News at this hour. I made a funny TikTok about the situation from the post above, and it unexpectedly blew up, now the most viewed video on my account. Mostly positive comments, but I got a couple of complaints about how this comic could be sent to a manga award. Oh, how these people will be outraged that I also translated an old comic Picnic and posted it in the Manga Plus app for the monthly contest 😂. If you haven't read it, you can read it here. If you have read it and liked it, I would be very grateful if you could like it here (yes, I know, you need to register and scroll to the end, too many steps, but maybe you don't mind supporting me 😄)
P.S. The Japan International Manga award accepts any comics, because in Japan manga refers to comics in general, regardless of style; it's not some separate genre.
