ANGELTYPE is awesome as fuck, and this is no exception. Adorable Yuuka bullying Wriggle comics, yay.

A Yoshika focused doujin is good enough, but a Yoshika yuri doujin?? Christmas came early this year!

.... What am I even reading...

One of the worst mangas ever made?

I wouldn't say this is in anyway one of the worst mangas ever. It's weird as fuck sure, but it's got great art, a truly unique premise, it plays with the cliches and conventions of TV shows like Ultraman (I very much enjoy how the monsters look like bad special effects) and the characters are nice and interesting.

Also a big naked girl which is nice.

There is infinitely worse stuff out there, including on this reader.

All I can say is Touhou is probably one of the greatest testaments to the creative power of fandom, creating so much out of almost nothing, not even a framework really. The closest analog I can think of in the west would be Homestuck, which has had large parts of its canon storyline influenced by fan input (as confirmed with some pride by the series' creator).

Amen.

Indeed. One of my fav Mokou X Kaguya doujins ever, and also one of my fav schoolgirl Touhou doujins as well. Really really good read.

Alice is trully a beauty ^^ She looked so beautifull with her glasses -
About the pairing, uh.. I don't really know much about Touhou and i also don't really like it but when it comes to Alice, Marisa or Patchy i'll read it with pleasure :) .. Alice fits with almost whomever, doesn't she? But i really liked Doll Suite and Plastic Heart (Which is just perfect! xD) So i prefer Alice x Patchouli :D

After reading Happiness, Happy End, and I Have No Need For Someone Like You Patchy x Koakuma deserve eachother ... you have to read in the exact order I put them in so you understand the story if you do decide to read it ^_^

Huh, Is "I Have No Need For Someone Like You" a continuation of "Happy End" ? I don't recall in "I Have No Need" to have retrospection to "Happiness" or "Happy End".
But then it's been a while when I read it.

Indeed it is. Panels from Happy End are even directly shown in the comic. Check it out, it's on the reader ;p

Really? Personally I think this is one of the few doujins I've seen that portrays Alice much more like she is in the games; calm, somewhat aloof and not moe moe doki doki for Marisa. I like the more lovestruck blushy Alice as seen in dozens of doujins as well, but this version is a much more accurate depiction of her.

Christ.

Woooo Happy fun fun times with Asatsuki Dou! Everything's a laugh riot in their work!

Thanks to everyone at Dynasty Scans for their hard work making this happen! It's been a lot of fun watching it occur.

I'm happy to see more Yuru Yuri on the site, one of my personal fav's. It's nice to see the home life of one of the supporting characters, and I hope to see more. Yaaay

Also an actual confirmed relationship? In MY Yuru Yuri?? What a tweest.

It was finished I believe, 4 chapters long, but Tranquil Spring only finished the first one. Here'e hoping they either come back from the dead or it gets picked up by someone else.

Just felt like leaving a comment on this one, really nice manga, been one of my personal fav's for a while now.

I don't have anything else to say really, i just really like this manga.

Really loved this manga, especially the badass mom. One of the best.

Wow cool, I didn't think I'd actually get chosen. Neat!

We don't pay you to chat in here. Get your ass to work. Gogogo.

Yes Sir Michan Sir!

Wow cool, I didn't think I'd actually get chosen. Neat!

Jesus christ, on Page 12 she appears to be using Internet Explorer, Yahoo AND Reddit!

It's like the trilogy of unfortunate internet choices/

I thought this was gonna be like a "here are things I like, please recommend some new cool stuff for me" thread, but apparently not. But yeah, I've read everything here as well.

Aki Eda is fantastic, and this is my fav of her works. Just adorable.

I think we really need to just drop the topic now. It's pretty futile. Those of us who don't like the ending aren't gonna change our minds, and the same can be said of those who liked it.

Sound's interesting. I wouldn't mind helping out.

Circlejerk is a word used by people who have no real argument who see numbers of people disagreeing with their own opinions. It doesn't even work here, as it's not a huge group of people all agreeing with each other over and over again. Don't throw random buzzwords around trying to look cool. All these terrible words you throw in like "fan-disappointment" (it's okay to be a fan who is overly defensive but one who points out a single problem is a bad thing?) and "bandwagoning" (yes when numerous people have the same opinion or like/dislike the same thing, this is always a case of a bandwagon, and not, oh you know, having the same opinions) don't make anyone think you have a point, they just make you sound like a grumpy teen.

And you contradict your own points in your post. You say "He couldn't have wrapped everything up in one chapter duh it would have been rushed". But then you say "there's still a bonus chapter you can't have an opinion til you've seen that". So finishing it in one chapter would be awful.....except for when doing so could support your argument? Cute.

If that chapter get's translated, and it turns out to be a perfect ending, I'll be very happy. But until then, no dice.

And also, one annoying annoying point people keep making is "the comic was being cancelled, they would have had to rush things!" So what. Maybe the author should'nt have dragged the comic out so long then. Maybe the author shouldn't have shoved in random characters 3/4 of the way into the comic. (I actually really liked the characters, but sacrificing the main character's development for it is a no-no). Anything would be better than what we got really.

The point that "other couples got together in the end, so that should be more than enough" is very silly. If I'm watching a romantic comedy, and not only do the main characters not get together in the end, they don't even realise they love each other AND the plot point which forms the backbone for the whole movie is abandoned half way through for a bunch of character's who had never even been mentioned before then....that's just bad writing.

The comic being a comedy does not excuse bad writing and lazy development. The comic being cancelled does not excuse a complete lack of a ending. Saying "It's your fault for expecting something more" when the author themselves heavily implied since the beginning of the manga about it is not a good argument.

And the ending of Sisterism is in no way a good end to any series.

Handwavium is summing up everything perfectly.

To claim that you don't expect character development in a comedic story is a fair point. But if that was the case, then why did the author include so much character development for the main characters (hinting extremely heavily that they unknowingly love each other, that series of comics where they are getting closer and closer before it suddenly drops the topic) and why did he include development for the supporting characters (4 of whom were introduced about 6 chapters from the end)??

There is no excuse for setting something up and not following up on it at all. Especially when it is the central focus of the entire comic. If they wanted to make a comedy comic, they shouldn't have implied it would be something more. Worst possible ending.
