currently reading this manga

yay it's back

^^A person who posts Nazi memes (not to be confused with memes making fun of Nazis) is an actual real bigot. Yea as I said, I agree that such people's works should be removed from this site.

I missed out on seeing the couch scene as touching cause Nami was introduced as being pretty toxic, but I see it now

Hello people, just want to contribute on the side of "Centurii doesn't need to be removed from this site". I understand that certain jokes including certain sensitive subject matter can't be on this site, and I don't disagree on that. But to completely remove Centurii off this site, I don't think it should be done. There is a difference between an "edgy" joke and a bigoted joke. A difference between a joke about racism (good or shitty) and a racist joke. I don't think any artist short of a genuine bigot should be removed from this site.

You may think certain topics shouldn't be joked about, that's valid. But me and other people have different tolerances about these things. I am just voicing my opinion on what I deem would be unnecessary censorship, I'm not defending colonization or bigotry or anything like that.

The story gets deeper and deeper. Now you wonder which daily gags were plot relevant all along.

It's yuri alright

Damn. I got spooked alright. Before this I thought moving pictures were exclusive to the images section. And also at the beginning I thought the forest was a face.

Nice oneshot, I like the vibe. Very memorable to me. I was thinking about rereading it. Cool to see it on the front page.

wow a blushing speech bubble

Came in after the anime announcement and ended up getting disappointed.
Mimi is so childish and underdeveloped that her relationship with Sheena feels like it's onee-loli.

And I hate burying my gays, so I'm gonna sit this one out. Give me fluff and aquariums.

I don't feel that way but I can see why you and others might feel that way. Before the anime was announced, I hoped if they ever made a Kimishinu anime that they not give Mimi a loli voice, which she had in the manga PVs. But the voice actress from the manga PV is returning to the anime sooo I'm kinda disappointed. To me their relationship doesn't feel onee-loli, but it's close alright, so I really wished that they not make it seem more onee-loli than it already is.

yay the new U-temo manga

I don't understand. They brought Mimi back in a bag, in a corpse-like state. Why do the soldiers do this? Do they know about Mimi's secret? Won't they get curious on why they're given orders like "bring her corpse back with other injured mages" while she's almost dead (dead corpses don't need to be bring back after the battle is done), but would happily participate in the battle next time, like she's never harmed? Or is the setting of healing magic like "as long as you did not disappear we can heal you like you're never hurt"?

They are being pretty secretive about Mimi's mangled body in a bag. Mimi doesn't come home with the others when she's injured, a teacher delivers Mimi to the nurse's office's backdoor. Sheena happened to know about it because the teacher knew that Sheena knew about Mimi's immortality.

Also yeah healing magic is like that, Sheena grew back an arm just by kissing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The plot ain't perfect alright, but I'm not so critical of such things, otherwise I wouldn't like a lot of things that I like.

To me what makes this oneshot so special is it's main philosophical question; Since "real" love suffers from things such as adultery and divorce, is a robot's unending & unconditional love truer than "real" love? This artificial love that is simply a program is also the title of this oneshot. So I'm gonna say that the ending isn't a bad ending that came outta nowhere, it fits the story. It is still a surprise.

Very funny

"Should not be a problem" is a matter of your opinion here. If it's a problem or not for you, me, or other people, is a matter of what each person can tolerate / handle. I personally appreciate varied kinds of warnings to know the severity of content, I don't mind getting a bit spoiled because I think it's helpful. I could go into how different subjects impact me personally, but I don't want to. So I say uncomfortable as a broad term to generally cover bases.

Most people mind getting spoiled. If knowing whether a character actually commits suicide or not is important to someone, that person can just check out the comments.

I don't get it. What's with the shorts?

Got her own knock-off Mimi roommate and all

"scouted/kidnapped to the school for her magical aptitude"

Nah she's so sickly and can't fight and her grades suck too ToT

got caught by the ops

Wow what a gem. What a gem of a kirara manga this is. These kind of manga are usually so melodramatic but in this manga it feels less so, it feels so real and sincere. Also feels less hectic and busy. This is going very very high in my favorites.

I've experienced something comparable to repeating a grade. The synopsis caught my eye, I had to read this manga. First few chapters were so relatable. And then the manga gets deeper into Koto's condition, the relatability jumped 2000%. This is the exact thing I went through, and for a lot of other people too. The long-lasting depression that takes away your ability to do anything. It really changes you, literally changes your brain. Everyday you think about bettering yourself, but everyday you just can't do anything, and everyday you beat yourself up for it. People that care will breathe down your neck to make sure you do something, and you might get some things done. But you don't want that forever, you want to be able to do things on your own. But when you're alone you're back to being "useless", and then you beat up yourself for that and it just repeats. The road to recovery is a long one.

If I had read this manga when I was at my lowest, it would have been the thing that changed my life. It would have been the sign that I was going through something serious. I thought I was just being lazy and useless. I think this is the case for some people too. Really thankful for the translations. Looking forward to the next chapters.

^^She might just be a scaredy-cat. A few of the episodes were already shown in Japanese theaters. The artist might know something we don't know.

This manga is such a vibe. I hope I can read U-temo's new manga.

genuinely don't know whether that girl is also an alien, a robot, or just mega neurodivergent yet. Also did the Humans destroy Emojan or did it destroy itself? And what is SNS, is that just japanese twitter or something?

Emojan destroyed itself. SNS is the abbreviation for social networking service. The japanese like to use the term SNS instead of social media.

hehe this is awesome

This is great. It's so angsty, it's so bittersweet. I like the final page, perfect way to end it.
I thought I was a BoKita believer.
