Games, manga, anime, theater, drama, movies...they are safe spaces to further push the narrative envelope because they are "not real" (no matter the lived experiences that may be behind them, sadly). Japan isn't as politically progressive as some of their pop culture can make some think, even...

Which manga was this? interest intensifies

It has the bonus power of instantly braiding long hair into buns for extra heat resistance! Sorry, otherwise the shop has some super quick hairdresser employed as their custom tailor. The mysterious powers that come from the island of DLC.

I feel this one left more questions than answers for me. Especially after looking up the composition of mosquito coils and their history. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito_coil Unsurprisingly, one component is similar to one used in gunpowder, which acts as a slow burning fuse for the...
