[A Huge Battleship]

Minamoto 40

List of things that could go wrong:

-Phone call from her father.
-MC says "Who's your daddy?"
-One of them knocks the handbrake causing the car to roll forwards through the obviously rusty gate and into the water.
-etc.

My top 3.

Waifu lists are so silly. Here's mine:

Anna from Anne Freaks

Fran from Franken Fran

Aikawa from Prunus Girl (no shut up I don't care)

Kurumi hasn't shown up in Date A Live yet so she doesn't count.

Also your post made me read Ludwig Revolution. And it was exactly the kind of thing that's relevant to my interests (macabre, quasi-episodic structure, lots of karmic retribution). Second best shoujo I've read, so thanks.

Stop teasing us god damn it.

Screaming Lessons.

I figured you would say this. I'm already planning on reading it very soonish.

Ok, so what's the third best shoujo you ever read?

 

[Neoriceisgood]

Waifu lists, huh?










I don't think I have a waifu.

What about a husbando then.

I like those tags, will read

Only Mamori Anezaki is waifu material.

The female cast is amazing. They are evil, troubled, twisted, powerful, and/or voluptuous. It doesn't get better then that. And none of them are as fucked up as Ludwig either. Talk about a collector.

Waifu lists, huh?










I don't think I have a waifu.

It's basically posting your favorite female characters. My three hit the personalities I like best.

Though Dorothea isn't lacking any "assets".

Daaaaammmmmn @ this pic. Women really do draw the best women.

What about a husbando then.

So dreamy.

 

[Defuser]

So dreamy.

I want more blacksmith anime. Dammit manglobe, why do you have to create a original ending it?

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Sasuke, of course

Ichigo

Ace

Gray Fullbuster as well, and Zoro.

That half rape scene would have made it tough though.

 

[Bisnic]

Oh DTL has a new sex scene between Naruto and Sasuke as an avatar AND he posted those pics too?

 

[Neoriceisgood]

Good choices, DTL.

 

[Stat Flow]

Sasuke, of course

Ichigo

Ace

Gray Fullbuster as well, and Zoro.

You all have shitty taste in husbando as well. A bunch of vessels for shitty fan-art.

I prefer my husbando to be more the cool, calculative type:

River's Edge vol 1 End

Haruna Wakakusa and Yamada become friends after she saves him several times from her boyfriend's constant bullying. Through him she gets to know Kozue Yoshikawa, a fellow student who also models professionally. The three emotionally stunted teens' lives briefly yet intensely intertwine for one semester before splintering from the aftereffects of one disastrous night. For both Wakakusa and Yamada, their emotional awakening fosters an unlikely friendship between the two battered souls.

Oh man, I really thought this was some light read with maybe some dark themes covered. Instead it went all grim, sad and depressing on me, especially near the end. One thing that surprised me is that

Spoiler

Rumi didn't die at the end. I guess even the author didn't have the guts to kill a pregnant woman.

I'm still bothered by the art. It's just bunch of sketches and scribbles, I wish a more competent artists drew this manga. I had such a hard time differentiating between most of the characters and it was even more confusing when characters had the same hair colour/style.

Really a good read if you like your slice of life manga to be realistic, dark, and angsty.

 

[Kurita]

Husbando ?

Waifu ?

 

[El Sloth]

What's the manga equivalent of being asexual?

 

[craker]

I could swear it was a different timeline, when Pucci's stand had been defeated. Although stands and dio still exist.

And there's a thing that's bothering me in SBR

Spoiler

Norisuke and Josuke have the same surname, and there's a Norisuke in JoJolion too. But SBR is at least 200 years before JoJolion.

The time difference is actually less.

Spoiler

Just 120 years between part 7 and 8. You can see the connection between the two parts in chapter 11 of Jojolion. There's a family tree showing it.

Soul Cartel 3

So long since the last update but I still remember. Mephistoles motive really wants me to want Faust to hurry and be shown, but what if the present Faust is main character?

