I'm confused. Did all those sliced columns crush the terrorist soldiers? The MC examined the rubble but didn't mention seeing people, and I don't see any either.

On page 36 it kinda looks like it all landed right where they were standing, but I see the guy in the white coat standing there unhurt, and he's not shown for the rest of the chapter.

He didn't run away or say anything, but when the other group showed up ready to fight, there was no fighting. That character design is a little too good to kill off this early imo.

That's a pretty well done nerd villain vibe, and the MC's a colossal nerd too and they were co-workers. If I was the author he'd be a long-term antagonist.

I know she's just a little girl, but if she didn't have a problem with killing that many people then why spare the leader? Wouldn't the other way around make more sense?

Don't get me wrong, mercenary work is some pretty scummy shit, but we all gotta play the hand we're dealt. If fighting is all someone's good at, I get it.

But the leader's the only one who even knows what the plan is. Everyone else was just told to capture her. I'd understand if he got away because she tried to take him alive to get information, but to kill the mercs and just let him go? What heck?

Really??? Omg, that's like the most unfortunate mistranslation ever in the history of ever. Ever.

Woah, how the Kentucky Fried fuck did you do that??? 😳

Your incantation wasn't even in Latin or Greek or anything. Just "Begone" and they're gone??? 🤯

What did you do to them? Does that just kill their comment, or their account too?

I hope it doesn't kill the person. Idk who they were or what they said but judging by your reaction it was pretty bad, and I've seen A LOT of horror movies.

Sometimes evil don't stay dead... 😨

Sigh... I wish I could disagree...

These stories are a lot of fun, but they teach some very counterproductive lessons to young readers. It would be refreshing to see one this good and long-running to have the moral of the story be this 👇

"Quit expecting things to just fall into place naturally. Ditch all that fairy tale bedtime story BS like 'What is meant to will always find a way'. You have to actively go after what you want in life. You don't have as much time as you think."

Son-of-a-biscuit! How you gonna give a smut writer that exciting of an idea for a scenario and then poke a giant plot hole in it within the same chapter??? 😟

How in the fucking goddamn shitting h*ck the idea of sex in a karaoke booth has never crossed my mind before now is anyone's guess, half the shit I've come up with, and being a weeb too 🙄

Whatevs, I'm still gonna do it. Smut ain't known for its plausibility anyway 🤙

Arigato Kuzuhana author 🙏

God it's good to see such a healthy MC.

I know a lot of people find it off-putting when they don't have more flaws, and I respect that POV. It can make the reader feel inadequate, which can lead to them acting out, but that's on them. The proper way to respond to feelings of inadequacy is to resolve to improve.

I think what's more harmful is rude/mean/scummy MCs who are still regarded as desirable by the other characters. For example, it's very harmful to teach young male readers that being sexist won't prevent them from getting girlfriends. Of fuckin' course it will.

Love and hate disrespect do not mix. You're not gonna charm someone into loving you when you dislike them on principle. You're not gonna make someone feel like they're the most important person in the world to you when the truth is that in your mind they're basically your servant. Never gonna happen.

"You've become a slave to a dirty human!"

"Umm, I will have you know his balls smell like a flower. Also stop being racist. Okay maybe I should've said that second thing first."

Hehe, he's calling the kid "It" 😆

"I still can't believe this. That a kid still exists in this world. And that my father's the one who created it. I have to protect it. The last child in the world."

C'mon dude. Real kids are kinda annoying but anime/manga kids are usually more likeable.

Hehe, I've found new stuffs to read through that method too. The Latest Comments feature is heckin' poggers 🤌

Omfg you jackass author 🤬

How you gonna have your MC karate chop a 7 year old girl??? And in chapter 3 before you've even established him as good??? C'monnn 🥺

Didn't seem to be very hard but that was the top of her head 😭

He barely missed 5 pressure points. Only by a few centimeters 🥺😭

I think she was also about to hug him, she's an orphan, the last kid on earth! 🤧

And freakin' look at her, her face is like 30% eyes! She's cuter than a pile of kittens napping in a ramen noodle bowl! 😡😡😡😡

The "kick the dog" trope is for establishing villains. Ffs I thought for a second he knocked her on her ass.

Now I don't think she fell, I think she's just squatting from the surprise, but still she looks scared 😭

Which one is Iruma? Is that maybe someone from another story? I can't remember any characters 3 years younger.

I think Reona and Nekomiya's brother (Shoto? Shouta?) are 2 years younger, and the only ones younger than that are the liddle cubs, but they super smol

Pfft. "Muon spin". "Google it" it says 🙄

In this world where I can't go a week without seeing someone say "aint readin allat" when they're looking at two paragraphs on the most mundane topic you could imagine? Mm-m.

