Marry my husband (2021)
[Webtoon] Marry my Husband 내 남편과 결혼해줘 – Korea (2021) I discovered this great webtoon during my stay in Tahiti-Moorea. It had become my little ritual before going to bed to watch episodes of webtoons. So I’m going to tell you about my favorite “Marry my Husband”, a beautiful science fiction love story and personal accomplishment. This is the story of Jiwon Kang, a 37-year-old woman who is at the end of her life. She has cancer and is staying in the hospital. Her husband Minhwan Park doesn’t even come to visit her and ignores her phone messages so she decides to come home unexpectedly. She finds her husband in…

One Punch Man by One & Yûsuke Murata
[Seinen Manga] One Punch Man 一拳超人 – 24 volumes (2009-ongoing) I discovered this manga thanks to Yatuu’s article of 15/01/2016 which made me want to discover Saitama this atypical hero who has a very flashy and authentic look. He is very strong and can defeat monsters with one punch! So he is invincible! So I was not disappointed to discover this totally offbeat universe. I quickly devoured the first volumes of the manga but then I read them with less enthusiasm from volume 10 because I saw that Saitama appeared less often on the boards leaving the honor to other heroes. The fight scenes led by them dragged on too…

Candy by Yumiko Igarashi & Kyoko Mizuki
[Shojo manga] Candy Candy – 9 volumes (1993) This manga was published in 1993. It is one of my favorite manga that always accompanied me in life. It is the very first shojo manga that I read, when I was a teenager. It deeply marked and touched my heart as a young girl. I wanted to be like her, mischievous and brave, to be joyful and authentic. Just like her, I wanted to live beautiful relationships, friendships and love, but especially to be able to meet my “Prince of the hills”. I think that after that, I always knew that I was made to live in a couple, a life…

Dr Slump by Akira Toriyama
[Shonen manga] Dr Slump IQ 博士 (1980-1984) – 18 volumes Do you know the manga Dr Slump ? It was the first big hit for Akira Toriyama, author of “Dragon Ball”. I discovered this manga when I was in Taiwan as a teenager. I only got volume 2 because there was no longer 1 in the store. At the time, I couldn’t read or write Chinese, so my mom read me some dialogues. I found the title very intriguing I.Q 博士 。QI… and 博士 [bó shì] for doctor. This is the story of Doctor Slump who created a robot, a 13-year-old girl he named Arale. He presents her as his sister…

The great story of a small line
I like to stroll to the media library from time to time and read children’s books (my dream is to publish them), because I am sensitive to the drawing and the universal message it conveys. Who said that children’s books are only for children? This time I was not alone but with my friend and our respective children. She was not in good spirits and I proposed her to do something she had never done before: we were looking for a children’s book that we would read together to forget those negative thoughts. I chose the book “La grande Histoire d’un petit Trait”, I knew I would like it because…
