That was number one on Japanese kindle for a bit. How is it?

Are you familiar with Kui Ryoko?

I read the first chapter and I think it retains Kui Ryoko's characteristic. It's a food/cooking manga with a dungeon exploration setting. It has a quirky sense of humor and the cast are all lovable.

Dungeon Meshi ch1 by Kui Ryoko

An interesting take on dungeon crawling in that it puts far more emphasis on resource management, exploration, knowledge gathering and world building rather than waifus or shit. And of course, cooking. The so far likable and somewhat zany cast coupled with the deadpan and offbeat humor as well as the competent art makes it pretty pleasant to read.

Definitely recommended.

Ahh. Good old dungeon crawling.

Hori confirmed for smartest Nozaki-kun for figuring this all out

The fuck is that opening page?

I don't think I've ever sold equipment in an RPG. It's never, ever worth it.

Maybe just to clean the inventory if that.

Equipment? Not usually. But stuff like materials or consumables I toss that shit out all the time. I'm constantly selling blood stone shards in Bloodborne so I can squeeze out a few extra echoes to buy something or level up.

I'd say that guy got a huge upgrade if his porno mag was replaced with that picture.

Minamoto-kun Monogatari 160-161

I don't get it, why wasn't he moving?
Also why was sports girl wearing pajamas in the store in the flashback?

Crazy teacher was the best part of the chapter.
 
Minamoto 160-161
Likewise, just finish the sports girl arc already. Or finish off the sports girl instead. Ideally using something corrosive.

Selling equipment can be a prudent financial venture in the right economic climate. Unless the game has a synth system, in which case that sword you just sold was probably a key ingredient for the ultimate weapon.

Eh, the premise is interesting but frankly the execution (hur hur) is kind of boring and I don't really feel much for either of the protagonists in any way (positive or negative). SmutGAF banner you disappoint me. Dropped.

Great covers tho. That bubble treatment.

I kind of like how the producer doesn't give any fucks.

The official translation is so much better. He doesn't just say "I rigged this competition" and instead just says it confirmed that Le Bard was the best.

Thinking they have the best commercial appeal isn't fucking rigging the competition. That's just them winning.

Even if that's how he originally meant it, he decided to go all-in on being an asshole after they confronted him.

Hiramoto's ability to constantly be able to draw images reflected in characters eyes' in a weekly series is commendable.

Truly the savior we deserve.
 
Chihoukishi Hans no Junan 01

Hans is a former knight now living in the countryside living a peaceful life until one day some Japanese people started to suddenly appear each with their own super powers.

Pretty amusing, poor Hans, his peaceful days are over.

Ah, right. April 1st. Almost forgot.

Too many people translate country dialects kinda like this though, which is pretty sad.

I wouldn't think Kiyoshi would be the one stepping out of it, much less due to trauma as a child.

Hana complete innocence is still as cute/amusing as ever, it's amazing how she can even pull it off while trying to force Kiyoshi to do the ouroboros so she can pee on his face.

I don't know how it's possible to even write a character wanting to piss on someone face as innocent, but apparently it is.

Poor PBR though, this will be the driving wrench between Kiyoshi and the boys.

Stop taking drugs oh king

Eh, the first time I read Kingdom I was on a Hypnotic medicine that the doctor had prescribed.

At some point I started seeing each individual panels with animation, everything was moving in the panels. I was severally confused until I remember I had taken some medicine, at which point I figure I might just enjoy it.
Apparently I read some 20 pages like this considering the marker when I woke up, but I only recall reading the first 5 or so pages.

It was quite the amazing experience, made me wish I could read all mangas with "animated" panels.

Good times.

Huh? What did I say? Did I screw up again? :(
Natsu no Zenjitsu - 34

I saw it coming but didn't think it was doing to be this heavy. The whole 'Not yet' answer was a piece of morbid foreshadowing it seems. I'm not sure how the sequence of events in this chapter is not the beginnings of his final descent into darkness. There was a strange glitter of light during the sandwich scene but i feel like that stronger changed version of our MC is a McGuffin.

Did you read it scanlated or in Japanese?

Hiramoto > Yabuki at leaving interesting images in reflections

Also, Cake-san now in the running for my new favorite girl.


Why'd you have to go and appeal to my glasses + twin-tails fixation, Hiramoto? Why'd you do it?

We're getting a glimpse at Cake-san's final form! Joe really knows how to bring out the potential in these girls.

Also Hana should admit that she wants Kiyoshi. I can feel it. But they can't desecrate PBR-sama.

Hana already admitted to her own heart that she wants Kiyoshi.
