Previous Thread

Happy Birthday! It has been one year since I made the first general discussion post in this community. Back then, this community newly created with a whole 1 subscriber and active member - me. Since then, we have grown to be the most active general manga community on lemmy. I didn’t do that on my own, so I want to thank everybody that has contributed over the past year to make this community what it has become today.

Just in case it wasn’t clear, you can absolutely use this thread the same way you would use any other general discussion thread. Let us know about things you have read, ask about things you want to read, show off some new volumes you just got, whatever. Go wild! (within the rules)

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).

    is there a christmas-themed anime movie?

    It’s not a movie exactly, but at only 6 episodes Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket is roughly movie-length. If I remember right it doesn’t require any prior knowledge of Gundam, either. It’s not exactly Christmas themed, but as I recall it takes place in December and there’s Christmas decorations and stuff in the background of some scenes.

    A bit of a stretch, I know.

    1 LN volume is not equal to 1 manga volume is not equal to 1 anime season. So…open to ideas on that one.

    I was going to suggest a certain number of chapters, but it occurs to me that 1 manga chapter is not always equal to 1 manga chapter; manga from monthly magazines tend to have much longer chapters on average. Anyways, I think 1 discussion thread for 1 volume of manga per week is a good pace. Since it’s a smaller community having a lot to talk about at once might help to make the discussion threads more active.

    I think a good candidate series would be something short, but with good ratings overall. Most of my favorite manga have at least 10 volumes though so I dunno.
