, and extended family. One thing I really love about it is they're middle-aged (iirc late 40s at the start and then moving into their 50s) and they're starting to deal with health concerns from aging and Shiro's parents getting older. You really get to know everyone in their social circles so when a new volume comes out it's like catching up with old friends :3:

Highly recommend it. It was only available in print for a really long time but a couple years ago finally got a digital version so it's much more accessible now.

since a lot of people have Strong Feelings about omegaverse stuff, I should probably note that YuWu in its early draft phase was meant to be modern day omegaverse and a lot of those elements are very obvious in the final version meatbun wrote. I would in no way call YuWu omegaverse, but a lot of plot points and dynamics were obviously adapted from the genre and I could see it bothering people who have a strong dislike of it.
aside from that what I read of it had cool worldbuilding and really strong themes in regards to classism and how the characters perceive and interact with the world due to their status, so I'm really looking forward to it!

in other news I've seen some rumors that the Shanghai lockdown is having a hugely adverse effect on donghua production since a lot of animation studios are located there, bummer but kind of expected
