Looks like this:

Might be missing page 112. The page list jumps from 111 to 113.

Thanks, fixed!

A Scummy Gap Student With a Hard Life Calls Upon a Lady of the Night, chapter 11 seems to have gotten swapped out for something which is, uh, Not That.

Fixed, thank you.

Since we were talking about tags, I just wanted to throw this out there:
Isn't the Glasses tag a bit useless? I mean it isn't always applied where needed (if it was it would probably tag like half the chapters/images on this site), and it doesn't really narrow anything down the way other tags do since it's so prevalent.
Am guessing it was originally made when it was more of a fetish (maybe less so these days?), but eventually became utilitarian in just marking characters wearing glasses.

Sorry if this was previously discussed already, also I have nothing personal against the Glasses tag.

I believe that the status of this work should be changed from "Ongoing" to "Completed". According to the MangaUpdates page, Chapter 21 is the final chapter.

Um...hmm. I think there may have been a reason for that, but I'll change it back for now. Thanks!

I don't think there are that many items missing the tag, and to the extent there are, I'd be heartily surprised if it would more than double the use of the tag (currently like ~2% of chapters seem to be tagged with it). However, you're basically right that at some point it was a fetish thing and then it got all muddled and may have lost its luster.

Unfortunately this isn't really one for me to take on - what does it even mean for glasses to be fetishized? do some people love just normal stories with glasses girls? etc. - but I'll note it down and expect it'll come up behind closed doors in a few months' time.

do some people love just normal stories with glasses girls?

OF COURSE THEY DO?!

...Or so I've heard, anyway
Definitely not talking about myself here

Is this the appropriate place to tell you a series has been licensed? Because it turns out "I am not a Succubus!" has been licensed by Seven Seas, and the first volume is slated for release on 5/3/2022.

I called an aetist Muramuramuramura Hito because of how their twitter username is spelled, but it should probably be Muramura Hito lol

Please don't. Girls with glasses is what keep me going on.

Maybe you should edit glasses into pekoes profile picture to convince them and upload it here.

In what order do items appear when I add them to my Reading Lists? I can't tell if it's by date added to my list or release date or something else entirely.

Is there any plan to add the option to alphabetize them?

Edit: Is it standard to get rid of anything associated with a manga that gets pulled from the reader? I had occasion to go looking for Ikenai Hito recently, and I just realized that it looks as if all associated discussion also vanished.

They're ordered by whatever date they were posted on the site. I definitely would like that option; I only recently started using lists and I think sorting options is a top priority.

Hmm...no, it's not standard at all. Some threads may be hidden from public view for any number of reasons, but unless they were legally forced to, I can't think of why discussion threads would be remove entirely for content no longer on the reader. I did search and I found this? And this and that. Is that everything...?

Ah, are those discussions for individual chapters/one-shots? If there wasn't a page for the collection, that might explain it. Not sure how to search for a discussion page. Nothing came up when I tried the reader's search function.

I try to keep Licensed material that's no longer on the site in a separate List when I can, for reference.

Why don't we keep the pages for all works removed from the reader (like this) again? It'd make easier to find those orphaned threads...
On the same topic, I'm not sure there're enough cases to justify this, but maybe we can use a Licensed tag or something so we can spot those more promptly?

That works for collections where there's a landing page, but for oneshots you would go straight to the first page, which is no longer there. That's what confused me on Ikenai Hito -- it looks these were released as oneshots, so they would no longer be an active link.

Hey mods, I just suggested the stalking tag for this manga but I accidentally hit the button for just chapter 1, when I meant to suggest that tag for the whole thing. Is there a way to remove your own suggestions?

(Disregard this message, if you'd rather just apply the tag only to chapter 1 anyway, obviously.)

^No need to remove it, the mods can simply not approve it. :P

Just suggest it again, but for the whole series this time.

By the way, is there any reason why Animal ears isn't used for Konohana Kitan stuff?

No worries! We're always keeping this possibility in mind. The series is a bit tricky in that the stalking is very relevant to some stuff early, but then less relevant later...mostly. I'm fine with it as a series tag overall. Thanks!

Having received the following scolding:

Your mockery of 0economist afterwards is no good either.

I'd appreciate a specific citation my "mockery" of Oeconomist so as to avoid no-goodness in the future.

Taking the rest in reverse order. Thanks for the bot reports! They're all dead.

Yes, thank you! We'll follow whatever the scanlator(s) choose to do for this one.

That would help the cause, for sure!

Absolutely correct. Outside of replacing licensed oneshots with empty dummy chapters (which has drawbacks (though they may be worth it anyway)), there's not much to do besides remove them.

In general, we do have and use a Licensed tag regularly, which is searchable as well. Flower and the Star is not licensed, and the artist has not followed up on her desire to release an English language version at any point since the announcement, as far as I know. Unfortunate, but mayhaps a Removed from the reader tag would be apt as well.

You may find anything on the site, I think, by using this Google search templace. I use it for the forums often, personally.

I have no idea, to be honest.

Is a Small Breasts tag possible? There's a Big Breasts tag, so I figured, why not?
