    The Days of Diamond - Ch. 81

    Another painful chapter. On one side we have the coaches discussing how their training style makes the children more business/career-oriented, which is bad enough. On the other, we see how very career-oriented Tokio is clashing with Jiro and making impossible demands without even admitting to...

    Amateur Vigilante - Vol. 2 Ch. 12 - Nauseous Memory

    Yeah, that's when I dropped the story. I have no problem with suspending my disbelief with outlandish manga like this one, but if a manga proposes to be realistic from the beginning and then violates that without rhyme or reason, I can't deal with the whiplash.

    Oh, come on, not even the NSA could erase everything.

    Vigilante Part 2 - Ch. 21

    Because he told Jiyong to look Kim Jeong-uk up in the lawsuit records, instead of telling him there's no Jeong-uk and the name is Yeong-hwan, he implicitly acknowledged knowing a name he isn't supposed to know, and which isn't supposed to exist. Jiyong now has evidence to get a warrant against...

    Posting before the other chap does: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%B9%E3%82%AB%E3%82%A4%E3%82%BF%E3%83%AF%E3%83%BC41#/media/%E3%83%95%E3%82%A1%E3%82%A4%E3%83%AB:Sky_Tower_41_in_Kaminoyama_(14676522452).jpg I'm not trying to imply you're wrong. Clearly this illustrates your point, and its...

    Amateur Vigilante - Vol. 2 Ch. 11 - Tower Mansion

    Ooooh, so that's why Change the World begins in a ruined love hotel in the middle of a forest. I translated the entire series but didn't know about it. I knew the real estate market in Japan is corrupt, but didn't know how much. Thanks for the info.

    Amateur Vigilante - Vol. 2 Ch. 11 - Tower Mansion

    How convenient that the yakuza spawn has a whole freaking building in the middle of nowhere. I can't with this series, it's so ridiculous I can enjoy it without any problems with suspending disbelief.

    The Days of Diamond - Ch. 80

    Welp, this is what happens when adults get in the way of the kids' fun. It's sad that the tension of referrals and scouting, something imposed from above and beyond their control, is putting bright kids, who share a passion for baseball and should thus be best friends forever, at each other's...

    I Can’t Date My Student… Can I? - Ch. 11.1

    I'll say it again: there's nothing remotely controversial in this manga. And to get it out of the way, I'd have zero qualms with a gender-reversed situation. Why? Because there was nothing wrong with the marriage of Oona O'Neill and Charles Chaplin. He was 54 and she was 18. They eloped to...

    Prey - Vol. 2 Ch. 3 - Hunters (3)

    If nothing else, the chase scene at the end of this chapter pretty much confirms that she's not human. Minji's super-punches in the end of the first season were solely by the monster arm, but this "girl" is climbing walls. Also, she was using the box-cutter that the siblings left on the rooftop...

    Amateur Vigilante - Vol. 2 Ch. 10 - Bonds And Promises

    Yep, Abe's has been called "the most successful political assassination in recent history". And Yamagami might yet escape capital punishment. Art is always lagging life, in a way.

    The Days of Diamond - Ch. 79

    This Takada person is being played up to be Jiro's forerunner with legendary status, but I have the impression Jiro will outshine him very obviously if they ever face off (like, in high school or Major League), given that Namiki had the hunch our protagonist might become the greatest pitcher...

    Prey - Vol. 2 Ch. 2 - Hunters (2)

    Great, now we have Doppelgängers. This is gonna get messy. But I'm pretty confident the one in school uniform who got knocked out is the real Minji, because she's got the extra monster arms sprouting off her right arm, whereas the one with the cap and the box cutter had her own arm turn...

    Amateur Vigilante - Vol. 2 Ch. 9 - A Rebel

    That stab isn't fatal, it's shallow and right below the chest. There's only the stomach in that area and it needs to dive deeper to hit it. Sarama's gonna get dragged around a little longer, it seems. And apprentice acquired, heh.

    Vigilante Part 2 - Ch. 20

    I seriously doubt a highly skilled vet wouldn't know succinylcholine can be traced from the severed fingertip. The simplest way would be to wait long enough for it to be cleared from the body before cutting the finger. I find it really interesting how Gang-ok is unflinchingly loyal to Jiyong...

    Beethoven Reborn - Vol. 1 Ch. 34

    I've explained in response to your comment on chapter 32. A couple more details: he lived and recorded in the interwar period, and soon after WW2. And he didn't like rehearsing too much. He pursued a more fluid performance.

    Beethoven Reborn - Vol. 1 Ch. 32

    Wilhelm Furtwängler was one of the greatest conductors in the history of recorded classical music. He was long associated with the Berliner Philharmoniker, and an authority on Beethoven, having studied musical theory under Heinrich Schenker.

    Beethoven Reborn - Vol. 2 Ch. 52

    I'm curious what Jihoon's role is at this point. Kid's taking L's from even Dobin's students. I don't like that the author seems to have created a character with the sole purpose of being a foil to Dobin, and now it seems his only role in the story is to suffer from being outdone by everyone.

    Amateur Vigilante - Vol. 2 Ch. 8 - Surpassing Expectations

    Souchi is right: he planned everything and wanted to be found. Souchi remarked on chapter six that Ojiro had kept him captive for shooting practice for days, so I imagine he also used this time for preparations. He wasn't surprised he was found, just how fast it happened. He even remarked on...

    Hana - Ch. 22 - Let's Go Together!

    My question right now is: will the eye grow back? I mean, I suppose it will 'cause of the series cover, but who knows with Wanan.
