I'm liking this more than I expected.
With the "Raijuu" nickname of the electric catgirl, I realized that most of the characters are based on various mythical creatures.
The famous werewolf, the hook-tailed isonade, the burning-wheel kasha, etc.
Hayase's genes have literally been trying to sleep with Fushi for over 800 years.
At the very least, her persistence certainly warrants it if she finally succeeds.

They're not really dying early deaths. They said that Hisame died after her daughter was all grown-up and pregnant. Aside from Hayase herself, everyone else seem to live just fine after passing the knocker to their successor.
They also seem to be living fairly happy lives, all things...

Phos' eye is a synthetic pearl, and the pearl is usually counted among the Buddhist Seven Treasures.
The mercury could stand for silver, since it is quicksilver. The platinum portion of the arm alloy could also stand for silver too, but maybe it doesn't count as a separate...
There are several other videos and short animations based on this too, though that specific video seems to be the most high-budget one.
Seems like the creators commissioned several animators to advertise for this manga.
The one thing I really like about Phos is their Frankenstein amalgamation of a body. It's a great blend of the standard Shonen-style "power-ups" and a visual representation of their personal growth. Phos is a literal example of the concept of the Ship of Theseus.
I find myself likening Lapis...

This SSSSS translator only translates chapters they want to translate and skips entire arcs they find boring. The /a/ translator is translating the current chapters in order, but they will do their own translations for the later chapters that SSSSS translates.
So this probably takes place in the distant past of It's My Life, judging by the birth of the first Nidhogg dragon and the creation of the tentacle plush.
@Seregosa Jeez, who would've thought that the guy that's been complaining and insulting the author across multiple chapters (especially complaining about being Shonen-like, no less; despite being a Shonen manga) doesn't actually like the manga that much.
