Yaaaay! I thought this wasn't going to go up! This is my favorite of Kishi's works. It's got a fucking plot, so you know, that's a plus.

Kishi's a dude right? That's always the vibe I get. Plus the given name is Torajirou...

Bakatsuki!! HAHAHA!! Morinaga should use that... The narration boxes could say it, "Bakatsuki desu." Hehehehe....

Seravis right, the manga is actually about US foreign policy.

It's all a conspiracy!
i'm italian and... believe me: there's the vatican in this

This :)

It's a joke. Just a joke.

Michan-sama your avatar is very convincing.

Only I get to call him that!

There's a rule? I'm not aware of that. I would have broken it on purpose.

Nah, not really. I just said that I'd call him Michan-sama if he got to day 5, so now I'm contractually obligated by the rules of the internet to call him Michan-sama. BUT IF EVERYONE CALLS HIM MICHAN-SAMA IT WON'T BE SPECIAL!!!! GOD!!!!

... Do you hate MrE, Michan-sama?

No, just Seravi.

... Why?

my sarcasm identifier isn't working today... this wasn't actually traced was it?

No.

Yes.

this is not a one shot? if is this the case, this remember me about prism

... How the hell does this remind you of Prism???

Or, you know, I read actual books.

Gasp.

What blasphemy is this, reading actual books, well I never. Some people man I tell you...

Scandalous isn't it? I don't know where I went wrong...

When I don't feel like rereading the stuff here I usually resort to shounen manga like Fullmetal Alchemist or Bleach or One Piece or Naruto or Fairy Tail. But I NEVER read the scanlations because 1. they suck, and 2. they piss me off because they suck.

Or, you know, I read actual books.

No. I've read everything minus the stuff I don't like. What's your point?

DAY 5!!! I MUST NOW THANK MICHAN-SAMA, KYRA, MrE, AND ANYONE ELSE WHO HAS HELPED WITH THE MARATHON! (not that it's over yet)

... I really thought it wasn't gonna happen, but you've surprised me Dynasty. If this lasts until the 24th calling you "Michan-sama" will totally be worth it! (Not that I'm not ecstatic you've lasted this long, the 24th is just my birthday)

will there be a new wife and wife ? i'm waiting for it .. i'm excited .. ♥

They're getting a the volume in a couple weeks or something. That's why they're doing the marathon in the first place... I don't think you can expect any yet.

First Reaction: ... Shit, it's a doujin...

Second Reaction: ... OMG it's a GOOD doujin! Yaay...

Morishima Akiko is not only female but said multiple times that she frequents Nichijou. So she's probably lesbian too.

I actually knew that one. Like Phyis said, Akiko isn't all that gender neutral, it's obviously feminine.

And do you mean Nichoume? Nichijou is a manga and a word that means "regular life"

Are most yuri mangaka female? It's sometimes hard to tell from their names, and I always wondered... but not enough to research it...

Thanks to their help this marathon should last well over a week!

... It seems I may have to start addressing you as Michan-sama.

Damn straight.

... Hai...

I honestly thought you'd only last 3 days... It's almost like you aren't dead.

Anyway, thank you Lililicious, great work!

... Payback?

she has got her uniform. Grandpa even said it

And what the fuck makes your perception of right and wrong the correct one and the one that THE ENTIRE READERSHIP has to be subjected to?

what does "circlejerky" mean?

And I don't think think this discussion is meant to be "constructive" necessarily. These are just people's opinions. Are we supposed to talk about the symbolism behind the ending and the true meaning of Haruka and Yoshiko's relationship or something? We're just frustrated it ended the way it did. I get that there are some more chapters to be translated, I even fucking mentioned it on the second page, and what our opinions are now are going to change once those get released, whether we know about them ahead of time or not.

The only way to know for sure would be to watch him create the manga. Talented artists can be good at copying an image over without tracing it, like you said, so that's the only way to know definitively. The issue is that he used well-known photographs as his reference and then didn't change them much. If he'd used his own photographs this mess could have been avoided the same way using physical models would of. He was just too lazy to photograph his own people, and might have thought the quality of his drawings would be better when using professional photos. To me he seems like a lazy perfectionist who happens to be good at drawing.
