    Kannou Sensei - Ch. 22

    So glad this is finally out of hiatus hell. Thanks for continuing the wonderful series! One of my favorite mangaka.

    Promise Cinderella

    First 5-6 volumes were OK, then the needless drama and absurd antagonists started popping up one after another. And then it rushes in an almost comic way at the end. Probably the worst case of pacing and conflict creation -> resolution I've seen in a long while. At one point it became...

    Asako - Vol. 5 Ch. 21

    No worries, I had to double-check too, it was easy to glance over the details. The manga is so wordy sometimes, lol.

    Asako - Vol. 5 Ch. 21

    Just as a note, but the depiction in the manga is correct.

    Bonkura Bonbon House

    This one's pretty underrated for what it is. A shortish 20 chapters of light drama and wholesomeness. The DIY setting is actually explored decently too, instead of being just a random prop. Overall, quite the fun and cute read.

    Gaishuu Isshoku - Vol. 5 Ch. 38 - Midnight Struggle

    Oh, it's time for THAT arc. Wild chapters coming ahead!

    Hajirau Kimi ga Mitainda - Ch. 62.1 - Scouting

    Hey, it's OK lol, as I said, just providing context. Imho it's still possible for a high schooler to get drunk on this, too. One of my exes could get drunk off a can of this and she was a full-fledged adult https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/Suntory-Horoyoi-Cream-Chuhai-Bottles/dp/B085SLJF6J/ Which...

    Hajirau Kimi ga Mitainda - Ch. 62.1 - Scouting

    I had forgotten the bottle, or I didn't pay attention (lol). The bottle is modeled after the Asahi craft series like this one: https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/Asahi-Lemon-Ultimate-Chuhai-Bottles/dp/B093BZD7FJ/ It's a vodka-based, 7% alcoholic beverage, standard chuuhai stuff. In the manga case...

    Hajirau Kimi ga Mitainda - Ch. 62.1 - Scouting

    As I've lived in Japan for quite a few years, let me correct this for you a bit: All the chuuhai and similar beverages which dominate the domestic alcohol market are based on vodka/shochu, but they're also usually mixed with soda/fruit juice or concentrate/other diluting agents. This puts them...

    Jun Waidan

    This is way too underrated for the quality throughout all of the chapters. Granted, they are stories submitted to the author by people most of the time, but still. Melancholic and realistic storytelling, if you've been there, you'd certainly resonate with some episodes.

    Mi-chan wa Kawaretai - Vol. 2 Ch. 8 - You're mine after all

    Yeah yeah, "She's a 600-year-old dragon" and all. Anyhow, rooting for the cafe lady.

    Mi-chan wa Kawaretai - Vol. 2 Ch. 8 - You're mine after all

    I hope he gets with the cat cafe woman, she looks decent and fun. Ain't underage, either.

    Furitsumore Kodoku na Shi yo - Vol. 3 Ch. 15 - Chapter 15

    I think you misunderstood me. I'm not referring to crime mystery manga, I'm talking about crime mystery fiction, as in LITERATURE fiction. The build-up, technique, and pacing is way different. In a way, this author reminds me of some of John Connolly's books, which are pretty much top-tier in...

    Furitsumore Kodoku na Shi yo - Vol. 3 Ch. 15 - Chapter 15

    The author has a crime fiction approach compared to the usual LN-style approach a lot of series do. Full-fledged crime fiction takes its time to develop plot-lines. If you're searching for insta gratification/dopamine, yeah, stick to other series. Good chapter, albeit a tad slower. I can see...

    Dekinai Futari - Vol. 4 Ch. 23 - Failure

    Three in a row? Thanks a ton for your hard work! Kaneshiro's one of the better side characters I've seen in similar setups, he's cute af. Nice to see a cool-headed approach to the conflict the second time around -- I think next chapter's going to be fun!

    Maria no Danzai - Ch. 8 - The Price Of Thy Red Lies

    It's quite possible, there are many options that could be going behind the scenes. I'm not filtering out the sexual nature, either, but I'm putting it as one of the last options available -- and if the author honestly approaches her path in such a boring, cliche, and expected way, I'd drop it...

    Maria no Danzai - Ch. 8 - The Price Of Thy Red Lies

    Despite what the coombrained dudes in this thread think, it's probably pretty far from the truth. The dude seems more vulnerable/emotional than his tough guy persona shows, so probably he confided something in Maria. He's anxious that his rather macho persona might be leaked for others to see...

    Media Mix Maiden

    A more than decent manga, with an enjoyable adult cast. I think it got soft-axed due to unpopularity, as it gets even more meta than Maruto's previous (Saekano) when it comes to industry specifics. Even worse, it's mixed media industry specifics, so quite a bit of terminology and insider...
