Emma MMF: Brigid Alverson et al.

filed under , 11 March 2010, 08:13; byline — Matt Blind

Just when things seemed to be slowing down a bit, Brigid Alverson at Manga Blog points us to not one but three previously written reviews

So long as I’m playing catch up this morning, I’ve additional links from other participants previous cited:

I hope the relative quiet means additional contributors are busy reading and writing, trying to make it in before the ‘deadline’ — to reassure everyone, and maybe take the pressure off: even after the artificial cut-off point I am more than happy to post Emma links both on my main page on the Emma MMF Hub

Additionally, I’m not going to post my final conclusions until Monday. A full 10 days seems only fair for a 10 volume series.

Thanks to everyone who has participated so far, and thanks for reading! If you have an Emma review (even one previously written, as most of the above linked articles were) please send me an email at matt [at] rocketbomber [dot] com.

Since we’re playing catch-up this friday, I’ll also repost links to these

if I win the lottery, Bradley Schenck will be getting a pile of cash to redesign this site from scratch.

In my head, I sound like Yahtzee (quite a feat, given my inherited U.S.-flat-midwestern-accent.)

where I start my browsing day...

...and one source I trust for reviews, reports, and opinion on manga specifically...

...and where my casual browsing usually ends, past the research for various articles that I have to do each day.

Note: NSFW. Icarus, best described as "the Thinking Man's Porn Manga." Simon does me the undeserved favor of dropping free review copies my way, which I have callously ignored to date. Simon's blog is also a must-read, for a look at the manga industry from a small indy publisher's perspective. Plus, porn.
