[somber relic]

axed

[tacit ravine]

Oh that's why he's writing new doujin again

[grim pebble]

I don't understand this shit a bit

Like okay I do like sci-fi but what
What is supposed to be happening

[trim swan]

I see cute anime girls

logic flies out the window

[somber relic]

Cuz it's garbage

The plot of that manga is really all over the place

[grim pebble]

Well that explained a lot

Anyway
Fan service

[somber relic]

If you like scifi just read manga like this instead

With real "fanservice"

[grim pebble]

Okay that look 👌

Anyone know what exactly happened with "Pumpkin Scissors"?

[somber relic]

The author went hiatus almost for two years already

More like AWOL to be precise

[grim pebble]

Well hope the author doesn't do funky typical Japanese tomfoolery

Because I want to know how the fuck a single 20mm can pen the Ratte

Is it 20mm or 12.7mm again

[somber relic]

Real

You know what, Pumpkin Scissors was one of the main trigger why I dont want to start reading any ongoing title anymore

I had to reread the whole fucking latest war arc when vol.21 out at that time, that wa a massive pain

[crisp talon]

digestion is important, so eat a banana. .

[grim pebble]

But hey

It was good while it last

[grim pebble]

Sauce bro

[grim pebble]

Halo messed my mind because I forgot that UNSC stand for Security Council not Space Command

[grim pebble]

Why US and Australia fighting

[somber relic]

Because that's how it is in Front Mission universe's lore

Just some made-up shit like Ace Combat

You have to play the game to know the background lore deeper I guess, though you don't need that with the manga

[grim pebble]

"Belkan witchcraft"

[stable herald]

Manga name onegai

[stable herald]

tqvm

[flat mirage]

Anyone see the trailer for upcoming Racing anime Highspeed Étoile?

[grim pebble]

Definitely B-52

No mistake

[ivory mauve]

Front mission games kinda died

[grim pebble]

Wait a game

[ivory mauve]

The last attempt was "left Alive"

[grim pebble]

Which part I can skip to get pass the fucking drama

[ivory mauve]

Yeah.

It started off as a strategy game did a transition to action. But then konami wanted a cash grab

With mgs assets

[grim pebble]

Could put the pilot further back(more armor plate) so he doesn't get snipe

[ivory mauve]

Wanzers are deathtraps i swear

Infantry is very very effective against a single one that doesn't have infantry cover

[grim pebble]

That is just...
Tank
Normal fucking tank
But this shit have even less ammo

I mean armor

But with tank you get like 5 guys with you

This shit? Vehicle down?
You are on your own bitch

[grim pebble]

Okay this one look like it have more armor

[ivory mauve]

I kidd you not a well placed .50 can incapacitate a basic unit

[grim pebble]

Mechs can only be in a IFV role

[ivory mauve]

Or mobile arty

[grim pebble]

The thing I find bullshit with Eighty Six is that it have tanks on legs

[ivory mauve]

I think this is most of the games

[grim pebble]

And romance

And the human somehow winning

[ivory mauve]

That's 89% of everything mecha related

[grim pebble]

Let mech be mech I say

Don't make them tried to replace tank

[ivory mauve]

AC6 true ending lol

[grim pebble]

And get your child soldiers romance bullshit out of my fucking war

[ivory mauve]

That all depends on the author

[grim pebble]

I hate that one, not particular despite but like

No seat belt

And 10 years old looking pilot

Can't even clean themselves properly and you expect them to do what

Like okay artificial people

[ivory mauve]

They where ||mass-cloned soldiers||

[grim pebble]

I already said that

[ivory mauve]

Time lag

[grim pebble]

But no

You can't convince me that this is the best kind of strategy these mfer can come up with

[ivory mauve]

Heh

[ivory mauve]

Oh no it is a terrible use of resources

[grim pebble]

The fucking 800mm but on legs

Genius

No more fucking railway and 2000 crew to set it up

[grim pebble]

Most problems in that series can be solved if someone realized that beyond visual range weapons is a better and way simpler option

[ivory mauve]

That's from Cosmic Censorship

[grim pebble]

Thank you for reminding me about that one

"Fuck you, orbital cannon on your ass"

Forgot to read it

[ivory mauve]

Pulls up with tidalwave shipgirl

[grim pebble]

Siren

Manga be like:
The United Nation is somehow useful now

Which then it hit you with
"This is a work of fiction because UN will never be useful"

[grim pebble]

Now hold on

When last updated

[grim pebble]

Because I don't remember this part

[ivory mauve]

A few months ago

[grim pebble]

Which site

[ivory mauve]

Idk

What your talking about

[grim pebble]

I mean which chapter

The first pic you post

[ivory mauve]

