Previous Thread

Another week in the books. Let's chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.

Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).

Other than those I posted (and a metric ton of manhwa about villainesses), this week the two biggest discoveries for me where:

The Transfer Destination Was a World with few Pharmacists

It's a fun story of a wrongly transmigrated (how novel) woman into the classic medieval/magic/dungeons world. To 'compensate' her for their mistake, the god of that world trains her to be a skilled pharmacist. The story is relatively simple and cute, with some hints of romance. Since it's on Alpha-Manga, it took me forever to manage to read the available chapters. Wish they would just release a subscription tier instead of their stupid points.

A Tale of a Little Alchemist Blessed by the Spirits

Instead of transmigrated pharmacist, loli alchemist. The first chapter had me in tears with the constant loli doing something noises. The story is extremely cute, for once the parents are absolutely great and supportive, and the main protagonist is absolutely adorable. 🥰

their stupid points.

Those are the worst. It's the reason why I only have Manga Plus for legal manga, other than buying volumes

It annoys me to no end. I purchase the stuff I like when available in my country, but this is neither on Play Books, nor Kindle. Only that 💩.

Alpha Manga has some of their stuff on Kindle, like May I Ask For One Final Thing, but only on Kindle... I prefer Kobo.

Sadly not that, at least where I live. 😢

Yeah, Alpha Manga doesn't link to it either, like they do with the other one sadly.
