It looks like she's holding the lighter up to herself but not actually touching the flame. I'm not sure on the science, but maybe that would be enough to ignite gasoline (which has a flash point of -43 degrees Celsius), but not kerosene and that's why she was confused. I also think it's possible...

She was trying to kill herself by dousing herself with kerosene and setting herself on fire. That's why she's wet, holding a lighter, and smells bad. The lighter isn't hot enough to ignite the kerosene.

I'm assuming that when they were using the telescope, the older Shinju was alive, and the time when she tried to kill herself was the same day that the older Shinju died. Granted, that still doesn't mean that he's the father.

The previous chapter shows that the starmen designers had been resetting the world to avoid the "worst possible future", which is humanity ending from the gray at the end of 2026, but they had given up after failing so many times. Finally achieving this timeline that continued to the following...

I think the point was less about bread vs rice, more about rice being analogous to bread in that both can be seen as integral to the diets of Asian and European people respectively. People in western countries today don't necessarily eat bread everyday, but European peasants and American...

The hands crushing people's heads on page 22 are from chapters 99-101 Cotton Glove Dropper. My guess was that the floating heads were from the Daidai Traffic Assistant chapter (ch. 80), but I could also see it being the dango. There's a chapter with a giant woman (187-189 Private Tutor), but she...

Looking at the calamities at the end of the chapter, we have: Mermaids from Chapters 123-125 Fish Broker, getting revenge for people selling mermaid meat Boy from Chapters 69-71 Detective's Assistant 2, the kid who killed his twin and is the incarnation of an evil god Face in the sky from...

If you're looking at it from that point of view, then from the perspective of most of demon society, he is a troublemaker (literally a misfit). On his first day of school, he recited a dangerous spell (Sullivan's fault, but still). He introduced the idea of friendship, which is foreign to demon...

In case anybody didn't get the comment about ground sesame on page 8, "grinding sesame seeds" is a Japanese expression for flattering somebody.

This story had an interesting start, but I feel like the end was a bit of an exposition dump. The in-law who doesn't believe in any of the rituals but starts living with and monitoring two separate families (the mom, then the sister) just so he gets paid a stipend is silly. It would be so much...

I'm guessing the original lock of hair wasn't actually hers, and she sent somebody else's silver hair because she thought it would appeal to her fiance, since dark hair is uncommon in Aitheria. Also, Arnoux's brother has been mentioned a few times but we haven't seen him yet. It'd be nice if he...

Can the cooking tag be added to this series?

I feel like the whole game is just being orchestrated by Akiyama. He's making all of the rules, but he's not getting involved in trying to find the culprit, just passing notes to Nao. The hologram looks like it could just be a recording of him with slicked back hair. It's responding to their...

Shiida is a member of Six Fingers, a group working for Baal. They went undercover in Walter Park to free Kirio, which is where she met Iruma. At the end of the Walter Park arc, the Six Fingers wipe the memories of their identities from everybody at Walter Park. Later, Shiida and Atori, another...

If anybody doesn't get the "Saint Riorio" joke, it's a Hunter X Hunter reference to the speech where Leorio mentions jerking off.

Supposedly, Napoleon sent a letter to his first wife, Josephine, before returning home from war, saying, "I'll be home in three days. Don't bathe." Though that seems to just be an urban legend.

See Chapter 430 for the image of Henri casting the translation spell that creates a ribbon.

On page 6, I think it should say, "Two with my hands, two with my legs." If it's two with each hand and leg, that's eight total. Or it could say "One with each hand, one with each foot."

I think the point is more that even though the author wasn't his biological dad, the time he spent with his stepfather was meaningful in his development. He still cares about his relationship with his stepfather, and is probably bringing the essay to him.

Page 7: "You just want to curry favor with him." Are you sure this isn't meant to be, "He's just trying to curry favor with me"? I know in Nobunaga no Chef, there's a part (chapter 282, page 13) where Hideyoshi asks Nobunaga for backup with the Mouris, but it's explained that Hideyoshi is...