Chapter 21 is with the shipgirl

[grim pebble]

What about the 800mm

[ivory mauve]

Last updated was chapter 25 march 25

[ivory mauve]

Chapter 10 ish

[grim pebble]

Damn it

Still the same

[grim pebble]

How this guy
How tf
How

[ivory mauve]

Do not question him. In the front mission universe there are unique individuals that for some reason have supernatural powers

[grim pebble]

And damage brain

[ivory mauve]

Oh yeah they are absolutely broken

[grim pebble]

They better not influence the outcome of the war

Correction
Everyone in the universe have brain damage

[ivory mauve]

You met the officer didn't you

[grim pebble]

Lesbian commander whatever

Not like I have any problems witj that traits but COME ON

[ivory mauve]

That woman is f up like holy shit. Is she even human

[grim pebble]

THIS ISN'T THE TIME AND PLACE FOR THAT

[ivory mauve]

She shows up again later

[grim pebble]

It get worse? We will still meet her again?

[grim pebble]

FUCK

[ivory mauve]

Yes

[grim pebble]

And she will do another bullshit?

[ivory mauve]

Multiple warcimes

[grim pebble]

Well that sound more acceptable

Than thinking about fucks in middle of a total retreat

I seen worse movie than this

Like there are actual director and actors do it

People actually funded that shit

And there are little to no combat scene

[ivory mauve]

Next arc should be hero's cross. After that is the Sheppard

Let the hounds hunt

[grim pebble]

I hope the guy that made the cross wouldn't cross Johnny

Bad vibe

He might actually do it

Well fucking shit he did

[ivory mauve]

Well you know what they say. Karma is a bitch

[grim pebble]

Did Alex just commit a blue on blue

Not about Johnny

Oh wait no

The man just fucking successful killed enemy accurately while being a pilot

And while being high

Step one to survive in Front Mission :

Be ultra fucked up

Must a really really bad fucked up in the head

Unconfirmed so I'm posting here

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

https://vxtwitter.com/nekokurage_/status/1715722621382447275?s=19

@silver robin someone's excited for the premiere

[silver robin]

i feel like you pinged me with the same exact message earlier

[slender skiff]

Nope

This is a different post

Cos the premiere is TODAY

[silver robin]

wait

I thought it was 24

not 21

oh shit

[slender skiff]

Now to actually find a stream of it

[silver robin]

crunchyroll in na

[slender skiff]

[silver robin]

probably muse asia for yall

[thorn briar]

I just realised in conan , when haneda cutted the mirror with the scissors to make a dying message he mentioned 2 names instead of 1 , so it was not asaka Rum, it was asaka and Rum which is those 2

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

Yeah it ain't on muse

Maybe not yet

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

I know Frieren is on muse and Netflix here so

[silver robin]

When was this posted

cause it could be in like 12 hours from now

[slender skiff]

uh

so to work backwards

3.5h ago was the premiere

that tweet was 5h ago i think

[silver robin]

ah

[thorn briar]

This is where everything started in conan

Gin

[silver robin]

Apparently its on netflix for not crunchyroll regions?

[thorn briar]

He looks handsome with the new animation for ep 0 I think

[slender skiff]

well

i need to watch tearmoon's latest ep first

[thorn briar]

I liked the 2 episodes of 100 gf

[slender skiff]

Right I need to watch that too

[dry moon]

Was that the one with the tsundere that you showed

[silver robin]

yall need to watch the esports anime for how cringe it is

[thorn briar]

Yes

[silver robin]

please suffer alongside me

[thorn briar]

Esports

[silver robin]

yes

theres an anime about esports

they play like tf2 but scuffed

[thorn briar]

What is tf 2

[silver robin]

do you know valorant or overwatch

its that but scuffed

[dry moon]

Team fortress two?

[thorn briar]

I heard about overwatch

But , never played it

[dry moon]

I don’t think I’ve ever played an fps before

[thorn briar]

I'm not a gamer , so idk about games

[slender skiff]

I'm horrendous at fps

[thorn briar]

Only dmc 5

[slender skiff]

So I don't play them

[dry moon]

The closest I’ve played to an fps is warframe but that’s much different

[grim pebble]

Should try to crush your hope and dream at counter strike

But that isn't real suffering

[silver robin]

so basically they play some random shitty fps game

in order to win money

to pay off their various debts due to a combination of shitty parent financial management and unlucky circumstance

[grim pebble]

Okay that sound way shit

[ivory mauve]

This was a nice slap

[silver robin]

oh also they are the underdogs

[thorn briar]

Jeanne, can u stop kidnapping vanitas in every omake

[silver robin]

since they only got the spot in the tournament due to the former team leaving cause the team was in debt and was unable to pay them

[slender skiff]

Sounds like... A scuffed sports anime

[silver robin]

it is

[grim pebble]

Investing in TF2 keys is a way better idea

Korean story?

