    Task Force for Paranormal Disaster Management - Vol. 8 Ch. 25 - Joint Struggle

    Nope, Junya Inoue did it specifically to drive me, personally, insane with a devious psychic attack, and I refuse to engage with any other possibilities. I don't know why he hates me (maybe it's for my freedom), but he fired a shot across my bow, and this means war

    Task Force for Paranormal Disaster Management - Vol. 8 Ch. 25 - Joint Struggle

    You're extremely welcome, truly. I really, really try to get everything as accurate and informative as I possibly can, and it's something I take a lot of pride in (it's not easy, the mangaka is fast and loose with a surprising amount of stuff), so when I'm spending days I could be doing...

    Task Force for Paranormal Disaster Management - Vol. 8 Ch. 25 - Joint Struggle

    If that was the case, the previous wording of "this is what's written in the Hagakure" is really weird, right? I considered that, but given how notorious Junya is for mixing up ranks, gun calibers, and other details in TFPDM and Btooom!, I'm leaning towards "fucked it up unintentionally" tbh...

    Psycho x Past: Ryouki Satsujin Sennyuu Sousa - Vol. 4 Ch. 15 - Case 15 - Accomplice

    Wow, this case did not go at all the way I thought it would! Sure, having the evidence was pretty goofy on the part of the detective, but even back then these were common tricks hucksters and cult leaders would use to win over already impressionable people, so at least it works on that front...

    THE POOL - Ch. 2

    Hello, it's really nice to hear back from you! First, thank you so much for the update, I appreciate that you released the chapter, I'm a huge can of both Ajin and The Pool! Ah, I'm sorry to hear that he has no interest in releasing chapters for an English audience, his translations are quite...

    Kimura X Class - Vol. 3 Ch. 21 - × Class

    The redraws for this looked amazing! These last few chapters have really been incredible, I'm excited to see what the mangaka does in their next series, too. Great work as always, bro!

    Task Force for Paranormal Disaster Management - Vol. 8 Ch. 24.1 - Friendship

    Worse, it's hinted that the monsters were intentionally released by the US. Which is very believable ngl; what better way of obtaining valuable real-world tactical experience without actually endangering their citizens' lives? Also, Nimrod was on the scene and ready to help awfully fast, even...

    THE POOL - Ch. 2

    Oh man, this series has a ton of promise already, Gamon is one of the best at action, suspense, and tension, and he's now working in an environment you'd more expect out of a mangaka like Tsutomu Nihei, so I have no doubt things are about to get fucked up in the best way possible! Plus, he's...

    Psycho x Past: Ryouki Satsujin Sennyuu Sousa - Vol. 3 Ch. 10 - Unknown Person

    Yeah, italics and bolding characters aren't really very common in Japanese, so they often use quotations for emphasis (and they even have three or four types of quotation marks iirc) a lot of the time, but it doesn't translate super well, like a lot of quirks of Japanese. So when the scripts...

    Psycho x Past: Ryouki Satsujin Sennyuu Sousa - Vol. 3 Ch. 10 - Unknown Person

    J.U.M., you guys are really the unsung heroes of the scanlation world. Thank you for releasing this amazing series, as well as Ingoshima and others that are always worth the read. This case is already off to an incredibly interesting start, with the detective seemingly put into the body of the...

    What REAL literature are you reading now?

    Dang, I totally missed your comment on my first skim of this thread! I read The Brothers Karamazov in my first of uni, and it completely blew my mind. The richness and painstaking complexity packed into everything from the setting to the characters stunned me, and as the story developed, those...

    What REAL literature are you reading now?

    I'm about halfway through Hummingbird Salamander by deJeff Vandermeer, and it's one hell of a wild, entertaining ride. Can't recommend it enough, especially if ecology and climate change are themes you like in fiction. Before that, the last books I read (which I can remember off of the top of...

    Task Force for Paranormal Disaster Management - Vol. 8 Ch. 24.1 - Friendship

    I didn't even consider that, but now that I'm thinking of it, you're completely right. No doubt if it was Japan helping with a kaiju in like, uptown Manhattan, the US would be the ones blanching at unloading heavy weaponry on it. Or maybe not, while individual service members are extremely good...
