She is not a mimic. She's basically John Carpenter's "The Thing"

I'm quite surprised at how often this trope appears in way too many manga. When one or both of the parents abandon their children at the drop of a hat. I mean, I know it's a trope, but tropes are nothing more than a distorted view of reality. At this point I'd expect half of Japan's...

I swear, I read Reiko's line as... . . . Come into my dungeon.

I can feel her thirst.

At some point I realized that Ippo had become nothing but a huge load of bovine manure for me. This chapter is a cartful.

Decompressed storytelling can be very frustrating. This is one example. I'll just wait and see what the author does with Hild.

What a nice cousin. She gave him a huge treasure.

A woman of culture.

@Acolytus " Terano is a fucking chicken." That is actually extremely accurate.

@HDMI1 Out of simple curiosity, how medically accurate is the depiction of Laius gurgling blood as to the effects of a ruptured carotid artery. To be precise, I'm aware that the carotid artery is a thick blood vessel carrying a lot of blood at relatively high pressure. Right now, I'd imagine a...

What a wasted opportunity.

@doomtc Because it follows the plot of the light novels. It's the GIGO principle.

This was never good. But it's become toxic shite.

Right in the kokoro!

Non-endings are par for the course in manga. Either from premature cancellation or from the author never bothering with a proper ending, thus leaving it intentionally and annoyingly open ended. I can count with the fingers of a mutant ninja turtle's hand, the number of mangas with well rounded...

I am not surprised this got canned. It was too beautiful and pure for this world. Plus, it was based around nostalgia of old toys, most appealing to those who remember a time before phones and and when playing a computer game involved waiting for so long that you decided to play something else.

@theonlycasper is correct. Pencils are totally useless to rewind cassete tapes the fast way. That is, hold the pencil up and swing the tape around like a ratchet. They're way too thin and don't catch the teeth, forcing you to hold the pencil at an awakward angle. Bic pens fited perfectly...

The one thing I always found disturbing about this series, is how it downplays what are otherwise acute mental health issues and presents them as quirky character traits. What Komi has is not solved with a bit of "believe in yourself" and the power of friendship. It requires therapy and quite...

Did she just...? Yep, she pulled he away. "Bitch, stay away from my man!"

I like a lot the little details, like the tiny scratches and cuts on Gudrid's hands. I was wondering if after all this time Hild was still hellbent on revenge or if she'd somehow learned to forgive Thorfinn after seeing how sincerely and desperately he tries to make ammends for his past. Guess...
