Look at her, just lazing around reading manga all day. What kind of a life is that?

Yeah! You gotta add some more variety. Watch some CivBattleRoyale and wholesome memes and history and stuff. And browse reddit and discord.

I love the waiter not even blinking at their (cute) antics.

TBF that's the sort of job where you will very quickly grow numb to much weirder shit...

lmao this surreal vote-your-own-adventure

Can't say I was expecting Emoji Mk. II to be the catalyst for Minami's character developement arc but hey, if it works it ain't stupid. I can ship it.

Eiko being suspicious for 5 months that Hana was repeating the year, was there any hint of that in early chapters? It seems like just a random number.

I actually started re-reading the series just now and given how much Hana let slip already in ch 4 & 5... Eiko's sharp enough she probably could figure out the general picture from that already, and it'd be very much in character for her to quietly sit on it and let Hana work through it at her own pace.

...also the early interactions between Hana and Hiroe were basically this lmao

Oku being there at the end just for the sake of it it's funny, she had no reason to be there.

...would rather imagine she was there to join the group, being part of the gang now and all. I mean it'd hardly be a stretch to assume Tama and Hana just straight up invited her to drop by while "going around other classes" either?

There is surprinsgly not that much shinobi yuri stories out there and i surely never search for them so it's probably the first time.

Not specifying yuri stories was intentional y'know...

The point I'm making being it's a setting that traditionally, and not unreasonably given the historical context, isn't associated with lighthearted narratives and themes for the most part. Kind of like Cold War spy fiction.

The difference between the maid in heat and the maid not in heat feels pretty minimal lol

I fail to see the problem... ( ͡¬ ͜ʖ ͡¬)

Still, i really feel bad for the idol. She seem to do her best for her weaken clan and make it win when the other clan treat her as a sex object. It's a bit sad when you think about it.

I mean. How many "Sengoku Jidai shinobi stories" have you read that that weren't at the very least tragic...?

Chapter starts out deep and wholesome af and then takes a hard turn to weird shenanigans... around the time Tama shows up.

Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!

...also I can get on board that new ship.

-- that Saki girl that has no presence? I forgot her name.

That checks out.

I did not like this.

okay.jpg

YohaneYoshiko be like wasn't I supposed to be the weird one in this group

I like how Ayaka just casually keeps getting more corrupted lmao

while Sulfur is kinda cool and abit S,

More like she straight up keeps trying to murder Baiser and Leo on sight, unless the presence of civilian witnesses obliges restraint. MILK FOR THE KHORNE FLAKES and so on. Probably Alice too if only due to that whole deeply creepy family-play brainwashing thing she subjected the Tres to...

HONESTY

The Dreamlands sure have changed since Randolph Carter's days.

Lovecraft didn't account for the fact that people will look at the Unknowable nightmares beyond our comprehension and go "Yeah, I can fuck that"

TBF he was a man who apparently felt the shocking revelation of having a -gasp- Negro somewhere in your family tree would be well-nigh enough to drive someone mad with existential dread.

Meanwhile IRL people learn there's fucking Neanderthals and whatnot among their distant ancestors and just go "well that's interesting" ┐(ﾟ～ﾟ)┌

pelican: *tries to vore*
oversized hampster: *no fucks given*

Poor Gujou-sempai. She does try, but ain't winning about Kamiina p much transforming into YAMADA KAORU by the power of Castle Greyskull when she gets some booze in her... .-.

Also by now Botan and Ibuki are like one suggestive cough away from fucking like rabbits lmao

Not that it's news or anything, but Rena's definitely of the Hanashima-sempai school of romance lmao

Heh, I'm not the only one who thinks that Beidou did came to Liyue harbor to meet Ningguang and during Osial attack, Beidou was in the Jade Chamber while Ningguang was aware of it, right? I mean, its funny and its totally possible. XD

That'd also mean Big B couldn't be fucked to help fight off the Fatui and whatnot...

Won't this be the first time we see Cool actually fight, come think of it?

Toilets that are just Holes in the ground can go burn

From Spike Milligan's autobiography:

Sanitary Orderly Liddel was learning the trade of maintenance on the out door hole-in-the-ground latrines. The lime powder that is normally used to 'sprinkle' the pit, had not arrived. He, being of an inventive turn of mind, mixed petrol and diesel and used that. Dawn! Enter an R.S.M. pleasure bent! He squats on pole. Lights pipe, drops match. BOOOOOOOOM! There emerges smoke-blackened figure, trousers down, smouldering shirt-tail, singed eyebrows, second degree burns on bum

I mean that's fair for armies on campaign. Used to be they pretty much just shat outside their tents, which standards of hygiene of course did nothing to lessen the routinely hideous attrition from diseases.

For peacetime civil engineering, not so much.

I giggled way too much at this. (Sekiro has some GLORIOUS mods lul)

Fatui goon squads

I was actually happy to see more of these assholes when Dragonspine dropped. Their shields go down in 2-3 hits with counter element, the only annoying one is the hydro because dendro is their weakness.
There's a shield break guide around: https://preview.redd.it/0sougci6uis51.jpg?width=960&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=f6b07ff420eee3d966318ad5ff60324de0d3ef50
Found it while typing this lol

If you DO have reliable sources of sufficient relevant element damages, sure. Which isn't exactly a given, and the way those dipshits are set up mostly just makes them obnoxiously and aggressively anti-fun to fight in general. The hammer guys in particular need to go die in a fire.

Bonus points if they're located somewhere inconvenient, can hard CC you off there and then reset their HP before you can make your way back to them.

Hillybilly archers

Sucrose or Anemo MC is enough to clean the entire squad in one Q.

The little shits aren't hard to kill, obviously. It's just that you need to do it a LOT (have some more mask drops instead of arrowheads lol) and an awful lot of them are located somewhere inconvenient (and wont to get knocked off to somewhere even more so, like behind rocks or off ledges), and/or part of big Churl blobs that quickly get very tedious indeed to clear.

Actually I think my least favourite among the "basic" commonly-encountered Churls are the big shield bois, mainly because their constant yeeting themselves twenty meters off wherever is a pain in the ass for melee chars and often requires inconvenient repositioning for ranged ones. It all just makes things slow and tedious to get over and done with.

I did do full-circuit farming runs on both a few times. Then I looked at the amount of mats gained, eyeballed how much I'd still need (never mind now in the long run), and concluded pushing wood slivers under my fingernails seemed like a rather more fun prospect.
Even the damn Oceanid is preferable. It's RNG bullshit whether it throws tolerable waves at you but at least it drops mats reliably and you don't have to hunt it down in the ass-end of nowhere.
