Believe it or not, a stone chisel beats a metal knife for cutting mortises. Freshly knapped stone is really sharp - the main downside is that it dulls quickly and you can't reliably knap a new edge without a lot of practice.

Apparently in the other world, burglars stop to take a nap while they're robbing your house. Makes sense.

Ye gods this whole thing is silly. In America, dark skin is associated with slavery, racism, and discrimination. Blackface and whitewashing are pretty big deals here. In Japan, dark skin is associated with gyarus and the Japanese equivalent of rednecks. Farmers get dark skin from working in...

My mother kissed me on the lips when I was a kid. I didn't kiss my kid at that age, but that's because I'm a bit of a germophobe, not because it would have been weird or something. His mother did kiss him, though. I've seen friends do the same with their kids. It generally tapers off as the...

The writer really did an impressive job coming up with a creative way to end the manga on short notice. I'm curious if Alicia's motivations were planned from the start or if they came up with it on the fly. Either way, it's a hell of a lot better ending than most axed series get.

And if you don't like their size right now, just wait a couple panels and they'll be a different size!

It's not about thin skin. It's about time, place, and location. The term "fag" has been derogatory for decades. If you use it, you're being an asshole. That's why they use that term on the chans - because that's where everyone goes to be an asshole. This isn't 4chan. You can act like an...

I'm not one to normally complain about weak MCs, but this irks me. I never understand why this happens so much in manga. She's a psycho. She's tried to kill your friends. Her entire philisophy is 180° to yours. She obviously wants to use you for something. There's a difference between...

"A teacher once found her in the girls' bathroom smoking something only adults can smoke!" Which would have to be tobacco, as I don't believe there's any other substance in Japan that's legal for adults to smoke but not for kids.

I gotta say, so far (as of chapter 12) this manga isn't going anything like I expected. It doesn't go overboard with the whole "perverted old man" bit; it's there, but not excessive. The whole bit with the wolf family is kinda sweet. He's adventuring as a baby, where I expected a time skip...

This manga is like a fever dream. You feel like there's a good story in there somewhere, but you can't quite put your finger on it.

He's wearing more in the pants department than she is at the moment...

It's not NTR. He likes the regular personality, she's kissing the psycho. Personally, I'm rooting for a polycule with more members than bodies.

There's some good ideas here, but the execution is poor. The author either needs an experienced co-writer or an editor that can assist with storyboarding. The characters are flat - especially the villains. The story doesn't say what goes on during the multiple time skips, and it's difficult...

This is a good example of a manga where you can read the first third of the series and then skip straight to the last volume without missing anything. If you consider it as a complete work, it went on for WAY longer than it should have. Of course, it was serialized so it wasn't really intended...

MC: "I wonder what it's like to marry a 12 year old..?" Goes to wedding Priest: "Why don't you have a seat over there?"

The author of this manga is a genius. It hits all the tropes you'd expect, except that they're different. I'm spoilering this but I'm trying to minimize actual spoilers: One of the best parts is that the characters aren't annoying (except one of the sisters, but she stops being annoying...

Oh, I dunno. Christianity's a minority religion in Japan. Shinto's the dominant religion and the one with most ties to Japanese culture. They don't really have a concept of devils, angels, heaven, or hell. If my rowdy fishing buddies catch a couple whales and an ichthyosaur, I'd be amazed...

If they're shaped right, it's not difficult. You just crook your left boob in your left elbow and pull the right boob with your left hand, leaving your right hand free. As long as they're both soft, large, and round, the cleavage will seal up in the middle and can hold liquid. My girlfriend...

She's Japanese. Japan's got a lot of coast, so fish is a major part of their diet. So is pretty much everything else they can pull out of the ocean - seriously, every convenience store I went to over there had an aisle full of all kinds of dried sea critters. It was like Cthulhu's beef jerky...
