Reblogged
earlier this week Twitter user ppuccin0 tweeted about a fashion article that advised against tops with large floral patterns, saying the wearer was in danger of looking like a "ロマンティックおばさん," or a "romantic auntie." the tweet went viral with many agreeing that a "romantic auntie" sounded like a very nice thing to aspire to be, and some even posted illustrations or photos tagged with the trend

The Noble Lady on the Edge of the Cliff Wants to Make the Black Knight Fall in Love is about a noblewoman who marries the dreaded "black knight" of the kingdon to support her sickly younger sister and debt-ridden family, only to discover that the feared knight is actually a woman. i was intrigued by the concept and became a fast fan of Clarice and Frost's dynamic, but if you still need convincing, here's a peek at some of the character designs

Glacier Bay Books will be closing preorders for Star Clock Liddell in one week. From their website:
Yoshimi Uchida is one of the beloved cartoonists from the 70’s & 80’s who was active in Ribbon & Bouquet magazines. Uchida’s Star Clock Liddell is a classic of 20th century modern shoujo manga and their masterpiece, a rare, longer work first released between 1982 and 1983. In it, the artist’s quiet, firm lines delineate another world too familiar to our own… Young American socialite Hugh is haunted by recurring dreams of a silent house shadowed in mystery. Slowly overcome by a premonition of living on the “other side”, he turns to his close friends for advice. And then one day, a girl appears in his dream asking for help… A story about a man who becomes a ghost, which reaches for multiple deep themes about the nature of “home”, where people go when they find it, and when they lose it.
Uchida has not published any work since completing Star Clock Liddell, which has not been in print in years. This will be the first official English version of the manga.
