Damn it you're out of line. But you're right!

You're not wrong. But we just had a needlessly long side arc.

Thanks for the heads up! Ready for another ten chapters of random side content with stuco prez and her partner?

Yikes. My bad for replying.

Wow. This was an extremely underwhelming batch.

I swear they have the greatest derp faces...

Mfw it's the UK edition. For context, the series' US edition sold out in literally under 30 seconds, and is somewhere between crazy expensive and impossible to acquire now.

Progress? In my manga?! I don't think so...!

Oh I fully agree.

There are very few shows that belong in the same universe as Cowboy Bebop, though.

Disgusting...

Yeah this show is brutal. I think I picked it up on a whim just to have another show to watch, and somehow I'm still regretting that decision.

Agreed entirely. No notes.

I got to like the volume before the most recent one and dropped because it felt like there was zero progress on any front, anywhere.

Yeah simulcasting in the West is a clusterfuck

I'll fully endorse Dagashi-ya Yahagi. Shame the series seems to have been axed in Japan, though. And I'll say for The Frontier Lord Begins With Zero Subjects (though, I expected at least some romance from this one) that it's decent, but can get boring at times.

Before you declare your top 2, reminder that Lazarus's finished version starts tomorrow (the American "simulcasters" somehow managed to screw it up and take unfinished versions of the episode)

You've nailed it. At worst, it's a mild teasing, unlike Nagatoro, which is closer to straight up bullying.

Insert random screeching about woke DEI whatever-the-fuck-the-bad-word-of-the-day is

[/s to be perfectly clear.]

I agree with your sentiments here in thinking that this might actually have the ingredients to be something well worth watching. I've been meaning to start the novels, but alas I'm constantly sidetracked to other series...
