One thing I find interesting about that series is that each volume centers largely around a different couple (though the main two are always involved to some extent).

Yeah, I like that aspect a lot, but I've seen a fair few people saying it makes it really hard to follow over the long term. I only noticed recently that the bato.to chapter titles were updated with the character/couple names, which should at least help people keep track of who's who.

Also, the manga about the guy and the girl who like 80s stuff got a new chapter: http://bato.to/comic/_/comics/slow-motion-wo-mou-ichido-r20061/

I can attest to that, since I only really read it when a new volume comes out. It took me until like volume 4 or 5 to burn that pattern into my brain, and until that happened I would get really confused at the start of each book, like "man I don't remember these characters at all...".

Yrah that was problem reading it chapter to chapter, I had no idea each couple was a separate volume.

We got two new chapters (the one I linked and the one after) of cute OL being teased by her subordinate, bringing the chapter volume to a close.

It's adorable.

e. gah, bringing the volume to a close, not the chapter. Always double-check posts!

I love this manga. I had a phase in high school where I was really into 80's Japanese music (and also Enka) and still like it a lot. The song the title is a reference to owns: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nita7HADKXM

A song with a similar feel that I like is from one of the Urusei Yatsura movies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwqNniVkuZA

The story is pretty simple but it's really cute.

vvv: Sayuri Ishikawa is my favorite Enka singer, her voice is so perfect for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSQVkZmMHKc

Wonderful facial expressions.

I looked into the paperback manga for Sasameki Koto but I only saw it on amazon for almost $70 with shipping, and the reviews were mentioning that the translation was a bit subpar with text being misaligned and even outside speech bubbles. :sigh:

Poor prints are always disappointing. And that seems quite expensive, given it's not THAT old right? I guess it wouldn't have gotten a large print, but still.

Ooooh, there's a Kindred Spirits On The Roof manga, set a year after the game. That might be worth looking into.

I didn't notice anything much to complain about in the Sasameki Koto volumes, plus i could have sworn they were planning on doing another run. Then again, that might already have happened for all i know, time moves too quickly sometimes. It's not out of print after all. Yay


It's cheaper on kindle if that's an option, or just buy a volume every paycheck or something maybe

That's promising. :)

I prefer paperback because I'm old fashioned like that and I don't have anything but my computer to read kindle stuff on (that works, right?) so it's not a good option for me. Cheapest shipping is eight bucks and takes about a month which makes buying them together much smarter. But I wish amazon would stop taunting me with free shipping that I'm not eligible for, it's very rude. Is their own shipping worth the extra cost (almost double)? I'm not too concerned about being able to track it in real time to guess which day my package will arrive or whatever but I do want it here safely. Also why is it so hard to see what the shipping options would cost? It's like they're trying to hide it. A sensible store would just display how much every option costs when you select them.

Maybe I should buy that instead if I wait until then. Or together if I want to spend even more than I shouldn't. :v:

It's tough following what's going on there both situation and chronology wise. Like earlier stuff is in Enna's domain in the north, and this is taking place in the South. The horned one's don't want to run afoul of the pact they have with the Templar, and Victoria kills the leader to get them to deal with the bodies because ???. I suppose we'll find that out soon-ish since Captain's Worries finished up.

Finally had a chance to read the big Tsubaki-chou Lonely Planet update, it was so good! Also goddammit Fumi you better say yes :mad:

I'm wondering how far this is going to end up going, it's still listed as ongoing and there's still another volume yet to be translated. It finally started getting into some details on how emotionally constipated Akatsuki is so I want to see more of that, why he's so closed off and how he's gonna learn not to be like that since it hasn't worked out well for him so far lmao. Fumi is so precious too, there wasn't anything particularly sad in the update but her feelings resonated with me or something and I cried through like 5 chapters straight lol

Yeah I barely have any idea what's going on in that, and can't be bothered to sort it out beyond the fact that the main character(?) is a vampire hunter who lives with a vampire? :shrug: I wish it was more coherent but whatever.

I really like Koi Inu, the main couple is really cute and the goofy faces are great. They get together really quickly and then it's just two idiots awkwardly having a pretty heartfelt romance. Some of the drama is a bit contrived though.

the latest update has the standard wacky misunderstanding that has led so many shojo down a path of stupid drama get axed by the extremely blunt protagonist
