I hope they touch on classic patriarchy lineage vs how actual lineage works via this new scope. Men aren't the sole provider to genetics >:[ Especially with the way the story is going and the lost prince having the dark magic, compared to a "all women only magic", I can see ways to flesh this out that I hope the author doesn't just wave away.

It's obvious VP did all the stuff so efficiently to make the rest of the council quit so she could be alone with Prez.

Man, it's so nice to see Ming Wei HAPPY, but I fear potential fallout. I hope there's no punishment.

Just so people don't get the wrong idea, the monster is saying they are LIKE Slender Man in appearance/size, not that they are.

Regarding the translator's notes, pigeons are just another name for Rock Doves, specifically but not exclusively the domesticated Rock Dove yet still also used commonly for the wild variety.

There's also no real distinction between other species of dove or pigeons for why they call them that other than generally the size of the birds. Bigger birds in Columbidae are usually called pigeons and doves the smaller, but it also is inconsistent as a "rule".

Mom really fucked up there. Page 25 specifically (or what's labelled as 25) shows she wasn't ready for nor expecting the absolute clusterfuck that she herself forced to happen. She just thought one stalker was bad enough, but she literally called the starving pack of scavengers right to a buffet, which then turned into an all out brawl. Idk why the school, students, and managers had to apologize when Mom was responsible for everything. Should have had legal charges pressed against her.

What makes an isekai is the whole “dying and reincarnating” thing, so it’s more likely it’s time travel

I’m curious how this girl got sent back in time. Is her room like the tortis? Tardis? The blue box in Doctor Who that does the time traveling thing

Can she go back and forth, or did she build the mills and stuff? Very curious

Isekai has often lately been conflated with reincarnation, but as someone else stated isekai is not about reincarnation. The word/term used by other manga that do have reincarnation usually have "tensei" in the title from the many I've seen, but as with any JP word using kanji you have to make sure the reading is correctly used.

It's been a long time, why's Adachi at odds with her mom?

Ok, I can't tell if emperor not finishing what she said on page 3 is on purpose...or because a oopsie with the translation.

Methinks it's a typo translation error, "their" was meant to be "them" perchance.

Looks promising. Wonder if Shiichasu will get a turn.

Admit it, we all immediately thought it was Mya-nee.

Such a nice ending to the chapter, though. ^_^

No, I thought it was Stalker-chan

Interesting overlap between the chapter and the most recent chapter of How Do We Relationship, particularly ending on the same kind of scene.

Can't wait for the next chapter of HDWR!

100%. The emotions of the current arc are incredible, it's like a "so good you fear how it will inevitably go bad" thing (which is also like the exact same kind of thinking that caused their original breakup lol)

What is “ How Do We Relationship” and where can I read it?

That object to me looks like an anomalocarid mouth tentacle thing. After the aunt found the not fossil trilobites, that's my guess.

Just to swerve away, Slenderman isn't a chameleon, this is a doppelgänger. Both similar in appearance when doppel isn't in disguise from some folklore and pop-culture accounts.

Y'all have already done all the excited squeeing and stuff, so I'mma be the downer and mention the end of pg 13 and the first panel of 14. I get to thinking there's some sad backstory being hinted at there.

"A little loopy from the fever" she's Gaying Out

She's got an acute case of Roommate-oid Authoritis.

It sucks there's no reactions or likes or whatever, cuz that is GOLD

The misogyny in this comments section is nauseating.

wtf are you talking about

Seconded: what? If anything we're calling out the misogyny portrayed by the characters, intentionally so by the author

Once again, I reiterate, I wouldn't be surprised if this ends in a quad of Yu, Minori, Koko, and Mom (i can never remember mom's name)

This chapter seemed like a bit of a jump, I hope nothing bad happened on the editorial/serialization side. On the other hand, seems like we're about to get a title drop in the next chapter after that "wear the world" and "break through to the other side [of the ceiling]"

Was there any hint of men being able to manipulate the special matter? If only women can do it, then forcing a specialization of labor makes some ruthless sense: letting a woman pilot instead of being piloted and making nets looks inefficient. (But grounding the MC because her nets are "weird" is also inefficient.)

We'll have to wait and see if men can or not, I don't recall there being anything to the contrary, so I have a feeling this is just a gender-roles type thing. This story looks like it has some interesting social commentary.
