Animal Crossing New Horizons: Deserted Island Diary Free Comic Book Manga (2023)
I read a LOT of manga when I was younger, mostly from independent scanners and editors. Now that I’m working on archiving some items of mine, I understand how time consuming the process can be. Granted, I don’t edit or translate the text of the things I scan, but scanning and formatting a book or comic can be a lengthy process.
Today I decided to scan my copy of the free comic book day Animal Crossing manga. I got it from a comic book store my partner and I visited while on vacation last month.
It includes the first chapter of the Animal Crossing: Deserted Island Diary manga, as well as an excerpt from the manga Kirby Manga Mania.
I personally am not that into comedy/exaggeratedly goofy manga, which these both are. I’m more into shoujo and serious drama stories. But I couldn’t resist a free book, so I grabbed one on my way out of the store.
This sounds silly, but I had a lot of fun editing these scans. Below are a few of unedited pages along with the pages I edited to be more clear/get rid of the printing on the other side of the page that was showing through.
I think they turned out good! I know it’s a silly thing no one other than me cares about, but I thought they turned out nice.
The Animal Crossing manga is about four villagers arriving on the island and adjusting to island life. Shenanigans ensue.
My favorite part of the Animal Crossing section is Tom Nook, Timmy, and Tommy. They're so cute!
The Kirby manga is a Beauty and the Beast-like story. King DeDeDe gets turned into an ugly toy, and he needs to feel true kindness in order to turn back into his normal form.
The art style is a bit off putting for me personally. Here’s a couple examples.
But like I said, I’m not really into over-the-top comedy manga. The expressions are supposed to be exaggerated and crazy, so it works for that reason.
It's just not my cup of tea. I did get a chuckle at this part where it says Toy DeDeDe lost all hope and notices he glows in the dark while crying.
If you’d like to read the comic and see higher quality scans, feel free to check it out on my Internet Archive account.
Thanks for reading!

I got a 2-sided Timmy and Tommy pillow from Burlington Coat Factory!
Also, while I was at the store, I found a hilarious typo on one of their products...
It reads, "keep chigging", it's supposed to read, "keep chugging"!

i forgot i downloaded an extension to make Tommy occasionally chime in whenever there's a paragraph break (<p> or whatever the code source says) and everytime i see it while doing schoolwork it fills my heart with such a simple yet fulfilling joy. ...joy.
(he showed up writing this post :))

my Bamboo Triangle is growing! When this comes in I'm gonna try to make a bigger version of it, gonna be so cool, yippie!
Also Nook's Cranny is open now! can't wait to spend half my time in there looking for stuff than actually buying! (I'm surprised Timmy and Tommy haven't tried kicking me out yet.)
But anyway, here's this little photo, yippie!
In other news! This guy named Pietro came into the Campsite, and I begged asked him to move in, I love clowns so much, yippie!

I just love that Buck's bisexual awakening was this absolute unit of a man who is even bigger than he is & is realistically probably in his 40s. Like yeah, give some love to the hunky older men, I get you Buck. I get you.

something something buck always letting his partners leave him after anything goes wrong because he expects them to leave and not chasing them
then him usually ignoring the advice he was given about communication from the 118
vs buck sitting down with tommy and being honest that he doesnt know what he wants but is willing to try and find out