[silver robin]

Na its anime original

and jp

[dry moon]

Apparently there’s a racing anime coming out sponsored by yostar

Or something

[silver robin]

they somehow got sawano to do the opening though

idk how

[ivory mauve]

Speaking of racing

[silver robin]

*only the opening not the entire soundtrack

[ivory mauve]

IGPX will always be remembered

[dry moon]

No, it won’t. What’s that

that came out a little wrong

[ivory mauve]

IMMORTAL GRAN PRIX

Mecha hotwheels

[slender skiff]

The guillotine actually goes "Yo" here

bloody hell
for mia that is

why does it look like she's eating the subs here

talk about thunderstruck

anne has... a very creative imagination

beautiful

@quaint patrol

Note: Same person

[grim pebble]

@ivory mauve

Is this fucker have teleportation?

And why he have low opacity

[slender skiff]

She trying to dodge the guillotine now

Bruh

take this scene outta context if you will

[ivory mauve]

See what i meant

[ivory mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-trying-to-manipulate-me-mind-games-manipulator-get-inside-my-brain-stop-manipulating-me-gif-15157615

[slender skiff]

for some context

those are her own thoughts

[ivory mauve]

The master manipulator

[slender skiff]

master of going with the flow

[ivory mauve]

I love her monologues

[trim swan]

🐌

[grim pebble]

What you mean

[ivory mauve]

It is

[ivory mauve]

Idk why there's a t at the end

New type BS

[silver robin]

desu wa

[trim swan]

do not the desu wa

only cute British anime girls get that privilege

[grim pebble]

I would say the guy is cable of breaking the dimension

[ivory mauve]

Did you finish the unlucky days episode

[silver robin]

ですわ

[trim swan]

@slender skiff ban sam for non english language pls

[grim pebble]

Yeah

Dude clearly can teleport back to Japan for food

[ivory mauve]

That was just. Sad

[grim pebble]

At least he uploaded all the footage he got from the camp

I thought he was gonna do a divk move and delete it

[ivory mauve]

He's not a bad guy but he's clearly messed up in other areas

[grim pebble]

But does he have any influence on the strike on the camp

[ivory mauve]

I don't really know

That's a mystery

[slender skiff]

They haven't actually announced that its split cour

You baka

[slender skiff]

[slender skiff]

I'm gonna ban you for being a baka

[trim swan]

also I meant this
#anime-manga message

🐌 💨

[slender skiff]

That's also not a confirmation

Actually

[trim swan]

[slender skiff]

@silver robin

Lmfao

It actually got axed

No wonder

Well back to looking for TLs for bokutachi no remake then

Turns out being a doujin artist doesn't make you the best at writing plot huh

[trim swan]

makes sense

this manga is good stuff 👌👍

[slender skiff]

Not that they shouldn't try to branch out but like

Perhaps start as an illustrator for LN/manga first

Before plot

And then you end up like kanokari's author I guess

[trim swan]

eh writing LNs imo is a hit or miss type of thing

[slender skiff]

Illustrator

For LN

Not writer

[trim swan]

[slender skiff]

Cooper pls

Just like a certain Tomose Shunsaku

The illustrator for Classroom of the Elite

He's largely the reason why the series is even as popular as it is

But he started his trade as a doujin artist, and then became a character designer for an eroge

Though he isn't particularly creative with his designs admittedly...

But the art quality is good so

I unfortunately can't link his Twitter here

Since the first thing you will see is a Toki dakimakura

https://vxtwitter.com/ike_edi/status/1714917276955390148?s=19

So instead

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

On a side note

The latest renai daikou chap

Reads like a kaguya one

Same set up
Same punchline

Completely different joke of course

And yet still sets up some backstory

Sasuga akasaka sensei

[flat cedar]

Apparently Kikansha no Mahou wa Tokubetsu desu

is a manwa

that got a proper anime adaptation

I can already say

the anime is the definite way to go after checkin out the manwa

[thorn briar]

New conan episode

[grim pebble]

Why the f if you combine Sci-fi and post-apocalyptic most of the time it will result in fantasy or low fantasy

[flat cedar]

Wow

the anime changed alot of the manwa

[ivory mauve]

||He's responsible for everything!!!!!!!!||

[flat cedar]

For example: ||Romantica showing shotacon ish tendacies towards Pram. Cutting out unessaary backstories currently||

and also skipping Desir asking pram to join his party

[ivory mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/japan-suit-car-anime-cartoon-gif-7931159

Nope nope nope nope

[grim pebble]

