Blogs
[edit]As someone may eventually question why this article relies on three blogs, I'm creating this section. Although they seem random bloggers, Zack Davisson, Lori Henderson and Bill Sherman are all established commentators. My evidences:
- Davisson: he is a scholar on Japanese folkore and manga translator, for Showa: A History of Japan, for example, that received an Eisner Award for "Best U.S. Edition of International Material—Asia" (I assume it of couse analysis translation); has been featured on National Geographic series Japan: Lost Souls of Okinawa; has written for Japanzine [1], Metropolis [2] and The Comics Journal [3] (he says on his blog for Weird Tales Magazine too though I cannot check it online); The Comics Journal [4] and The Japan Times [5] interviewed him (see also: his profile page)
- Henderson: she has written for Comics Village, MangaLife and School Library Journal [6], all are reliable sources, according to the A&M Wikiproject
- Sherman: his reviews have been featured in Seattle Post-Intelligencer [7] and The Comics Journal [8]; he is also quoted by Comics Worth Reading [9] (WP:A&M/RS), scholar sources [10] and George Gustines of The New York Times [11]

- I believe that you are referring to Bill Sherman reviewer for Blogcritics so you may want to check to see if he has written for the PI or that his reviews have simply been reprinted. – Allen4names (contributions) 01:57, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah, Allen4names. That's the guy. Do you think it's not relevant if they are just reprints? Gabriel Yuji (talk) 18:26, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Gabriel Yuji: I think it would be relevant as the staff of the PI may not have know anything about Mr. Sherman when they (apparently) licensed Blogcritics.org content. Another concern is a future change to the robots.txt file that could prevent access to archived pages at the Wayback Machine so please use

in citation templates when appropriate. Regards. – Allen4names (contributions) 19:43, 19 January 2017 (UTC)- I see your point. Anyway, if they licensed it, they must have a reason. The fact itself of appearing in PI indicates some notability. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 20:19, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Otaku USA review
[edit]According to their own website [12], Otaku USA has reviewed the series in their print edition. I don't have access to it and I'm not sure someone listed in WikiProject Anime and manga magazine archive has. Anyway, I'm adding it here in the case someone has access to it in the future.
