We have decided to decline your offer of a butt kicking.
I just got the translation for ch. 50 to him today. I'm really impressed that he got it done so fast. I am also impressed with his proofreading for ch. 49, even if I am disappointed that he went with gorgeousness instead of fabulosity.

Yokoi's reasoning for which cards win reminds me of my girlfriend's logic for which Magic card is better: the prettier one.

Chapter 50 put that one to shame, though. So good, and it's always great when Yokoi gets the better of Seki.

Seki 49/50: Yokoi trying to keep herself from laughing at the Baldy VS Moon battle was entirely too cute. I think Multi-Santa Mountain Disaster topped it though, that was just incredible. Poor Santas!

Huh, someone posted that in gbs once and I thought it was an oneshot. Can't believe they made a series out of cockroach girl the comic

What I like about that one is that it does NOT leer into the expected otaku-creep fetish territory like you'd expect. Instead, people always see her as the cockroach she really is, and have appropriate reactions, e.g. "Oh GROSS!" Which just makes the mildly bittersweet, slightly sad situations all the more :unsmith:.

I guess it says something about the state of manga and anime that a series' main positive point is that it isn't creepy.

A couple chapers of Ryuushika Ryuushika just appeared. I forget if its been mentioned in this thread before. If not, Ryuushika Ryuushika is kind of like Yotsubato except kind of weird. Here, have a sample:

Ryuushika Ryuushika has definitely been mentioned in this thread before (by me!) and it's one of my favorites. And the fact that it's in color is really lovely. The thing that makes it surreal is Ryuushika's vivid and wild imagination, it's truly the mind of a little kid. She seems to be living in her imagination half the time!

The theme of this thread is essentially "Slice of Life, but with an 'Edge'". This is why you should read Ryuushika-Ryuushika, because it's like Yotsuba&!, but with an edge of weirdness to it.

Would this happen in Yotsuba&, or any normal slice of life manga? I don't think so! It's because they're too busy being moe to be weird, and that's boring! Ryuushika-Ryuushika is interesting!

Speaking of manga that make me hungry as hell--

Two new chapters of Donyatsu have come out recently.

http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Donyatsu/Vol-004-Ch-038--Whereabouts?id=192643

I am really interested in seeing where they're going with all this! It seems like there's a really cool sci-fi plot in the works here-- we might eventually get explanations for why the world is a postapocalyptic ruin filled with delicious pastry animals.

Yeah, that's a good way to describe it! Good vibes! The closest other manga I could think of for this feel is Yankee-Kun & Megane-Chan in its earlier chapters, just a sort of positive energy.

That manga almost belongs in the Shoujo & Romance thread at this point. What a nice find it's been.
