Fair, and I agree. I just used that word because when trying to find the origin of that myth some years back the best I got was some very old advertisements. I just assumed that it was marketing that propagated and perpetuated it from there since it's something I've seen repeated from all over...

I'm always amazed by how many people constantly want to defend Utako. Even now she still deflecting and trying to run away. The grooming and collapse of her family may have warped her upbringing, but even at the end of this confrontation she was still giving herself an out by saying "if" and...

I'm curious to what extent this myth persists in Japan and East Asia in general. It feels like I see a lot of these marketing-fueled myths repeated in manga/manhwa/manhua. Is it just a simple case of various mangakas being uninformed, or something that persists in the general cultural...

Ah, so that's what her blep was about? Interesting of her to bite the tip of her tongue instead of the side like I do when using pain to restrain emotion. Gosh, the way things are being handled in this series is such a breath of fresh air... how lovely.:hearts:

Man, I'm unreasonably invested in this villain-of-the-week battle manga. The wait for each chapter is killer, but it's worth it for how entertaining it is. Really liking how this match is way more precarious for each side than the previous ones. Vivian and Paula are balancing on a razor's edge...

Uichi making us proud, and his mom proving that she's worth salvaging! :glee: Meanwhile Utako reminding us that she indeed is her shitty father's daughter~:wooow:

doing god's work; thanks for filling the gaps!:win:

Damn, this chapter was stinkin' cute and had actual progress! :glee: lol that apology message.

Damn, these last two chapters are making me wanna reread both manga and novel. Loved this arc to bits! :glee: Don't worry, you'll get to see plenty of it in the upcoming arcs. Patience, the author of this actually knows what they're doing in most respects.

The king handled that well. Hope things work out for him. Always refreshing to see reasonable authority figures, especially ones that aren't excessively sympathetic villains or the protagonist's direct associates.

wonder if the dad is a famous youkai like a gashadokuro or just super op unique skeleton?:thonk:

kek, been ages since I dropped this, but decided to check the reactions to this braindead "twist" and it did not disappoint. :clap:

I'm honestly starting to think this "all the dudes/chicks in this story are assholes" thing is just cliche that we don't get because of cultural differences. It feels super lazy. Something along the lines of: I don't want to spend energy writing any guy/girl aside from the main one so I'll just...

the same can be said for almost any other "X is the weakest, but I'm the strongest using it" story; very rarely is it executed in a reasonable or believable manner iirc in this case, it's because every other debuff user in this world has low success rate in applying the status effects, but even...

Yeah, that's 100% flirting behavior, even if it's "meaningless" or whatever.

I can't... my fucking sides! This guy is too much! :pepela:

I wish the fact that the slopfest this has become remains popular surprised me... :haa:

I concur. The shadowy trio seems to be Zulu, Mary, and Zayd from left to right.

Alright, I'm willing to give this arc one more chapter for its grace period to get the damn ball rolling. I understand thinking that people are being overly harsh, which they would be if this chapter existed in a vacuum. However, the last two chapters have been a retread of stuff that's already...
