Anybody subscribed to GEN? I just did. $1.99 a month for an indie manga magazine from Japan? Nice! Free back issues? Nice! However, I am downloading right now. The digital download is a PDF. Anyway, I'm seeing if anyone here has checked it out.

I started to subscribe to them at MangaNext in February but I've been pretty busy since then so I actually haven't done that much checking it out. (Like I literally moved into my new how the Sunday of MangaNext. It was a crazy weekend.) I'm trying to catch up on stuff now I'll hopefully check it out in a few days.

I just downloaded issue 1. I can't find any of the mangaka/manga in MAL's database. Haven't checked here. |

I discovered it through getting a review copy of VS Aliens and am now quite a happy little subscriber myself.
 It is a great deal, and this is one case where I can overcome my inherent cheapness by buying the collected volumes of series I like when they come out, simply in order to have the print editions.
I'm curious to know what series you like best in the magazine. (I'm halfway through issue 9.) As of right now, Sorako and SOULs' second storyline are my favorites. Something about Sorako feels very real to me, as well as reminding me of Solanin - I guess they both describe the same point in someone's life, really. As for the titles being in the encyclopedia, as I understand it from discussions with Dormcat, since these are doujinshi works, there's not a lot of information out there on them or their authors. VS Aliens and Wolf are currently the only two I know of in the ANN encyclopedia. |
