That was very nice. However, when you think about it. You can recover from an injury, you can't recover from death.

Thanks for the chapters !!! I’m satisfied with web releases or volume either way - just glad you are continuing with the manga

I don't think that I'll drop this. It's my second favorite project RN. Number 1 is Hitman's Fave but it's postponed until next year (its next volume will be released next year)

Except if I stop doing scanlation altogether.
Where are my comics jokes in the credits page? I was promised one in every credits page and I only got one! :p But seriously, thanks for the work. Really glad you mentioned it in Nichiasa's comments one day, been enjoying it every page.

This is SUCH a good superhero comic. This chapter is the thing that so many superhero movies have missed for... decades, now. That they're not just fighting bad guys, but that they're saving people. Having the hero go and meet people and not being treated like a distant god, but instead being happy to see them and give them gifts and talk openly about how they've helped or even that they bet against him in the fight is perfect.

That's the core part of this fantasy. Being a guy who people like and rely on. That he was nervous he didn't do a good job, that he was sure people were going to blame him for failure, that he looked at all the devastation and blamed himself almost feels like a pointed barb at the CGI-enabled mass destruction that mass-market movies have started to rely on. That the manga goes out of its way to be like "nah man rebuilding shit's easy, all the broken shit gets recycled and then robots make everything" and that's why everyone's totally fine with half the city blowing up is such a fun touch. Neo New York gets leveled and then everyone comes out of their bunkers and goes "oh, it'll be like 2 days before things are back to normal" and that's a plot point? Brilliant stuff

You're welcome!
I don't read that many comics, so I'm kinda afraid making more jokes (and no one mention any comic jokes on discord server).
Here's one, based on animated movies I've watched:
Villain: [insert unbelievably tough character here], take this human-disfiguring attack.
Also same villain: *Love taps for other characters.

I often think of “ProZD’s Twist Villain” short on YouTube, it’s got a great joke about modern comics and comic-style movies lol

Otherwise, this bulk release is so good! I just found this series 2 days ago as a suggestion from people reading Nichiasa, and I’m glad I did. Honestly having watermarked chapters or funky redrawing/cleaning isn’t a big deal. Don’t get me wrong: high quality scans are super nice! But I grew up on the super awkward fan TLs of series like early Naruto, so….
