How to be Ace takes us through Rebecca’s life from her school life where she was bullied and confused to an adult struggling with her identity and experiencing anxiety and OCD. It’s insightful, honest, and depicts asexual relationships in ways that we’re yet to see elsewhere. In her interview with Pixiv, Nagata talks about how “I’ve always been drawing as far as I remember”. She also mentions iconic Takehiko Inoue‘s Slam Dunk as her gateway to reading manga. However, in the end, it was the genre of autobiography that she found herself most comfortable with. After My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness, she continued the series with two more books, also talking about her life: My Solo Exchange Diary, which came out in Japan later in 2016, and My Alcoholic Escape from Reality, released in 2019.

Monstress is an Image Comics series beloved by fans and a wonderful example of how to writer a powerful queer protagonist.

Under-Earth takes place in an underground landfill where the debris from humanity is sifted through by prisoners considered irredeemable by society. The story follows several inmates who struggle to make a better life in a place with no sky and always under the watchful eyes of the prison guards. This book felt like it weighed like a hundred pounds when I put it down. It's hard to think about it without tearing up, because as I said, I do not relate to everything, but enough that it makes me have to take a deep breath. It's scary to see such dark feelings represented, but also comforting in a way to know that someone understands. Nagata Kabi, I hope that we both can survive.

Please sit with all that for a moment, and contemplate how you can work against these kinds of exclusion in your own environment. I did too.

While informative, the extensive descriptions of treatment at the hospital get a bit dull after a while, and her battle with herself over creating fiction or nonfiction manga got repetitive too. I also wonder if she was an alcoholic as she manages to control her drinking quite easily after leaving hospital. So it’s not even a story about overcoming addiction as she continues to drink, just in smaller amounts! Our main protagonist, Mia, is part of a crew that rebuilds beautiful and broken-down structures throughout space, piecing the past together. Like Alan Bennet says in "The History Boys:" The best moments in reading are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – which you had thought special and particular to you. Now here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met (...). And it is as if a hand has come out and taken yours.

A sequel of sorts for My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness, My Solo Exchange Diary gives us another look at mangaka Nagata Kabi's life and what happened to her after her manga had been published. I'm very fond of Kabi, the fictional/real person whom we've come to know since her first autobiographical manga "My Lesbian Experience With Loneliness". As a child, Kabi was the kind whom everyone forgot; they switched off the lights while she remained in the classroom, they forgot she was invited to other people's birthday parties, etc. Life didn't improve much over time, if at all. In this current entry of Kabi's likely descent into madness, she opens up about how she has abused alcohol to cope with having failed to live independently, find love, write fictional series, etc., to the extent that she caused herself acute pancreatitis for which she'll need to keep medicating herself for the rest o A series of essays about politics and parenthood, very relevant to today’s adults and the obstacles people face within their communities, families, and society. So, reading Rebecca Burgess’s colourful memoir, and other recent novels like Alice Oseman’s Loveless, can certainly help with that feeling even if many of us wish they existed while we were in school.

Nagata's approach to storytelling is simple and direct. The narration flows smoothly.
