Battle Royale Deluxe Vol. 1 is out in the wild now!! I'm very happy to have gotten the chance to letter the new edition of this crazy series. Though after 600 pages of this I need something cute and fluffy to heal my soul...

I can make children read again

Thank you again for taking this herculean book on! You did such a great job with it.

Immortality and Punishment! The first volume of this bleak zombie apocalypse manga dropped yesterday and I was tasked with some challenging, complicated bits of localization. So let's talk about it!

The Hiveworks Artist Guild has released a public statement alleging years of labor abuses, financial mismanagement, and misconduct at Hiveworks at the hands of Xellette “Xel” Velamist and Isabelle “Isa” Melançon. Read their full statement at:

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

The cover of Mushishi Collector's Edition volume 1.

A subtitled sound effect from the new English edition of Mushishi. Rough open block letters are surrounded by a screen tone that is scraped away in places, and sometimes crosses into the interior of the letters to mimic the original sound effect.

A subtitled sound effect from the new English edition of Mushishi. The original sound effect is cut in half by the arc of a slash. The english subtitle is nestled within a gap and is similarly bisected.

A subtitled sound effect from the new English edition of Mushishi. The original sound effect is over art with rough line art and dense screen tone. The line art was drawn approximately up to the edges of the katakana, and sometimes the screen tone is scraped away. The english sound effect is in an area with more dense line art, so it has an uneven outline made of the screen tone to keep the letters legible. Those outlines keep the tone contiguous with the art. White scraping is also visible.

There's a new English release of Mushishi, lettered by Phil Christie (@kernedout.bsky.social). I adore how Urushibara-sensei utilizes texture in her art, and how the sound effects inherit that texture. Phil does an amazing job replicating that with subtitled SFX. Notes in alt text!

we don't even have any titles that have sleepy in it what

what does this mean... when did I make this???

A few are still packed away but here are my mikus

Hi! Here's every manga I lettered in 2025. 40 volumes, maybe 43ish if you count omnibuses. This was a recovery year for me "technically" but I still ended up pretty overloaded. I have about the right workload, but time management is a tricky beast. Will try better next year!

My Werewolf Girlfriend is my VERY self-indulgent comic set in basically grimdark Stardew Valley, but the farmer's a werewolf who becomes obsessed with the monster hunter who's been sent to kill her!

Another year is in the books, so here's what I lettered in 2025!

Here's hoping to another great year in lettering for 2026!

One more year to celebrate! Here is the books I've worked on this year. I love romantic and cutesy stories and my clients know it (ignore the casual gore around there lol). Also, welcome to my cottage core era.

Year end collage of all the covers of manga/manhua/doujinshi I worked on in 2025! A total of 29 volumes and 8 shorter doujinshi
