Pokémon Manga Book Club
What's the book club?
In real life, a book club's purpose is to read a book from cover to cover and discuss it regularly. The Pokémon Manga Book Club is similar to that! Think of it as a group reading of various versions of Pokémon manga. However, we won't be reading any one manga cover to cover, since there are so many different ones that most people haven't read or heard of; instead we'll be reading a few volumes of various mangas, so you can get a good taste of all the options available to you in the manga universe!

What are we reading?
Well, young manga fan, we'll be reading chapters from 7 different series! However, some of them are oneshots (only one volume to the entire series), so technically we'll read the entirety of about 4 different series. Here's the list of series we'll be dipping into:
The Electric Tale of Pikachu
Pokémon Adventures
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Ginji's Rescue Team
Pokémon Ranger Batonnage
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blazing Exploration Team
Pokémon 7
Pokémon Reburst

How does it work?
Now all that's left is to explain exactly how it works, yes? We'll be starting our first chapter on June 8th. This should give people plenty of time to see the thread and prepare themselves! Every week I'll give you a chapter to read, and you'll have a week to get through the entire thing (don't worry, the chapters are short). We'll then discuss the chapter as we're reading the next one! New chapters will be "assigned" each Friday, along with links to where you can read them online or download them. Please keep all important discussion in spoiler tags, though, since someone may check the thread without having read the weekly chapter yet! The second post in this thread will keep track of where we are in the book club, what we're reading now, when the next chapter is assigned, all the important things. And of course if you stick around and discuss in the book club with us, you'll be able to add a shiny new emblem to your name!
