This is an odd question out of nowhere but how many of you read manga on a tablet and if so what do you use + do you like it.

I use an ipad pro and yeah, it works really well. It's also my bedtime browser when using the forums.

I just saw the trailer for FX's Shogun series.

Are we sure that Hiroyuki Sanada isn't actually a time traveling samurai who ended up on modern day and became an actor?

and yeah I'm usually a computer reader but using a keyboard+mouse, or tapping a phone due to the size, is about to become very unpleasant (already is quite a bit) for a while soon so/ but I'm looking for alternatives.

Yeah, i honestly can't see a reason to eat out in Canada when I can make fast food for a third of the price, nevermind an actual effort meal.

Speaking of Lain the other day it looks like Boa rereleased their first single Duvet to mark the 25th anniversary of the song and by extension the show.

This is peak autumn listening, IMO, and the new video is hitting those Lain visuals more than a little.

~honda best man~


there’s this chain popular on instagram currently, “six mangas to know me”. here’s my friend’s:



without stewing on it for hours, my list would probably be (no order):

- oyasumi punpun
- chainsaw man
- golden kamuy
- dungeon meshi
- blue period
- one piece

of which 4/6 began and 2/6 finished serialization within the last decade. am I recency biased? or are modern mangaka cooking harder because they’ve got decades of seminal work to learn from?

Wish I was there...
from what's available legally and illegally in english, we're really only scratching the surface of 20th century manga, who knows what kinds of masterpieces are left out of sight because of subject matter, language barriers, etc. and often with those older manga series, you'll get one-thousandth the engagement than your average mangaplus series, if that.

while driving to the hospital I got to drive off the road onto the sidewalk(driving up one of those 90 degree angle curbs) to avoid being smashed into by a fire truck barreling down the wrong side of the road with lights and sirens blaring

I get having to get there asap but JESUS CHRIST

Yeah fire trucks usually have to obey traffic laws even if they can bend a few when going lights and sirens. I've never seen one go the wrong way down a street though. Seen ambulances pull that trick but not fire trucks.

well, more specifically, people on the other side of the road were pulling over(poorly), so it started driving down the middle of the road and swerving around people in front of it into my lane going the opposite direction, likely because they saw everyone in my lane pulling over as much as possible while people in their lane were doing a real bad job of it. they weren't completely in my lane but it was a good 50/50 straddling the middle line and with a fire truck that might as well be 80% of the lane, with occasional swerves further in to avoid randos in their lane who just stopped in their tracks instead of getting the gently caress over

must've been a real bad fire if they were going that hard

Always pull right for sirens and lights, regardless of what lane you're in because they're in a much bigger hurry than you.

wow no poo poo

this was a 1 lane going each direction road, to be clear. not a lot of room to maneuver to begin with and I always pull over for emergency vehicles, but I've never seen a fire truck go so hard into the oncoming traffic lane before

Usually when ambulances go the wrong way it's like you described except traffic was already stopped and there's no way to get over, busy intersections and such. Never seen one have to dodge and weave though, it's either all in the left hand lane or not.

Goondolences. Put ice/a bad of frozen vegetables on it. It will increase blood flow and let it heal faster.
