Yaaay, Horny Bocchi serialization ho!

Believe that the work on Mangadex has not be redeem to be good enough to be upload here and in any case, Cue asked Stan if it was ok for them to take over the project.

Dynasty's versions are 25 chapters behind the original version, which is getting a new one weekly now, apparently.
Hino-san needed someone to do a sprint to catch up. xKs, the person on Mangadex, doesn't seen to be doing any other series (at least on MD) and thus can provide that with relative ease. Sure, I'd rather have a Cuetie or Cyan Steam version with that bit of extra polish in the long run, but polish usually takes time and/or boundless motivation.

This is getting out of hand. Now Cuetie also want in on the action!

Looking forward to this showing up here in any form, because there’s lots to talk about.

Being caught up to 118 now I can only agree.
Doesn't seem like xKs has slowed down yet, so I'm sure we'll be moving along even further in the next few days, since the original is approaching the 130s apparently.

Edit: Read up to and including ch. 107 just now. The translation itself is okay, but it's a solo job with what feels like little TS and probably no redrawing. It's fair enough to give it a chance, let's see how long xKs keeps it up.

I think the quality is p servicable at the very least. I can't judge the translation itself but things make sense, flow well and the typesetting looks neatly done.
Personally i view redrawing as mostly optional anyway (i tend to prefer the "leave OG sfx and put romanji/translation next to them" way) and they do seem to do their research and stuff. Can't complain so far. Def better than the three chapters before xKs started that were literally just MTLs.

It's really growing on me and I take back what I said.

Would this be a case for Insane Amounts of Hand-holding? Kinda lewd enough to warrant the warning!

Edit: Ah, I think the tag was added while typing :D (or I missed it before, which happens)

It's really less about that and more about whether there will be anything to wait for at all, seeing how Tsuki-chan also has the Chads no Teikoku tag, making that comment essentially a declaration of the Chads dropping this series in favor of whoever else is doing it. So it would be good to know if the other translation is actually worth this, since there have also been plenty of series sniped like this by rather questionable translators.

Yeah, I know. I haven't read the spoilered contents, but I didn't really see any complaints. Guess it's good enough to take the plunge.

Looks like there is someone else doing scanlations of this, I will leave it to them then! Hopefully someone will post it here too

So you deem their quality acceptable?

i can’t decide which anime-villain/scary-authority voice this comment should be read in.

One that insistently demands an answer because it doesn't want to remain in the limbo of deciding whether to wait for the TLs to arrive here and risk spoilers from careless users, get off the thread for an unknown length of time, or hop on Mangadex to get it over with.

Yay for Stan and the Chads!
I, too, am skeptical about the new loli, but I trust the author to keep fooling with us and not lose sight of the goal we shall keep approaching but never reach!

I think it absolutely makes sense that Tsukushi and probably Hinoka are clueless about Sara and Yuu's relationship.
Sara and Yuu may not exactly be hiding it, but they'd obviously not openly announced it previously and close (s)kinship is to an extent less conspicuous among girls, which is an excuse Tsukushi herself very often uses. When they more or less explicitly stated that they were going out by asking about a double date, Tsukushi was in no position to actually notice what was being said and completely absorbed in rumination and self-doubt.

As such, I'd say LTalon's points are particularly applicable here.

While I'm not exactly thrilled at the idea of getting one chapter or less per month for a manga I love that's way behind and (used to) release a new jp chapter every two weeks, I gotta say I'm not quite sure I'm willing to jump ship to another TL.

I saw the title and my brain immediately went to...impure places. I am ashamed.

Please do not the doors.

or rather "please do not eat out the doors"

Short, stocky, a bit chubby. So soft and sexy.

Well, that was interesting indeed. Did not expect her to have received the blood already before the accident. Although we still don't know the exact circumstances that led to this...

True, I also thought it was as a remedy to save her (motivation unknown?). It will be interesting to see where we go with regards to what kind of debt Shiori owed Hinako and how exactly things happened back then.

Still loving it as much as I ever have.
Plus the monsters being drawn to appear truly monstrous is still refreshing.

^ well currently Momo is the one getting the shower, so I'm not sure who's showing that to whom :D

Insane Amounts Of Handholding pls

So Sensei says Nako's still a kid to her and still does everything she does... Oh, my!

That narration on the first two panels totally wasn't straight outta Kaguya-sama at all, amirite?
Also Nekolizer was the perfect date movie.

This is kinda the last manga you'd expect to find well-drawn guns in, but here we are I guess.

Obvious troll is obvious or something: https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/posts/843900

I read it once again every time the thread is dug up. Thanks, it still hurts so good.

Also it's kinda funny how Purin/Miku went from "Baka Serufu" to "Baka Sefure".

Huh, it'd be kinda sad if this really ended up being three chapters and done. Ch1 and 2 are a pretty strong sales pitch.

I've re-read this for, like, the seventh time now and the bottom left panel on page 21 still sent me. As did page 28's midsection, though just slightly less so.
My favorite oneshot.

Make that eight times, and the frames in question still sent me.

Thanks for reviving the thread and giving me a reason to read it yet again :D

Alternative to the "Koharu attracted to useless people" theory. I knew Ayase is lonely and isolated. Her strict upbringing seems to have damaged her social development. But this chapter is about Koharu and it clarifies a lot. Koharu is a little girl desperately lonely for adult attention. It appears that Ayase is the only adult who wants to or is able to spend time with her. I thought of Ayase as silly and delusional but it turns out that (for good or ill) she has tremendous influence on Koharu. I find the image at the bottom of page 16 ("Thank you for having me!") to be haunting.

wdym, how could the image of a little, seemingly innocent, grade school girl going from a slightly dark space (corridor) into the lit home of a certifiable (and pretty much self-professed) lolicon, who's also looming in the doorframe, half shaded, ever be viewed as unsettling :D

It'd be even better if we had another frame with the door swinging shut and going CLICK.

"Is this co-dependence?"

Naaaaaaaaaah, whatever would make you think that of all things?
This manga is clearly about wholesome, healthy and totally non-problematic relationships between healthy people, just like the rest of Daphie's portfolio, amirite? :D

I am very curious to see where this goes. Maybe Ayase has cleaned up since last time we caught a glimpse, so it'll not be quite as bad.

quite the buildup for a scenario that ended extremely quickly with a situation we've already seen them in (the bath) so. idk hoping for something a bit more over a hundred chapters in

The real progress from this scenario came already at its start with the both of them realizing how the other sees them.

That, and Hino finding out first hand what happens to Koguma's body when she touches her. Pretty much the same reaction her own body gives to Koguma's touch in that situation, only stronger.
