Rock Paper Scissors 1

Harem series set in a floating academic city in the Pacific, where kids with superpowers reside. Too early to say for sure how it'll develop, but the setting's home to 1,048 student councils so they'll probably be beating the bananas out of each-other at some stage. I lost count of the number of panty shots about halfway through. Based on a light novel and will likely be bad. Added to backlog.

The annoying thing about Touhou is that while there's a fair amount of official characterization from the games and such, you need to not get it mixed up with the more popular fan interpretations of personalities, etc.
I probably know more useless Touhou knowledge than I should, though.

Which series had the highest quality waifus?

When I'm pressed to think about it, my mind is suddenly blank.

I'm referring to harems, by the way. Not single waifus.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
Bakemonogatari obviously.

All the waifus were SSS tier.

So Yato still has to obey his father lol. He really doesnt want to be forgotten by Hiyori.

It was cool seeing other gods. And the plot thickens.

Good panel and especially the one after it putting most of the entities that weve seen into Kanata's vision. It is odd that he would openly use his power during such a moment of unrest so he kind of deserved being taken away for that, but it seemed like a simple side effect.

I'm kind of disappointed this degenerated into a romance, actually. I think a platonic version of this concept, with a whimsical writer dragging a straight-laced editor through all sorts of shenanigans, would be compelling. Not a fan of age gap romances in general either.

Confused why one, who is trapped in this death game, would level up the sewing skill. Such a waste of time when she could have been putting that energy to advancing the front line.

Oh, this finished? I remember enjoying Venus Capriccio awhile back. Hm.\

Edit:

Lip Smoke 1-4 - Hm. I don't really mind age gaps but they spend a lot of time (like, every other page) bringing it up. I guess it's part of the "theme" here but it really gets hammered in. Still, it's kind of sweet and the girl is fairly interesting / their interactions are humorous.

I would rather the story be about something different then a missing persons cases. But it did introduce them finally and formally as hunter so perhaps the story will open up from there. It really needs to be longer than 9 pages.

The artist is great with underwater arts. Underwater to serve as the illusion medium to help bring about the backstory made it one of the more easy to follow chapters. As is the series focus, the consequences of every action has huge implications and unfortunately for Lee Harin she had to learn it in the most cruel way possible.

Nanatsu no Taizai 70 - ...Gowther is frightening.

So the entire reason behind Dreyfus' part in the framing of the Sins was ... a petty grudge?

A mana factory sounded creepy especially if they do hook people up like that in the dungeons.

With him back with Sun-li things should be a bit more exciting now as games are always more fun when you grind with someone else.

By the sound of things, he took part in killing his brother / Zaratras (the previous Great Holy Knight) due to his sense of being inferior to him. That's what I'm getting from that, anyway.

Ah. I thought you meant Dreyfus had a grudge against Melodias for saying he (Dreyfus) was a better swordsman than his bro.

But yeah. Apparently Captain America can take them all on, or something. I dunno.

Saikin, Imouto no Yousu ga Chotto Okashii n da ga 1-2 - I forgot to read something trashy today. Main girl's mother remarried so she suddenly gained a brother blah blah blah an angelghost possessed her and now she needs to do stuff with him to satisfy her so she can pass on or else she dies etc. etc.

Normal stuff.

Edit: THIS GOT AN ANIME?! why

Well you are pretty late to the party.

It's also getting a live action adaptation too.

Rock Paper Scissors 1 - So I went ahead and read this. Hm. There's like ... fanservice on basically every page? The notion of all the powers is interesting but it really depends on how well they get used. Then again, considering the whole "getting excited" weakness of their powers, I should probably just expect dumb things to happen.

Also, just the one chapter so I don't even know why I'm getting my hopes up.

Always a good idea to break up masturbating over your little sister to play Baseball with FEELS. A great father - son chapter out of nowhere!

Kids with special powers all live on a floating island. Only problem is that they don't activated if they don't turn on which might be a problem with how much panties get into someone's viewpoint in this series.

Well I guess another kids with powers thing, but it wasn't bad. Wouldn't mind seeing more of these powers. I would be interested in this whole connection with a power and its name being some famous artist but like I know anything about art history.

TWGOK is ending in 3 or so weeks. We never got out of the childhook arc. The damn childhood arc killed the series.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

As someone who follows the series since the manga started, I wish Wakaki-sensei have an ending that can wrap up whatever odd questions that linger around.

I can see the ending... not--

Rika 15 (The end?)

When I started this, it was on a recommendation from Wonzo for something like that thread where the guy watched porn on his ipad sleeping in the same room as his sister, and was afraid that she heard it.

I didn't expect something that would overwhelm me by the end. What started out as a series about an 8th grader masturbating to a picture of his then 10 year old sister actually turned into a charming story about kids going through puberty and changes in their bodies ( I can't believe I wrote that sentence). Every chapter, I would take a screen shot or 2, thinking "this is going to be really funny to post on GAF", but by the end of the chapter, all I wanted to do was keep reading the next chapter because I found everything compelling. It looks like the series went on hiatus in September of last year, possibly undergoing a name change or a magazine swap. I really hope it continues, because I loved what I read.

Here was one of the pictures I was going to post earlier

Wait, I've pretty much dropped it since the childhood arc, and they're really ending in that arc?

Argh.

Chihiro better win.
