I bought some manga again today.
Maybe I can get into reading again after dropping off.
The first one is Tower Dungeon after a recommendation of @weebdeluxe . It sounds like an interesting fantasy-series. You can get it in german via mangacult but I opted for the english-version from kodansha. mangacult does not have an E-Book for it while kodansha did.
A synopsis:
An evil necromancer slays the king and carries off his daughter, secreting her in the legendary Dragon Tower. To save the princess, her steadfast Royal Guard assays the stronghold, but the way is blocked by powerful eldritch creatures… So, to supplement their forces in the face of mounting casualties, they press ordinary folks from the surrounding villages into service—including Yuva, a sturdy young farmboy with a strong back but no experience in battle, and only a battered old helm and wooden shield to protect him. Master of science fiction Tsutomu Nihei (Blame!, Knights of Sidonia) turns his unique storytelling voice and architectural eye to fantasy for the first time, offering a dark, gritty tale of swords and sorcery, bravery and adventure, great heroes and ultimate evil. Gird your loins, heft your blade, and enter the Dragon Tower.
Sounds like a good time. I bought the first two volumes of it.
The second manga was mentioned in the r/Lolita-Subreddit. It was discussed there earlier but I found it in a thread about male Lolita
Its “On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance” published in english by PenguinRandomHouse
(yes thats a publisher; seemingly even a giant one lol and is owned by Bertelsmann of all things; the Blockes that also own Trash-TV RTL)
Dunno its premise kinda hooked me here xD
A Lolita boy and a punk girl form a fashion-forward bond without realizing they already know each other from work! There are two sides to every working adult: one they show when they’re on the job, and one they show when they’re off the clock. For coworkers Sotaro Amata and Akira Hanku, this holds doubly true. Outside the office, these fashionistas don outfits that metamorphose them into completely different people! So what happens when they form a connection after hours…without recognizing who the other person is?
The volumes are rather short but maybe I will read the first volume shortly. Sounds fun as well.
