It's quite a... Deadly Alliance

A sticky, sticky pattern.

Wouldn't you know Bruce...Wayne was it?

It's always a bummer when you get a concept that could be fun but the execution is just lackluster. Like that other series where they put a wizard in a martial arts world and then he proceeded to do jack s*** for like 80% of the story.

Having come to the series post meme this first chapter is not gripping me. It's not bad by any means. Arts decent. solid setup but it just seems basic to me. Maybe it's all the katanas, maybe it's the strong traditional Japanese aesthetic mixing with all the boring ass business suits, maybe it's the edgy black trench coat, maybe it's the humor of the series being way too low-key and casual, but something about this series feels like if it started off more grounded and then transitioned to the magic s*** or start off with more fun looking magic s*** I'd be more game because honestly " my katana's magic cuz it lets me make BIG slashes" is it particularly interesting considering that's basically what most katana users in most anime can just do anyways. It might get better with time and I'll give it the usual five chapter minimum but if I'm not hooked by then I'm going to have to toss this freely into the Mid category. (No one cares but me because I'M categorizing them)

I need Japan to realize that something being "technically not incest" still makes it an INCREDIBLY weird romance setup, especially when none of these series are ever actually interested in talking about the actual weird parts of their setup being the setup it is. (Other than the pre-established relationship being a pretense to stretch out the plot and have no plot progression by putting them in the very rare but incredibly creepy "siblings-zone") (it's creepy because you're not supposed to leave that zone it's not like the friend zone if you're in that zone you're supposed to stay there)

There's no comments you can make upon A perfection.

With that previous Arc and the eating people thing bringing up one issue regarding non-human races with different values, this one brings up another kaede is theoretically as intelligent as any given human but is hierarchy of needs is structured more like that of a child's, and his understanding of cause and effect as well as the personhood of others is very simple to say the least, like in his mind it's still eat or be eaten like he was living in the woods. He doesn't understand that when the world around him gets more complex than that he has to be as complex or be left behind or Damned.

They strike fear into Al Capone and the joker, who am I not to fear them.

This certainly took a turn from the original version

I uh.... I think maybe you posted the wrong GIF... I hope to god you posted the wrong GIF, why is it so long? why am I watched most of it? Why does it feel like somebody's Tumblr page distilled into a single moving image?

His parents aren't honest with each other because they don't know that they are the respective races and trying to be covert, the unique mixed blood he has is that he's a mix of a shapeshifter and an immortal which usually doesn't happen, other than that I think the only noticeable things were that his dad was either a pureblood or equivalent in skill to a pureblooded immortal expert operative and his mom was like a well-trained special ops shapeshifter, it would be the equivalent of a 9-tailed Fox disguised as a human mating with an elder vampire disguised as a human both never revealing their true forms out of fear of rejection or hatred or complication unaware that they are both non-human the result either way is a super-magical kid

next thing you know he'll have to turn his frying pan into a drying pan.

Hold up hold up hold up my man was raping those piles of flesh after turning them into handicrafts, is that what the f*** she just said? At first I thought it was metaphorical rape but then she said she was going to cut off his dick so I guess he was literally f****** those handicraft people dick out balls deep Jesus f****** Christ.

Yeah that name is a specific flavor of klusterfuck to me because it's almost heavenly demonic cult and it's almost Northern heavenly sect and it's also almost just heavenly cult, it's a crossroads of several flavor of cult and north that makes me think I read it wrong every time I read it.

They must be skim readers, people that just slide through half the words in the chapter and then wonder what the f*** is going on.

Yeah...he kind of just said that?

Persistence hunting for the win

I mean if it works it works

Why is it Jeju Island in Korean stories is like New York in disaster movies: it always shows up no matter what, it's always where the most f***** up shit is about to go down. And weirdly enough at least half the time it is specifically full of ants or bees or things that look like bees but we're calling them ants.(That last one doesn't really apply to New York)(unless you replace ants with rats)
