and then they fucked

Isnt the wrong word crossed out lol

<3 Kawayabug
<3 <3 YuParu

Im sure i've seen some other character in an identical outfit..

Wait wuh~I'm hella late. This a spin off based on sayaka? Where can I read it?!!! I'm never up to date with anything

MAPLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE NOOOOOOOOOOO

yes! love me some yohariko

I didn't recognize the characters in the thumbnail but I could tell from the composition who the artist was.

^ IRL soldiers pretty routinely used things like swords and bayonets as impromptu spits and pokers - which fucked up the tempering mind you...

That doesn't really look toned, just a normal flat stomach hmmm, must be the art style.

Staring contest are tight !

[JIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII intensifies]

inb4 that half-empty glass Sayaka's holding is literally the last beer in the house and possession thereof has thus become Serious Business :v

The irresistible force and the immovable object

That was sweet of Croix.

^ Well, tbh, some weapons really aren't good for much else...
I remember one Nam veteran who explained that M16 rifles were very useful on the field -- for prising barbed wire apart, finding mines and drying laundry. For shooting, on the other hand, better get yourself an AK47.

I mean, Ifrit is basically their child, and Silence's feather is the ring.

Cute, wholesome and adorbs.

^ I'm gonna go with the art style. After all, anime characters are only really distinguishable by their hair and eye color.

Maker mates with made.

SOOO NOOO CHIII NOOO SAAADAAAMEEEE!

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLY!

so this is why yukina hasnt pulled lisa from the dance club to do more practice

Just what we needed.

To recap, Maple and Sally are partners who;
spend all day together
go on dates
take walks on the beach at sunset
share romantic candlelit dinners
have kids
possess matching rings

Yeah. A canon couple indeed.

What is this a parody of?

^ tbf the "Mattel rifle's" stopgap intro during 'Nam was a trainwreck of multiple different design quirks (most notably the specific form of gas operation chosen and the cartridge primer then in use) and FUBARed communication (namely the troops getting the idea the gun required less maintenance and cleaning when the exact opposite was true) running headlong into the harsh conditions of jungle warfare. While the technical issues were ironed out soon enough it took a long time to regain the lost confidence, not particularly helped by unavoidable association with the widespread public disillusionment with the whole conflict (PROTIP: using conscripts in expeditionary warfare is a Very Bad Idea)...
For modern weapons that were legitimately terrible upon introduction look no further than the justly notorious L85. Took the better part of a decade and Heckler & Koch assistance to fix, too...