Does this require me play all the game in the series and then watch a bunch of video essay lore video to understand the plot

And tf happened to everyone clothes

[grim pebble]

Committing suicide isn't an act of bravery or fanatic

That just mean you know damn well you can't handle torture

[thorn briar]

Her hair style is weird, but she sounds like Tsukuyo from gintama

[grim pebble]

I bet the next plan gonna

Take an interesting turn

[somber relic]

Kitada Ryouma known for not being good at writing manga plot tbh

[slender skiff]

I can't really think of doujin artists that went on to do good manga tbh

[silver robin]

nagatoro

[somber relic]

Oh also jokes aside, I know one doujin artist who surprisingly write a novel, and the manga adaptation of it able to make me cry

[trim swan]

nagatoro ain't a good one

[silver robin]

i dropped dokyuu hxeros after 3 episodes

[slender skiff]

Like even if you account that type moon started as a doujin circle...

[somber relic]

I also can't believe it at first

[silver robin]

yep

[slender skiff]

Well writing is a different talent yep

[somber relic]

@slender skiff https://anilist.co/manga/122329/Jikyuu-300yen-no-Shinigami

You know

When I see the author name

[silver robin]

[somber relic]

I thought it's just some random novelist I never heard their name before

[slender skiff]

Now that's an interesting plot

[somber relic]

I never expected it's turned out to be the same guy who have several work on fakku

[slender skiff]

WAIT

Ok no I'm just imagining things

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

Btw is the manga a complete adaptation?

I'm guessing it's a rather short LN

[silver robin]

probably just 1 ln volume

which got adapted into 3 manga volumes

[slender skiff]

The LN isn't on anilist

Weirdly

[somber relic]

Oh forgive me, there is also another one https://anilist.co/manga/91070/The-Magnificent-Grand-Scene/

This author got like what, almost 20 titles on fakku

[slender skiff]

Amazing kek

[somber relic]

Cuvie is basically like Oda or Kentaro Miura in doujin's work

True veteran

[slender skiff]

The synopsis reminds me of one of them one shots

But hmm

Though my reading backlog is growing

I'm barely halfway thru vol 7 of trpg isekai

I forgot how long each volume was

[somber relic]

https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/藤まる/dp/4575520624/

[slender skiff]

Oh wow

Now that's gorgeous art

[somber relic]

Only one volume novel

Similar with I had that same Dream again and Pancreas

@slender skiff jokes aside the artist is the same with titles I mentioned above

The manga adaptation of it lol

[slender skiff]

pancreas

That pancreas?

[somber relic]

Yes

[slender skiff]

Oh lordie that's a ride alright

[somber relic]

Kirihira Izumi

[somber relic]

I also found it hilarious that the artist manage to draw multiple manga adaptation of emotional novel but can't write good manga on her own

[slender skiff]

That is hilarious

[somber relic]

Also chance that it doesn't exist in anilist because it might be not even counted as light novel

Lol

This kind of shit is the reason why I never submit new LN entry on Anilist

It's really hard to know if something is counted as LN or not apparently

[slender skiff]

It's probably just a "novel"

[somber relic]

Oh wait, I assume you haven't read I Had That Same Dream Again yet?

Still from the same author of Pancreas

[slender skiff]

I don't think I've even watched pancreas

[somber relic]

Tbh I like this more than Pancreas overall (I'm not saying Pancreas is bad btw)

[slender skiff]

It do be like that sometimes

[somber relic]

Even shinigami 300 yen gave me more emotional impact than Pancreas

[slender skiff]

That name is a mouthful now isn't it

Then again if you shortened it anymore I wouldn't know what you're talking about

[somber relic]

My list of the best manga adaptation of short novel (so far)

1. I Had That Same Dream Again
2. 3 Day of Happiness
3. Shinigami 300 Yen
   4., Pancreas
4. Parasite in Love

[slender skiff]

I'm sensing a theme

[somber relic]

Well despite Parasite in Love is in the bottom, it has the prettiest art

I kinda wish Three Day of Happiness manga drew by this artist instead lol

[slender skiff]

For a brief moment I thought that was some AK character

Not sure why
I'm reminded of katawa shoujo when I see that

[somber relic]

Ah also excuse me sir, they only shared same vibe (sad and gloomy), but their premise are completely different

Only Three Day of Happiness and Parasite in Love which actually have romance as one of their major premise

Oh nvm I missed Pancreas somehow lol

Well tbf the romance in 3 Day of Happiness isn't even the main goal of the manga

Only Pancreas and Parasite in Love which used romance as their main setpoint

[inner sphinx]

Sasuga Mia-sama

[echo quiver]

i didn't expect to see #anime-manga so animated today

[silver robin]

friday sat sun are the 3 biggest days for anime release

[echo quiver]

it was a pun

[silver robin]

monday too

[echo quiver]

because of all the animated gifs

[somber relic]

@silver robin correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Admiral Hipper pretty much inspired from Asuka Langley of Evangelion?

