    How to Fight - Vol. 1 Ch. 72 - How to fight and win against jiu jitsu

    @ikuze15808 Number 2 is impossible. We see in chapter 3 that until Hobin found the channel, all the videos had zero views, so nobody else has watched them.

    How to Fight - Vol. 1 Ch. 72 - How to fight and win against jiu jitsu

    @Legion_01 Very early on the series, the first few videos had subtitles. We can assume the author stopped including them because they cluttered the screen, but that they were there. And of course, in this world we've seen that Papago is the ULTIMATE machine-translator, so Gracie produced the...

    Akatsuki no Yona - Ch. 204 - One-Sided Love

    I'm more or less convinced that Soo-won hasn't read Yon-hi's memoir or Il' letter. He's too surprised when Yona talks of things she isn't supposed to know. Also, he doesn't seem to be aware that Il knew Soo-won was going to kill him from the very beginning (and that all this time he had been...

    How to Fight - Vol. 1 Ch. 71 - That's enough messing around

    @Heap Probably because even if we don't like or watch ballet, everyone knows how ballerinas start working on their strength and posture when they're very small, so it's quite jarring to see Hobin doing a successful en pointe in such a little time. I can accept getting abs strong enough to take a...

    Planetary Human - Ch. 56

    Is nobody going to call bullshit on Mi Eun, whose muscles are made of lead, walking into a cloud of electric discharges and coming out unscathed?

    Juujika no Rokunin - Vol. 3 Ch. 24 - Target

    @Talarczyk You mean it wasn't from the beginning? 'Cause this is so edgy I chuckle every time since chapter 2.

    How to Fight - Vol. 1 Ch. 70 - Win no matter what

    @ZeonII I think I'll stop here because you're talking in deliberate bad faith. Of course I mentioned MMA fighters who use capoeira, though you glossed over that part. A good-day to you.

    How to Fight - Vol. 1 Ch. 70 - Win no matter what

    @ZeonII Regardless of your background in martial arts, I think you're wrong there. In fact, arguments of authority are by definition invalid. First: the objections you're levelling at capoeira as a dance styles are exactly the same we see in chapters 13 and 14 levelled by South Koreans against...

    Akatsuki no Yona - Ch. 204 - One-Sided Love

    @tchen4 Hoh is the squirrel, she said that because she lost it when she was trying to escape from Hyoo-ri.

    Akatsuki no Yona - Ch. 204 - One-Sided Love

    @AverageCommenter25 I took a look at the chapter prompted by your comment, saw the credits page and was like, wtf!? as well. At least according to Google, it's true: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Sit-ups+record+for+men

    Akatsuki no Yona - Ch. 204 - One-Sided Love

    @PurpleLibraryGuy and others who raised the same point: I think they can be excused for not killing her. They don't know she's a former general. In their mind, she's just a poison-tongued Chief Mistress fooling around in a delegation, and not much of a physical threat. All they know is that...

    Akatsuki no Yona - Ch. 204 - One-Sided Love

    @Cicianna I was curious about that, too, when I read the raws yesterday. But as far as I can tell, there's nothing wrong with the translation. The original is 一方的な親愛, which translates as literally "one-sided love/affection". I checked the authoritative monolingual dictionary, the Daijirin, and...

    @freakofnature Wow, that's a nice one. I'll post a correction later, thanks!

    Task Force for Paranormal Disaster Management - Vol. 3 Ch. 9 - New Prime Minister

    @Tersione That's a trait in this mangaka. Inoue's stories are clever and enticing, but he has this penchant for black and white settings, white hats versus black hats, you name it. His villains are really moustache-twirling, straight out of an old James Bond film. No nuance at all. In BTOOOM...

    How to Fight - Vol. 1 Ch. 69 - Unbelievable, lol

    @BurnerAccount69 When I was cleaning the chapter, I was also wondering whether that was the case, but murder wold be juvie, no way around it. And his saying "you tempted me first" is the typical rapist mindset, that it's the woman's fault for flaunting exposed skin before them. For a sexually...

    How to Fight - Vol. 1 Ch. 69 - Unbelievable, lol

    @Legion_01 No, there are no clues in the raws. They probably left it ambiguous to prevent changing the age recommendation of the series. I can't think that he'd be able to consummate rape in the middle of a jiu-jitsu dojo without people rushing in to the girl's screams, so it must have been...

    Seven Day Alternating Personality Syndrome - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - Awakening

    @Binary10011 @Frazaell @StrangeStripes I'm not reading this, but… we don't just do gore, violence and thrillers, you know? We're the group that do Sprite and Deathtopia, but we also do Wakako-zake and Alcohol is for married couples.

    Vigilante - Ch. 41

    Ji Young has been more often than not shown to be overjoyed by killing or maiming his victims. No shortage of deranged smiling faces. His standards for killing are bogus. That's what makes this series interesting. As I said before, this is a case of a vigilante who isn't glorified by the story...
