Another week in the books. Let's chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.

Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).

I didn't prepare my comment before as I usually do and I pretty much forgot everything I was going to write today so I'll just make a ~~short~~ more rambling version this time. Oh well.

My villainess entry for today is Villainesses Have More Fun - woman gets pulled into a novel, just wants to bum around as a rich kid instead of acting her part.
This one is more of a power fantasy than most of the series I post but for whatever reason I really DO have more fun with this so I can let this slide (I'm not a fan of pure power fantasies normally). It's light and funny and a decent way to waste your time. Also:

(No, I will not provide context.)

Numba 2 is... NOT A VILLAINESS STORY! You probably didn't expect that!

The Girl From the Other Side: Siúil, a Rún is a moody and kinda sweet story about a young girl in a land of strange, dark creatures. It's pretty great though reading it feels a bit heavy due to the atmosphere.
I came back to this series after a good few years and it's still as interesting as it was at the time. I'm also not in a head space to read it so I'll most likely postpone this for some later date. But I want to know what happens next though...

Another series I came back to is She Is Also Cute Today - something I remember liking quite a bit back when it was new. Well, for whatever reason I'm really not feeling it this time. There are some funny moments here and there but as a whole it doesn't do much for me unfortunately.
I'll keep reading from time to time to see if I can get back into the groove but this one might end up dropped before long.

There was one more thing I wanted to write about today but, as mentioned at the start, I completely forgot what it was. I pretty sure it had something to do with yet another series I binged through last week but it's gone. Maybe next time.