Her childish tsundere personality, tits size, her being German, and character design overall

Or am I actually wrong

[silver robin]

no idea

but could be true

[somber relic]

You haven't watched evangelionn yet?

[silver robin]

i haven't

well actually i watched the first episode

but asuka isn't in the first episode

[somber relic]

Oh

Damn

I think I have to remind myself that this place isn't really a weeb server

[silver robin]

[somber relic]

No wonder lot of ppl in #general missed the reference

[silver robin]

its just i don't like old anime art style

[somber relic]

Just watch Rebuild Movies then

[silver robin]

probably should

[somber relic]

The art got major upgrade compared to the original TV version

The action as well

[somber relic]

This is definitely doesn't looks like old anime art style for you right?

https://tenor.com/view/ramiel-evangelion-angel-gif-25650203

We also have this

[silver robin]

wao

[faint crag]

nah, it's just that sam watches so many seasonals, he has no time to watch anything that actually finished

[silver robin]

also true

my current seasonal list

[somber relic]

I'm not even blamed Sam lol, I only surprised that I was tried to use Evangelion reference for Hipper (because she is really similar with Asuka) and it simply flew over their head (in #al-general)

That's why I tried to ask here

Cuz Im assuming ppl here is nerdier than ppl in #general

[faint crag]

it was a really popular joke back in the day, so prolly just got unlucky with the crowd

[silver robin]

[somber relic]

Good ol' 2018-2019 day when ppl haven't exposed with shitty Isekai sadge

I'm a gph person at that time

[silver robin]

wao

old gen gph

[somber relic]

I still remember Restart when he was a lil' mod at that time

We don't even have lil' mod anymore here right

And Nerezza before he became a Fubuki simp

[echo quiver]

eh, i havent seen it either

i dont like giant japanese robots

[silver robin]

na but its still orang and red

[weak glacier]

I'm close to 200 rn

I'm watching Chrono Crusade rn

I'm negotiating to buy an A2 and a Monika nendoroid

[silver robin]

esports anime showed someone getting kicked from their team for saying something controversial on a podcast lmao

[solid nebula]

thought this was Kings Avatar for a sec

[stable herald]

wait what

[trim swan]

[stable herald]

Shes not sad cuz her nanny didnt tell her, shes sad becuz her nanny will be executed. Atlease if luna knew, she would have a standing to protect her nanny.

Also, even tho shes currently the strongest of all the Rucandel siblings and rejected the future patriarchy seat. She didnt realized how truly dangerous her other siblings are. Especially that Luna still "loves" Them as an older sister

Sauce: swordsmaster youngest child

Shes a very strong character and quite naive. Good character writing

[trim swan]

the nanny is literally bullshiting to get out alive

how tf did you even miss that plot development

then again that makes sense

[silver robin]

yes

im not joking

[stable herald]

Ik shes tryna save herself, but expect a nanny in Rucandel to die raising the flagbearers, so her reasoning is quite logical

[ivory mauve]

Nice

[stable herald]

At the same time Luna got killed from the inside

oof

[ivory mauve]

Noooooo

[stable herald]

And i thought this was fate just because the word Servant

What manga?

[stable herald]

I love that in the manga, sometimes when shes enjoying something, a cat ear would just pop out on her head

[slender skiff]

You missed the part where she turned to stone

Smh

[slender skiff]

You do know why... Right?

[crisp talon]

it is not even a gif. smh my head. .

[stable herald]

wait what

[slender skiff]

Because maomao means... Cat

[stable herald]

oh

[slender skiff]

[stable herald]

HOLY SHIT

I just knew that

[slender skiff]

It's a common name for cats because it means cat

And she behaves like one too

[stable herald]

Ooh, Mao is cat

maomao is panda

[slender skiff]

Well

Yeah

Though it's more a Chinese joke

@silver robin btw you were right

It's on Netflix now

[silver robin]

livechartme ftw

[slender skiff]

What are those tags tho

[silver robin]

what the fuck

She'll be the best student in modern medical engineering

lmao

[silver robin]

looks like the first 3 episodes will cover the first manga volume

which was only 4 chapters

[slender skiff]

More like best student in TCM

[stable herald]

Knowing her enthusiast....i dont think she will only stop at tcm

lol

Thats why i said medical engineering in general

did u not see the gigguk vid on it

also i read this before the anime was announced so

Mfker, i thought the german dub would sounded cool

But its hilarious as hell

[slender skiff]

