Interesting - the novel translation was pretty consistent in referring to Camilla in feminine terms, and definitely hinted at the trans aspect, but was never quite clear about it. It's nice to see a second translation that's making it a bit clearer. Also, this story has some significant...

@pyoro I get what you mean, but at the same time you can't sustain that kind of thing through three iterations - it'll only hold up through the first one, and then trying to keep it uncertain is going to ruin anything else you're trying to say. This is all about the emotional lessons of life...

I really like this nurse - honest and open minded and totally unjudgemental.

"What's this bead-like thing?! Are you hiding an abacus in there?!" I think that quote says all that needs to be said about this whole manga . . . . . . though the nurse talking about "buffin' the muffin" comes a close second . . .

Someone didn't think their plan through very well . . .

I love the dynamic between these two - they're both obviously pretty weird, but they're also both completely psychologically healthy and comfortable with how they are, which makes for a great relationship. Also, they've both grown so much over the course of the series.

I'm going to guess that the high end of the magical combat ability range is /very/ high, and the only way they can find the really powerful ones is through trial and error - so they train the kids up enough to have a decent chance of surviving the initial encounter, and then just keep throwing...

@JQ- interesting - I've seen the same thing in a couple of other yuri manga, and I figured it was either a translation choice or the authors being a little loose with their phrasing. Having read up on the political situation it seems like it may be as much optimism as fantasy - the current...

@moikkai starting in 2015 (i.e. about 5 years before "now" assuming this is contemporary) a growing number of municipalities in Japan have been issuing "partnership certificates" providing a form of official recognition of same sex relationships - it's not actual same sex marriage (which, as you...

Tachi is also a (relatively) normal outsider providing an additional and more broadly relatable perspective on everything - notice she never spends any time thinking about herself as a pervert or anything like that, she's always got a positive view of herself and for the most part other people...

Ooh, that three-pronged punch looks great - I've never done anything finer than strap work with a simple hole punch, and it was never very satisfying.

He's dead Jim . . . .

......................... *pop* "Sorry, what?" I almost pissed myself laughing at that.

@DeprivedOtaku it moved between publications, and I think that made for some confusion - there was a change in the numbering of chapters and a bit of other stuff (I was following it at the time - makes me feel old now). The numbering's been cleaned up here, but maybe a few bits ended up out of...

Kaoru's a genuinely good guy underneath the self-loathing and horniness

I could see Tachi and Kaoru having a perfectly satisfying relationship, if it wasn't for the fact that he's totally nuts about Nana . . .

@trapsarebetter you apparently have some serious problems with reality here - there are lots of social and cultural pressures that cause people to "put themselves in boxes" the way you keep complaining about (here and in threads on half the manga I've read here recently). For a lot of people...
