    Killing Me / Killing You - Vol. 5 Ch. 19 - Theatre Of Pain

    Love the creativity and effort by the author, and also that really takes me back to the 80s, long before I had a console and before my first computer. Those books were a lot of fun as a kid, a different taste of "interactivity" even alone, and inspired more then a few of us to try our hands at...

    Ragna Crimson - Ch. 75 - Aura Control

    Fun chapter, as @Qwest said it's nice to have a bit of thought put into the details of systems in a universe like this, helps with immersion and emergent effects later. Also from a plot pov nicely lightens things as in IRL war. The situation is very hard, and they might all die, but they can...

    Shadows House (Official Colored) - Ch. 197 - Anthony

    Great banger chapter, thanks for the TL! There was plenty of speculation about potential for foreign agents and so on, but this was simultaneously built up to pretty well while still being a genuine surprise that explains a lot. And Anthony's strategic options here are brutal but extremely...

    Shadows House (Official Colored) - Ch. 194 - Undercurrent

    Holy moly, what a chapter! "Undercurrents" certainly is a fitting title, a whole bunch of threads of the past and present are all coming together and the various forces start approaching the point of (heh) moving out of the shadows. Even introduces yet another potential side: Yep, particularly...

    Ragna Crimson - Ch. 74 - A Half-century

    "Their" being the cult's. The dragon kings may have even more advanced options that actually perfect it, or make it work with sheer raw power. Though it seems they cannot revive their kin. But Crimson obviously has very advanced technology available to him, some of which dates from the modern...

    Ragna Crimson - Ch. 74 - A Half-century

    As far as Leo yeah it's not like it's not telegraphed given that she's on a giant magic circle like we saw the Silver Armament Corps using for its mass teleportation. Seems most likely it's some sort of special training thing, where someone can be killed over and over again by Gil then get their...

    Ragna Crimson - Ch. 74 - A Half-century

    I love the pacing on this manga, though I hope we get back to more slightly longer chapters. Still though yet more reveals, it feels in a natural way like the change Crimson and Ragna have wrought has started to have ripple effects throughout the world which are growing faster and faster...

    Shadows House (Official Colored) - Vol. 18 Ch. 193 - Operation's End

    Of course, that makes total sense and also adds a bit of an extra dark layer to "we should be grateful to her too" :(

    Shadows House (Official Colored) - Vol. 18 Ch. 193 - Operation's End

    Thanks for the chapter, that's not a bad finale at all with a ton of new stuff in play. The powers built over the previous arc, and the sacrifices made, did in fact pay off to some extent here. I think that significantly reduces any sort of "no real stakes", literally a Child did in fact die for...

    The Bugle Call: Song of War - Vol. 5 Ch. 16 - The Land of Facsimiles

    Another great chapter, thank you! The Emperor, and in turn probably the Pope, likely knows what the true original nature of their powers are. In retrospect and comparing examples we've seen between flowering and not, it does seem like the "base" usage of power is kind of crude, filtered through...

    Shoukoku no Altair - Vol. 26 Ch. 145 - The Garden of Labyrinth

    Thanks for the chapter as well. Looking through history, arguably one of the biggest final challenges in transitioning to modern forms of government has been dealing with almost a paradox of power. In order to defeat autocratic empires bent on conquest in a major war, it's necessary for a nation...

    Mokke - Vol. 9 Ch. 50.5 - Mini-Mokke 3

    Thanks for finishing this off! It's been interesting reading this in the context of reading Tsuraneko as well, which has a similar vibe/setting but with a 20 year difference for the author and some resulting refinements. I hesitate somewhat, but even so I'll toss out It's My Life for...

    Dungeon Meshi - Vol. 1 Ch. 0 - Oneshot

    Welcome home, one last time ;_; The incredibly well thought out ahead of time world building and characterization was a big part of the DM magic. Attention to detail made it really rewarding as a reader to pay attention to little things, like a real window on their world.

    Twinstar Cyclone Runaway - Ch. 8 - There's nothing you can do about things that have always been tall

    As I thought a few chapters ago, they (both of them but particularly Diode) have been getting their entire strategy all backwards. It's not just pointless but entirely backwards to try to put down their own abilities and "blend in", because that's just impossible for them given who they are...

    Who Decided That Blues Had to Be Cool!? - Ch. 20 - Blues Are Plentiful

    This is very late so dunno if you'll see it, but Mangadex had a bunch of issues and had to get reworked again ~3 years back into the version you see today. The transition process was pretty stretched out since of course it's all volunteer, and one of the things that took quite awhile to return...

    Shoukoku no Altair - Vol. 26 Ch. 144 - Red Snake's Bells

    It occurs to me that from one perspective even this could be part of his true revenge. He wasn't just mad at individuals even though sure he hated the emperor, he was mad at the whole system of governance that resulted in that outcome. If he simply became something of the same nature as the...

    Shoukoku no Altair - Vol. 26 Ch. 144 - Red Snake's Bells

    I'm glad to see this as the end game to finish this epic series. It's not just about winning the war dominating the entire series but if can they "win the peace" afterwards. Kind of the paradox of a world conflict like that, the kind of military, military economy, leadership, thinking, and...

    Urasekai Picnic - Vol. 13 Ch. 68 - Pandora in the Next Room I

    Kinda feel like at this point she should really know better and have at least as good a weirdness sense as us the readers. This is one of the Nietzsche-ish flavors of supernatural, the type where to Observe the supernatural is to give it special power over you in turn, even though it can mess...

    Non-chan to Akari - Vol. 3 Ch. 30 - Apart

    Excellent, the always heart warming power of friendship and bonds bringing the nearly lost back to the light and joy of life... wait a second..... What a ride!

    April Fool's Collection 2024 - Ch. 1.75 - Gushing over Magical Girls

    Amidst a sea of low effort text replacement this really stands out, thanks so much for giving us 200% this year as well as an amazing TL each time, such a glorious series deserves it. And also 200% best wishes to Ononaka having a smooth and complete recovery with hopefully a bit of well earned rest.