If my own mother told me she read the Wikipedia article on "muon spin" and completely understood it, I wouldn't believe her.

She could swear on the razor-sharp wrinkles of Chuck Norris's scrote, idgaf, no tf you do not understand that. Bull-frickity-shrimp-fried shiitake-mushroom shit no tf you do NOT. How can you even say that with a straight face 😖

Ohhh, thank you for illuminating that for me 🤔

I was hoping for a flash forward even if it was just one page. I would've liked to find out if they made any major changes like living situation.

But after reading your comment, I know you didn't explicitly say this, but it seems like leaving their future unrevealed helps emphasize the value of the experiences we were shown.

Kinda like a reminder that planning ahead is smart, but rushing through life is unhealthy. We really gotta cherish the moments that we'll never get back, so the memories will be as vivid as possible 🥲

Indeed 🤔 Very versatile creator. There's definitely no wrong decision imo.

I'm a disgusting degenerate freak but I also have a heart the size of a hentai protagonist cumload, so whether they make more wholesome stuff like this or go back to freaky porn, my blood's gonna be pooling in one place or another. Win/win 🥰

Hehe, this manga was so good, I bet there are people who don't even like porn all that much will still take a look at the doujins.

I know hentai is generally so kinky that you have to specifically SAY so if you only like normal sex (the term is called vanilla) but I've seen some pretty wholesome stuff before.

I haven't looked at Nagatoro doujins yet but I wouldn't be surprised some were like that.

Yeaaahhhh! This manga was so good that a bad ending would've upset me more than usual.

Like when an author that's this competent suddenly pulls a complete stinker of an ending, the first place my mind goes is "Oh shit. Something bad happened to the author. Whose ass am I kicking??"

That's one comforting thing about her. We all know she's still gonna be okay if she doesn't get Saotome. She's the type that anyone who's healthy could love.

A person's gotta have a very negative mindset to find dislike Ushigome-esque personalities.

That pun though 😏 Unintentional, I'm guessing 😄

Did anyone else see Yupiel and Nagatoro completely by coincidence? Most people seem to have one through the other. But I had to be told it was the same author.

For context, if anyone doesn't already know what we're talking about, you might be better off not knowing. It's one of the kinds of kinky that upsets most people. Not r-word, gore, or bodily function stuff. The other kind 🍭

I read Yupiel forever ago and forgot all about it (no disrespect) but was very late to the party on Nagatoro, and when I started I was like "Why do I like this cruel mean bitch??? Something about those facial expressions..."

I HATE seeing people sad-cry, like no matter who tf it is or what they've done, I hate it. Even if a character is straight-up evil I'd rather see anything else happen. Chop their frickin' head off if ya want, but no crying 🤬

For that reason, I almost dropped Nagatoro early on. I've since figured out that when it comes to mean characters, what's really relevant is who they target. If it's just anyone then they don't seem so bad, but if it's someone who's super vulnerable like this MC then it icks me.

Thankfully Nagatoro eased up pretty quickly, so I think I would've been patient enough either way. But still it's super funny to consider the possibility that I subconsciously gave an (at that point, and subejctively) unlikable character a pass because she was triggering THAT memory 🤣

Please don't change pre-established facts like the characters' names... I know it's your scanlation but it's the author's story. You're altering someone else's stuff. Content should be presented the way the creator intended.

I will factor in the possibility that the names used before were inaccurate and that these ones are true to the original. In that case, I mean this toward the first one.

I've even seen scanlators change mannerisms and speech patterns, like just because the one scanlation team stopped after 200 chapters, now suddenlya character that's been there the entire time is suddenly totally different.

A Japanese ninja suddenly started using Elizabethan English like they do in Shakespeare plays, and a Chinese girl who used to have cute broken English started talking like a Neanderthal cave person 😔

Saw someone else make a character stop doing that cute third person speech thing, and someone else who used to make puns just completely stop and suddenly sounded like a drunk Scot, including adding extra letters to make the words sound slurred. Like hello, translator??? You are misspelling the words on purpose 😖

Hahaha!!! I'm kinda surprised you're getting downvoted. That picture is hilarious. I don't care for unprovoked trolling one tiny little bit, it's toxic. But I'm also the kind of person who is fair to a fault. If someone tricks me, I gotta say touché 🤷

It's clever when something is a bit deceptive but comes with the fact that the people who disapprove can't FAIRLY deny that it was their own mind that went there.

Having said that, I know people do it because they're stressed. I hope you got it out of your system, and that you don't do stuff like this all the time.

Some people are sensitive. And no, that's not your problem, but it's usually not their fault. Usually they were mistreated, and it may still be happening, so it's nice for them to get a break. Take it easy m8 🤙
