not my favourite Asano book but I teared up 

complete (vol 1,2)

vol 2

I would love to get my hands on all 6 of the out-of-print vols but they're sold at eye-watering collectible prices. I want to read it so badly!

vols 1,2

I haven't read this because I'm a terrible person

vols 1-5

started reading it and the sexism is too repulsive to continue. I mean on the part of the authors, not the characters. I'll get over it someday

vols 1-6

vol 8

vols 1-14

so metal, much ordeal. one of my favourites

vols 1-3

at the end of a US trip I thought 'I should check out manga over here' on a whim, so I found this place called the Anime Pavilion on our way out of Washington, went in not knowing what to expect, and the guys there turned out to be the friendliest, most helpful bunch! now I have a fond memory of meeting 'my people' on holiday

complete (omnibus 1)

complete (vol 1-6) - read

this was way better than I expected. THEMES, fucking THEMES

vols 1-6

vols 1-7

this starts out promisingly with a Dangerous Liaisons sort of vibe but then gets repetitive and I don't like when a piece of information is deliberately withheld for too long from the reader, in a transparent and irritating attempt to create suspence

vol 1

cultured bitches read gekiga

I love Itou's humour. long live his creepy cats!

complete (collection 1) - read

My Dear Ancestors is so viscerally terrifying, I felt my womb shudder. well done, Itou-sensei!

complete (omnibus 1) - read

Yep, I confirm this is a horror masterpiece 

I have this in both English and French because I am a muppet who didn't check the list I made in order to avoid this exact scenario

complete (collection 1)

typical early Satoshi Kon stuff about dreams and perception. I think this was collected and published posthumously; there's an interview with Susumu Hirasawa :D

complete (vol 1)

I want to collect all of Satoshi Kon's manga

complete (vol 1) - read

it's an alright environmental story but I liked the art the most

vol 1

vols 1-9,20

borrowed it from my brother and now I love this so freaking much! the face expressions, the pickles he must find a way out of

omnibus 1-7

this moves at a snail pace and I love it. detailed panels upon detailed panels of someone's face or a landscape, as if the images are snapped in quick succession or as if you're blinking. sadly I cannot read this on public transport or at work

vols 1-3

vols 1-3

it's an easy to read mystery so far but I hope it doesn't turn into a 'raise your very own loli' type of thing

complete (vol 1) - read

not bad at all, wish it were longer

complete (vol 1-4) - read

I bought this based solely on the cover art and I really liked how grim it turned out to be

complete (vol 1-3)

vols 1-5

the prose is a bit: he was very tall, and had the most beautiful eyes and the most beautiful hair, and was the best at everything. oh, ok then. otherwise, it's very interesting

vols 1-8
