    Anta to Osananajimitte dake demo Iyananoni! ~Zekkou kara Hajimaru S-kyuu Bishoujo to no Gakuen Nariagari Seikatsu~ - Ch. 5

    Ah I see I'm not the only one who noticed. Yeah this is just kind of nonsense.

    Anta to Osananajimitte dake demo Iyananoni! ~Zekkou kara Hajimaru S-kyuu Bishoujo to no Gakuen Nariagari Seikatsu~ - Ch. 5

    I honestly kind of dislike like this, I don't know if it's an actual trend but trope of "childhood friend who is in an abusive relationship with the protagonist". This one moreso than that other one where the protagonist and the childhood friend are seemingly in the same income bracket and were...

    Are There Any Examples of Manga Adaptations of Light Novels That Reached The Ending of The LN?

    So I would take it to mean you live in Japan currently, or have you visited? At least from what we can see in the States movies are often a gateway to get people, although not everyone, into reading the books they are based on. You know like they'll even have those new editions that say "based...

    Are There Any Examples of Manga Adaptations of Light Novels That Reached The Ending of The LN?

    I believe that's the same angle that Observation Log of the Villainess took, although I'm not 100% clear on it; and I think that's a much better approach. At least in my experience reading webnovels, there oftentimes are "jumping off points" where there is a relatively satisfying ending for...

    Are There Any Examples of Manga Adaptations of Light Novels That Reached The Ending of The LN?

    An original light novel that got a manga adaptation. Not a manga that got a novel adaptation. I don't care about the genre or year, but I am more interested in more recent ones as in maybe the past 10 years. Lastly, yup matching the ending of the original work or I suppose at least being...

    Are There Any Examples of Manga Adaptations of Light Novels That Reached The Ending of The LN?

    When I say "light novel" here, I also mean "web novel", but also I question how many web novels with manga adaptations don't have a light novel version as a step in between the two. It's kind of interesting how the belief that the web novel is the end all be all of the narrative of the manga is...

    Daiakutou Shonen - Ch. 9 - The Once-Again-Lone Great Villain

    Possibly but it's so hard to tell; they do seem to maybe have blonde (or maybe like a blonde pink?) hair I also wonder if this is some degree of a fake out but it's hard to tell this early on; like he definitely is getting scapegoated (ha punny) right now and that could lead to an ending like...

    What's a fad you're glad it's gone away?

    It's hard to tell sometimes; these translated manga sometimes reach us from across time and space, or in the case of adaptations, mediums where they may have existed years or decades prior. It's hard to think of them moreso than things I want to come back, almost? I feel weird on this one...

    Why do we have so shitty dragon main characters?

    So I flicked through this; mostly what you said; the Eragon Series (The Inheritance Cycle) is one of my favorite book series, and yeah Sapphira is...I want to give an opinion but I don't want to be wrong; I remember the dragons possessed a lot of intellect from birth (and some wisdom as well)...

    Yachiru-san wa Homeru to Nobiru - Vol. 2 Ch. 5.1 - Transformation

    What counts as a yokai? Is it just folklore or stories in general? If we believe hard enough in hot big muscle mommy onis, can we establish world peace?

    Tokimori-san ga Muboubi desu!! - Ch. 68 - Tokimori-san and overtime

    Just in time to see them become a couple after not reading for a few years. I'm glad I got to see it because the re-read up to that point was the definition of "If this guy and/or girl don't confess I'm going to crash out"

    Dungeon Nursery

    I think this is one of the first isekai I ever read. And on top of that, probably one of the best! If you're someone who is tired of isekai tropes, this is pretty void of them at least in the stereotypical sense. It's maybe not a parody, but 100% a comedy. It also is a pretty quick read, and...

    Daiakutou Shonen - Ch. 9 - The Once-Again-Lone Great Villain

    I didn't consider that he's dead in that two page opening; kind of implies that everyone or almost everyone involved is dead even, heroes or villains. I hope you're wrong; that could be a poetic ending but it would be sad for a kid to die like that.

    Boku dake ga Shitterun daze - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - Online Friend

    Honestly after my short-term memory loss I just assumed it was like that because of standard slice of life romance male protag quirkiness Edit: Oh ok I reread and I can see why now: They tend to frontend each chapter with the male lead's life outside of school and backend the chapter with the...

    Boku dake ga Shitterun daze - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - Online Friend

    I no longer understand what the difference between shonen and seinen is. I guess it's just target demographic but the content can be anything? Never thought about it like that.

    Boku dake ga Shitterun daze - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - Online Friend

    The rival finally appears? Maybe I'm forgetting the start but I didn't remember that he was a shut-in prior to this story. He really doesn't show it with how willing he is to take the initiative socially, even if it often is for the sake of his crush. I am a bit sad the online friend didn't...

    Any Tamer/Summoner/Creature Collector Manga Recommendations?

    Oh yeah, definitely more popular in manhwa and manhua. Or at least, it's easier to find and framed in a more specific way. This suddenly reminds me that Zatch Bell sort of fits the criteria, there also was one in Shonen Jump that got cancelled.
