...and then there were some cases who were quite unequivocal already in their own time.

Hey this troll is actually putting in some effort. Rare sight nowadays.

Lucksacked the Friendly Neighbourhood Shoggoth Best Girl yesterday which was nice, I've now gotten everything I actually wanted from this banner... plus Bikini Ch'en I guess.

lmao Utena literally going full my little Kiwi is all grown up now and wiping off tears of pride

Yuri is also one of the biggest raging eccentrics in the cast - a no mean feat - which tends to make any interaction with her... interesting.

Banjo Man used Bardic Music!
It's super effective!
The Fox is Distracted!

Also snow leopards are animated plush toys, change my mind

Technically it's sorta possible, sure. But it's kinematically garbage, runs you the risk of cutting your neck open, AND (crucially for manga) looks doofy as hell. Just because you "can" doesn't mean you should: Friends don't let friends use back scabbards.

The alternative is carrying the whole big thing in your hand, typically balanced over the shoulder as long things now are convenient to carry - which is how the very large end of two-handers was hauled around IRL - but that costs you one of swords' major selling points over eg. polearms, namely convenience of hands-free transport, and leaves you with an empty scabbard in hand when you take the weapon out that then has to be no less visually awkwardly tossed aside.

...which sort of thing is partly why the overwhelming majority of two-handed swords used IRL were of rather smaller size, in the meter-or-less class (eg. the katana and various Euro longsword patterns), that could be conveniently worn at the hip or waist as easily as smaller blades.

Re-reading this, Komichi and Erika sure have lots of intense blush sex...

And speaking of Erika is she on a personal mission to turn Touko bi or smth seriously

Also p sure we're missing at least that one extra chap with whatshername, the bug nerd girl :/

...why are y'all even engaging with some obvious drive-by disposable troll acc's provo bullshit in the first place tho?

they had lots of SAN checks afterwards

Cthulhu ASMR

yet more bizarre things I did not know I needed in my life

yandere faces were made

This whole manga shud be about yasude. Change the rest to support characters. Yasude best fucking girl.

Yet you consistently misspell her name...

^not sure what you even mean by "real enough".

I'm pretty sure it's quite intentional the sisters are ever-(or not-)so-slightly wrong in the head without the kinds of legit awful backgrounds that'd screw up anybody that their delinquent SOs have...

^unsure why you find it strange someone would wonder aloud about such an inexplicable - and, looking at the artist's previous works, as far as I can tell (not being familiar with all of the original materials) unprecedented - apparently arbitrary and gratuitous alteration to the original design.

Oh hell yes, the artist totally flexing and I'm not even mad series uwu

^so what kind of lighting exactly would make Ning's off-white hair look blonde throughout while keeping Shen's its base bluish-silvery...?

you could buy one, but that's about as ethical as buying a real person, which is a whole other can of worms.

Most people don't want to be bought, or to be slaves. AI can have very different instincts and motivations.

As if making sentient beings desire such things wouldn't be blatantly unethical.

Puzzled why Ning is blonde here instead of her canonical white (grading to gray at tips) hair tho

What I want to know is what this expression means.

Probably just amazed and maybe even a little shocked how oblivious Hina is.

More like "???". It's never specified anywhere and they're so skinny and androgynous that trying to eyeball a guess is a wash, doubly so with the rather stylized artstyle.

Far and away the least of issues with that kid anyway. Their mom, the witch Medusa, is right up there with Gendo Ikari and Ragyo Kiryuin in Top 10 Caring Anime Parents so... yeah.

The US and UK are now dictatorships no different from Saoudi Arabia

That's not what "dictatorship" even means. JFC people need to learn some elementary political vocabulary, Hollywood clearly isn't providing enough.

^coffee is SRS FKN BZNS yo (╯▔皿▔)╯

But maybe Akane is more like a cyborg than a full robot?

I don't see how that would be any better given that'd just add all the complications of artificial organisms on top of everything else.

Unlikely anyway as by all accounts her upkeep needs are covered by charging batteries ie. no biological systems demanding nutrients an' shiet.
