    Tonari no Jii-san - Ch. 24

    A good demonstration of the ways humans can act. So long as you don't see it, you're Letting Things Be Happy. Instead of. You know. Being responsible every single time you keep letting it happen.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 16 Ch. 142 - His Palate After Fifty Years (Part 2)

    Once again the authors grudge against preservatives continues, but I was fascinated to hear about the meat adulteration problem here.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 15 Ch. 136 - The Song of His Hometown

    Bravo on this accent localization job! I think this was a great choice to emphasize the same described sounds, and maintain the right sense of needing to focus a little to understand if if you speak a more 'standard' English. Especially since a lot of scottish dialects are, similarly...

    Silver Mountain - Ch. 8 - First Move - Part 3: A Gentle Stroke

    i cannot imagine anything more threatening in a work by this author then a seemingly helpless serene child with the language of a very old man calmly and slowly approaching a mass of armed soldiers. Your only hope is immediate surrender.

    Ura Baito: Toubou Kinshi - Ch. 204 - Auction House Staff ①

    Really goes to show how established the girls are- now they can get work directly from employers they have an established relationship with. Wonder if any grey workers have ever gone independent from the brokers... probably not for long.

    Net Keijiban Hyaku Monogatari Series - Vol. 3 Ch. 12 - The Round Hole in the Basement (Kitaoka Tomo)

    It's interesting reading ones like this- I don't speak enough Japanese to find these kind of internet horror writings on my own! But it's kind of charming how familiar it feels.

    Umimachi Diary - Vol. 1 Ch. 1

    This manga has a very sincere feeling to it. I like the exploration of this father who was a good, but kind of no-good man. It's like that sometimes.

    Seeds of Anxiety* - Vol. 5 Ch. 162 - ♭062 Rotation

    I love the sense of motion with this ghost- the placid, plain face, the rotating head as it approaches.... I think this is the kind of thing where just ever having seen it would be haunting. Which is this authors specialty, of course.
