I'm surprised at how troubled Aki seems to be as well. It's almost sad.

Then was quite fun :)

But why is Rein big with no comment / explanation?

It's the old Reinforce Eins from A's. The "Will of the Tome of Darkness" or whatever. I can't explain why she's like this either.

Also, that talk about cheerleaders and queen bees and the "American school caste system" reminds me of Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt.

Thought this was Mai and Reo from Sono Hanibira for a second there.

I thought the exact same thing.

In hindsight I feel like I should've found someone draw the whole pearl metaphor deal earlier. It's so obvious and cliche, but still looks so great. "Clam diving".

Those pages with all the girl archetypes were absolutely glorious.

Ichiro is definitely a "hit everything" kind of player, but not a prolific home run hitter. He's all about that safe single, which this manga can probably twist into innuendo all the same. So the reference is close enough, I guess.

Hng, too perfect. The big shot at the end with Fate-chan smiling is like a follow-up to that last doujin

Oh hey, I found ShinGX

Not enough Aoi shilling. Can't say Aoi is a bad choice though.

I wonder who's her "boyfriend" ...

Feito-chan knows her flower language. Like Tsubomi from Heartcatch Precure (seiyuu connection!)

It's like that trope where two people go do something scary, then one of them gets really scared and the other comforts the on that got scared and they bond.

Of course the author knows what they're doing. XD

I think it's kinda obviously destined to be non-romantic yuri. Ayari is just figuring out what it's like to be able to be open and herself around others, and it's sweet that she's able to make those small steps with a sister that was sorta thrust upon her and so different. Bonding through food is the best. XD

Can you believe I've actually run into series where the creators did not know...... .... .... well...

First time I saw Ben Ten: I didn't know they were cousins. The longer I watched it the more I wondered if the creators knew they were cousins. I checked FF.net and no one cared that they were cousins.

Those fan fiction authors probably cared very much that they were cousins.

Just like how shippers reacted with to revelation that Ryuko and Satsuki from Kill la Kill are sisters. "EVEN BETTER!"

New Gay woohoo

At first it looked like one of Kyouko's Mirakurun doujins from Yuru Yuri, then the "anti-magic" got dropped and I was reminded of Nanoha. I thought "NanoFate science babies would be a great idea!" but there's already Vivio.

I've known of Little White Butterflies for years and years and years, and I've seen some horrific shit from them. Once in a blue moon though, something vanilla, or almost vanilla, comes out of 'em, despite the fact that they've spun off Team Vanilla as a dedicated vanilla group/brand/whatever.

Yuzumori has the stand "Don't Stand so Close to Me". She uses it to guilt trip adults into giving her free food.

I was going to drop another not-really-related Eurobeat reference and link "Don't Stand So Close" but after looking it up, I realized there's actually a more famous song called "Don't Stand so Close to Me" by The Police. Then I finally figured out this reference.

Yuzumori has the stand "Don't Stand so Close to Me". She uses it to guilt trip adults into giving her free food.

Otherwise, someone will call the POLICE

:V

The last page too "Aren't you supposed to be a girl" that makes no sense is actually "You weren't a virgin, right?"

I remember this from Valkyrie Drive. Shoujo can mean virgin as well as girl, IIRC. Speaking of Valkyrie Drive, that blondie reminded me of Mirei, just with a polar opposite personality, of course.

Oh, and looking back, those uniforms hid their big breasts pretty damn well.

/ak/'s sub of the anime has the same issue. They could not decide whether or not to leave senshado senshado, or use the German term "panzerkraft". Nor could they decide to leave Onee-chan Onee-chan, or leave the -sama honorific in. No clue why they left tanoshii untranslated, but they fucked up in other ways besides that.

More Kuttsukiboshi translated. Today is a good day. Thanks. But holy file size, Batman.

Top left, cover: "Indulgenge"
Pg. 3, top right: "dissapointing" -> disappointing

Tbh, the cover should be a pretty obvious place to spellcheck, shouldn't it?

Re-reading this after finally watching Girls und Panzer and Der Film, had a good laugh at the end because it kind of ties into the end of Der Film... in a way.

I'm not very familiar with KanColle or Japanese, but is it accepted in Japanese society for the younger sister call her older sister [given name]-chan instead of the usual Onee-chan, or is Tatsuta being a disrespectful asshole?

Page 3, top right: "disapeared"

It seems Mitsuko's arrived.

And how much input did Ikuhara have in this manga? Goddamn.

Oh, I didn't realize the dog-girl's name was Inuta Wan. Because she's Oddman number one and "wan" is the sound dogs make.

Jesus Christ people acting like a penis is the next spawn of Satan or something

That happens in Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt. Goddamn Gainax.

Damn, I thought Kobayashi was Saikawa in that scene with Kanna sleeping with her. I thought we had gotten more glorious Saikawa x Kanna all of a sudden.

"OHHHHHH YESSSSSS"

Random thought: Hanayo would be mad enough to ask for onigiri at a McDonald's, wouldn't she. But McDonald's in Japan and other East Asian countries has offered stuff with rice in it, at least in the past.

Nico, exclusively top?

That is the best joke I have heard in a long time!

Just read more Sekihara doujins with Nico in them. At least to her, Nico is exclusively top...

Will you please think of the children?!

I suppose you are still a child
Refers to herself in third-person right after

Ayano x Yui

Consider me baited.
