MANGA is the Japanese word for comics, usually refers to Japanese comics--in the context of this site, this definitely refers to Japanese comics ONLY. OTAKU is the Japanese word for a collector, enthusiast, or an obssessive fan.

This site is dedicated to my reviews, summaries and insights (regarding future chapters) of selected manga that I have read and those that I am currently reading.