Apothecary is as well animated as I anticipated

And Kevin Penkins' music is extremely fitting

I'll be honest

She barely sounds like Aoi Yuuki

It's only when she gets particularly emotional (whether excited or unhappy) that you can tell
That or when she's grumbling

Otherwise her rather dispassioned demeanor makes it hard to tell

The attention to detail is amazing

You can tell see the slight changes in complexion when the consorts are ||poisoned||

Also wait, is Xiaolan voiced by Klee

Lmfao

Oh it really is her and not just her being excited

And

[stable herald]

Oh no

she'll get thicker

Not a bad thing for us tho

[slender skiff]

Yo wtf

Atsumi Tanezaki got 3 major roles in 1 season

Wtf

[stable herald]

tqvm

Is,....that the same manga?

[somber relic]

No

[stable herald]

It wont be an issue to send the sauce right after an img sent, if its not a well known mainstream series.

Just saying

[boreal oyster]

no

let the siren suffers

[slender skiff]

@quaint patrol @faint crag lmfao

[stable herald]

Name

[stable herald]

Name

[thorn briar]

Yes , please break up with him

How is she even dating him now and doesn't see him that much

In his older form of course

When he is as conan , he even said that he took showers with her

[faint crag]

[somber relic]

Holmes || literally single in his fucking entire life, it's possible that he died as virgin, though Arthur Conan Doyle never bother to explain that to the reader ||

"ain't good with romance" is a massive understatement

[thorn briar]

Wait , so conan will be single

[inner sphinx]

Make the Exorcist Fall in Love

[stable herald]

Tqvm

[stable herald]

Is it a bother for me to ask this one too?

[somber relic]

Well, he is technically not single anymore isn't he?

I remember Kudo already || confessed to Ran in England when there were tennis tournament or something like that ||

What volume was that again

[somber relic]

Anyway, Kudo and Sherlock Holmes are completely different anyway

Sherlock Holmes practically live like a goddamn hermit (but also a drug addict sadly), dude is totally a weirdo

Meanwhile Shinichi Kudo well, while he is a genius, he is practically a normie

They are hardly similar at all

[thorn briar]

After 1000 chapters they are dating now

Or 900 episodes

And she kissed his cheek

When they were supposed to kiss for real

[somber relic]

Well, anyway you already answered your question by yourself then

[thorn briar]

He started becoming small so he ran away

[thorn briar]

I still don't ship ran with conan

[somber relic]

But yeah like what I said before, Shinichi Kudo and Holmes isn't similar at all

Shinichi Kudo is simply fans of Arthur Conan Doyle's work and that's it

[somber relic]

Personally I found their romance meh, if anything Heiji x Kazuha pair is more entertaining to watch

They are easily able to become a a good romcom pair if the author want to, if only the author give them more screentime

[thorn briar]

I used to ship conan with ran when I was a kid cause the dub made ran as kudo's fiance

[somber relic]

You know what, or Aoyama Gosho can make Kudo handicapped as a kid permanently and the manga will turned into an onee x shota manga

[thorn briar]

And haibara already calls conan as a perverted old man

[thorn briar]

That would be great

[somber relic]

And now I just realized Case Closed might be one of most mainstream onee x shota manga (in a way)

[thorn briar]

But , I need mary to get back to normal

[thorn briar]

U made me realise, that its already one

[somber relic]

Or maybe Aoyama Gosho need to plan the final arc of the manga soon before he die

Case Closed already serialized a bit too long

Just how long he want to milk the manga

[thorn briar]

Idk

[thorn briar]

I agree

And there is a new girl that likes heiji too

[somber relic]

WHAT

[thorn briar]

So , it's a love triangle now

[somber relic]

Holy fuck, the author really want to milk the manga dry

Now that's disgusting

Just end the damn manga already

[thorn briar]

This girl

Apparently, she calls him as her future husband

And she knows him since they were kids

He promised her

That he will marry her I think

[slender skiff]

That goes for a lot of series really...

[somber relic]

What romcom manga Aoyoma Gosho got inspired from

[thorn briar]

Momiji has a butler too and her butler does his best to ship her with him

[somber relic]

[thorn briar]

I like her butler

He was in the secret police

[somber relic]

There are not so much long serialization title still ongoing currently, though I did agree manga like Komi-san and Tonikaku Kawaii should ended like year ago

[slender skiff]

Tonikawa actually has stuff cooking

[somber relic]

And Ippo is just being Ippo lul

[slender skiff]

Though whether it's for the best

I question

Hata doesn't cook plot too well

[thorn briar]

100 gf maybe, idk

[slender skiff]

100gf is pretty new tho

It's only like 2-ish years

[thorn briar]

But , the romance is too much in conan , I don't like it that much

[somber relic]

