Humble Bundle: Kana Manga Mini-Bundle The Sequel

I'm a little late on sharing this one, but there's still eleven days left, so there should be time for most people!

Kana Manga is back again, bringing another manga mini collection!

This bundle includes:

  • Scars, volumes 1 thru 3
  • Silence, volumes 1 thru 4
  • Space Punch, volumes 1 thru 5

  • You can get the entire bundle of manga in PDF form for only $18 USD. Unlike most other Humble Manga Bundles, this one is only available as the full set, so you cannot, for example, buy the first volume of each series for $1 USD.

    This bundle supports Book Industry Charitable Foundation, which has helped bookstore and comic book store employees and owners who encounter unexpected financial crises. The Binc Foundation works to keep book people in their homes, in their jobs, and with their families – stabilizing the brick and mortar bookstore community. With some bundles, you can pick which charity you want your donation to go to, but that doesn't seem to be the case with this one. If you scroll down on the right hand side of the Humble Bundle page, you can also find an area where you can adjust how much of your purchase goes to which organization (the charity, the publisher, and Humble Bundle, respectively), with a minimum mandatory amount to Humble Bundle as the host.

    This bundle is available for the next 11 days.

    Hee!

    I think one of my favorite things about people make podfics based on my fanfiction is how many different ways I've heard Settiai pronounced over the years.

    No, really, you wouldn't think there were that many possible ways for people to try to say it, but there are. "Set-tie" (the pronunciation that I and most people familiar with Babylon 5 use) and "set-tea-eye" are the most common ones, but I've probably heard at least half a dozen different pronunciations in addition to those over the years. Every time I think that there's no possible way someone could come up with a new one, they prove me wrong.

    There was one person who actually managed to turn it into four syllables, which I quite honestly found very fucking impressive.

    \o/

    Oh, hey! I just realized that our office is closed on Friday as well as Monday, so I get a four day weekend!

    I'm going to try to do some grocery shopping after work on Thursday and maybe pick up a 12-pack of Corona to see me through the long weekend, and then I'm going to plan on not leaving the house for the entirety of those four days.

    Fan annotations?

    Are there any sub groups that have made like, annotations that show up as subtitles while watching a dubbed version of an anime? Like an entire subtitle track consisting of "Translator's Note"-type asides.

    Feels like a way that the format could be used for shows that are really intertextuality-heavy to explain various references being made, but I have no idea if it's actually happened in practice.

    Ani-MAY & MAY-nga

    I know we are halfway through the month, but is anyone else doing anything for ani-MAY or MAY-nga this year? Are they even still things?

    I've been challenging myself to watch or rewatch through one disc a day of my anime DVD collection and to reread one volume a day of my physical manga collection.

    The anime part is going well. It's given me an excuse to make time to watch some things I haven't in awhile and helping me decide what maybe could leave my collection.

    I am very behind on the manga reading, but it has been fun. I actually set out a bunch of volumes to do this with last year and never got it, so it's kinda like a weird Advent calendar, full of nostalgia. There doesn't seem to be any sort of rhyme or reason to why I picked the volumes off the shelf that I did. It's an adventure. (And yes, that means there was a very large stack of manga on my nightstand for a year that I grew blind to. The poor things.)
