    The Bugle Call: Song of War - Vol. 5 Ch. 14 - Plans for the Future

    Another superb chapter, it's continually refreshing how self-reflective the characters are, flawed but aware of it, and the story doesn't hit readers over the head either lots of sides can have points. It was definitely fun to see Lucas suddenly wake up a bit to the differences between the...

    Sekai wa Owattemo Ikirutte Tanoshii - Vol. 4 Ch. 28.2 - World Is Beginning

    A solid "end of the beginning"! I still enjoy the overall tone of feel of this, and am actually pleasantly surprised all this was only a first chapter and it's done well enough to go beyond the end for once. I'd be more than fine with a "day after" without there necessarily being any massive...

    The Princess of Sylph (Twitter Version) - Vol. 1 Ch. 29

    This is from the previous chapter thread but this chapter kind of furthers my feeling on it: I disagree a significant amount: the people themselves are absolutely at fault too. I dislike the idea that "the people" are just complete sheep unable to do anything and with no responsibilities of...

    Shy - Vol. 13 Ch. 106 - The Children's Declaration, Once More

    Yeah, agreed entirely with comments so far albeit with one minor asterisk and I hope he gets confronted on it hard. The criticism buckets include: "Childhood is a time of innocent happiness", even to the extent that it's true, is actually quite a modern product of both specific morality...

    The Fed-Up Office Lady Wants to Serve the Villainess - Vol. 3 Ch. 13

    It's easy to forget in these stories since so many authors dispense with it before the end of the chapter 1, but at the end of the day these are in fact teenagers at school, with all the hormone and immaturity driven drama, insecurities, competitiveness etc that can entail. However much those of...

    Rosen Garten Saga - Vol. 9 Ch. 54 - Shrine ~Austausch~

    I love many, many things about this incredible manga, but one is how even "side characters" can be incredibly useful with canny and skilled use of their abilities. Nobody ever is just forgotten about, and over and over we see times where raw power alone isn't enough. Tsuchigumo's illusion has...

    Shadows House (Official Colored) - Vol. 17 Ch. 179 - The Curse's True Form

    Thanks for the chapter as always! Relatively good outcome for the Children this time. Oliver team made an important and useful discovery, lost in a believable way but also while making a fairly impressive demonstration. It remains unfortunate they've been cornered into having to reveal things...

    Kabushiki Gaisha Magi Lumiere - Ch. 93 - Restart

    Yeah, I did my own version of your rant previous chapter. It does feel really strange, while it wasn't incredibly genius pre-recent test things were plenty fun enough overall. But in these last chapters it feels like it's done this incredibly sudden nose dive into the intelligence pavement. And...

    Shimeji Simulation - Vol. 5 Ch. 49 - 🍄 🍳

    Wow, what a trip, feel lucky to have been able to experience it at each step "live" so to speak. Feels even more relevant now in some ways with the explosion of AI stuff in just the last year, and the ending fits in a gray way. Things aren't perfect, the world was not restored, humanity has...

    Soukyuu no Ariadne - Vol. 22 Ch. 216 - Settling Matters in the Future

    Norihiro knows how to do a solid final battle, though compared to Claymore I think this series was a little more epic and a lot more varied on the journey but a bit less in the finale, probably because we never really got anything deep on Barbaros. Definitely feeling a touch of bittersweet here...

    Ragna Crimson - Vol. 14 Ch. 69 - Flesh And Bone

    Slime-senpai the Adult once again proving why he's the #1 Servant while the others bicker over #2 :salute: Also interesting spread there for all the Original Kings I'd assume. Banko is probably bones, which points to the girl in Crimson's flashback to the past when the final nukes were going...

    Usuzumi no Hate - Vol. 2 Ch. 14 - Military Archives of the Old World

    Displaying some kindness and mutual interest isn't "being too soft" damn it, none of us nor our species got so far alone. It's not unbelievable even in the face of disaster there'd still be people who'd let petty prejudice and tribalism splinter and hurt a group but still sad. Hopefully there...

    Karappo no Shoujo to Niji no Kakera - Vol. 3 Ch. 17

    Thank you for finishing this series! Though a simple enough tale at heart and perhaps a touch rushed/over simplified in the ending, it had some real charm and creativity to it too, a fantastical style that has sadly become rarer. I too look forward to what the author does next!

    Nick & Lever - Vol. 3 Ch. 106.5 - Making Curry pt. 2

    One ultimate secret to great eating: great friends and family :glee: Happy Thanksgiving or equivalent to all my fellow celebrators. Whatever you're eating, here's to eating it together!

    【OSHI NO KO】 - Ch. 132 - NINO

    The entire point of Aqua's reveal of them and plan is to make sure he knows? Aqua had hit a dead end in terms of tracking Hikaru down and bringing him to justice/getting revenge, and deduced that he must have a certain amount of protection from powerful/well placed people. Coming out in such a...

    Rosen Garten Saga - Vol. 9 Ch. 53 - Touch ~Fantreffen~

    Follow the path of the swords, Sieg didn't use it against Arthur at all he used Mimung and instead hit Alibaba again, though Ali tanked the orgasm bit with sheer charisma again like a badass. But it's a nice detail that at the finale Sieg didn't even go for that, he was already satisfied.

    Rosen Garten Saga - Vol. 9 Ch. 53 - Touch ~Fantreffen~

    Remember there is still the absorption rule, it matters not merely that you win but how you win in terms of earning support next time. A true King wins over not just his opponent's bodies but their minds and spirits.

    Rosen Garten Saga - Vol. 9 Ch. 53 - Touch ~Fantreffen~

    You should know well that the greatest performers know how to save the best for last, and keep their cards close until the very end! It's another amazing thing about RGS that amidst a massive cast of absolutely pure awesome for dozens of chapters where the putative MC at the core of the entire...
