My grandmother had her heart on the "wrong" side and was blissfully unaware of it for decades. When she eventually did find out, she broke the news to my grandfather, who, as it turned out, had known about it for years but hadn't said anything because he "didn't want to worry her."

She reached the age of 90, by the way, so it's not as though there was really that much to worry about.

ahhhh I need more legs

Trust me, you're far better off as a biped.

I've been trying to figure out who it was that got deleted, but I can't think of anyone that's obviously missing. Has my memory been wiped?

For a moment there I thought Neji had teamed up with Tatsubon.

What does this tag mean?

It's a village in Kent.

Pandacorya tends to do a lot of these short chapters, but also often ends up continuing them. Both of their longer works on here started out as shorts, so there's an outside chance we'll get to hear that long story eventually.

It wouldn't be a Neji manga without some completely out of nowhere drama. I love her manga a lot, but she needs to learn how to gradually shift tone. You can't just go from cute fluffy slice-of-life to near death experience. It just leaves the reader with tonal whiplash.

I know what you mean. Is this series suddenly rushing towards its dramatic conclusion in typical Neji-ish fashion? Answer: No. It's still ongoing as of a few days ago, and there are (at least) five currently untranslated chapters still to come. That's probably not much of a spoiler, is it? I apologise to anyone who was expecting actual plot details.

A nice bit of reversal. A woman who bit off far more than she could chew!
It still bugs me that people are still translating ストッキング into English as stockings instead of pantyhose.

Oh, sorry. I'm not American. In our use of English, we still call those "stockings," but yeah, perhaps I should change it.

I am American, but I still prefer "stockings," so I guess this one is somewhat open to interpretation.

Covers the waist = pantyhose. Covers only up to the thigh: stockings.

This seems to be exactly the same definition of "stockings" as everyone else is using, including the Japanese, so I don't understand why you're saying it should be translated as "pantyhose"... unless you're getting confused by the fact that that's what the other girl was wearing?

Anyway, it is not the translators issue but the editor/typesetter to check (and I used to be one many years back).

This is very true. "When in doubt, look at the pictures" is one of my translation maxims... that I've never listed anywhere, due to being too lazy to ever get around to doing any actual translations.

Snippet of discussion thread:

Does the author have any social media?

Yes the author has twitter
https://twitter.com/nagiFumino

I guess you guys haven't realized the mc is yandere as well.

What makes u say that?¿

Her obsession with the idol and the fact she claimed her as hers. If you know yandere characters then it's pretty obvious. All she's missing is the emotionless eyes.

Unless I completely missed something, you've misread the comic. The "MY Chihiro-chan" text is from the actual yandere, not the protagonist.

I second this, it took me some several seconds to realize this

To be fair, it's partly the author's fault for switching narrators between pages two and three of the first chapter, and then waiting until the last page to show us what they'd done. Bold plot twist, or cheating? You decide...

I was impressed that they were fighting on a moving train. I had the false feeling that the story could end badly like this:

It's obvious that this never happens in a manga. lol xD

(I fixed the image links.)

And that's what should have happened in any universe where train tunnels are constructed to a standard loading gauge. What's with the twenty feet of spare headroom? They could stand one on the other's shoulders and still not be in the slightest danger of scuffing their helmets...

It's frightening how much I have in common with this girl.

I'd keep my eye on this one just in case.

And they've edited in the link. The title of the manga is "Kaede Akamatsu's Survival Guide", so of course they're promoting waterproof flashlights...

The text matches the avatar perfectly:

It's quite interesting to compare the differing use of images in the English and Japanese Wikipedia articles on the subject... but anyway, AFAICT, stockings are stockings in either language, and pantyhose (or tights) are something quite different. (Discounting the oddity known as "panty-stockings", which are, in fact, tights.) If my vote counts for anything, I'd leave it as it is. Not that it really matters here, since we don't actually see enough of the garment(s) in question to be able to make a positive identification in any case...

But I mean the name of manga means they are a couple right?

The translator took a bit of liberty with the title. The original title described her as "女子", which simply means "girl".

On the other hand, it explicitly says it's yuri, so there's nothing to worry about.

2021 goals: disaggregate the Loli from Lolicon

Let's be honest here. Where there's the one, there's usually the other, even if only on the other side of the screen...

Also known as Moke and Moke

Was one of those Mokes supposed to be Yuzuhara Moke?

Akkariii~~n!

From Wikipedia:

The zodiacal ox may be construed as male, female, neuter, and either singular or plural.

And if that isn't a cue to go and read some gender-bender selfcest manga, I don't know what is.

Recs, please. Only one I've been able to find is a manhua called I Am My Wife.

Well, this is the only one I can think of off hand, but I'd be surprised if there aren't other examples out there.

I'd keep my eye on this one just in case.

^The posts at the bottom of the previous page and the top of this one (where it's quoted) are also technically spoilers.

Are we finally gonna get more hate sex :D

Don't get your hopes up. I suspect that even if it does happen, it'll be over in three panels and we won't see any of the good parts in any case. But I'll be delighted if the author proves me wrong...

Eh. If I wanted extended sex scenes, I'd go look up some hentai. This is more for the narrative and artwork, both of which include sexual elements, rather than just focusing on the sex itself.

Actually my problem with this series is not the lack of wall-to-wall fisting per se; it's the fact that the author teases us with the implication that such a thing might happen, when in actuality it's just an attempt to spice up a rather dull story about the daily lives of employees in the financial sector. At least, that's my impression.

I forgot Kano is rich too...I don’t know what’s better, Misono with three maids chaperoning her, or Kano showing up with a fancy car and her personal butler.

Butlers outrank maids, but if it's three against one it could go either way.
