    Rice Shoulder - Vol. 8 Ch. 75 - No Words For The Loser

    Rats; I was hoping for such ironic dentistry comedy and tom-foolery. Then again, this does set-up the scene more strongly for the protagonist of this manga -- she'll win against the "evil" painted opponent and Ruby will come out of her hiding to show support for a realistically unknown stranger...

    Rice Shoulder - Vol. 8 Ch. 72 - Style Change!

    Honestly, I think we can tell that she's acting like the bossy twat she is because of her own bullying she's been getting. But, even then, I think we can tell she cares about her "prodigy" friend and this behavior is probably a mix of her own narcissism and some level of "keep her grounded"...

    Rice Shoulder - Vol. 8 Ch. 72 - Style Change!

    I just got introduced to this manga, having read the previous volume (7) and I am convinced that Ruby's "dentist" visit for "crowns" and etc. has nothing to do with "weightloss" and, like the giant Korean, was done out of pure vanity to have bright, straight, clean teeth for her announcement...

    Futari Bus - Ch. 24 - That's Right!

    Their town, "Azeno," is not a real location in Japan, no. Also, "Hanatani" town they both reference in this chapter, while not a real-place, is a Japanese referential play-on-words for "Nagatani Village" which was famously abandoned 20 years ago. Incidentally, to everyone mocking the foreigner...

    Futari Bus - Ch. 24 - That's Right!

    A very real place, yes. 44 thousand real places, in fact. There are well over 2000 Hachiman shrines in Japan, alone. It's a Shinto religious shrine built in honor of the Emperor Ojin. When Shinto+Buddhist religious beliefs merged in Japan, "Hachiman" became a sort of god/avatar (especially for...

    Futari Bus - Ch. 24 - That's Right!

    As a 188cm Dutch-man who lived in Okinawa for some years, I smiled the whole way through reading this chapter. I really, really enjoyed seeing an author depict a big, tall blond-guy visiting (politely) a quiet Japanese town. Good stuff!

    How Heavy Are The Dumbbells You Lift? - Vol. 13 Ch. 110 - Balance Training

    It's later revealed, by Sandrovich Yabako himself, that "Danberu" (which is the girls' 2nd & 3rd years of high school) takes place both during "Kengan Asura" and near the start of "Kengan Omega." Attached file related! It's his reasoning for how Hibiki's eating contest happens against Ohma, the...
