Pretty sure forcing someone to bungee jump without a harness is murder in most legal systems.

"You guys" is colloquial in actual usage in a way that the vast majority of other nouns are not and most other usable nouns run afoul of the accusatory tilt direct address can pick up — see the issues of tone that arise from saying "you people." Omitting the pronoun in the phrase often reads...

The English language's lack of a non-dialectical second-person plural pronoun means it's this or "y'all," which has its own baggage.

It's an even cutesier version of the cutesy "-tan" honorific, which is a childish way of saying the more typical affectionate/diminutive "-chan" honorific. It comes from the fact that the katakana for "so" and "n" look very similar (ソ versus ン).

This is the end of the chapters that will be released in volume form in March, translated from the magazine release. The end of Volume 1 was Chapter 6.

Fruit print and animal print are often patterns for children's underwear. Adults typically wear single-color or simpler/more abstract patterns.

I haven't seen the raws, but at a guess, even in standard Japanese "iranai" means both "unnecessary" and "unwanted" — by way of parallel example, in the anime Kyousougiga there's a recurring event where the residents of a world without permanent death and destruction let go of things they don't...

I know I've read at least one, which is all it takes to not write off an outside chance.

Gonna put what discussion suggests may be an outside theory here and guess that Ciel is gonna get shipped with Josette, which I'm not sure which way I feel about while I'm failing to remember her age.

Question of pacing, I think. Knowing what's going to happen is different from knowing how many 10-20 page chapters it will take to have it all happen, since an outline and a storyboard are different levels of detailed planning.

Author's note saying they'd finished the full outline of the story to the end was back on Chapter 224, about two volumes ago, so I think it's safe to say this isn't an axe.

On the one hand I understand your point, on the other hand she's going around in a high school uniform in a country where high schoolers are subject to restrictions from their school about what they can do and where they can go while wearing their uniforms often enough that I've seen it...

When it's in a language where there are very different ways of saying goodbye to someone if you expect to see them again versus not, and saying the former to someone you just met indicates you're okay with seeing them again and/or they're welcome to come see you again, especially if this is the...

Doubtful, because the Japanese title of that game is just Gyakuten Saiban 3.

Without seeing the raw text and bearing in mind that the description is coming from a child, it's entirely possible she's just describing the acidity, since sourness and acidity use the same kanji.

"May D' Esqueen" is exceedingly on-the-nose as a name for a sadist maid. It's got the ドS in it and everything.

The pigtails are a cute style for Debby.

Yomi is the guy who was originally a villain who went after Konoha for revenge after Iana died. The prince is Ginoford. She's not confused why he dislikes her, she's wondering why he seems to hate her to increasingly irrational degrees with every encounter even when she has not been actively...

The last one. At least one anime or manga has made a joke about bringing an ultimately small amount of lost money to the police box and waiting the requisite amount of time with no one claiming it.

It's the "like" suki. Unless Makiba pulls some equally out-of-left-field expansion on Oogami no koto as an uncharacteristic backpedal, he very definitely said the thing.
