You described my feelings t...Thanks for commenting! You described my feelings toward Hayate almost perfectly, lol. I didn't really care for the series but now that it's gone it feels somehow...empty. Sunday without Hata or Matsuena does seem sort of weird doesn't it? In any case, Matsuena seems primed to return so it's a matter of "when" rather than "if". I'd hope he'd tone down the fanservice for his next work but it seems like that's a price of entry thing with him, sadly.<br /><br />If Evans doesn't end exactly the way you said I'll be surprised and maybe a little disappointed, lol. <br /><br />I wonder if Nobunaga is going to stick around too, honestly. It'd be interesting if he did since as of now there aren't any leading "adults" in the story. <br /><br />Kuro seems to be the mascot of the series so rest assured we'll probably be getting lots of it in the future. It is a cute little thing isn't it? (Sorry the gender isn't really specified even in the story.) If you manage to get custody, let me know and I'll come by and visit your happy family!

(Even in the next chapter she's around and it's implied she'll be in the one after that.) It's clear that unless Kuriyama is going to toss us a curveball that they'll end up together, and seemingly the story is how long will it take for them to realize they feel the same way?<br /><br />The request was a while ago, but yes I was asked to TL Yuugami. It is a funny little series, but I dunno if I could dedicate the time/attention to it to be very honest. <br /><br />It's hard to tell with Youkai Giga. It just started so being able to gauge it's popularity is difficult, and since it seems to be in a fixed position in the magazine we cant tell if people are voting for it either. The first volume's sales are going to be the real indicator, but we won't know those for a while since it's a short form manga. Hopefully it manages to sell decently..<br /><br />Anytime! I know I emphasized getting into a class, but any means you can use to pick up a little Japanese here and there works. Just be sure to reinforce it with a class setting eventually!

It's strange, Tokiwa wasn't all that good, but I still feel kind of sad that it's gone now. A Shonen Sunday without Matsuena is lacking something. I really hope that his next work, whatever it will be; will be more successful.<br /><br />Aww, Evans, you missed your chance to be a trophy husband. But don't worry, maybe Pheobe will get lucky one day and strikes gold. Then you can be her trophy husband and give meaningful advice to your equally socially awkward children.<br /><br />Quadrable's title page has this DragonBall feeling. I wonder if our team is going to adopt Nobunaga.<br /><br />And while I'm talking about adopting: Please let me adopt Kuro. He(?) is just too cute.<br />peppermint teahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979661397543353897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1725595341696284033.post-38511102371110933822017-06-12T16:24:33.622-07:002017-06-12T16:24:33.622-07:00I think with Evans, it's best for both Evans a...I think with Evans, it's best for both Evans and Phoebe to have their own story branch with intersection from time to time. Idk, that's just my assumption. We'll see how the story goes.<br /><br />I don't think I've seen you mentioned that someone asked you to translate Yuugami. Would've awesome if you did, but hey no worries. Don't take more that you can handle.<br /><br />So, Youkai Giga isn't as popular as the rest of the lineup? It's kinda sad but I hope it gets some exposure outside Japan and it would help with draw some interest.<br /><br />Thanks for answering. I'm always thinking about doing something else on the weekend besides playing games. I used to listen to some audio course at work but it was only during the trial period. Don't know if the site offers good enough material if I subscribe to their course.

Yeah, Pheebs and Evans are ...Thanks for commenting! Yeah, Pheebs and Evans are clearly and item. I feel like the series is going to be more about them eventually finding out they like each other moreso than Evan's exploits. I just hope Kuriyama knows how long to keep this premise going before it gets old.<br /><br />Yuugami is pretty good. I might have mentioned it before, but someone did ask me to translate it. A shame I really don't have any time or I would take them up on the offer. Sadly priority wise I have other things i'd rather work on. <br /><br />Youkai Giga is an interesting take on the short form manga that usually run in WSS. Pretty much all of them are cute girls being weird, but this one is doing something different. I'm hoping it's position in the mag is for special treatment and not because of unpopularity...<br /><br />I learned it through High school and eventually teaching myself. I don't recommend that at all though. Get into a class if at all possible. You'll be much better rounded at the language and have positive reinforcement which will help when you get to slogs where it's hard to stay interested. I was just stubborn and lucky --but I can't speak or write Japanese very well. You'd really do yourself well to find a class if at all possible.

