The series is on break November, so no chapter next month.

Your first observation is correct, the Japanese school year cut off is April 2nd. Saki is literally a single second off from having been the oldest of the next school year, but being born April 1st, she was the youngest of her actual school year.

The series is on break next month, so chapter 31 will be in June.

You're overthinking it. Ahko is saying she likes 100 Girlfriends because it's not a difficult manga, and in response, Kurumi says "You'd have to be smart to write a difficult manga." Meaning, because 100 Girlfriends isn't difficult, its writer must not be smart. There are certainly deeper...

I understand where you're coming from and all, this is clearly something you've spent a lot of time thinking about, but I suppose I'd say that it's worth bearing in mind that language is a malleable, living thing. What a word means today isn't necessarily what it's going to mean in a year, or a...

I don't think that's entirely true, and this chapter demonstrates exactly why. Mimimi, Hakari, and Rin assume from her gothic lolita clothing that she would be like them, and conduct herself in a graceful and refined manner (in as much as that's applicable to the aforementioned three). Matsuri's...

This is stated as though it's self-evident why it's ill-advised, or wrong, or simply something that shouldn't be done, but I'm afraid I'm not grasping why. Let me, for the sake of example, bring up Ahko and gyaru characters in general. These characters have a "distinctively" Japanese way of...

I know. I guess if I wanted to use a more natural expression with the connotation I laid out, it could be something like "I'm not the type to stay in one place" or "I'm not the type to dwell." I don't think the literal expression is completely nonsensical, but I'm aware it's far from common...

I don’t feel like “optimistic” is necessarily an appropriate 1-1 English expression in this context. The conversation has less to do with aspirations/hope for the future and more to do with moving on/forward, rather than dwelling on the past or staying in place. It wouldn’t be inaccurate to...

You can see that he's sending letters to Nonna and Kaushman on page 28. Bear in mind, by this point, both of them aren't too far off from how old Kaeha has grown by her passing.

@KimKowabunga The last page of this chapter indicates Thistle is confirmed male. If the official English volume releases call Thistle female, the best guess I can make is they took a stab at assuming without much information to go off of and got unlucky. Japanese is a language that makes it much...

@tantei_metal Chapters 1-24 were published in Rex Comics, before the series was dropped. When it was reserialized in Shounen Champion, those first chapters were published online, where the raw link links. It's currently a monthly series in Shounen Champion.

@d0v The series was on break in January. The February chapter is in the works, should only be a couple more days, at most.

@Raingott To answer your question, a direct translation of the Japanese there would simply be something like "Ugh, jeez!" Yes, it's a Hades reference.

A couple of notes: - Hinata's family has their own manga, a 4koma being published in Manga Town titled "Asahi's Large Family." (あさひ大家族, Asahi Daikazoku) - As you may be able to guess from the title, Asahi is the focus of that series. Asahi also has a minor cameo at the beginning of chapter 17 of...

A couple of notes: - Mikasa's surname, 大塚, would more accurately be romanized as Ōtsuka, Ohtsuka, or Ootsuka. I decided for the sake of a character's name, Otsuka would be the best option. - Hinata speaks with a very persistent Kansai accent. - Art of these characters can be found on the...

@assman162 No, this chapter just had very little work in the way of redrawing, especially compared to most chapters.

@Tamerlane A strike occurs if the batter swings and misses, or if the ball passes through the "Strike zone" and the batter does not swing.

Right, as a small note, the "Zwaang" is originally "Zukyuuun," which is the sound effect that I think originates from Dio kissing Erina.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention this until just now. The book, "Samurai Sixteen," is more than likely a reference to "Bushido Sixteen." It's a kendo story about a casual kendo practitioner middle schooler beating a much more stringently practicing one, and the resulting grudge following her into...
