    Sister and Giant: A Young Lady Is Reborn in Another World - Ch. 22

    Wendy seems pretty touchy-feely with Inukai. He's technically a sister so it'd still totally count as yuri.

    Asayake Refrain - Ch. 3 - Continuous Rhythm

    I kind of hope this doesn't go in the direction of yuri or romance. Not out of any objection to yuri in general but more that I'd rather just see the focus remain on being a musician and the ins and outs of that band lifestyle and the industry. Kind of like a successor to Buzzy Noise where the...

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 2 Ch. 26 - Oh, Pretty Woman

    Glad to see you're still able to upload here since reading it here is certainly preferable to certain other places that scanlators have been flocking to. That said, this was definitely a good volume and had a lot of stuff that gave me vibes similar to the Philippines arc from Section Chief which...

    Mou Ippon! - Vol. 9 Ch. 76 - The Experienced Speak Out

    I believe the names on the lineup sheet for Sakae on page 12 are incorrect. I've only ever seen their names listed as Otome Dan (Sanae's opponent) and Kurumi Soga (Michi's opponent). If it helps the Japanese wikipedia page has pretty much every character in the series listed with the kanji and...

    Harukanaru Ring - Vol. 4 Ch. 35 - Everything You Got

    The magazine it was in got axed. It doesn't seem like the author's done anything outside of this series either. For whatever reason, AJW would have matches with male midgets on the cards. I would guess as comedy breaks or something but they were always really out of place. I remember the old...

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 1 Ch. 9 - Mr. Lonely

    Katsuki and Akamatsu pretty much proved him right, too. They couldn't have given less of a shit about him and whether he lived or died, all they cared about was the company's image. Definitely a large difference from Nakazawa who likely would have been of a similar mindset to Shima.

    Skip and Loafer - Ch. 70 - Flustered Culture Festival

    I thought this chapter was all over the place and not in a good way. This is one of those things where it should have been decompressed and the events of this chapter take place over a few because it's just throwing stuff at the reader. I wanted to see more of her family enjoying the festival...

    The Holy Grail of Eris - Vol. 13 Ch. 62 - The Pursuer and the Captive Princess

    Maybe I missed some statements/hints somewhere else that already covered this but a lot of the wording in Xan's letter comes off as if her and the princess are lovers.

    Harukanaru Ring - Vol. 4 Ch. 32 - The Big Show

    It doesn't look like he has. In fact he's so obscure that googling his name turns up (ironically) a wrestler with the same one (he rules though, DDT is a great promotion).

    Ponkotsu Fuukiiin to Skaato take ga Futekisetsu na JK no Hanashi - Ch. 79 - The Story of A Summer Day of The Two Dumb High School Girls

    That design for Poe looks fucking terrible, jesus. Are all the girls going to be moe'd up in such a half-assed manner that loses all of the dynamism from Yokota's art style while having none of the things that makes moe appealing to people? That said, Yokota is one of my all time favorite...

    Kiyo in Kyoto: From the Maiko House - Vol. 30 Ch. 327 - Final Chapter: Time to Eat!

    You expect anything else from manga at this point?

    Harukanaru Ring - Vol. 4 Ch. 31 - This Sucks!

    Things like this are pretty common in Japanese wrestling, usually called a trial series or something like that and typically being 5-7 matches. They'll put a young wrestler against a series of established veterans. The point isn't for the younger wrestler to win since everyone knows they're...

    Onban Kikou - Vol. 2 Ch. 10 - Canción Para Mañana

    Wasn't Argentina under a dictatorship (either Peronists or a junta) at the time this chapter takes place as well? Feels weird to portray it as preferable to or more free than Chile since those Latin America dictatorships were largely the same in their actions and motives.

    Harukanaru Ring - Vol. 4 Ch. 30 - I'm So Sorry!

    I appreciate that Fujimaru likes Yu because she can relate to being a dumb violent gorilla.

    Harukanaru Ring - Vol. 4 Ch. 29 - I'm Afraid!

    I think it's playing some things up for kayfabe but a lot of Japanese promotions will send wrestlers overseas on what's called excursions where they'll spend a few months to a year or so as a way of testing them and letting them learn how to work different styles and crowds. In joshi, some...