It's really funny seeing Phoebe getting super serious rather quickly.<br /><br />Yuugami here seems just as funny as the earlier chapters, but the art has gotten significantly good though. I hope Fallen Syndicate will pick up the pace for this series.<br /><br />I know I said that Youkai Giga might be something that a friend of mine might enjoy but I'm starting to think that even I might enjoy it. I really don't want to get my hopes up too high since it might not even be scanslated for all I know.<br /><br />Maybe it's time to learn Japanese for real this time. Rufi, did you learn Japanese through paid classes/tuition/course or do you know if there are any websites offering free and good language course?

You'd think by now he'd know she's loyal to him, but nope. It's the only time he ever really sweats too, so seeing that side of Conan is appreciated. <br /><br />To me it --Evans was a little slow this week, but still pretty good. I doubt Katie's mixed heritage will come up again in any meaningful way though. It felt like something thrown in to explain her appearance --and to make her sound more beautiful. <br /><br />Yeah, I gotta admit Meteor Girl wasn't a series I expected to follow past the obligatory first three chapters, but here I am waiting for more. Ishiyama certainly knows how to keep me interested, so I'll give him/her that. I'd like to see it rival Neverland --in just being hard to predict, as WSS needs something like that right now with all the action series falling left and right.<br /><br />Hah, I'm glad you enjoyed Maojo. I was almost considering not covering it because of the subject matter but it was so funny that I had to. It felt like a Gintama chapter but a little more restrained. <br /><br />Ahhh see, Matsugo hasn't appeared in the (anime) as far as I've seen so this is my first time seeing his character. I sort of suspected that Takahashi was playing that up, but she's doing it with a light touch so that she doesn't have to commit to anything. After all she can't control what the readers think, right? He's pretty hilarious in his denseness though, so I'd like to see more of him.<br /><br />Yeah Matsuena is...Matsuena. I really wish someone could convince him that boobs do not equal good manga, but I doubt anyone ever will. It is weird since WSS was really advertising Tokiwa to be the next big thing --it had a commercial and everything, and now it just dies without even getting an anime and not even achieving half the runtime Kenichi did. Well, as I said in the coverage, Matsuena seems primed to come back again, so maybe third time is the charm.<br /><br />I'm missing RYOKO a lot now. Saike will be back in July so at least there's that to look forward to, but indefinite hiatuses hurt because you never can be sure when they'll end, and with WSS just because the hiatus *does* end doesn't mean that the series is back in good graces. Fukuchi's works that have returned from break have only done so to end quickly and I'm hoping that's not the case for Mitsuhashi. More than that though, I hope he's doing okay.<br /><br />As always thank you for reading and commenting!Sakakihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16925017777573546753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1725595341696284033.post-60053871136576651912017-06-09T09:44:19.816-07:002017-06-09T09:44:19.816-07:00Looking forward to the new Rinne OP and ED. Only w...Looking forward to the new Rinne OP and ED. Only wish there was an affordable legal way to watch it. I might be a die-hard Takahashi fan, but I'm not paying for the goddamn Anime Network for just one show. <br /><br />Love seeing color pages for Soubotei! <br /><br />Lol, Conan cares more about where Ran's going that the case is an afterthought. That's what's fun about Detective Conan sometimes - a lot of the cases are often excuses for hijinks between the characters. <br /><br />That Evans chapter sounds cute. Katie's half-asian background in the america midwest is interesting, so I'm curious whether the series will explore that in any depth.<br /><br />Meteor Girl continues to be very intriguing. In a sense it might be Sunday's answer to The Promised Neverland in terms of a series with a moody atmosphere, creepy art, and an ever-evolving mystery with dramatic twists and turns. <br /><br />Toilet humor has never sounded so cute according to your description of Maojo this week. <br /><br />I've always felt that Matsugo was very obviously gay for Rinne, but it seems like he is growing some feelings for Anju, even if he isn't aware of them. Will be interesting to see if they do end up together (then again, this is Takahashi, so it probably wont go anywhere lol). <br /><br />Not going to miss Tokiwa Kitaeri in these. The artwork turns me off, especially the main girl's character design (and do we really need to seeing her nipples through her skintight suit? Ugh). Not really looking forward to the mangaka's next work, but hopefully it will be better. <br /><br />I hope Ryoko and Saike come back soon. Your writeups for those are always really fun to read. <br /><br />Another solid week! LumRanmaYashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07684561256555683457noreply@blogger.com
