Interesting to see the some binary reactions as I reflect upon my own thoughts on it and the nature of audiences more generally. I think I'd call Monster #8 "A pretty vanilla, by the numbers classic shounen kaiju story that failed to become something more yet was also solidly executed", which is...

I think you're making some assumptions/math here that doesn't necessarily hold? First on a direct level: payment expectations. We don't know exactly what all the bounties are right now I don't think, but when we first saw them listed the Tankrantula and Snail were both the same 100 million...

Opposite. The point here is that given the unexpected challenge and in turn extra expenses (lots of extra missiles, wasted beacons etc), along with Akira and "Nergo" performing far beyond expectations, the amount of bounty (800m) isn't enough to both treat them squarely and cover everyone else...

Thank you so much for finishing off this epic piece of old school space opera. As the notes say, even almost a half century later it still endures. Solid finale to a grand journey, and pleasantly multi-dimensional all around. It was clearly written under the shadow of the Cold War, but here in...

Bird spirit knows a comfy band of friends on a heroic adventure when it sees one :meguu: After a long walk through the barren, violent darkness, it's pretty nice that they get to leave the warring world behind again for a time and be surrounded by nature, even if it is a touch foggy! Looking...

Genuinely a pretty satisfying finale that I think really fits the themes and complexity of the story. Rather then some all out battle of good vs bad or simple deus ex machina, instead both sides are complex and it's the cultural, political, and information aspects combined with some good old...

So begins one of the most infamous moments in the war, and a turning point in multiple respects. I think this is one of the first times in the manga though where I'm not so sure about the portrayal vs what I remember of the anime. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong because it's been a long long...

Eternal hot blooded muscle wizard duo cannot be kept down. Through fists, friendship!

I'm unironically incredibly excited to see this picked up, I've been advocating for it for ages. Thank you so much. I read the raw years ago and it was one hell of a finale to a really interesting creative work and world, however imperfect. Awesome to see it being brought to everyone at last...

You all just need to install moeBlock Originu-san! I just set that up on my Kawaiifox browser and all the ads covering the panels vanished!

"The dildo of justice rarely arrives lubed." - Sun Tzu

Really good how this drives home that some aspect of genuine truth and patriotism, normally entirely praiseworthy anger at corruption, and even brilliant enemy leadership can still all be utilized as part of Reinhard's plans. The soldiers and leaders backing the coup are getting used, yet are...

Quite the history, thanks for both working to finish this series and improve the translations of the earlier chapters as well. This is certainly something of a big infodump at once, but given the build up I can accept the author wanting to move things along for the grand finale. Though at the...

IN THE ENDEAVOR HOUSEHOLD WE RESPECT THE SECOND AMENDMENT Diode: "Terra dear? Are you free this weekend?" /gazes into the distance /wipes tear from cheek /baby salutes the flag /bald space eagle screeches Terra: "I'm always free."

Neither of these explanations however gets to Kate's most basic question of "why?". They have a pretty perfect brainwashing system, and on the face of it there is nothing inherently special about the GGF when it comes to brainwashing either. An important thing Anthony has demonstrated this past...

Simply MAGNIFICENT. Merry dickmas one and all! May everyone find the burning boner in their soul!!

Agreed, this was my first thought as well: any race that advanced would have the ability to upload their minds into a virtualized environment, even if for cultural reasons it was considered bad and thus emergency only. At the very least I can see why ship leadership might want some sort of final...

Man, tough to see Gainax has fallen on such hard times now that Rei is forced to take on actress roles across the multiverse just to keep the lights on. Poor girl has been totally typecast now too! Ganbatte!

Thanks for continuing with this adaption! Some noticeable changes in approach and details here vs the old one and I'm interested to see how it plays out. But seeing the lead admirals here vs the old makes me think again the author is making a mistake with some of the character visual changes vs...

This isn't to razz on you specifically or anything, but this still strikes at me in a way I didn't expect from this series. In my 20s, I was someone who "lived for work" and let that fill my whole life. I regularly did 80 hours a week, a few times even 100. Some of it was interesting serious...
