Considering it was in the kitchen, I was sure she was about to say "I saw a cockroach".

Heard about this from the Girls' Frontline collab, never actually played the collab myself, but decided to give it a read anyway since oftentimes these older series can be quite the gem. Made it to ch17 and...

To say it's a "slow burn" is an understatement. It's more akin to simmering on low flame a pot of rocks as story is quite aimless. With how they show Giuseppe and Henrietta at the start you'd think these two would be the main duo with the story focusing on Giuseppe's whole "trying to atone" by becoming Henrietta's handler. Nope. My man barely fucking shows up like at all and when he does it's some inconsequential scene like coming back from a trip/a mission or to give Henrietta a gift.

The manga also switches constantly between each of the pair instead of just dedicating like 5 chapters or so per pair to really flesh out their relationship and dynamic, and because of this none of the story beat feels like it has any resolution except for Claes with her first handler. Giuseppe is the worst offender of this. Beside his sparse screen time, whenever he appears the manga really tries to nail it to you that "he's trying to do good, look at how much he's taking care of Henrietta" but somewhere along the way it forgot he's also supposed to be an agent of a secret government agency. As a result he ends up as this wishy-washy character that doesn't really fit into his surroundings of supposed highly trained professionals. Literally, the slightest inconvenience happens to Henrietta and he's willing to just throw away everything, the mission included, just to dote on her.

All in all, read this if you either 1. Have played the Girls Frontline collab and wanted more of it or 2. You just want a time waster in-between update of your current series, because I honestly could not get invested into anything this manga is trying to sell.

If anything it's the other girl who should feel bad. Suddenly appearing out of nowhere and be all bossy like everyone owes her money or some shit.

I really don't like this trope of introducing new characters by having them be extremely hostile against the protagonist. I get it, they may have their own reason or a sob story to justify their action and attitude, yet such details are never revealed to us until much much later down the line for the shock factor, at which point the hate and dislike we have for these characters have already taken root and is very hard to overturn unless the author can pull a masterclass writing/storytelling.

That is actually the way to wear yukata/kimono. Yukata and kimono are both very form-fitting so you usually don't wear any undergarments since their outline will clearly show.

No, the face matches their respective ingredient, but the text, except for offal, got shifted backward by one person. Muller indeed brought noodle, you can see it on his spoon when he talked about it.

Wait, so his "back up plan" was planting a bunch of explosives on the roof of the church.

Each bundle was placed basically right next to each other and from the panel it completely covered the church, which would've taken considerable amount of time and explosives.

And nobody fucking noticed.

I mean, I usually don't like the "angry mob blaming the nearest organization for their slightest inconvenience" trope but I think their competence being called into question is justified this time.

Well, these types of story usually need a connection that links the protagonist to its cast of characters. If he was just "himself" then, well, the story wouldn't even happen since he'd never been considered for the teacher position at a youkai school and even if he was, he'd be dead in like the first 5 chapters.

Nah, ain't no way that crane machine got that much grip in the claw for him to throw the toy box like that. Those things are a fucking scam, everybody knows.

Though the anime really grinded my Gear. Truly hope it can come back with a Revengeance some day.

Can this star-eyed motherfucker please leave the stage? You have never been relevant to the damn story and never will, so it's pretty late to start being a fucking annoyance now. Like I swear on me mum if he arrives at the last moment and Yellow pulls some bs like body possession or consciousness transfer I'm gonna flip my shit.

People will complain about just literally everything. When Kaiju 8 was still running you will see at least 5 of these comments begging crying for the next chapter every week even though the chapter was just updated like 3 minutes ago. While I will admit that series was really dragging its sorry ass toward the end with all the cliffhangers and cringy "aura farming" as the kids call it, but serious talk some of those fucks have less patience than a 5yo toddler.

Because all they care about is the instant shock factor, the payoff rather than the build up or the journey there, then when author actually shows the payoff they will get distracted for like a chapter or two before going "okay what's next?" before moving on, demanding the next big climax. Rinse and repeat.

Or he can buy the biggest gyoza wrapper and wrap himself in it.

I think that was him being half theatrical, half honest about what he really wants from this whole plan. Kfufu mocked him for keeping secrets, and at this point with more than half of their rank gone there's little reason to keep up the facade of "wanting a peaceful world" so he just spill the bean that he actually wants the grown-ups to suffer.

That's just how Kfufu usually is. Her mood and demeanor changes depending on the outfit she's wearing, and this chapter happens to be a gyaru hence the speech pattern.
