Late (computer's still RIP) but happy birthday Akito!

You have fine taste, but it's important that you appreciate all mono-eye, not just the
What striferser said, he's more in denial state than bullying.
Surprisingly this manga despite being 4-koma have quite depth in its conflict (which become more clear with the latest chapter).

Dr. Hitomi's Infirmary - Impression So Far
I was once if there is any SoL monmusu manga without harem shtick or directionless random worldbuilding stuff, this particular manga really fill my craving. It's not technically monmusu per se, but the element of it are major part of the manga, and actually play important role so far to theme that the mangaka try to convey.
Speaking of theme, the writer handled it really well. Many much of the student or the teacher monster feature utilized to get the message across in creatively unique way. We know that those problem they face are kinda unique to their own monstrous trait, but we still can understand that and relate to them. Despite many theme of the manga is about lesson of overcoming puberty, change in your life, or even life in general, the message never felt heavy handed to me.
The art is also nice and kinda have unique feel to that. It's matched with the general tone of the manga which make the read is even more enjoyable to me. I must said the style is similar to Dowman Sayman, a very mild and normal one at that.
One pet peeve of mine that I found it kinda grating is the constant yuri tease. But honestly besides the hair-teacher, Hikage and that oni Vice President, in some way or another, I can't really distinguish between girl skinship or straight up yuri.
Before I close my impression, one thing that I particularly love with Dr. Hitomi's Infirmary is how there is a small ongoing plot despite being a SoL. I really like it when a SoL do that, especially when done right and in light-hearted manner.

Yes it was always shocking seeing how lewd some folks twitters be.

Haha, this could apply in a couple of situations here.
Shengar, I'm looking at you.
It's just so fresh~
Yeah, it's a great SoL, with outstanding art.
Thx guys and gals. I'm not that big on frog girl so here's me cosplaying as me.
So scary~

The Shokugeki no Soma spoilers are VERY interesting. Cannot wait.
Someone get Haly please.
Btw, why not give Endo Hiroki Tanpenshuu a shot too?

Why does this looks like it's from Akazukin Cha Cha?
It looks like you and I share the same expression all the time.
Happy birthday. You're getting old. Get some laugh lines while you still can.
Looks like Akito from Kodomo no Omocha

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Seems to also kills one of the fan theories.
(That Joichiro was actually Erina's dad and that Erina/Soma were related, although I guess the mom could still be the same, although that would be weird)

yas...perfect
So many stuff I should probably read up.
Kodomo no Omocha is pretty good, with some nice depth and darkness behind the smiles and cute kids.

Good story so far. A high school girl who works part time in a family restaurant and has a crush on her middle aged manager. Since she has a expressionless face no one can tell how she feels and her manager thinks she thinks he's pathetic since he's old and in a dead end job.
I like that it doesn't follow a normal story arc and that it doesn't try to hard to be different either. The art style is distinct and appeasing as well. Hope the series continues and continues to see regular updates as well.

The story doesn't drag, things happened in a pretty quick pace.
I would like to see the Manager rejecting her unless/until she puts in serious effort in courting him.

That mysterious Ghoul is totally gonna job to Saiko's humongous kagune. Gonna be totally awesome.

Festival looked great (continuing with the amazing costumes from before), and that Ryuryu kick during the play was particularly well placed. The knight dealt with it so well too, admirable guy.
The festival made it clear just how happy I am that this manga is in color. It was really really nice.

EDIT: Never mind. But yes, Hitomi's Infirmary is amazing. Are you reading the scanlations? The series is available in English officially, so you should pick it up if you haven't.
Sadfuly I'm not living in the US and importing will be very prohibitive. I can only hop it'll have an anime, become more popular so it can licensed in my country.

lol the goals of this series are so down low, I kind of like it.

Ah, ok.
Did you read chapter 12 yet? It's one of my favorite chapters, so I'm curious to hear your opinions of it.
For what it's worth it's one of only 3 manga that ever got a 10/10 from me.
Interesting. What are the other two?

I can't see that happening because why would Ishida just suddenly draw a menacing Ghoul at the end just for him to job to Saiko. Im also considering the fact that Saiko seems to have a strong Kagune but it seems to take a lot of energy and time to use it. From the auction arc the only reason she got Nutcracker was because she was already immobilized by Shirazu. So what I can see happening is that she'll probably get a attack in but that won't be enough to take down the Ghoul because we have to consider her low stamina and terrible speed. Plus the Ghoul confronting her seems pretty fast, insane, and strong. I mean the guy has God written all over his tie.
The next chapter is called Hello Despair so I can't see the Ghoul jobbing otherwise it would be disappointing.
FMA and Touch.
That's surprisingly... mundane, lol. Gonna read Kodomo no Omocha whenever I feel like chipping away at my backlog.
God, I wish there were a way to get him on a Spidey book. Even if it was only a mini-series.

Weird. Why was there no updates from WSM this week? They were off last week...
You're theory is probably more accurate but I could see the series moving in the direction where their misunderstandings continue for some hilarity, but in the end no romance grows between them.
Instead they both grow as they get to know each other and the girl ends up moving forward in her life without her ever expressing her feelings for him. The series ends with a open ending without a resolution between their feelings (due to how society would view their relationship if they were to enter one).

World Trigger dub is great! So glad Toei did it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEL4yNYGEjw
The spoilers are interesting but the colour page is what's exciting me.

Tokyo Ghoul:re 40
Good points.. except for the tie, I don't trust what people's clothes say, ha!
Still, I find Mutsuki's situation more worrying than Saiko's. It was already a pleasant surprise to see that Mutsuki has become such a decent fighter, so I don't expect him to surprise us again in this battle. I don't think he has a trump card, like Saiko's kagune might be. And while we don't know anything about the mysterious Ghoul (only that he looks dangerous), we can be certain that Tatara's direct subordinate will be badass (and Torso is still there...)
But yeah, I hope the mysterious Ghoul will put up a good show (I just think Saiko will escape after temporarily disabling him with a short but powerful outburst of her kagune).
Regarding Urie, I bet he's going to get his ass kicked by whoever is assigned to Kanae's protection. Shirazu better get his act together!
