I want to try something different to encourage more engagement on this community.

Let’s share what we’re reading and watching this month! Whether you’re one or one hundred chapters/episodes deep, whether you love it or hate it, whether it’s a new series or an old favorite, this is the place to share what comics and/or animation you’ve been consuming lately.

Friendly reminder that this community is specifically for folks 30-years-old and up; you can still participate in this discussion if you’re younger than that, but please mark your comments with “under 30.” Thanks!

    I’ll start us off:

    Watching: Archer, Lower Decks, Mob Psycho 100, Dead Dead Demon’s Dededede Destruction, Scavengers Reign

    Reading (Webtoons): Ava’s Demon, Eros Conquers All, False Knees

    Reading (Manga): Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou (Yokohama Shopping Diary), Oversimplified SCP, Hokuou Kizoku to Moukinzuma no Yukiguni Karigurashi (The Snow Country Hunting Life of the Northern Nobleman and the Eagle-like Wife)

    I think of all of these Eros Conquers All is the only one I’d hesitate to recommend. There’s nothing wrong with it per se, I’m just not super into it; I’m hoping it gets more engaging. Scavengers Reign is very well made, but unfortunately may not be my taste (I love a “fun” survival story, but this is more “horror/despair” survival). Ava’s Demon started off a bit weak (the premise and characters are kind of meh) but it sucked me in with its fantasy/sci-fi world-building, plus

    one of the best body horror scenes I’ve ever read

      Nothing wrong with a rewatch! (Although you make it sound like you’re doing so begrudgingly)
