My gut instinct on the girl with the camera is that she's another sort of plant being, though this may just be her ahoge/cowlick looking like blades of grass to me. She does admittedly look more human than any of the other NPC spectators.

The word "miracle" here has nothing to do with Christian beliefs and everything to do with _Buddhist_ beliefs. In the Shinto/Buddhist melange that is the belief system of most Japanese people, reincarnation is normal. Rebirth is supposed to happen, but continuity of memories is not. That is...

Man, "I will still love you when you're old and have Alzheimer's" is very romantic. Of course, Arisa's demonstrated ability to repeatedly fall in love with Mari at first sight has got to help.

There's a note on a couple of the author's other series that they share a universe — specifically, the girls from Idol no Akahon appear, as successful idols, in Seitokai Yakuindomo. But this manga takes place in the same world as those as well! Flashback strips show that Shino, the Student...

Yeah, tvtropes calls it Instant Cosplay Surprise. It's one of those odd artifacts of visual media, like how nobody can see somebody standing just out of frame, or how manga and comics can have people reel off whole paragraphs of speech between punches in a fight. Nothing actually exists between...

Okay, it's great that the friends who were mocking her were actually in on the presentation the whole time. Also amusing that Komimom actually was older than 17 for a bit.

I like the game. Very clever way to make a word game from the basic spine of "Werewolf", AKA "Mafia". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mafia_(party_game)

The spray here isn't the kind that Westerners would think of as an antiperspirant — a (usually scented) deodorant with perspiration-inhibiting chemicals — but an "instant ice" spray. In the West, they're primarily used as sports medicine or first aid supplies, to treat injured muscles, but...

@ansonh92 — only the teacher could pick up dropped items during the test. Beyond that, Satou does what she's asked; she doesn't seem to pick up on unvoiced needs.

Oh, he's the class's other mindreader, Kometani — the "commentator". He was introduced back in c102 explaining Naruse's narcissism to the audience. He's popped up periodically since, snarking at other people's thought balloons and inner monologues. I assume, from his positioning and when he...

… honestly, I'd say that the multiple chapters of a girl confessing her love for, and making sexual advances of varying degrees of subtlety at, another girl probably out-gays a few guys playing "let's pose beefy", but maybe that's just me. Though Komi seems to keep getting these accidental...

Well, presumably, when we're considering things that it's not normal to be able to do — fly by flapping your arms, construct a replica of Tokyo Tower from toothpicks without using your hands, apply for Social Security disability benefits and be approved on your first try — then he can't do...

Hah — I had to look it up to double-check, but "Mori no Kuma-san" is indeed the Japanese translation of "The Other Day I Met a Bear", a great old classic camp song written in 1919. (It's the same tune as "Sipping Cider" or "Princess Pat", if that's more familiar.) The Japanese lyrics go back...

This is my first read-through, but it looks as if when Najimi was moving around so often that they became childhood friends with the bulk of Japan, they switched which gender they presented as each time, or possibly even more frequently than that — so it's not that Najimi was presenting as male...

Fujioka is the true hero of the manga.

Ah, page 13 has jealous Shiburin~

Okay, I wasn't expecting PPG KoumeRyo in the New Generations manga, but I'll take it. I think the called-out panel's mysterious figure is the first time Koume's "That girl" has been depicted.
