Whoa. Thanks for the mega-update.

"Pure cultivation" is a translation of the Japanese translation of the principle of Purgative-Illuminative-Unitive philosophical mysticism that underlined the Society of Jesus missionary work in the 16th century. Unlike the other orders that supported direct colonization efforts by Catholic...

There are high-cut undergarments that match those. To begin with, high-cut bunny girl costumes were modeled after high-cut undergarments and not the other way around. High-cut undergarments were designed to pair with sidecut/slit dresses from the 70s. The reason they aren't so common anymore is...

"Hero Albus, why do you do what you do?" "Himmel would have done the same."

Yes and no. As in the case of the Battle of Tedorigawa, this manga is willing to take more fringe historical assessment to advance the plot in a certain direction. Since Kyonyo isn't a character and Kennyo is depicted as being much younger in this manga than he actually was, the burning is...

Er, no. In real history Kyonyo, Kennyo's son, was the one who burned down Hongan-ji as he was forced to retreat. In real history, when Kennyo left Hongan-ji, the hardliner faction that stayed behind chose Kyonyo as their leader and Kennyo disowned him in response. Kyonyo's position very quickly...

No. In real history Sakuma spent almost the entire 10 years of siege holding tea ceremonies and basically sitting in his siege castles doing nothing but line maintenance. He never attempted to provoke the defenders to come out - the standard behavior expected of siege commanders trying to gain...

Lol, the ninja sure know their limits.

A bit of historical background for those finding this masterpiece for the first time. Maeda Toshimasu Keijiro was a real samurai of the late sengoku (warring states) era. He was the son of Takigawa Kazumasu, an illustrious samurai general under the first unifier of Japan, Oda Nobunaga. Kazumasu...

Ey, wait. That ain't the kikoho I know. He didn't even make the triangle.

The funniest thing in this chapter is how Komori's deadpan bro is just as capable of sowing total chaos as his sister, but by being a straight, uneccentric, competent dude.

Who?

This manga was actually very influential in shaping the current pop culture image of Maeda Keiji and the main reason why so many modern games include him as a completely OP character. Originally Keiji was not really a significant character in Sengoku fiction (he wasn't historically that...

Oh yeah. I just realized that we don't have her death photo in the notes... Then again, she's a ghost, so does she need one? Hmmmm....

Turkish eunuchs have their dicks completely removed. It's kinda brutal because the operation is done in two stages. In the first stage the balls are removed, then in the second stage the dick is cut off at the root. Most eunuchs have their dicks removed. The only exceptions were in some...

She didn't lock him, just put him in there. He was able to open the door just fine.

It's kinda disturbing how Japan has fictional works where the only way you can get humane working conditions is by going to the literal afterlife.

Oh, this chapter suggests that Sentarou might have a misunderstanding about how the demon works. It doesn't put something in Sentarou's mouth. Stuff gets into his mouth because he is the demon, or at least the demon's physical home.

Ah, yes... Cool being a mangaka of culture was going to pop up eventually. It's like a straight-up challenge to KyoAni. How ya gonna animate THIS arc now? Huh?

Anyone remember what happened to Mike?
