I found some great manga!

From the creator of Ayakashiko about 2 "contract" sisters, the yuri is undeniable https://mangadex.org/title/e3fa25bc-23eb-46c3-af17-36ec9200456e/keiyaku-shimai it might end up in dynasty even if I don't share it XP

This second one is RAW but wooow what a nice (a bit generic?) start, basically Girl meets Girl and then Super power happens !!! a bit ecchi https://4uview.com/1930/ looks fantastic with drama and fantasy but not isekai

Oh, looking good! Thanks for the rec!
And indeed there's no denying the genre. The Indonesian translator is Luminous TL, who are a little particular about the manga they pick. In fact, their motto is: "Yuri shall bless the world!"

And indeed there's no denying the genre.

I'd say. Sato-san, when she first met Aoyama, was sunken in dark depression because, I quote, "her favorite yuri manga had just been axed."

Then she saw Aoyama, it was love at first sight and the depression went flying out of the window.

Anyone else amused by how the Dynasty readership is mostly "yeah we gay, keep scrolling" (of all genders) and then there's the occasional out of the closet straight guy who gets ignored hard

Edit: About earthquakes, I'm Californian as well AND know a bit about stick framing. Door frames are stable due to usually being in corners on top of having to have extra studs for the frame - meaning you have triple the column support, plus a horizontal brace in the form of the top of it. If the door frame leads to the outside there should be even more additional horizontal studs as exterior walls are required to have them. Plus it's an easy task for rescuers to grab you from your front door if it collapses. Just make sure to avoid things that shatter upon vibrations or that are likely to fall on you.

Edit2: This doesn't apply for super old buildings or concrete buildings as they're not stick framed, but most places that have such construction barely ever get hit by earthquakes. The concrete without sufficient rebar construction was the reason the Southern China earthquake screwed them up.

FWIW I don't think this applies as much to people who are regulars on the forums. I can think of a handful of openly cishet guys that are pretty active in conversations.

It's also worth noting that there's also a fairly significant discrepancy between the demographics of Dynasty's users and forumers. IIRC the last time someone did a poll cishet male respondents made up a bit over half the overall results but less than half of active forum users.

I don't know if that would still be true today, and it was, of course, completely optional to do, but it was announced on the home page so it's probably fairly accurate.

edit: I just heard a story about a statue in Lima with a llama on its head...

It's true.

GIRL NO! don't hold your phone like that! It's bad for your wrist

Okay well, I just finished watching Arcane and...

...was that the ending? It was only 9 episodes right? I'm not missing something? I mean, it's not a cliffhanger, per se, but... I don't know. Kind of an odd way to end it. Is there a season 2 in the works that will somehow pick up from here?

edit: Is the show just backstory leading to the video game's lore or something? Because I don't like league and have absolutely no interest in playing it, much less learning about the lore. I was kind of under the impression that the show was wholly self-contained until now.

Yes s2 confirmed but don't expect a release anytime soon, they're going to prioritize quality

Any idea if it's going to pick up where S1 left off or is it like "well, we advertised those heroes, on to the next few"

Don't worry they will keep going in the same direction, in fact you can hear their voices in the official announcement of the part 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nu9HTOIUxLk (only voices btw, there's no trailer or pictures or anything out there yet so don't trust any clickbait sources).

That's a relief. It felt like there was a lot left unresolved, so I was worried I would need to go learn things about league now ...and as a dota fan, that would be a fate worse than death. :P

The pacing felt too quick at times, but I think that had more to do with how many characters they were jumping between compared to how many episodes they had in which to do everything. I hope they keep it a bit more focused in S2, though I'm not sure how they'd do that without just bumping some characters off.

Overall though? Very good show. The animation and voice acting were superb. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't watched already.

at least we have one true yuri anime this season with "the executioner and her way of life". it's a good time to be alive but I'm ready for all the physical manga releases. (also first post glad to be here)

Hey! welcome, nice profile picture

Hey! welcome, nice profile picture

same to you school zone girls is so good rn can't wait for more chapters. We are finally getting some more text and it feels like such a natural development in their relationship.

I watched Arcane quite recently as well. I agree that some things felt a bit rushed/jumbled and, surprisingly, I didn't care much about Vi and Caitlyn's relationship, but the animation was indeed exceptionally good, both in regards to body movement and facial expressions (especially the latter was way beyond my expectations). The character designs and backgrounds were quite interesting and the direction and shot composition was also notable.

If I have one complaint, it's that the opening should have been longer, cause it was way too cool (both song and visuals). That, and the amount of screentime that annoying Jayce got.

Well this is ... interesting lol
I found a work that's going to be adapted to manga, it's about Maria Antoinette but uuhh... she becomes super fit and starts a revolution with her muscles or something? XDDD it's called POWER ANTOINETTE https://twitter.com/konatsu_GA/status/1320656817639227392

I found some character desing https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/C_Chat/M.1603781408.A.DC8.html
And the entry in MD (at the moment of posting, there's no chapter to read) https://mangadex.org/title/4ca469a9-65f3-462e-9155-f067145cefa8/power-antoinette

Sooo... wow lo/

^"Let them lift cake" o3o

yeah pretty much! and I didn't want to go as far as to suggest yuri or subtext but... there are other 3 girls, just saying.

That was great. Also lets me add to my list of historical figures that’ve been turned into femboys in manga. It’s longer than you’d think.

This is one of the grossest manga I've ever seen

add to list

Bonne journée internationale des travailleurs à tous! ♡

Could this be considered tomboy or cross-dressing? https://mangadex.org/title/9d3d3403-1a87-4737-9803-bc3d99db1424/the-guy-she-was-interested-in-wasn-t-a-guy-at-all

Because for the first time, I don't get that vibe, it might be the style of drawing but even in school or the store, I think she looks really cool and beautiful, not manly and I dig this a lot, it's probably really hard to achieve.