Well that was a joke, childhood friend promise troupe in romcom manga is common

Before 100gf exist even

[slender skiff]

Nisekoi

[somber relic]

Yes

[thorn briar]

I don't like it

[slender skiff]

Completely overused it

[somber relic]

At least there are still very fews childhood friend romance manga which actually good, fews yeah but better than nothing

[slender skiff]

It's not really still

More of

There are only

Like you can count the number of decent series

[thorn briar]

That's why I dropped the quintessential quintuplets

[slender skiff]

Where the childhood friend wins

[thorn briar]

[somber relic]

Or maybe just dodge harem manga

Easy

[slender skiff]

Nisekoi doesn't count

[somber relic]

Doesn't count as harem?

Or what

[slender skiff]

Childhood friend winning

Cos all of them are childhood friends

[somber relic]

Lol

[thorn briar]

The good ships in conan are already married

[somber relic]

You mean Kogoro and his wife?

[thorn briar]

No

[somber relic]

It's not wrong though

[thorn briar]

I mean mary with her husband, haibara's mom and her husband

[somber relic]

Can't wait for Kid to steal Ran from Shinichi so Gosho will have excuse to make the manga longer

[slender skiff]

To love ru had the childhood friend win

[thorn briar]

YES

Please

Steal her away

[slender skiff]

Nagi no asukara

[somber relic]

sadly we don't have Case Closed ntr doujin

[thorn briar]

Actually wasn't she going to kiss kid once

[slender skiff]

And I think that's all

[thorn briar]

Wait

She swam with kid when he disguised as kudo and she knew it was kid too

[somber relic]

Nagi no Asu is romance with ensemble cast so if you count that one, I have complicated feeling

But well you are technically not wrong though

[slender skiff]

I mean for the main ship

[thorn briar]

Haru

[slender skiff]

It's a love heptagon tho to be fair

[thorn briar]

Heiji was going kiss kid once , cause he disguised as kazuha

[somber relic]

It was a love heptagon but then in the later half part of the series it turned into romance with separated cast

Like they already went with their own lives

[slender skiff]

It was a love Pentagon

That became

Some ungodly eldritch mess

I feel like it was trying to be too many things

[somber relic]

For me not really, it's just the symbolism of how ppl grew apart when they already grown up, though in NagiAsu there were some supernatural element including some time freeze bs

But aside that it's not really that complicated (aside characters relationship)

[slender skiff]

Yeah... I feel like the story would have done better had they kept the relationships down low

To focus on the plot

Or vice versa

It's literally ponyo with teenagers

[thorn briar]

2 of the best girls in conan

[somber relic]

@thorn briar btw wait a minute, Merry already married?

With whom?

It feels like we read/watch different thing

How I never know of this before

Is this revealed in the latter part of the story or what

[thorn briar]

Tsutomu akai

[somber relic]

HUH

What

[thorn briar]

Mary is shuichi's mom

[somber relic]

WHAT

MERRY FRICKING HAIBARA?

[thorn briar]

Haibara's mom is Mary's little sister

So akai and haibara are cousins

[somber relic]

Oh wait

[thorn briar]

[somber relic]

Yeah I remember merry now

Merry and Ai Haibara are different person don't rhey

[thorn briar]

Akai was dating akemi which is his cousin too

[somber relic]

@thorn briar

[thorn briar]

Yes

Mary is 53

And became small cause of the drug

So , she's the 3rd one

[somber relic]

I'm so fucking lost

Oh well it's not like I have interest with picking up Case Closed again

Fuck that manga

[thorn briar]

Actually yes

[somber relic]

Anyway good night fellas

hype

[thorn briar]

In the manga she appeared in ch 875, and in the anime: episode 756

[flat cedar]

A returner's magic is actually pretty good

just caught up to chapter 241

MC is not OP

and even when he does do an op thing (which will probably be in the anime) it's not without cost and is appropriately punished

|| Desir loses an Eye permanently when stopping the Demon from destroying the region when invoking dragon magic due to the strain it was putting on his body. It was a perma reminder of him reaching magic he shouldn't be able to and the cost of that. ||

Im glad there's actual concequences

Im kinda glad they handled the story pretty well

Because "oh I returned from the future to my past" type of stories can be total trash

[somber relic]

they handled the story pretty well

Except they actually don't

The theorycrafting is messy

[flat cedar]

explain

Because I think the story is reaching the climax

after much loss and gain

[somber relic]

1. At first we got told that Shadow World is some invasive extra-dimensional world which invade the real world, to solve the problem human have to visit those worlds which happened to be some kind of parallel world which showed us the history of the past, and human there have to complete some mission that showed randomly by the system(?) to beat the world, and apparently we can take artefact from there to the real world

