A buff bottom girlfriend was not on my bingo card, but should be.

A buff bottom girlfriend was not on my bingo card, but should be.

I believe the technical term is "butterfly bottom girlfriend"...

I'm bisexual, and usually prefer bodies that are more stereotypically feminine in appearance, but there's just something about buff women. Buff guys, gtfo, but buff women, yes please.

I had a girlfriend in high school that could bench press me. Despite being shorter than me (I was a bean pole). That was fun.

That cover made me go "Robin and Nami!?", also very nice thanks for the translation!

Same. And I don't even read One Piece.

My gf is also a bodybuilder

She goes by dr. Frankenstein

Do sparks fly in the bedroom? Does she give you life? Has she made you a bride yet?

I'm surprised to see that you all liked it, the dialogues felt really unnatural to me, and the whole story had a stiff, unpleasant narration

What did you expect? We love muscular women ;)

Muscular women for the win, also yeah this one-shot was fun!

Page 15 be like:

"If I'm gonna die, I'll die doing who I love !
-Don't you mean 'what' I love ?
-I said what I said."

Oh, how I wish we had upvotes

really fantastic to see a gigantic muscle woman who gets to be the neko. would love, however, if we could grow past the racial tropes at play here

first page made me say DAAAAAAAAAAAMN out loud (¯―¯٥) this was really cute and I need more ♡♡♡

Well this was weird. Weird pacing (not sure I followed with what was a flashback and what wasn't), weird drama, and really weird censoring. I absolutely love the Nanbaka school of gender expression, but to me this kind of fell flat.

This got serialized, huh? So, will it be a longer retelling of their story, or take place after both got buff, or..?

If she dies, she dies.

I want to princess carry a muscular girl now. She deserves it.

really good, the only unrealistic thing is that none of them are on testosterone or something cuz damn, i wish building that much muscle was that easy just by eating a lot of protein

It clearly shows that working to get those muscles took a LOT of effort. You don't need steroids.

AJDHRJE WHY DOES THIS NOT HAVE THE COMEDY TAG LMFAO
THAT THIGH --> STRAIGHT TO ER SCENE MADE ME BURST OUT LAUGHING

ahem
Also #goals

nah bro, to look like momoko you gotta be on something. women can't naturally get that muscular (and only a handful of men can look like that either) and not to mention, she’s tall. but miyuki's physique is probably achievable if you dedicate your life to training, bulking, cutting, and are blessed with the genetics to develop muscles like that. that’s why it’s funny when girls are scared to lift cuz they think they’ll look like a female bodybuilde and it’s like…girl… do you know how many years it took me to have biceps?

Not to be mean or anything, but using this one-shot as a source it’s not the best besides it’s comedy, bodybuilders need them, not in bigger doses or anything (honestly depends) the type of muscles most body builders have are out of the scope for their natural body capacity, because the type of muscles body builders want are not “real” testosterone help inflate them to that point. obviously there are different types of bodies in the body builders world, but women in general need them more than men even, as women have less muscle and more fat, one of the reason why some don’t have prominent breast

I liked it for Momoko (probably the second work on here that deserves the Muscle tag lol) but I agree, some people answered saying it because it’s a one-shot or that it isn’t trying to be realistic but it’s not about that, the conversations feel mmm weird? Disjointed may not be the correct word but it’s the most close to what I mean. Obviously this one-shot is 100% readable and understandable, but still a little ???, as you said stiff
But I think I agree with the person above, since it is a comedy, the strange dialogues help to highlight the absurdity of everything that is happening.

This was super silly and super cute lol

so moe & silly

I was thinking the same thing the whole time as I was for SHWD: don't you have to take steroids to get that big?

I think Sono likes muscular women so she drew muscular women lol

At least the people on here discussing the realism of muscular women aren't being like the Amazon review I saw for SHWD, that was complaining about the women being unrealistically muscular and still having large breasts, which lead to the reviewer saying Sono's works are for the male gaze.

Seems more likely to me that Sono is just drawing what she likes.

Definitely lol. The "male gaze" stuff is nonsense.

It would be cool if steroids were just part of the story, like in Love Lies Bleeding. I mean, in this oneshot, the girl spends 3 months unable to make progress --- clearly needs some juice! But then, I guess you can get surprisingly far without them, if you're super hardcore, like the girlfriend apparently is.

For some reason it didn't click that this was the SHWD author until just now. Yeah she seems to have her tastes. Hopefully this serialization works out!

Oh yeah I don’t care if the muscles/steroids are not show in a realistic way or anything like that. Just clarifying to the person that even though the oneshot says that just effort is enough doesn't make it real (since she was responding to a person who said that steroids are necessary to have that muscle mass)
I am the last person that would care about realism haha anime and manga already have very “unrealistic” proportions, etc. When people try to make sense of big breats or big eyes not nose in a medium that has always used deformed features I don’t get it lol

Oh definitely, the body at the end It is completely achievable without anything extra (genetics play in this part obviously but still). Many women actually start taking steroids to change categories and continue competing.

I would mind in a serialization, with a serious tone, but in a light hearted one shot comedy, who cares?
