    Musume no Tomodachi

    I've rarely been this unsure what to think about a series. It just feels like a bunch of kinda screwed-up people in a messy situation, not an edgefest drama. It doesn't feel like a romance either. It just sort of is. @undercurses I hope you're right. Even with the age gap issue, that does...

    Gokushufudou: The Way of the House Husband

    @LethalDose288 Nah, they're both stereotypical yakuza - who also happen to have big, soft hearts under their very threatening exterior and end up in situations where they do family stuff. It makes complete sense to notice the resemblance.

    Shinigami ni Sodaterareta Shoujo wa Shikkoku no Tsurugi wo Mune ni Idaku

    Huh. It's everything I don't like packaged together. But I like it somehow. Maybe it's a casserole?

    Private Punishment Game - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - Part 6

    The 4-koma sets at the end of certain chapters were what made this bearable. I assumed from the beginning that the real girl was the one in the chair, due to their physical similarities and the comment about the other girl's voice being off in an early chapter. Other than that - hell, I liked...

    This Villainess Wants a Divorce! - Vol. 2 Ch. 45

    @redpandamaniacal He might be too sharp for his own good, if this poison really is as stupidly strong as they say it is. And, while I hate to say it, he might not have picked up that this is a test for Canaria, but is just looking for an opportunity to actually nail the queen and her...

    Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute - Vol. 1 Ch. 4

    What a stylish room to brood in! God, I love how this guy is basically just playing around, and he happens to be right all the time. Usually I don't like protagonists who always have the right solution, but there's this weird feeling that the world is actually changing to suit his chunni...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 1 Ch. 3 - I Will Definitely Get My Engagement Annulled! ~I will become a V…

    That dress on the 13th page is stunning. Sometimes, I suspect that the main reason I read otome/shoujo/etc. stuff is for the clothes, because they're gorgeous and the characters wear more than two outfits. @Krobelus I still thought it was hilarious how both leads were intentionally acting out...

    The Villainess Is Adored by the Crown Prince of the Neighboring Kingdom - Vol. 2 Ch. 5

    @Seraph_best_girl I'm guessing she's actually supposed to be the rival in the next game too, and the real drama will come from the new heroine. But this time she'll be watching out.

    The Villainess Is Adored by the Crown Prince of the Neighboring Kingdom - Vol. 1 Ch. 3

    Hartknights has such a great array of "oh god, we fucked up" faces this chapter. @jak I think it's a matter of perspective. I bet she came off as a real jerk to the players of the original game, but it really seems like that was a combination of her being a standoffish and blunt sort of person...

    The Villainess Is Adored by the Crown Prince of the Neighboring Kingdom - Vol. 1 Ch. 2

    God, I love the MC's "What?" reaction to this guy suddenly proposing to her. The later side chapter about his side of these events makes it even funnier. @KMoore I mean, it's a genre based off of presenting a man meat buffet to choose from, where you can go back through the buffet and pick...

    Slow Prison Life - Vol. 1 Ch. 3

    HAH! A short comedy manga managed to have more moral ambiguity in it than most serious series that intentionally try for morality painted in shades of gray. I love it. Can't say any character in this was actually a good person.

    Otome Kaijuu Caramelize - Vol. 2 Ch. 10 - Words From the Heart

    @Captaininvictus It's the whole "Boy Who Cried Wolf" thing. Put out something like that on one release, and people care. Put it on every single release like a tagline or a forum signature, and people will become desensitized and stop caring - then they'll start treating it like a joke. Same...

    Isekai Kenkokuki - Vol. 2 Ch. 13

    @SoloSera @firosahoge Something worth nothing is that democracy only really works when you separate political, military, and economic power, while eliminating personal loyalty as a factor in political decisions as much as possible. Most failure points in modern democracy or republics...

    Isekai Kenkokuki - Vol. 2 Ch. 11

    Man, I love this king. He's not evil (as far as we know), and he's not an asshole, but he's still a scheming conniving sonuvabitch - even if he's just trying to get the best possible outcome for the people of his kingdom and for his daughter. He reminds me a bit of the king from Isekai Tensei...

    Isekai Kenkokuki - Vol. 2 Ch. 10.1

    I just hope, for the sake of the decent king's plans, that this place allows polygamy.

    Sengoku Komachi Kuroutan: Noukou Giga - Vol. 3 Ch. 15 - Coming to Light

    Did you expect the wife and the side chick to be arguing over the husband? Nah, the husband and the wife argue over the side chick instead.

    I Am Troubled That My Fiancé Is a Villain - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - School Part 1

    Damn, Bern, it's only four chapters in - you don't get to be this much of a chad this fast. @icarushector Some of the stuff said earlier implies that Bern's a battle-style final boss in many of the routes not his own (probably fighting whoever the 'route guy' was at that point), but he's...

    I Am Troubled That My Fiancé Is a Villain - Vol. 1 Ch. 3 - Meeting Part 3

    It seems oddly fitting to have a villain in an otome game whose grandmother's and mother's lives were ruined (and possibly ended) by noblewomen trying to set up the 'correct' matches. I like having an MC in one of these stories that isn't worried at all about completely derailing the plot, and...
