By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting This upcoming season is ramping up to be one of the most stacked I’ve seen in years. Sure, the list of new and returning titles always feels long—but usually, I can narrow things down to about ten “must-watch” shows without too much trouble. This time I wasn’t even close to that. As I started pulling titles, I saw so … Continue reading What to Watch: Spring 2026
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting The last few weeks have been a bit rough. We ended up taking an unexpected hiatus—because of me—mainly because I didn’t have anything prepared for the first time in a long while, didn’t have time to edit other submissions to fill the gap, and was juggling midterms for almost all but two of the eight classes I’m teaching this … Continue reading [Recommended Watch] Animal Partner by JJALTOON on YouTube
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting This year, I’ve been on the lookout for matching outfits that bring out the best (and most vibrant) colors from some of my favorite series. I really think that the attention to matching character outfits can be stunning and meaningful as it adds so much heart and harmony to the work. Here’s a rainbow of my top picks for … Continue reading Happy Hearts and Matching Outfits #5: The Rainbow
By: Katherine Cañeba | @kcserinlee It’s a New Year, and it’s the perfect time to start a new manga! I would love to introduce you all to my newest favorite manga series: Girl Crush by Midori Tayama. It is a fresh coming-of-age story about female K-pop idol trainees supporting (and competing with) each other on their way to the top. In addition to the beautiful … Continue reading [Recommendation] Girl Crush: Connecting With Others Through Manga
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I was looking for something nostalgic to watch on YouTube when I came across a compilation of all the MyScene webisodes from 2000 to 2006. In my memory, MyScene was a goofy-looking web series about a group of fashionable late-teen girls (an Alternate Universe version of Barbie, Madison, Chelsea, Nolee, and Delancey) living it up in the Big Apple (New York City). Like many other … Continue reading [Rant] Revisiting Mattel’s MyScene Webisodes: #MeanGirls
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I think most of you know by now that I’m very much a comics fan. I love discussing them, learning about them, and sharing them. Recently, I’ve also been hoping to teach comics formally in a class, and as part of the proposal process, I’ve started designing the course to create a proof of concept. When I began planning … Continue reading Designing an Accessible, No-Cost Class for Comics: What I’m Learning
By: Rachael Kahn | @TAVMedia Currently exhibiting at the de Young Museum in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, is a large manga exhibit in the United States that started its run on 27 September 2025, and will finish this 25 January 2026. Curated by Dr. Nicole Coolidge Rousmaniere, this is a must-see exhibit for any manga fan close enough to visit. The exhibit both displays … Continue reading [Event Review] Art of Manga Exhibit at the de Young Museum in San Francisco
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting TL;DR: Overall, PokeKon Charleston felt less like a full convention and more like a small meetup. It may be enjoyable for locals, families, or collectors looking to buy cards, but it isn’t something I’d recommend planning an entire day or trip around. My Review: Last weekend, Krow and I attended PokeKon in Charleston, SC, and while I went in with … Continue reading [Event Review] PokeKon Fest – Charleston, SC 2025
By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Sousou no Frieren 2nd Season / Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Season 2 Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End is returning for a second season, and I couldn’t be more excited. The first season was a beautifully slow-paced series and, in recent seasons, the only show I’ve found comparable is Mizu Zokusei no Mahoutsukai / The Water Magician from last summer, which … Continue reading Winter 2026 Watch List
Written by: Katherine Cañeba | @kcserinlee I had been hoping to publish this post soon after having seen the movie, but life happened. So here I am, almost two years behind schedule. Still, better late than never! After the seemingly endless wait (for me, at least) from the Christmas 2023 release of the movie Spy x Family CODE: White in Japan to its North American … Continue reading [Review] Spy x Family CODE: White (Anime & Movie Spoilers!)
