Thanks for translating these stories! I haven't heard of this mangaka before, but these stories all have a nice combination of everyday slice of life and the fantstical. Thanks for bringing this author to my attention!

I love that in Yor's fiction, Yuri just calmly accepts and even adores her killing spree. ... I don't think she is wrong.

It's rare to see this kind of manga with open ending on combination with of social commentary. And Hanako thinks it's nice to be left alone instead of being forced to act as others expect her to. Which it seems it's very much hammered into Japanese school children it seems.

Thank you for translating this early work. I love the other works by imitation crystal, but these here have the strangeness turned up too much for me. I'm struggling to see a point in the stories. But it is fascinating to see the contrast and similarities to their later works. Would be...

Thanks for translating this missing extra! This author really nails the dynamic in that family. You can see everybodies point and see why there is friction.

Manga has great art work and the black and white style is used with very strong contrasts like in sin city. But story wise? Very confusing and I am not sure the author himself knows what he wanted to say. Unfocused and with twists for twists sake in my opinion.

Oh, I thought you were referencing the time para-dogs joke.

Thanks for the translation! This author is nearly always very depressing (but in a kind of good way), but this makes happy ends like these ones so much more impactful.

Haven't read beastars yet, but do they explain how wolfs and dogs both evolved in this world? Because there are no humans, so there should be just wolves, right?

Yeah, we are talking about a time where everything was done on paper. "I processed your application already" meant it was put into a box where it will be collected sometime till the end of the day.

In the beginning I thought this was a metaphor about depression for the boyfriend, but that took a far darker turn than I expected from the cutesy artstyle. Nice twist by the author! The stench would be unbearable. Putting a corpse at body temperature should fasten all decompositions, meaning...

What a strange story. Does anybody know if the characters are based on another work? Am I missing a reference? It reads like a fairy tale with established characters and setting, like the reader should know some parts already.

Thanks for the new release! The friend is probably Corseltel?

Well, then the author should really play Spec Ops: The Line. It would fit into the narrative of this manga much more than the FarCry series.

Fully agreed. But I'm not sure if that particular thing isn't more on the reader than on the author side. Hell, sometimes it feels like certain people really only ship and see the story as unnecessary baggage.
