Nothing but prick teasing.

I'm surprised he feels like he can milk another 50 chapters out of it considering where it is rn

FFS.

Explains why he went missing for a while. Some of these mangaka spend so much time sexualising children in their manga it's not really surprising anymore. No doubt just a slap on the wrist like in other similar cases.

I am now expecting it to be only a matter of time before Food Wars and Kakegurui creators are found out.

No idea how good the manga are, but this sounds like a really cool concept:

Kaguya-sama giving the ultimate Christmas present in the form of a massive emotional punch to the gut.

One Piece anime: I can't believe the anime settled on calling her Mam How do you not translate it to Big Mom?!

[Saint of Killers]

I laughed so hard my sides hurt.

Is it meant to be like a mix of ma'am and mom?

I think it's supposed to be that yeah.

I like it.

Just finished Promised Neverland season 1. It was pretty great, but I've heard season 2 is complete pants.

Anyone know if it's worth watching?

If you don't mind reading manga you will be much better off with that rather than sitting through the 11 butchered episodes of season 2. They quite literally cut the best arc post-escape, removed great characters and the motivations they provided and rushed towards a completely unsatisfying ending. The manga had some issues towards the end of its run but it is leagues ahead of what the anime ended up being and the low quality adaptation doesn't make much sense considering how popular the series was at the time.

[Choclet-Milk]

Manga it is, then. Cheers.

*can't breathe*

One Piece anime ep 588: Kin'emon being reunited with his legs. Just his legs, mind. Luffy distraught at no longer being a centaur.

EDIT: Smoker in Tashigi's body. That would make for one seriously badass statue.

Can't say I'm as hyped for the upcoming Attack on Titan season as I was for the last one. Eren's character got completely and utterly butchered after the timeskip and it sucked away a lot of my hype.

[Saint of Killers]

Some of my favourite moments from the manga in episode 594 Namely the look on Traffy's face when he realises what sort of alliance he's found himself in and Chopper being strapped to the top of his hat.

Finally rediscovered and finished Shigurui after losing my progress on MangaDex when it was taken offline. Makes me want to track down a copy of Suruga-jō Gozen Jiai by Norio Nanjō that the series was based on.

Solid read if anyone wants a quick ~80 chapter series about Samurai and revenge.

Will check it out. Cheers for the rec. (I need something new after greedily eating up all the translated chapters of The Fable.)

The animation quality in the last episode of Kimetsu no Yaiba was amazing but some of the impact shots and general fluidity in today's episode was on a whole other level. God damn!

Step on me, Daki!
