I did some very crude googling in japanese and it rather looks like they have? Like there's a oneshot in Shounen Jump Plus ostensibly from 2023, from an author of the same name, and a plausibly-similar art-style (though it's steampunk-ish sci-fi thing of indeed the sort you'd expect in a Jump...

She is my hero ;-; Depends on the spider and what you consider 'bondage'? I mean the widow spiders definitely eat their husbands a lot, thus the name. And some good number of other species too. Tying up an aspiring spider daddy as a snack is really not uncommon. Some species' papas are advised...

You know it's been a while since I've seen this sort of ending that feels like "we're not going to say anything totally conclusive about where this is going since maybe that might upset someone". Anyway. I shall be the one to proclaim that if he's going to keep switching his friend's gender all...

This is the guy's pov though. Now, I know what you meant—you care about what body the viewpoint character has, not what gender their consciousness is—but if you want to try to make a cishet male pov out of this you're not going to get anywhere sensible, like, you do realize that whether the...

Okay so I hate this but, that aside, Odd series to consider tagging-wise: At what point of "sex scenes behind the doors of bathroom or as silhouettes for which we almost get only dialogue" followed by "bits of implied sexual fluids on their bodies afterward and other itself-NSFW evidence"...

I know right? I was just "Wait what am I reading?!" I miss this sort of thing, though. The good old days where there were so many little manga that were random and incomprehensible (instead of just brain-dead and overtly sexual. T-T;; )

Honestly, the adoption in a BL of this sort of title, cover, art style, and, as of the first chapter, plot structure... I mean. If we're just doing a normal isekai-style fantasy romance except, it's gay? Hell yes, I'm in, even if it's garbage. (So long as it doesn't get creepy or anything)...

Am I? I'm examining the huge tonal dissonances in the wildly different flavours of problematic oversimplifications that the work has its characters espouse, without there being much any examination or narrative response to challenge them. Yes, the characters' opinions are not necessarily the...

I mean, I really do have some fondness for the old days of incomprehensibly-named magics and protagonists with random magic limbs... Not so much the rest of it. I think calling reading this 'enjoyable' would be rather stretching it. It was certainly an... Experience. XD If I'm going to be...

I think one might get further understanding it by thinking less about the interplay of magic and melee in systems of game mechanics, much less any plausible in-world explanations, and instead dwell upon, say, the lasting allure of jedi knights as a cultural icon, who have hardly any solid...

Wow, papa cockatrice is going for a new speed-record in "deadbeat dad"

Honestly, one of my favourite comics. Badass FMC who stays badass; the socially-awkward but cheerful couple; their implicit attitude of "we'll just both take the best of both gender roles thank you" / "What are social rules, why should we heed them when we're happier doing our own thing"? It's...

"I cannot use magic," says the woman who just summoned a house from her iPad and erects city-scale permanent magical barriers on a regular basis. (Like I realise she may be correct within the kids' culture in reference to whatever implied specific fantasy word is being translated as "magic"...

I'm annoyed because with the smallest differences this could be desperately cute but it had to go with vague dubcon vibes with how the ML is approaching and touching him, utterly ruining what could otherwise have been a perfect dumb fluff manga.

Everyone here is assuming that the plot summary and the protagonist correctly identify the ultimate culprit for the murder, but despite people's high expectations for the tension from that I'm just sitting here going, "nothing's even shown she did it, this could still be a complete...

This feels like it tries to do quite a lot and only sticks the landing about half the time Decent twists mixed evenly together with cliches that are dragged out to take up screen-time for no apparent reason. The protagonist is well characterised yet the villain makes so little sense that even...

...I didn't realize how weird it would feel for someone to adapt a generic isekai manga with the art and sensibilities of a forgettable shounen manga from the mid 00's. Incomprehensible names for the "energy" everyone uses for combat, a missing hand that turns into a weapon, a protagonist...

I'm always a bit confused by this trope, where the author floats the idea of a human/inhuman romance as the central tenet of the work, except the inhuman turns into just a slightly funny human? I don't know. It feels like it's self-defeating cowardice; everything interesting in the premise would...

No? How something is subverted is important. What the butt of the joke is is important (no pun intended). Parodying a nasty thing isn't carte blanche for anything you have to say on the subject. If anything, I think I might find this somewhat more inherently-offensive than what it's parodying...

...Why are you presenting this false dichotomy of it being a zero-sum-game where "either they die or he dies"? (In the edgiest way possible too, bruh... phrasing!) But I mean this isn't even some hypothetical question where "he could have tried to spare them, maybe". They were already...
