    Maitsuki, Niwatsuki, Ooyatsuki - Vol. 4 Ch. 21

    Not all side couples are created equal. For one, there's the question of how they actually relate to the main story/couple -- in this case, there's a reasonable argument to be made that they play important roles in Asako and Miyako's lives, so that's alright. The second question is how this...

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 8 Ch. 43

    Hmm, you may be in for a rough time if you're expecting anything serious to develop in that department. She didn't even do it in her prior manga, Manga no Tsukurikata, which had the main pair literally go out from the beginning. In an interview for that series, she stated she does not want to...

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 8 Ch. 43

    According to an interview, the inspiration for Maki was a model called Ikeda Miyuu. But I guess it could still be an additional influence.

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu

    The people scanlating the earlier volumes decided to skip volume 4 for some reason. I guess because it was technically covered by the anime, but there's quite a bit of content that didn't make it into the adaptation as well. I personally decided to continue where the last guy left off mainly...

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 7 Ch. 41

    It's because of Aya's overwhelming charm, of course.

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 7 Ch. 40

    The last page? I think it's actually one of the heaviest pages in the manga. The visuals - blotchy mist screen tone up top, empty white space below, face not drawn - aren't exactly cheerful. Eri may be the one who screams her love from the rooftops, but Maina is the one who is consistently...

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 7 Ch. 38

    Thanks, I wasn't really feeling the "yer" tbh, but figured only verb endings might be a bit weak (reading Ooyatsuki probably influenced the decision as well).

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 7 Ch. 37

    I dunno, your last sentence sounds like it's describing someone who is oblivious to me. I'd say most if not all otaku put the target of their enthusiasm on a pedestal, particularly idol otaku. Kumasa and Motoi don't exactly feel "worthy", either. Motoi obviously doesn't think highly of himself...

    Shy girl on one, oblivious fool on the other side.

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 5 Ch. 30

    I suppose they're performing in a questionable part of Tokyo (also based off the ChamJam reaction to Gotanda on day 1). She isn't saying anything about "working in the sex industry" but rather that it may have been the only time she will ever get to see Maina in a red-light district. So still...

    Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu - Vol. 5 Ch. 25

    They are a little less than three years apart, and when Eri started being Maina's oshi, she was still only a teenager (either still in or fresh out of high school) herself. So that's really not the part to focus on if you want to criticise the character for being creepy.

    Goukaku no Tame no! Yasashii Sankaku Kankei Nyuumon - Vol. 2 Ch. 7 - Superluminal

    Akira is such a shitty character. I hope this doesn't actually end in OT3 cause fuck her, just let Mayuki and Rin be happy together.

    Uchi no Musuko wa Tabun Gay - Vol. 2 Ch. 37 - My Big Brother

    He hasn't even hit puberty, just stop with the cringy "ACE!!!" shit. Is it really that hard to not project onto fictional characters for a second?

    Onnanoko Gare! - Vol. 1 Ch. 2 - Lesson 2: Styling

    2020 and Japan still has a boner for "all tomboys are secretly girly". Waste of good art.

    Just like every time there's a "lesbian" "main" character outside of yuri manga. But it's okay because muh bi rights. Representation of minority A at the cost of minority B is definitely a good thing.
