The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn’t a Guy at All Vol. 2 is choppy in the story but has awesome art

Posted on by

Aya’s found out that the guy she was interested in isn’t a guy at all—and she’s also realized that she just can’t keep her cool around Mitsuki! The two haven’t quite put a name on their complex, earnest feelings, but they only grow as the pair continues to bond over the music they love. With their senior year at hand, future plans are coming into question…and Aya’s thrown for a loop when a mysterious woman shows up and wants Mitsuki to go overseas!

Kaiju No. 8 B-Side Vol. 1 is a nice expansion of an already awesome manga series

Posted on by

A spin-off of the smash hit Kaiju No. 8, this manga takes a deeper look at some of the series’ most beloved characters. See Hoshina, Shinomiya, and others in the past as they struggle to find themselves through battle with deadly kaiju!

In this first of two volumes, Hoshina’s backstory comes to light. The harsh words of his father could have hobbled Hoshina for life, but Hoshina’s not your average kaiju fighter. Armed with his signature swords, he shakes free of the doubts of the past, determined to take down kaiju and make a name for himself!

Kaiju No. 8 Vol. 12 is packed with some awesome action and tense moments

Posted on by

The Eastern Division has been attacked by identified-class kaiju. Narumi and Kikoru have taken care of their targets, but Hoshina is still facing off against No. 12, the finished project that No. 10 served as the prototype for. Even worse, Numbers Weapon 10 won’t output more than 83 percent unleashed combat power, making this battle even more of a struggle for Hoshina!

The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn’t a Guy at All Vol. 1 is a great start with great art

Posted on by

Fashionable and upbeat high schooler Aya loves listening to rock, but no one else seems to share her interest…until she meets a cool, stylish employee at a CD shop. Dressed in black from head to toe, he has this air of mystery about him, and his taste in music is impeccable. Aya falls hard for him―not knowing her crush is actually her female classmate Mitsuki! For her part, Mitsuki generally keeps to herself and avoids standing out at school. But given that she sits right next to Aya, Mitsuki’s all too aware of the other girl’s feelings, and she’s afraid to reveal the truth. So why does she find herself talking with Aya more and more…?

Posted on by

The Autobots and the Decepticons have been locked in a brutal civil war for eons, and now their battle has come to Earth! The Autobots seek peace and coexistence, while the Decepticons seek power and control. Earth and its populace are caught in the middle as these mighty factions go head-to-head. Transformers took the world by storm shortly after their debut, and these previously uncollected stories were a vital part of that takeover!

The final volume of Transformers: The Manga is here!
