the problem is that this are really random titles, not even classics like The Rose of Versailles or Kamui.
So...even though I do love shoujo, and there are some shoujo titles included, there's none that i would actually care for...
Then again, it's not much money (comparatevily) to other projects.

Lately, Japanese people like to use the word "Cool Japan" to describe aspects of the country that seem appealing, and we believe there isn't anything more deserving of that title than Japanese manga.


I thought the age "Cool Japan" was over.

You should check out 'Husky Voice' in their catalogue then. It's all in English, but I'm not sure if the full scanlation is available for free or not. It's a nice shoujo gender-bender though!

I want to see this succeed but if they're offering the manga for online viewing only that's not really good, especially when you consider what happened to JManga as a result of that (and they're citing their closure which isn't much of a sentiment if they're adhering to the same thing that killed them)

Yeah, because clearly the service giving us stuff like Mighty no. 9 needs to die. Rolling Eyes