But here is the confusing part, so what's truly the main cause of Desir's world became so badly ruined? Yes sure the author explained that humanity got overwhelmed by Shadow World, but the way of how Shadow World work and the content inside Shadow World itself is so random it might as well created by some game world generator like a fucking Terraria, and that's still not including why there are game-system like in that fucking World

2. The "magic circle" system is so flawed. So apparently magic circle is innate talent of a person and you can't change it unless you are the damn MC like Desir who can increase his magic circle with some plot convenience

My real problem with this concept was the power scaling of the magic circle itself was pretty vague. Readers have zero idea what the capability difference gap is between a 5-circle magician and a 2-circle magician, for example. In the manhwa, they only showed high-circle magicians spamming overpowered magic, but a low-circle magician like Desir can use high-rank magic. There is no real theorycrafting on what magic limits you can use at a certain number of circles.

I mean the author simply never bothered to even tell us what the basic skill/magic in the manhwa world/universe is; the author just expects the reader to turn off their brain and accept any BS the author throws at them

Also the worldbuilding itself have good concept but the execution also full with flaws

And I dropped the manhwa when it reach big Shadow World war because the plot became too unbearable to read for me, especially the homunculus fight

And the fight scene art also getting worse somefuckinghow

[flat cedar]

Well they're on the final arc

which is after the shadow world war

[somber relic]

It feels like I read ToG again

God it was so fucking bad

Just spray of color everywhere

[flat cedar]

Here's hoping the anime can smooth some things out

because there's alot of changes.

[somber relic]

Anyway yeah, I have love & hate issue with this manhwa

[flat cedar]

Ngl.

[somber relic]

One of very few title I dropped after I read more than 100 chapters of it

I rarely drop stuff which I already read for a long time

[flat cedar]

I hate that Desir never told them once about his return

and grieved with ||A dead Zod at the hands of the priestess|| about that

I spoiler tagged this because its apart of the final arc

[somber relic]

Anyway I really hate magic circle system in returner magic

At first it looks interesting but it became so awful

It's so fucking bad it's even way worse than combat system in your average action shounen manga

[flat cedar]

I just hope the Desir does what I hope he does

because that person deserves to be beat to the ground

The overlaying issue however is that

[somber relic]

I might just skimmed Returner Magic to see || if Desir and Adjest finally become a lover || (copium)

When the manhwa already completed obv

[flat cedar]

We never found out why things were deviating so much from what Desir thought would have happened

Maybe its butterfly affect

because ||Zod Dying, That one commander guy he was fond with was turned into a mutant, the priestess turning on everyone and being the reason the last arc is happening||

is pretty out there

[somber relic]

Or it's just what happened when you try to change the future (and Desir technically already did that so of course the outcome will be difference, as if that's not obvious already duh)

And I don't even care about that anymore

Maybe what really pissed me off with the manhwa was the art is getting worse

[flat cedar]

I just want a beat down

[somber relic]

At least I don't mind reading mid title if the fight scene doesn't looks bad

[flat cedar]

I dont care if it makes desir looks villanous

[somber relic]

But this manhwa

Sigh

[flat cedar]

Idk where the anime would even stop at

since the anime is around chapter 14-15 currently

on episode 3

[somber relic]

Reminder the manhwa's plot also was deviated in some part, though the artist said the major outcome of the plot still the same

Well anyway it's been a while since the last time I rant about Returner Magic lol

I apologize because you had to read my wall of text rant with brokeback English

[flat cedar]

Yeah I already saw when Romantica was being a bit shotacon

towards Pram

that there was some difference

I still think its rare that a Manwa gets a proper anime adaptation

And they definitely changed alot of the more earlier stuff to make Desir doesnt come off as creepy

to romantica unlike the manwa

I just pray the anime does well

because if the anime can correct some of the rather long and tedious stuff of the Manwa

it could easily be fully adaptated

Again, the current arc is the final one logically.

[somber relic]

You know what is rarer? Manhwa get an actual good anime adaptation

ToG adaptation was shit

GoH as well

Noblesse anime bad too

Me hoping that Terror Man anime adaptation will turned out to be decent at very least

Solo Leveling probably will get carried by Sawano

Or maybe by A-1 too assuming they actually want to make good adaptation of this shit title

[flat cedar]

Solo Leveling is probably gonna get an good adaptation.

Its too big for them to casually fuck up

Ah. looking back at it now

I think the anime for returner will definitely cover desir losing an eye perma

[somber relic]

Btw, is the Priestess the holy woman which used to be in Desir's Party before he got reincarnated or returned to the past whatever you want to call it

[flat cedar]

I know

she's the cause of the final arc

because she needs her head on a pyke
