A Place For Video Games

Hello, and welcome to our ‘about’ page. Here you’ll find basic information about our website and how to contact us.

As you’ve no doubt figured out by now, this is a video game website. Originally founded in 2011 as a traditional gaming forum, we now cover the latest news and releases from the gaming world. Our main focus is Japanese games, RPGs, and soundtracks, but we do occasionally cover more general topics as well.

Akayuki Archives

We’ve archived more than 500 articles from Akayuki – our previous gaming blog. You can find it here. Akayuki was a short-lived website run by @Zhaan and a few friends in the late 2000s, and it offers a variety of poorly worded video game news written by sleep deprived teenagers. It’s not the most spectacular content in the world, but you might find some nostalgia in reading it.

As a bonus we’ve also added a few articles from FFWorldwide, a now-defunct Final Fantasy fansite from 2006.

Other Stuff

Lastly, we offer video game screenshots and trailers on our Media page. And feel free to check out our ‘Sunday Tunes‘ feature if you’re into VGM.

As a side note, ManaJournal.com is not currently being updated and hasn’t been active since 2018. However, the website itself will remain accessible for the foreseeable future and we have no plans to change that.

Contact Us

We no longer use Twitter, so feel free to contact us on Bluesky if you have any questions.
