6/28/2023 0 Comments Best anime of 2017 that i missedA Drunken Dream & Other Stories - Fantagraphics enters the licensed manga business with an historically important overview of Moto Hagio’s short shojo.Must reading for any of her yaoi fans for the chapter in which she apologizes to a gay man. Another work by Fumi Yoshinaga, combining relationship observations with restaurant reviews and cracks about the comic business in Japan. Not Love But Delicious Foods - As I said in my review, it’s as though this manga was created just for me.Wonderful in its diverse emotions, from the expected comedy through more poetic moments. Bunny Drop by Yumi Unita - Man adopts his previously unknown six-year-old aunt, and the two together learn to grow up.I don’t think I’ve seen before in comics an exploration of how difficult it can be for mother and daughter to learn to relate as adults, each a person in her own right. All My Darling Daughters - A stunning exploration of women’s lives and relationships by Fumi Yoshinaga, my favorite manga-ka.(This year, given the economy, I also considered whether I’d buy series volumes sight unseen, whether I was entertained enough to feel they were worth gambling the money on.) I have a few subcategories, under which I’ve ranked a maximum of five titles, with #1 being best. For the purpose of this post, I’m using a highly idiosyncratic definition of “best”, based mostly on what I looked forward to and enjoyed re-reading.
