"What's Mikumo got that I don't?" "Well, to start with he's the protagonist." (Actual answer: Tamakoma's secret sauce is a willingness to not just break convention - lots of people can do that - but to disregard convention's existence entirely. Lots of folks in Border could look at Chika's...

Cid's case is 2 advanced

Funny enough they're called 'soap operas' because they used to be sponsored by soap companies advertising to stay-at-home housewives who could watch TV during the day, before the modern commercial break was a thing.

Thank you for the translation

Translation is rough because the rest of that sentence ("So it's a _____ kind of thing") makes more sense if it's clear the phrase used is a common idiom, and choosing the literal translation loses that distinction. If I'd been editing this, I would have suggested something like "to each their...

The text in the raw is "郷に入っては 郷に従え", which translates somewhat literally to "When you have entered the villiage, follow the villiage's customs". No mention of Rome at all. The closest common phrase in English would be "When in Rome, do as the Romans" so it's a reasonable substitution in most...

"I'm going to punch the ghost now" Look, it's not titled 'Karate Tensai Isekai' he's only got one tool to with with here

"Here in the beast temple we take vows very seriously." "Seriously enough to explain them before they're made?" "Well ok, maybe not that seriously. Mostly they're a good excuse to fight."

I still can't believe they looked at it and went "the appeal of this story is that Shin is a Kirito". I'm guessing, from the fact there's a dozen folk with producer credits alone on MAL for a 13-episode show, it was a cursed production. The anime industry is stretched way to thin. Edit: I just...

The crow explained the reincarnation, but I don't recall them explaning the eyes. They also set up the whole Izanagi/Izanami/Ameterasu/Tsukuyomi tetrad (where mythologically the crow would be their herald) and this ending would be dropping most of that thematic setup.

So they're just gonna drop the entire magic eyes/connected to the gods angle drop? Let Dad get off with the whole serial killer thing? Man that's unsatisfying. Still time to deliver on the tragedy around the film's press tour implied at the start, but the cleanest window for that has closed.

It wouldn't be Junpei if the timeline didn't terrify all the teachers around him.

IIRC the details, The author was working on the next arc when their mother passed away. They had to move back to their hometown and stopped writing entirely for a few years. Earlier this year they said they started working on the next volume again but didn't have a timeline for when they might...

The mini-arc that bridges this one with the next one starts around 121 but the bit I'm specifically thnking of is 128-136, and specifically chapters 130 and 131.

Friends: "Hey, any manga you think I should check out?" Me: "Oh well there's-" Friends: "And not the ballet one." Me, quietly: Y'all don't know what you're missing. It's really good.

If they can find a costumer who the author is willing to approve, they can finally put a photoshoot of their most popular series on the cover. (I'm assuming this is one of the manga magazines that has models on the cover instead of illustrations, as part of the brand identity and target...

Checkov's Earplugs

That makes sense to me. In this model, I think I was reading the reflection backwards: I thought the mirror-spring was a sealed path between demons on the moon and the earth, but if we read it this way then the mirror-spring is a path for demons in the hand to reach out to the moon.

The dance is a sealing ritual that must be done to keep demons trapped in the moon. The goddess created the moon by ripping it out of the earth and the divine spring - which is on the hand of the 'dead' demon lord - is a giant mirror that would serve as a portal to let them return if the seal...
