Good morning, one and all! Day 1 of SuperComi went fairly well, although the line management at 6am left something to be desired. There were very few sold-out titles and some circles only offered their most recent works--in those cases I bought some alternate doujinshi for comm members to look at. But I'm really sorry, mr_yenz, your request dropped into ( Read more... )

Evening everyone! I'm writing this on my way to Tokyo--and is the shinkansen ever crowded tonight! Here's a summary of what's been going on at the Nook this week:

1. Backorders: I'm slowly making headway on this issue, and a couple more people are about to hear from me shortly--we got replacement books and a stunning little motorcycle manga set ( Read more... )

Good morning, good morning! There's a lot to look at in the Nook today; I just posted entries regarding the next conventions and Pash! magazine as well.

Hello fellow Hetalians! The next World Summit will be held in Nagoya on Sunday, April 5th; it's a smaller convention than the Osaka version held a couple of months ago, but top circles such as 107-shiki, ZEAL, TomoeManufacture, and TOTTO + YB make this an event worth checking out. I'll be in Nagoya looking over the booths with bated breath and ( Read more... )

Hello folks and let me be the first to say "Thank God It's Friday!" I just finished the weekly sales update, which was over 50 percent larger than previous installments--if you're looking for new doujinshi you'll definitely have a lot to look at!

Afternoon everyone, and hopefully you're not dealing with the crazy weather Japan's been plagued with for the last week. Spring really is on its way, isn't it? Last Sunday was an "off day" as far as conventions were concerned, but it was as busy as ever at the Nook. Here's a quick summary of how things have been going:

1. Back Orders: You might ( Read more... )

Morning everyone and cripes is it early! I'm heading out the door in about ten minutes and will be making my way to Intex Osaka shortly. I've been checking my list over and over again--Yubinbasya calendars, postcards, P4 doujins, CHECK!--and will be hitting the stores afterward in search of more doujinshi ( Read more... )

2. Reborn: I've handled several requests for Reborn! doujinshi in the past and present, but for the ( Read more... )
