@qornanali Yes, but they redraw the order for each round. So it may be better to get people who you may be able to work with or people who can fill roles on your squad. Ninomiya picked two snipers! What up with that?

This chapter had all of the drama of your favorite fantasy sports league draft! Genius!

@Tamerlane @alacaelum @Kaduufrrj @RealSaMu It wouldn't be a TSA (Transportation Security Agency) agent but a CBP (Customs and Border Protection) officer inspecting international arrivals at a U.S. airport. Visitors from Japan (and many other countries) can visit the U.S. for tourism or business...

@Tamerlane Better study more for that Macro test, because Keynesian economics will work in any economy with a market component, whether the means of production are owned by the state or by private entities. All Keynesian stimulus requires is government spending to increase the money in people's...

For all the shit people give @Koolio about putting politics into the credits page for the manga, the author puts a hell of a lot more politics in it than anyone else. Keynesian economics as a prescription for deflation? Dang commonist. Japanese commonist to boot. @knecht Some have argued that...

Thanks for translating this! Just sad it was murdered before its time.

Saronpasu = Salonpas! It is much easier to use.
