they should rename this "4channer and true crime podcast fan"

Oh for once they're actually trying with the production and staff assignments

I'm so happy that Masatsuka Chii's Subtraction Tautology ranked so well in the YN survey. Very proud of them. Probably the most-voted indie long strip by far... they've come so far...

I'm also happy and surprised that ILTV still ranked pretty high on YN, given Inori-sensei has attributed a lot of its popularity to overseas fans.

Finally, the YN results appear to align pretty well with manga getting anime, which is interesting. I think you could easily see the YN-ranking anime adaptations not having Crunchyroll on production vs. DS-ranking anime adaptations tending more towards having CR producers. Although CR-produced anime still tend to drive interest on the JP side, which is cool.

ps the difference in popularity for Asumi-chan is kinda funny. and Girl Friends is conspicuously missing from the JP side, though I suspect that's because it was published in Comic High, which is, iirc, gone, and also the overlap in readers between Kodomo no Jikan and the average Yuri Navi respondent is probably near zero LOL

lol the school journalist girl is awesome

what the heck was this chapter completely sweet and wholesome for

How'd she go from girlfailure virgin punk to pulling the Reversal tag like that? Idk why this specifically is what makes my suspension of disbelief waver but like disaster lesbians don't do that shit. Not without substances. I don't care

Re: Gabi's reply: but... so many of the panels are so irrelevant.... but every chapter with the sex is relevant... ohhhh my poor wallet. maybe I'll just return to #piracy like the #halcyon #days

Oh yeah, um... what's with the title?

The Japanese title is “ロングロングタップオンリーオンリールック”, i.e. literally “rongu rongu tappu onrii onrii rukku”. Not sure what the intent was here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Feels like something out of Otherside Picnic to me somehow... I feel like it's meant to sound like some sort of ritual, i.e. "bow bow clap clap bow"?

That and I assume tap/long tap on phone for recording but I have no idea there, I don't really record and I've never used TikTok

I guess it's like, the viewers keep looking at these kids and don't seem to question wtf they're up to? I dunno.

Yeah, irl their accounts would probably get banned lol, Japan is more private/touchy about kids being shown off on social media

Also yes the author is obviously a lolicon but it still is a bit odd to just put little girls in everything ever without worrying about the rest.

re: LTN, they were having too much sex and it was costing me too much money, does anyone have a list of actually relevant chapters? lol

Goodness gracious Mei being aggressive like that is new

What, you weren't suicidal when you were 10?

These literal 10 year olds running around doing all this stuff... Do Asagao's parents just give her their credit card?

Feel like this one would have worked perfectly fine if they were college age at least

Like the bizarre amount of emotional maturity is fine, the fact they wanna die is fine, but what is this financial power???

This is why I advocate being a nosy bitch who gets in everyone's business. Imagine waiting to get the chisme until it's too late, couldn't be me.

(also lmao at the Dorian Gray excerpt someone posted above. Wilde was a pederast struggling with his self narrative imo)

This is inappropriate but I lost my shit at the "I can make only my upper body a woman if you want"

Haarlep moment, I think.

Given how Niji reacted to the comment pointing out how creepy she was, I feel like she's gonna go full denial mode and shut herself in her room at some point...

she should lose them both

Oh my god the extremely excessive interpretation of the text in this forum is awesome. I don't know that it's wise to spend that energy on this manga in particular but it's hilarious. Thank you for contributing to the world

Also didn't Nanase's sash say "king of Japan"? I guess it could mean today's star in a cultural way. I've never been a Japanese high schooler who won a track meet.

Oh my god that's so awkward.

Theory: Her dad used to be an actor and was in the same drama as the actress that Karin looks like. Karin is a fan of his for some reason

uh the first one was friendship chocolate i guess

So sweet.
I like when flash-forward/timeskip AUs actually mess with the designs a little.

Princesses these days are so dashing... Utena was born in the wrong era, where she had to go throurh all that because gender norms had not yet been splattered all over the floor via anime moe tropes

they're gonna get caught SO fast lmao

Unless the JP cops do the JP cops thing where they don't really bother investigating and just find a perp to stick it on (in which case the brother is heading directly to a life sentence)

That panel of the pressure cooker was distinctly audible. Damn... nostalgia is powerful

dark humor, I think.
Like, "oh god what the fuck" accompanied by nervous laughter and then ten years later you tell it as a funny story because you impulsively need to trauna dump

the cuteness aggression
