    I thought everyone had realized she was mini quite a few chapters ago? Wasn't like it was that hidden by the time she got amongst the cars. Could be a vast number of reasons why though. What she said isn't reliable, she doesn't have any particular historical knowledge. Even if humans had...

    Front Mission - Dog Life & Dog Style - Vol. 10 Ch. 86 - STYLE:8 - Epilogue (Japan Today) Part Two

    Thanks for finishing this off. Was fun to blitz it. Best ending was two chapters ago with their finale, the post-war stuff, not a big fan of the super ghost thing. That said some of the actions by the public and authorities echo true in today's environment 13 years later which is a mark of a...

    Front Mission - Dog Life & Dog Style - Vol. 9 Ch. 74 - STYLE:7 - Return of the Shepherd (36)

    Still an awesome re-read, damn it takes me back. Which I'd discovered it a bit earlier. This was covered earlier when they discussed it. The entire point was that it was ultra-top secret and not even fair high level officers in the army knew about it. There is always a tradeoff between secrecy...

    Sousou no Frieren - Vol. 3 Ch. 19 - Ambush

    Fun! Author maintaining a very different feel from a lot of other series, subtly subverting typical decisions. Stark "I know what we have to do... is go find our party leader", no prideful monologuing just sneak attacks, probing for intel, etc. Good stuff. Not lingering too long either with any...

    Bocchi Hakase to Robot Shoujo no Zetsubou Teki Utopia - Vol. 1 Ch. 16 - Lonely Professor and Fears of Death

    Also, if this really is the end (and given he talked in the present for the first time and everything it seems like it might really be) I'm actually now even more interested to see what the author did for the rest. What were the professor's "plans nearing completion"? Will the professor still...

    One can do nothing but salute. You made it Professor. Utopia is here.

    Gushing over Magical Girls - Vol. 4 Ch. 17

    Also this is interesting given her interactions with Sulfur, puts some of that in a new light. Guess they were actually kind of mirrors of each other all along. It shouldn't be surprising that there'd never really be a "no-star" and that there could be those on the dark side as well hiding their...

    Bocchi Hakase to Robot Shoujo no Zetsubou Teki Utopia - Vol. 1 Ch. 14 - Lonely Professor and Happiness

    Yeah definitely bittersweet rather than just sad. Not in terms of the specifics but in terms of feel this really makes me think of The Talos Principle, doom for humanity might be inevitable but people are working, even through increasing weakness/sickness, to try to leave something behind for...

    Bocchi Hakase to Robot Shoujo no Zetsubou Teki Utopia - Vol. 1 Ch. 13 - Lonely Professor and Shopping

    @jackslate @greatninja3 I don't think that fits with that other researcher who's POV we follow in chapter 3 and who sees them and dies right before they can meet. Nor the corpse they find following a signal. I don't think the damage or growth necessarily looks like its been that long either...

    Creepy Cat - Vol. 3 Ch. 240 - Paint

    >phone cradled on shoulder >phone held by creepy hamster >phone has its own dedicated classy high backed minichair Hah, Flora is such an incredibly high class painter. Creepy's new look reminds me of those Parisian street performers with the masks even.

    Ad Astra - Scipio and Hannibal - Vol. 11 Ch. 69 - Resolve to Become a Monster

    Thanks for not just doing the translation but really getting these out. Just two volumes to go! @Rosen_Ritter I guess realistically that's probably how a lot of the best battles (from the POV of the victors) would go, "exciting" isn't necessarily a good word in the military. I'm actually kind...

    Sousou no Frieren - Vol. 3 Ch. 18 - The Undead Army

    I love the magic mechanics we see coming up as part of the world building. Here in particular we see a very classic one that's underused in modern works, wherein true risk/sacrifice on the part of the caster can great enhance a magic's power. It's like the traditional Irish folklore of geas...

    Ad Astra - Scipio and Hannibal - Vol. 11 Ch. 68 - The Tree and the Sapling

    Yeah as a practical matter it's always tough for an author of something like this to decide how much to devote to any given part. It's disappointing in some cases when some cool detail and worthy development gets summarized/skipped, and I agree that the redemption arc of the Cannae survivors...

    Sekai wa Owattemo Ikirutte Tanoshii - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - A Strange Looking Person

    Glad to see this ongoing! @sssr Agree with @s3yang, they also plain don't seem like they've got remotely the expected tech level for something like that. They could just be altered-Earth-bugs or something, are some intelligent species that hitched a ride to the dominant force, or their far...

    Ad Astra - Scipio and Hannibal - Vol. 11 Ch. 67 - A Beloved Woman

    @agtra Exactly. The whole saying of "sometimes truth is stranger than fiction" exists for a reason, there is plenty of actual real history that, if one read about it in a book labeled "fiction" would be universally considered unrealistic/unbelievable. But that's humanity for you. Sometimes...
