I’m traveling/traveled to Iceland mid-September and stumbled across a manga set there, so I’m learning lots of words in Japanese for things I’m likely to/did encounter there! The manga is called 北北西に雲と往け Hokuhokusei ni Kumo to Ike, I highly recommend it especially if you’ve been or will go to Iceland. EDIT: there IS an existing official English translation, check the reblogs for more info!

HOW MANY manga stories do you follow every day/week/month ????
Hey Anon ! Checking my calendar, this goes like this :
Weekly :
One Piece ; Boy's Abyss
Monthly :
Ao no Exorcist ; Gokurakugai (around the 3rd of each month)
Kuroshitsuji (the 18th of each month)
Witch Hat Atelier (around the 20th-24th of each month)
Majo to Yajuu (on hiatus for a little over a year, due to the mangaka being sick, but usually around the 22nd)
Vinland Saga (around the 25th of each month)
Release every two weeks or so :
Akatsuki no Yona ; Chainsawman ; Spy x Family
Unpredictable release :
Berserk continuation, by Mori
Tsui no Taimashi - Ender Geister (weekly release on Sunday, but fan translation and access to raws are unpredictable)
Kinou Nani Tabeta ; Hokuhokusei ni Kumo to Ike ; Otona ni Nattemo (I read when new volumes get released in English)
Choujin X (I catch up every now and then)
Currently discovering :
Recently, I started Sousou no Frieren and also tried Vanitas no Carte's first chapters (@grelleswife ;)), but new series ask me for a lot more focus than series I already know, so it always depends on how I'm faring with my irl work (typically, I know I need to really take more time to understand VnC, especially since I'm naturally biased about any stories with vampire characters).
Additional rereading (I'm always rereading one series or another) :
Still going through my One Piece first rereading (currently stuck in Wano since December).
Otherwise, in January I reread Pierre Bottero's entire multiverse (about a dozen French fantasy books, I'm on the last one called "Les âmes croisées") and for the last 15 days, I've been rereading Akatsuki no Yona (caught up yesterday to the latest released chapter).
Since yesterday, I also started rereading Dorohedoro because two friends showed recent interest in it and I wanted refresh my memory in order to discuss this with them.
My 2024 plans are also to continue my TG reread that I started two years ago (lmao) and to reread Kuroshitsuji to prepare for Ciel & Seb's investigation. Gosh and I also want to reread Golden Kamuy, Chihayafuru and Blade of the Immortal. T_T
Rereading is really something I do on a whim though, so it's not like I can really be sure of what I'll reread next. Usually, it's driven by recent and important plot twist and unraveling. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Have a good day, Anon. :)

Hey! These are just some titles out of the top of my head that I think you might enjoy considering your lovely analyses :
Comics: Saga ;
books: Gentleman bastards, kingkiller chronicles, the Witcher, tales of the otori
Manga: monster by urasawa naoki, blade of the immortal, dorohedodo (because you enjoy Berserk and Vinland saga, iirc), unil death do us part, ao no exorcist, spy x family, Hokuhokusei ni Kumo to Ike
Good luck with the slump :))
Thanks you. I’ve read some of these but will have to check out the others

I see a fellow fan of Ran and the Grey World. An absolute banger of a manga in terms of art and story. Some of the pages are just to die for. (only gripe I have is Ran's relationship with a certain character (won't spoil as I don't know how far you've read)
Would recommend her other work like Gunjou Gakusha (more one-shot based, though some stories have more than one chapter) and Hokuhokusei ni Kumo to Ike (very interesting concept, sadly I couldn't find more than 40 chapters, seems to be on hiatus)
a fellow connoisseur of taste! i loooove gunjou gakusha. so much so that i did a presentation on it/irie aki's work in college 🤓 you might've heard a quote by miyazaki that goes like this: “When I clap my hands, you hear the sound of the clap. You don’t hear what is in between the sound of the clap. In Japan, we have a name for what is in between the sound of the clap. We call it ma.” i see ma/間/negative space everywhere in the atmosphere she creates.
the nature of ran and outarou's relationship is very disturbing, but the purpose of it, to me, is magnificent: he has to die so ran can grow up. i can't help think that irie aki wrote ran in the gray world with her younger self in mind, from the perspective of an older woman. and with that perspective comes a desire to luxuriate in beauty and draw beautiful things, to not treat her stories so delicately, to be alive like an old willow tree. a few years ago, i used to think 'i love this story, but still, why would irie aki tie ran's emerging maturity/emotional development with an obviously sus adult man? there are way better coming-of-age narratives than that.' but the older i get, the more i see the letter that is sent across time from an older woman to her younger self. the more i understand what she is trying to say

Just got back from visiting Iceland for the first time, and not only were Into Oblivion by Arnaldur Indriðason and 北北西に雲と往け (Hokuhokusei ni Kumo to Ike) by Irie Aki weirdly good preparation for learning more about Iceland, it also really made me want to reread the Scandinavia and the World comics by Humon~
