So Onodera promised to marry Raku, they grew up together and went to school together after that and somehow grew farther apart despite liking each other, to the point of forgetting it.

Conclusion, Onodera didn't marry Raku, making Marika the true promise girl.

Remember kids, the way of getting a partner is through reverse psychology.

Yuri Kuma Arashi ch19

Yep, this couldn't have ended well.

Nozomi x Kimio ch26

So shameless! In public too!

Genshiken Nidaime ch123

Back to the old routine we go.
 
I'm like 75% sure we are getting a bullshit arc where she goes Sasuke and turns "evil," probably for an extended period of time. This probably is the part where they try to make you like Erina before it happens because why the fuck would you care otherwise?

It would be nice if I could trust the mangaka not to make her need to get rescued (particularly given she's a God Tier chef) but I'm expecting it.

I really hope not. I'd have to question what the author thinks of Erina's thinking ability to just leave and join Azami after spending 20+ chapters at the dorm becoming a more normal person.
You're probably right though.

As someone that stopped reading the series after Soma lost the three way final, this sounds very alien to me.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I mean, I don't know. This is very much in the Fairy Tail mold of "nobody is really evil," especially if they are cool and/or hot.

If Erina goes back to Azami's clutches, its either as a double-agent or damsel in distress, I imagine. At least in the short term we can hope she stops being Sadface Erina.

lmao @ people on reddit wanting a more concrete epilogue to Spirit Circle. The ending was as concrete as it gets without showing them having sex.

The last page should be entitled "Cool Chefs Don't Look at Foodgasms."

Ore ga Ojou-sama Gakkou ni "Shomin Sample" Toshite Rachirareta Ken ch52

Nothing like Pokemon to get things going.

Still, ultimately it's all his dumbass self's fault.

Hyper Girls Battle Orgia ch3

Well, that's pretty unfortunate.

Yuzumori-san ch1 by Ejima Eri

Slice of life with very short chapters, but the yuri undertones are through the roof. The art is still pretty, but it doesn't feel as refined as Hyper Girls Battle Orgia's though.

Kekkon Yubiwa Monogatari ch18

So many personal interests at conflict here.

Spirit Circle 1-46

Better than Youko. Might be better than biscuit hammer from a worldview but had less of the shounen action and the keikaku planning.
I just read Youko over the weekend and I have to agree. Youko has some nice world building and Senya is adorable, but it wasn't that compelling to me. Maybe because I didn't give a shit about Jinka, honestly. It did have its moments though, like Shakugan's sacrifice and basically everything about Shinsuke's character. Fuck all that lifespan bullshit though. Poor Tsukiko. ;-;

I'd say Spirit Circle > Lucifer > Youko is my ranking.

Yeah I think the ending gave enough closure, especially with this extra with Kouko. I still want to see East and Rune as babies tho.

Alibaba should get out of the saving the world business and further his career as a late night marketer.

Cut to Erina.

Erina: No. It wasn't.
She would probably list out all the ways it was inadequate.

I'm actually wondering if Jouichiro is actually as much of a good guy as imagined. Azami seems to be basing his "revolution" on something to do with Joichirou and Joichirou's opinion of the school didn't seem that high.
 
images of erina saying soma isn't good at dicking and how much better his dad would be flashing in my head

"Your father taught me that dicking could be fun, creative and delicious. He brought me out of a sea of bad dicks and showed me what real dicking was like. I never knew dicking could be this wonderful"

Guys lets not get too lewd here.

BTW I'm in line at an In N Out. I expect my clothes to explode.
 
It probably already exists.

i mean, let's be honest.

tosh has a bit of same-face going on among all his works (understandable), so it wouldn't be too hard to search out his previous H works and find something along those lines.

i looked at one of his previous books and 3/4 of the shokugeki no soma cast was practically there due to this issue.
 
Sasuke is curry guy. Don't tell me you guys haven't seen the signs.

yup stated it waaay back

even manga capped some panels

Hey now, I predicted a Curry Guy heel turn a while back. I'm guessing he'll join Central. I still think Erina's gonna go back to her dad at some point too.

Possibly. I mean he wasn't even going to send Soma there originally

In N Out is good, but not clothes exploding foodgasm good.

BTW I just ate taco bell, although I expect something else to explode.

Hey manga gaf can you guys recommend me some good romance manga? Looking for more slice of life then fantasy and something a little more serious.

Shonen

Cross Game
Forget Me Not
Horimiya

Shojo

My Little Monster
Strobe Edge, Blue Spring Ride, Omoi Omoware Furi Furare (The Sakisaka stuff is so good)
 

Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken 1-10


Young shounen Middle aged guy gets thrown into gets killed and reincarnated in a fantasy world as a super warrior a mere slime.

He's still OP and using his human knowledge to do things such as ruling over clans, making plans, etc.

I liked what I read, but it is one in many for this type of manga. I'll wait to see what this one has to offer compared to Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu, Sentou Jousai Masurawo, or RE:Monster.

He certainly doesn't seem enamored by it. I will be disappointed if there isn't more to it than "I didn't want to send him there."

She needs to go back to her daddy so that her rekindling and rebetrayal of daddy right in his face is all the more sweeter.

That would be the predictable story development.

So fired up about magic swords.
No doubt will end up making some anyway.
 

Semblance

shhh Graham I'm still compiling this Radiant map
River's Edge - fin.


Yamada is a quiet kid who has been suffering from bullying at school. He has a girlfriend, of sorts, but he's secretly gay. Kozue is a short-haired girl who stares at the world with an apathetic gaze. She juggles classes and her modeling career throughout the day, and in her free time she gorges on food only to throw it all right back up. Haruna is the girlfriend of the kid beating up Yamada and goes out of her way to try and protect him from her boyfriend. She tries her best for others, maybe at her own expense. All of these kids are lost in life, shuffling their way through high school.

There's some real nasty emotions and actions in River's Edge. Anger, insecurity, jealousy. Kids who abuse each other. Kids who latch on to one another so they don't feel so alone too. Some of them aren't necessarily bad people even if they do bad things, and some are just a mess, but it all works because these characters feel like actual human beings. Okazaki pulls the absolute worst out of her teens, but it's kept realistic, honest. I appreciate that she doesn't hold back, doesn't apologize for shit, and lets her story boil until everything spills over in one turbulent night in the final chapters. It ain't comforting, but so be it.

Wish more of Okazaki's stuff was available to read in English. This wasn't quite on par with Helter Skelter - not that I expected it to be - but it still stuck in my head even after I finished it. Good read.