Shoujoheads, what's your opinion on the following manga

A Devil and Her Love Song
Black Bird
Dengeki Daisy
Kamisama Kiss
Oresama Teacher

 

[upandaway]

Shoujoheads, what's your opinion on the following manga

Dengeki Daisy
Oresama Teacher

I remember following those for a while, but I guess somehow somewhere they dropped off. They were okay, pretty shoujo-ish. I liked 'em.

 

[gunbo13]

Also:

1st rule of harem loser. Reject all advances from attractive females at all costs. Just look how stupid they all look.

Shoujoheads, what's your opinion on the following manga

Dengeki Daisy
Oresama Teacher

I can only comment on those two. DD is great but very shounen. They piddle paddle around the romance quite a bit and it is more of a drama. Oresama Teacher is absolutely hilarious only brought down for the sketchy translation. It is also very shounen since it is a delinquent story. The humor and characters is enough to make it likely the best running shoujo. Though I am very partial to Snow White with the Red Hair, which is also very shounen (which I also remember you disliking).

All three are great.

 

[Lain]

Shoujoheads, what's your opinion on the following manga

A Devil and Her Love Song - Good art, protagonist is cool, has some cliché and a dramatic backstory but overall nice.
Black Bird - Drama, silly premise, embarrassingly stupid moments but I like reading it (let's call it a guilty pleasure?), and the art sometimes is really cute.
Dengeki Daisy - Funny all the way through despite some drama, wastes some time here and there but I have a soft spot for it.
Kamisama Kiss - Haven't read this.
Oresama Teacher - Haven't read this, but I keep planning to.

Denpa Kyoushi 31

That sort of play would annoy me IRL, but all I can say right now is Kagami you magnificent bastard.

Hoshikawa Ginza District 4 1-18

If the metro police weren't watching me before, they are now.

Yuri romance between a teacher (not pictured) and a schoolgirl, who live together for various reasons. Art was pretty bad and I can't really recommend it.

 

[Kurita]

Shounen protagonist.

Pretty sure Ryo Saeba wants to bang every chick on the planet.

Ok, I guess Dengeki Daisy and Oresama Teacher will be higher on the to read list. For Oresama teacher, if it's kinda like Yankee to Megane then I will be fine with it. Also gunbo, I'm planning on giving Snow White another chance. After reading Seishun Kouryakuhon by the same author I started to like the art style much more.

.

Ok, Black Bird is out and will read Devil and Her Love Song. Kinda surprised neither you or gunbo have read Kamisama Kiss. I thought you guys were the shoujo masters.

Thanks guys. I will continue my shoujo/josei marathon journey now.

It's very different.

Kinda surprised neither you or gunbo have read Kamisama Kiss. I thought you guys were the shoujo masters.

Look at how stupid the system for the translations is. Summaries, huge skips, it's a mess. I'll wait for the anime.

That guy only has eyes for BMWs though. He picked cars over his ex...

He's got his priorities straight.

He also knows gifts for women.

Not a complaint simply an observation gun-chan

Actually I forgot to post the best husbando:

Those eyes, so dreamy~

Baseball freak? My choice from reborn would be

And smokin bomb gokudera in second.

Koisome Momiji 9-10
So Sana's boobs are just as big as Nana's? Talk about unfair competition.

Haikyu!! 17
Great chapter. Karasuno's ace looks cool, he seems to know Hinata and Kageyama so I guess he'll come back at some point.
So the store manager was a former Karasuno's player too. Interesting. And he could be Karasuno's new coach...

Really liking this manga so far.

Sket Dance 202

Nice, I think we are finally going to see some real Bossun action, like it used to be. The only one seeing a person's problem and succeeding at "curing" her.

 

[Rorschach]

I think I'm done with Naruto for a while. Someone let me know when we see Naruto again for more than 2 panels.
