The other day I was driving through my (usually) quiet town when I came across a Black Lives Matter protest on the side of the road. Despite the heat and the threat of COVID-19, a group of young people – most of them adorning masks – were shouting “BLACK LIVES MATTER!” and holding up signs … Continue reading BLM Round Table with Black Creators from Saturday AM
Hey everyone~ I apologize that my writing has been so sparse. Things have been... crazy to say the least, considering what is going on in the world. I'm working on some stuff for the blog, but it may take a while. So I figured I'd post an old review on here to break up the … Continue reading Transparent Light Blue – A Yuri Manga I Actually Didn’t Like
Diversity and representation have always been very important to me. I grew up (and still live) in northern New Jersey, right outside of New York City. It’s an extremely diverse area with people of all different ethnic and religious backgrounds. Growing up, my schools always held cultural festivals, and I had many friends that were … Continue reading Saturday AM: Manga for a Multicultural World

My shelves at home are lined with it. And it's no coincidence that the majority … Continue reading Love Letter to Seven Seas Entertainment, My Favorite Manga Publisher
Hey, everyone~ So, I recently began writing manga reviews for the OASG, and my first review just went up. And... of course, I wrote about a yuri manga! The one I chose was Mushroom Girls in Love by Kei Murayama. As the name suggests, this manga is about mushroom girls that fall in love and … Continue reading Mushroom Girls in Love Manga Review
Hi everyone - it's time for my monthly OWLS post! For September, our theme was self-care, and I immediately thought of Nagata Kabi's manga My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness. This compelling biographical manga tells the real-life story of Nagata, a Japanese women who dealt with depression, anxiety, and mental illness for years before accepting her … Continue reading Self Care in My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness (OWLS September Blog Tour)
Hi everyone, it's PRIDE MONTH!!! And for this year, I have decided to write about my favorite yuri series. Although I'm always talking about how much I love yuri, I realized I've never really done a post about my favorite girl x girl series. So, here are the best yuri series in my opinion.
