I liked this chapter a lot. It's bothered me all this time, that Onibi is so lionized by the other manga club members despite her, you know, not drawing very well at all. It feels like a gag off-tone for the comic, Michiru for example is a talented photographer, clearly.
Since neither Honoka nor mask are idiots, it's always been so weird to me why they talk of Onibi's talent and her not actually having that - or that if she is supposed to genuinely have talent, why present it with a weird joke that she draws those yaoi triangle head scribbles.

With this chapter and the genuinely awesome and wise things Onibi had to say and show to Honoka in her hour of need (and who knows to Mask too similarly) you can get a reason why they might not see her drawings as they are but as they dream they are.

Playing bass? Wearing leather jackets? Despite her highly formal mannerisms and speech, could Mayoi actually be a punk?

She's so punk she purchases very expensive designer clothing though I suppose wearing the coats naked is kind of subversive

A random jerboa VTuber, possibly the jerboest vtuber there ever has been. No other vtuber anywhere can compete remotely in the jerboeing sphere.

In case you don't know, listen for her for about 10 seconds and you do know. In the case you STILL don't honestly know, make way to her in your vtubing schedule no matter how many less jerboa vtubers you have to minimize, because she is and will be one of the best vtuber experiences you will find in the world

Edit: also the author says they "imagine most people drank wine diluted," but I don't think that needs much imagination: wine was essentially a disinfectant used to make safe drinking water for common use. The wine is an additive to stop you from getting dysentery, not the main part of the drink.

This is in an of itself an extremely common myth that is not true

Drinking undiluted wine was only if you were trying to get drunk, which Rachel probably is not doing at 4am on a,
Sunday.

this part is very true though

This has no relevance to the story, but of all the silly magical thinking superstitions Japan has, the sleeping (?) during the day (?) with all the normal indoor clothes on, while inside (?) causing a flu is beyond me.

That said, literally the first two groups I could think of, that being the Franks and the Basque people, are older than that term.

The basque are certainly an exception to many things. But who exactly are the "Franks" now? The french? From 524 AD perspective to the modern day, they are franks, and also bretons, burgundians, occitans and (later on) vikings. Franks are also german, and some others.
But again, this isn't really important and doesn't undermine the fact koreans aren't chinese and wouldn't love being told that, most of them.. I just wanted to catch on to something since I don't talk with people a lot outside my "job"-role :|

a general lack of nourishment in the area, which I think hasn't really been a problem in Japan.

I think it has, for a very long time - not too much protein available to people, I remember reading something in reddit/askhistorians about how utterly miserable japanese peasant diet was in the medieval ages (even compared to contemporary peasants in Europe) and even in WW1 and WW2 times this was still causing issues to them. They tried to find out in WW1 times why all their naval lower men were sick all the time with their mono-rice diet.

But I'm not sure if that actually affects anything about modern time height.

Kind of like how in Dune you use Spice and you get those full blue eyes, in this world you get the neon green eyes if you are cool and MC.

Some are born mobs and such is life.

   ^ Han is a fairly recent term in an ethnographic sense. Dating about 1500 years back. 

Chinese propaganda would appropriate every thing in all the world as them or their if they could, so thus without meaning to otherwise undermine your very good post, 1500 years is very long time indeed. While this is a thorny question due to many reasons, how many peoples in 524 AD Europe (for example) are "the same" people with "the same" name in 2024?

One thing that's interesting is our cool general Tauntaun who is very clearly and openly a hot, long-haired woman, and also a general with a literal post at the front, not just some, say, a weird ceremonial thing.

If this is at least somewhat realistic ancient china, like PLG up there says, how is she a general? This implies men take orders from her. Men have a hard time obeying women nowadays. Military is like THE powerbase and monopoly of violence instrument that men like to keep theirs, even over a rulership position if you note the occasional ruling female queens and other such in medieval europe.
If this is not a realistic china, and instead some slightly more equal fantasy version, and (even if she's really exceptional) people accept an openly female general, how is it a problem if the emperor is not a man? We've at least had like two or something ruling female chinese emperors in real life. Of course it's not impossible the standards might be different, but it feels annoyingly discordant.

I wouldn't be surprised if the author doesn't think about this at all and Lan being a general has no relevance to any sexism or filial piety questions

^^Oh, she's dying soonish?

Worry not, after A9 we will have A10. (Aju?)

She will then have an even shorter lifespan!

On page 5 she is clearly using some sort of portal to suddenly move her hand from up to squeeze the cheek.

But that just comes with being perfect, of course

Mei is an adult, she can make her own decisions.

Not too sure about her ability to make the decision currently facing her

Really not a fan of doing the "I will let you go with one more warning" children's comic resolution, when it is combined with someone/thing who constantly tried to / wanted to commit mass murder and cannibalism, and up until this was highly aggressive, but whatever.

If you suggest a picture and it doesn't go up, is there any reason or permission to try again, like if a different person makes the decision or if it's a slower day and there's less options or whatever.

Like, I assume not, but if people blatantly post their picture suggestions 10 times and don't get banned I wanna know.

I'm pretty certain it's possible to stream to both simultaneously

I know that, many do that, but according to schedule some streams are only on one of them.

More ex-lethal company survivors reappear on greener pastures!

I've never said this like this before since it's cringe, ngl, but the plastic eating ghost was one of my favorites, so please go look at Michi Nathaniel Mochievee's debut and subscribe!

The model is awesome, and the debut is very her and cool.

I suppose some streams will be on twitch and some on youtube. I feel splitting the audience is dumb, but I am not a professional. May actually be, that enough people would not go to the other streaming service no matter what, so hope it works out.

The artstyle and the topic, obviously, has me going all shadow star and wondering if the monster will eat all (other?) humans in the end and they live together in an empty earth.
