    Boukensha Zettai Korosu Dungeon - Vol. 2 Ch. 19

    Also, it looks like it got picked up by Yen Press since last chapter. Volume 2 comes out in English in August, no announcement regarding volume 3 yet. Is dropping it the generally accepted course of action in this situation?

    Boukensha Zettai Korosu Dungeon - Vol. 2 Ch. 19

    Dowman Sayman would never, ever, ever make questionable jokes about minors, he's a heckin' wholesome chungus author. Incidentally, Aine and Nacht are also purely heterosexual and just say homoerotic things to each other constantly because they're such good friends.

    Boukensha Zettai Korosu Dungeon - Vol. 2 Ch. 19

    I interpret it as another contemptuous subversion of isekai litrpg slop, like how the previous chapter took jabs at the "slow life" trend. The corporate framing in general is to reduce the fantasy to something mundane and sterile. Revealing a main character is the reincarnation of the Demon Lord...

    Yeah, Ludwig van Mozart. He's up there with Frederich Liszt.

    Boukensha Zettai Korosu Dungeon - Vol. 2 Ch. 18

    They just need to call it something else, like "diplomacy."

    Black Chancery. I think I'm going to switch to Chancery Bold in future chapters for better readability.

    Boukensha Zettai Korosu Dungeon - Vol. 2 Ch. 18

    Yeah, as much as I like this one, Melancholia is amazing. That's also the joke with "Fatty." It's "Tifa" with the syllables reversed, I probably should have put that in the notes.

    The Life of Ichabod - Vol. 3 Ch. 16 - Unko Kare

    Feels like it. The action scenes are a little hard to understand, and a lot is revealed this chapter. Here's a detailed synopsis. I'll be using the names George and Eric to refer to Hamamatsu and Monsieur in the distant past, specifically, and keeping the names Hamamatsu and Monsieur for the...

    Boukensha Zettai Korosu Dungeon - Vol. 2 Ch. 16

    Sorry for the wait. I got burnt out redrawing this chapter and kind of got sick of manga for the time being. To prevent this in the future, I won’t be doing the SFX anymore. The next chapter will also have partial SFX, since that work is already done. I’ll continue posting new chapters...

    Spunk

    I would like to, but I need a dedicated translator, and no one has stepped up. I really wasn't satisfied with my translation efforts here nor in what I've done of chapter 2, and I feel an good translation is incredibly important for Arai's work. I don't want anyone to feel like I'm holding this...

    Rosen Garten Saga - Vol. 13 Ch. 82 - Revenge ~Tragödie~

    Should be Gunther. I don't believe this has been mentioned in the notes before, but Witege does kill the son of best character and "father of all virtue", Rüdiger. His name was Nuodung. It technically happens in the Thidrekssaga, but in the Nibelungenlied, Gotelinde (Rüdiger's wife) remembers...

    Yasashii Watashi

    This is the story of two people who love each other very passionately, but who's own insecurities become an insurmountable obstacle towards that love; a bittersweet tale of emotional codependency. It came out before the 'I can fix her" trend/subgenre but it feels like a bit of a refutation of...

    Kiichi!! VS - Vol. 11 Ch. 104

    This is honestly the greatest sex scene in manga, and probably in all of fiction. It's literally perfect. I love how pathetic it is. I love how awkward it is. I love how desperate it is. I love how it juxtaposes life-represented by sex and birth, with death. I love how it misdirects the reader...

    On the Beach

    The title is a reference to the book/movie of the same name, which is thematically similar.They both are less about the specifics of the apocalypse, but how people choose to spend their time when they know they're all going to die soon. But it's surprisingly boring for it's concept. It's mostly...

    The World Is Mine - Vol. 14 Ch. 155 - Don't Resist. Accept. Everything is Connected

    This is the one thing I never understood about this story. As a "partial compensation" it rings hollow. It feels more like throwing Toshi under the bus (after just showing how he basically ruined his life) as a half-hearted apology, taking responsibility by not actually taking responsibility...

    The World Is Mine - Vol. 14 Ch. 163 - The World is Mine

    I think there was significance to Toshi-mon and Higumadon's encounters, it goes back to the Death of God. Higumadon symbolizes God, and Mon symbolizes Man. Mon is initially completely powerless before God. In their second encounter, iijima makes God bleed, and in the final encounter Man kills...

    The World Is Mine

    This was the most mentally exhausting manga I've ever read. 10/10, will never read again.

    Zassou Kazoku

    This is one of the two works that got cancelled due to Shoji Hiroyuki's death, and the better of the two, in my opinion. It ends at the second-to-last chapter,which is especially shameful because chapter 7 ends with an absolutely insane plot twist that raises so many questions we'll never know...

    The Life of Ichabod

    This is actually my favorite manga of all time and I recommend it to absolutely everyone. I once saw a Japanese review that said it's like Tarantino crossed with Luc Besson and I think it's spot-on... Though the backgrounds remind me more of Jean-Pierre Jeunet than Besson. The art takes some...

    Deep Love - Again

    It's definitely Deep Love, Again. If you still like Deep Love you'll probably like it. I feel like releasing a continuation over 10 years later was silly when most people that liked Deep Love back then probably aged out of it, but I got into it late, anyways. The ending was also really hard to...
