Wouldn't it be hilarious if Colleen did a video on their 31st birthday where they just recommend Chihayafuru 31 times in a row? 😝😊💜

When Colleen says trigger warnings for LIFE, she *means* trigger warnings. There are A LOT of heavy topics in that series. But it's definitely worth the read.

Congratulations! You have now entered a landmark age by which young folk consider themselves old! At least I did. I really hope this channel grows, and brings in a real income. I need there to be shojo/josei focused channels that bring in the resources that allow the creator to make large and ambitious projects with the high production values that significant resources facilitate. I believe in Colleen's ability to make this happen. Hard for me to contribute much an an income of disability, but I do hope this can grow. At the least, I can share it.

Cool to see a decent amount of yuri here! Especially since so much of the western “manga community” on YT seems to not have read any. That lack of variety in the stories that are featured is actually why I never watch many manga channels.

Ceres has such a special place in my heart: I asked for this manga when I was a teen but it was only being released in monthly,, chapter installments. My mom would dutifully go to the local "man-bro" comic book store EVERY MONTH with me to get them and I cannot imagine doing that today. Thanks mom ❤
