    Zenbu Kowashite Jigoku de Aishite - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - Stagnant Quagmire

    It's especially the case with mothers because there tends to be a whole cultural thing with them, like "a mother's love is the only love that's unconditional," "your mother will always be on your side," "your mother gave you the gift of life and always does her best to support you through it,"...

    Zenbu Kowashite Jigoku de Aishite - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - Stagnant Quagmire

    I mean, I doubt this ends well. They relate with each other due to their similar life experiences but not in a healthy way. With the theme of the series being toxic forms of affection or love, I doubt their own relationship goes unexamined. How bad it goes is another question and there is...

    Yajin Tensei: Karate Survivor in Another World - Vol. 6 Ch. 38 - To Ambush

    I haven't commented on this series, but it's so nice to be getting updates for this. Thank you for translating it. It's such a classic feeling gritty martial story, like something out of 80s, but with some modern isekai conventions. I felt bad for the deer, but that was an engaging fight as...

    Kuzu Rouninsei, Jinsei ga Tsurai no de Yoru no Onee-san wo Yondemita - Vol. 5 Ch. 54 - The Scumbag's Marriage Interview

    I will say my opinion of the parents is that we're seeing that parents get used to excerting a lot of control and deciding what's best for the child, which is necessary when you have a toddler who's trying to run out into the street and that kind of thing, and then emotionally have trouble...

    Kuzu Rouninsei, Jinsei ga Tsurai no de Yoru no Onee-san wo Yondemita - Vol. 5 Ch. 54 - The Scumbag's Marriage Interview

    Looks like I my guess about the arranged marriage being their solution to their daughters not being willing/able to take over the business was right. Also makes sense, based on their beliefs and the information they can access, that they'd conclude using their family prestige and Makino's good...

    Kuzu Rouninsei, Jinsei ga Tsurai no de Yoru no Onee-san wo Yondemita

    It is pretty highly rated, honestly. Some people view yuri negatively and many only accept "likeable" MCs. 7.7 is pretty acclaimed, considering that.

    Tomodachi Game - Vol. 24 Ch. 114 - A Friend’s Secret

    I think some of the issue is that he doesn't feel like he deserves to be forgiven and in past games he has generally tried to set things up so that he's the person sacrificed, so his end game here may be to get Shiho elected and then get sold into debt slavery or whatever. Shiho is also known to...

    Kuzu Rouninsei, Jinsei ga Tsurai no de Yoru no Onee-san wo Yondemita - Vol. 5 Ch. 52 - Scumbag and Progress?

    For most of history, assuming your kids would go into the same business as you would have been a reasonable assumption because what else would they do? And in this case, there is also a desire to pass the family legacy that they've spent a lot of time resources building up onto the next...

    Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi - Vol. 7 Ch. 31 - Mutual Wounds

    Well, it's fantasy, so there is no problem. If the author wants there to be a way for Shiori to die, there will be a way. I agree with your reading of the character's current intentions, but that doesn't mean she will actually do it when the time comes. Thinking about this, I feel like another...

    Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi - Vol. 7 Ch. 31 - Mutual Wounds

    I would guess the chance of Shiori killing Hinako is low and Shiori finding a way to die to get out of the promise is more likely - at least that would be the result of their current character dynamics where Shiori is dishonest and dedicated to finding a way for Hinako to live regardless of how...

    Netsuzou Trap - NTR

    This series is somehow both a dumpster fire and genius at the same. The author took the most uninspired take about gender- men honest, women dishonest, such that men (and lesbians) are slaves to women's whims- and somehow crafts an entire story out of it. I also enjoyed the insanity of stuff...

    Anime like summer time render or re zero suggestions??

    I think you've seen the main ones. There aren't a lot of time centric anime and I imagine they're quite hard to write. You've probably seen steins;gate, but that's the other one. Series where the time travel is a plot reveal part way into the story and therefore simply saying the names is a...

    Love Thy Neighbor - Ch. 38 - Chapter 38

    She was able to manage the minor enemies quite skillfully and was even labeled a "dangerous person" by the sister, so, even if she can't singlehandedly take down a criminal organization, we have seen she is able to do more than sitting around when she is motivated. She mostly just doesn't have...

    Love Thy Neighbor - Ch. 38 - Chapter 38

    It's an organized crime story so they're powerless to stop the criminal organization I guess. The right people are paid off etc. I wouldn't be surprised if police played a role eventually, but you'd probably need strong evidence plus a trusted contact among the police. The wealthy politician...

    Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi - Vol. 7 Ch. 30 - Warm Seabed

    I just binge read the chapters, but the way Miko's character pivoted from the childhood friend love rival (the one destined to fail to the girl on the cover art) trope to the guardian fox trope- with it, in retrospect, having always been the guardian fox trope- is one of the cooler things about...

    Zenbu Kowashite Jigoku de Aishite - Vol. 1 Ch. 5 - That Red alone, is Vivid.

    Well this series is great or maybe my taste is getting worse. Naoi's improv skills are pretty amazing though. We see Kokoro is idolizing her a bit and a normal response would be for Kurumi to try to live up to Kokoro's expectations, thereby becoming a better person in the process and feeling...

    Last Summer Vacation

    I found that weird too (only due to lack of exposure, I don't think intellectually think it's weird), but I guess I prefer correct British english both to incorrect US english and overly formal English that sounds weird on high schoolers, so if that's what they know I think it's fine.

    Love Thy Neighbor - Ch. 31 - Chapter 31

    That would definitely add to the whole "The husband is a scumbag" thing if the husband put her up to it. She also seemed familiar with sex with women despite being married to a man from a young age. Though there are various explanations of that, but women do occasionally hire female sex workers...

    Love Thy Neighbor - Ch. 31 - Chapter 31

    This actually sounds pretty plausible. We know they were thinking Jinju might come back and that they like to use hidden cameras, so if they showed up now it wouldn't seem forced. Tearfully declaring their love after one of them is rescued from loan sharks/the mob/etc by the other is also a...

    Love Thy Neighbor - Ch. 31 - Chapter 31

    Jinju saying she's not sure what love is but wants to stay with Doyeon would fit her jaded older person personality, but it really feels like we're leading up to the type of pivotal mutual confession scene in these types of stories, regardless of how it's worded. I also think that post...
