What do you mean by "the author still seemingly skipped 4 months of the story?" Like, what of the story actually got skipped? Most of the fanbase was expecting to basically go right into the quests and fight the Master Rules, and narratively we did exactly that. There was some hope of training...

Knowing this mangaka, I fully believe that Ootsuki will upgrade further with galvanized square steel and expansion screws borrowed from his aunt once we get to the chapters released in 2024.

I actually read the punchline differently: we directly saw that Ootsuki was cooking with his father's love in mind! Even if that's not the exact same as a father cooking for a son, as the narrator said, the thing that was missing was not love! It only lacked seaweed because the love was there!

I didn't know that the Avdol's "dad" scene was a reference! My gosh, thanks Odagiri! The final page is a more positive parody/redraw of the final page of Gin to Kin, one of my favourite Fukumoto manga that rarely gets referenced. As it's a rare example of a cancelled FKMT series (the magazine...

God, I'm so glad that we had a whole chapter expanding on the classic one-panel "he slept at a cheap business hotel" in every other excursion chapter. Including it every time is so incredibly FKMT and it's the kind of thing I hyperfixate on because it's so small yet so consistent.

I have never seen a series so perfectly convey the fake "always feel safe to go to your boss or HR if you have any complaints UwU!" vibe of a truly toxic workplace.

Petitioning to make the official English title "Wookie the Jong Bookie."

Unironically, take some time to actually develop your love vocabulary so you don't sound like a kid or a caveman with the same few shallow compliments and words of praise. It's easy to develop a good sadist's arsenal of insults because you can train on people you don't like, but there are far...

All of the Kaiji spinoffs are incredible, but this one is truly the greatest. If Ichijo can return to Sakura House and Murakami after everything, there's hope for us all.

This isn't theoretical, it happens all the time in Japan and it's not much better in America. They do one assembly, put a vase with flowers on the kid's desk and tell the parents of the kids involved to sort things out privately so the suicide victim's family doesn't bother anyone else with...

Oooh, between the main series. the spinoffs and Final Game, we've gotten so many interesting takes on Kurosaki that all kinda fit together. This is genuinely the scariest one, and I really like that our wannabe villain Ichijou was the one who recognized the advanced darkness behind the fun puppy...

People fundamentally misunderstand the multifaceted nature of the cuck chair. The fantasy is, of course, to be powerless and to be taken advantage of, and that can really happen. But many cucks are terrifyingly powerful and selfish, pushing two other people into situations they're each not...

Big thanks for TLing, this series is super entertaining. Definitely feels like we're still in the initial "building the cast" saga, which I'm enjoying, but I think that's why people are expecting and missing depth for the characters. I imagine the mangaka quickly developed the entire early cast...

Author is becoming enlightened to the ways of American sushi...

They're zoomers, it's actually extremely normal for them to have a wireless earbud in at all times. People did it in the 90's onward too with earbuds not playing anything for the aesthetic. The new ones even have transparency modes that play outside noise so it's easier to have a conversation...

It's literally what Kubaru said last chapter. A stranger assaulting a student creates problems for the adults, a student being bullied by other students and committing suicide doesn't, so why would they give a shit? Anyone who experienced bullying and wasn't super privileged will tell you the...

I just turned 30 and had this same experience. I just want to work and achieve something, why is it so hard?

The People I Met In-Game Were My Big Sisters is a god-tier title reveal. That's literally the entire Fanbox.

This is such a perfect FKMT counter-move. Reminds me of Minefield Mahjong or Sky-High Poker!

10/10 twist, it's so fucking heretical but it makes so much sense. And the wait really made me forget the fake Ichikawa, so I genuinely didn't expect another Akagi pull. Really helps that it doesn't rely on nostalgia: nobody stans fucking Urabe, and everything that's made this second East vs...
