    The Otome Heroine's Fight for Survival - Vol. 5 Ch. 24

    There's an old saying in military circles called The Six P's. Proper Planning Prevents Piss-Poor Performance. Alia games everything out thoroughly before the few seconds of absolute violence that finishes off opponents before they can react to her and even begin to fight back.

    The Otome Heroine's Fight for Survival - Vol. 5 Ch. 23

    More like a cotton-candy nuke.

    Mezametara Saikyou Soubi to Uchuusenmochi Datta node, Ikkodate Mezashite Youhei toshite Jiyuu ni Ikitai - Vol. 9 Ch. 47.1

    There's an old tabletop role-playing game called "Executives and Elevators". Characters like barbarians, dwarves, trolls etc. from D&D-like games roleplay as corporate drones and office workers. Very meta in its own way.

    What's the least destructive way to despine a book?

    I've had success using a microwave oven to heat up the glue binding used in tankos so I can pull out the pages for scanning. Don't do it for too long, a few seconds is usually enough to soften the glue to pull them out of the binding. Longer microwave times can damage the pages by scorching and...

    Site loads so slow on computer [Firefox bug, maybe?

    I just tried this fix in my own copy of Firefox (132.0.2 regular). The occasional delay of 10-15 seconds between selecting a title and loading the first page still occurs for me, same as when the default value was set to 1. I'm mostly using Edge with Mangadex at the moment and it doesn't seem to...

    Watashi no Kokoro wa Oji-san de Aru - Vol. 1 Ch. 7

    I suspect they can't read all the "chicken-scratch" handwritten Japanese sidenotes, just most of them. They've missed out a few sidenotes in previous chapters too. Fortunately most notes like this in this manga are simple hiragana and katakana rather than handwritten kanji which is really...

    Watashi no Kokoro wa Oji-san de Aru - Vol. 1 Ch. 7

    Missing text translation, page 3, bottom left frame -- "もっとゆっくりでもよかったのに", roughly "I would have preferred you to go a bit slower". I find the translator's habit of arbitrarily breaking words in half in speech bubbles to be distracting and disrupting. They could use a QA on their team or at...

    Watashi no Kokoro wa Oji-san de Aru - Vol. 1 Ch. 6

    Untranslated texts, page 8 -- Eri-san, top left frame, is thinking/saying "下心がみえてんのよ", roughly "Your ulterior motives are obvious". In the middle frame she's thinking " はーいやだ" which is roughly "(sigh) - nasty". Page 11, Haruka and Corin exchange greetings, Corin says "Ohayo" and Haruka replies...

    Watashi no Kokoro wa Oji-san de Aru - Vol. 1 Ch. 1

    The scribbled text on page 26 reads "買ってもらった" which roughly translates to "Got him to buy it (for me)", referring to the notebook and pencil-thing Haruka is holding. The translation of the web-novel relies on a lot of machine-translation by (I suspect) a non-English-speaker so the grammar and...

    Paranoia Cage - Vol. 3 Ch. 44

    Call out to the old-school manga Comic Master J there, the "fourth option" on page 62.

    Akebi-chan no Sailor Fuku - Vol. 13 Ch. 74 - Man, I'm Lame

    Her name cropped up in chapter 7, "Full Moon Dormitory?" One of her old teachers reminisced about her when Akebi-chan was signing in as a visitor to the school dorm.

    Fujiyama-san wa Shishunki -- normal-sized guy and chonky tall girl in middle school. Sweet dorkiness, nice art.
