    Cell - Ch. 48

    I don't watch K-dramas, but this is the kind of scene that could earn the actors a prize if they do it well in the upcoming TV adaptation.

    Cell - Ch. 48

    Yeah, but to be honest, I don't get why he didn't just tell her the truth. There's no point in hiding it when Suhyeon can tell her the whole thing as a direct witness (and for all Sangwoo knows, he might have already). He could even make her more willing to cooperate by forcing her to accept her...

    Cell - Ch. 48

    I don't think I can recall a better mental breakdown scene in a comic, at least in regard to facial expressions. This chapter was a joy to appreciate. Good birth of a villain as well, face in shadows and all.

    Noise - Vol. 3 Ch. 22 - Secret

    Seems like the girl is as clever as the detective, damn.

    High School Mythology - Ch. 3

    This is very interesting, which is a surprise for a Kakao bullying webtoon. By the way, the author is playing with an aspect of Christian mythology you often see in exorcism manga and webtoons: that Satan performs fake miracles to deceive people. The ambiguity of this girl (including whether...

    Noragami - Vol. 27 Ch. 107.2 - White

    Now that's what I call a downer ending. Even if Father is finally obliterated, I can't see this counting as a victory unless there's some deus ex machina lurking around the corner.

    Yumenashi-sensei no Shinroshidou - Vol. 1 Ch. 6 - Aspiration: Male Idol Part 1

    Come to think of it, I really hope there's an arc in which the person does follow Takanashi's advice, chooses a different career based on "realistic" prospects and ends up being unhappy about it. And then in the second meeting, they decide on a tangible way of achieving their original dream.

    Yumenashi-sensei no Shinroshidou - Vol. 1 Ch. 6 - Aspiration: Male Idol Part 1

    Pretty sure her plot function is to be a foil to Takanashi: someone who also failed at what she wanted, but instead of using that experience to find a new purpose in life, she let the lingering feelings fester and became one of those "since I failed, I'll make sure everyone else who's chasing an...

    Yumenashi-sensei no Shinroshidou - Vol. 1 Ch. 6 - Aspiration: Male Idol Part 1

    When I saw what this was going to be about, I thought of skipping this arc because it's going to be painful to watch and the student might actually kill himself. (I doubt the teacher's success rate will be 100%.) But given what he did in this chapter, it's almost as if the author knew how...

    No Home - Ch. 217 - Again, Eunyung (2)

    That was his stated plan, I think in the beginning of Hara Kang's arc. Anyway, still self-sabotaging. At least the theatre club is being mentioned again.

    Versus - Vol. 2 Ch. 9.1 - Giants vs. New Humanity (Part 1)

    You know what… I've changed my mind. Looking at the normal humans of Neo-cruelty World, I think Alio will survive… while being disfigured, bandaged and having his mind broken, like Haiji and her companions. Given that he's a womaniser and an ikemen, and the pervading despair of this series, it...

    Yumenashi-sensei no Shinroshidou - Vol. 1 Ch. 5 - Aspiration: Train Engineer Part 3

    The solution was easy, it was there from the beginning, but isn't it great when things don't have to get worse before they get better? Glad for the lad.

    No Home - Ch. 216 - Again, Eunyung (1)

    At least it's a flashback, it's more bearable when we know it's in the past.

    Yumenashi-sensei no Shinroshidou - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - Aspiration: Train Engineer Part 2

    If you look far and wide, you'll find them. In the manga by Kanzaki Yuuya I translate, there's a good deal of criticising the Japanese police and aspects of life in Japan. Psychiatrist Yowai is a good take on the stigma of mental disease in Japan. Stateless was unfortunately dropped by the...

    Vigilante - Ch. 66

    Chief Gwak is the true tragicomic hero. We can see how lost he is from his facial expressions. Outsmarted by subordinates, bullied by superiors, powerless to change anything. Must suck to live surrounded by psychos who're cleverer than you.

    Versus - Vol. 2 Ch. 9.1 - Giants vs. New Humanity (Part 1)

    Well, he's at least going in style and won't give them the satisfaction of seeing fear in his face. And the artist is trolling us... the golden storm is blue!? Guess they're making fun of move names.

    Truth Weavers - Vol. 4 Ch. 16

    Apparently, healing is an extremely rare skill. We saw that Dahnya was patched up using bandages back in chapter 12. So yeah, even though he's weak, Leon's skill could be of use.

    Truth Weavers - Vol. 6 Ch. 31.1

    This time I decided to release the halves separately, since the first half had a decent size and ended in a reasonable spot. Just don't come complaining to me if the second half ends up being just 12 pages long or so.

    Noise - Vol. 3 Ch. 21 - Playing House

    Gotta give it to the detective. He's outsmarted everyone in this series, but cannot clinch a victory for procedural reasons. Not a single one of the villagers' schemes has worked on him.

    Truth Weavers - Vol. 6 Ch. 30

    They've split chapter 31 in two parts, but the first part is a good 22 pages. I'll think about it a little, and may or may not wait for the second part next month.
