Public speaking is the second greatest fear. It trails behind the fear of death. If you can stand up with confidence, then you are a Chad, straight up. She could just be precocious. Lots of kids are these days. I'd want another hint from the author before I start seriously suspecting that.

You guys are my heroes (or invaders if you swing that way). Thanks for such a solid TL and for working hard to make the transition from Ranger When feel seamless. You're all awesome.

Once again a stroke of genius from the boys. Chestnuts are the sea urchins of the land. Only a true master chef would realize this.

Leonid is such a nice earnest young man.

Personally, I'd rather the story end while it's still beautiful. There are lots of stories out there which are written to death and kept on life support way past their prime. A good story ended properly can let us imagine how the characters will spend the rest of their lives, and we can feel...

I'm strongly sympathetic to his position, honestly. The Kami aren't perfect, but that's part of their charm. They're unique and fantastic beings deserving of worship and veneration. To see them reduced to impotent dying spirits is horribly tragic. Humans have much less to offer the world by...

But we have also seen vampires sitting in the sun just fine - for a limited period of time, anyway. Remember when they chased down Kiku and it became morning? They weren't burning up. It was also explicitly noted that freshly turned vampires are particularly weak to sunlight - which indicates...

Nick is actually 60 billion IQ holy shit.

Big props to everyone who suspected that sennin man was a time traveler. You might not have suspected him for the right reasons (he wasn't En no Ozuno), but he was a time traveler. I totally agree. I feel like some of the most interesting fiction knows how to blend magic and our knowledge of...

I never noticed that. Really good catch there. I think you're right. Probably has the same symbolic meaning as a crossroads, but with more of a message of deciding what you want life to give you. Since a lot of life is what we make for ourselves. You're truly a man of culture and taste, and you...

While most of the other rules were more certain, that one in particular rule was always unknown and flip floppy. Neither Kiku nor Nazuna's mom knew if it would work. At first the gang thought that it was Mahiru who would die. Then they learned it's supposed to be Kiku. Exactly what would happen...

Part of it is Mahiru's quote at the beginning connecting it back to her romantic plot thread, which he wished her well on. The next clue is her reflection on her relationship with Haruka. It was the realization that she thinks of Haruka as a brother which made her realize the meaning of her own...

Old man is moe now wtf

They're dropping it? God damnit I loved their localization. Japanese is such a casually formal language that most direct translations struggle to capture the authentic feeling.

I was talking with a friend of mine about this a few weeks ago, and he had a feeling that this manga was gonna end soon. The whole subnarrative with Mahiru began a few chapters in, so it would make a certain amount of narrative sense to end the story not long after its conclusion. And it...

"Title: Betrayal" Wow, I wonder who betrayed who???

The author's deconstruction of the executive tropes is just too good, holy shit. I have read these tropes so many times good god.

I don't know what his intention was per se, but it's just a feeling I've had. He always spent more time exploring the ethics side of stuff and the philosophy stuff than the romance stuff - even with the titular couple. You're right that there's plenty of minutiae they could explore, but most of...

This is one of the best stories on mangadex and I need more. I need so much more.

Idk. The main story always felt like a means to an end - the romance played second fiddle to philosophy. From the start, this manga has been super heady regarding the philosophy of human-machine relationships, the ethical questions related to the social integration of machines, and the breadth...
