Maika's sister defending the family home from strange reindeer with a naginata like a real onna-musha? Yeah, we're talking about an old samurai family here if that wasn't already clear.

Quite a trip, but imo worth reading just for the very good but extremely Moebius-inspired art.

Quite the trip. The mangaka must have read a lot of the most far out stuff in the French magazine Metal Hurlant (Heavy Metal Magazine was the American offshoot). The art, which is very good, is heavily inspired by MH founder Jean Giraud (Moebius). Just look at the contour hatching techniques...

Nice and fun chapter. So, dear scanlators, now that Yesterday o Utatte afterword is finished (thank you) how about doing the last five chapters of Kuuden no Himegimi ? Please? I'd really like to finish that one. Also, for those who liked this chapter, here is a hilarious variant by Masayuki...

No need to know latin to recognize Lorem Ipsum. Insignem tenui fronte Leviathan Takigawa torret amor, Takigawa in asperam declinat Bahamoku; sed prius Apulis iungentur capreae lupis, quam turpi Bahamoku peccet adultero. No need to know much Latin to write that either, and I still screwed it up.

A young girl kills a wild boar with a stick? The school bullies better steer clear of her. I really don't like this kind of traps, if there is a problem animal either shoot it or use a cage trap. I guess the first solution isn't an option for a teenage girl in Japan though. Message to the...

What a fun and heartwarming chapter. It reminded me a lot of Minami-ke chapter 33. After a very strange way to tell a love fortune, almost everyone can tell that it's spot on. But Kana is as oblivious as Maruyama. I actually remembered the chapter number correctly although it must be some 15...

A letter via the Cursus Publicus could travel 80-100 km per day, considerably more in an emergency (like Rome on fire). Plinius sent and received letters this way as he was a VIP with an imperial decree to use it. A normal person, like Felix and his family would usually not be allowed to use the...

No, as stated this is clearly Kamala Haris, not Harris. Good, thicc choice if you ask me.

Well, this is Japan so it's not called Wendy's. Instead it's called Fakkin: "Maam this is a Fakkin" That's what Wendy's chain Fasuto Kitchin (First Kitchen) is called in Japan. Japan sure loves their abbreviations. Wendy's probably didn't know that when they bought up the chain to get into the...

When Alexei Leonov died four years ago, someone uploaded his own description of his 1965 spacewalk, the very first EVA. Pretty much everything went wrong. In the vacuum of space his space suit inflated so much that he could barely move and his fingers didn't reach his gloves. Eventually he...

"Hey, you standing there with an axe in your hand! I'll pin a murder on you and send you to jail for life. Whatcha gonna do about that?"

Thanks for the chapter. Where I live, white-tailed sea eagles are very common, golden eagles as well. There's an eagle nest on a shelf in a vertical cliff just a few minutes walk from my house, it keeps producing chicks year after year, so I see them often. Shiro is an adult bird (5-6 years +)...

Sure, but we were just told that Wasp-san is a (female) worker wasp, not a drone (male wasp). Unlike the queen, poor Wasp-san will get all work and no play. And even if she should manage to lay a few eggs, they will be unfertilised and turn into useless drones who can't even sting Ryugasaki's...

Just beat me to it :( Cage had studied Zen Buddhism and claimed that any auditory experience can constitute music, and so he came up with 4'33". Her mother probably wouldn't have been too impressed though. When I was at university, there was a "concert" performance of his "Branches" at the...

If Kanne is 150 cm or so tall, that water sphere should have a radius of approximately 6-8 metres, and contain around 1000-2000 tons of water. That should be enough to take out anyone.

I was wondering about who it could be, since it obviously was not Noguchi. I expected a clue or a note from the translator, but no luck. So thanks, your suggestion totally makes sense since the mangaka has had references to some of his fellow mangakas before.

We have them here in Norway as well, but I don't think many of them have money boxes anymore, even in those places it's electronic payment now (via smartphone). Like most others I don't carry cash around anymore, the last time I had must be quite a few years ago.

200th chapter? The manga is pretty much running on fumes now. The translator should have celebrated the milestone with a bit of creativity, starting with "What's a girl like you doing in a nice place like this?" all the way to "They (censored) the entire break until they were satisfied." I...

This must be inspired by the metabarons, first described in Jodorowsky/Moebius' "The Incal" (highly recommended).
