on the topic of oneshots, very goofy one over on MagaPoke this week about a delusional boyfriend and his definitely-not-a-vampire girlfriend

This manga is the Chiba Tetsuya award honourable mention, and it's pretty good. You can definitely see how it earned the mention and where it fell short, but it's a very simple, effective story of father and daughter bonds.

sharp and to the point, but sadly, this was always the doomed outcome for Ako. very sweet that even in this moment, she gets to have Yutaka see her "imperfect" self.

this post, and some of the replies to it, perfectly captures why using a manga or story for what you want from it, and not listening to the story, is so damaging.

these manga arent for your self actualisation or personal development. theyre the stories of people who aren't YOU.
