Swallowed Hours

 


Okay, so I literally shut the windows to make it all moody in here, and only the lamp was on. I slid my earphones on, and the rain started booming like surround sound. And now, guess who’s about to binge 14 mangas, one by one? Yup, all me. Maybe a chapter or two. Okay, maybe three.

My hit list rn:  

1. Tokyo Ghoul (Sui Ishida)

2. Fullmetal Alchemist (Hiromu Arakawa)

3. Ajin: Demi-Human (Gammon Sakurai)

4. Kaiju No. 8 (Naoya Matsumoto)

5. Battle Royale (Koushun Takami & Masayuki Taguchi)

6. Demon Slayer (Koyoharu Gotouge)

7. Berserk (Kentaro Miura)

8. Fairy Tail (Hiro Mashima)

9. The Flowers of Evil (ShΕ«zō Oshimi)

10. Solo Leveling (Chugong; art by Jang Sung-rak)

11. Dandadan (Yukinobu Tatsu)

12. 20th Century Boys (Naoki Urasawa)

13. Dragon Head (Minetaro Mochizuki)

14. Sakamoto Days (Yuto Suzuki)


By the way, you know that feeling when you’re so into a book, time just blurs? That’s what happened to me after reading Junji Ito’s Frankenstein and his other stories. TBH, I liked Neck Specter and Intruder the most, but Frankenstein’s still haunting me.
