Nate RFB posted:That manga almost belongs in the Shoujo & Romance thread at this point. What a nice find it's been. Gosh, do you think discussion should be moved over there instead, then?  -- Additionally, I kind of like that thing that Shiragami's always doing with her hand over her mouth, it's kind of a funny quirk.

Nate RFB posted:Well it doesn't really matter, I just like that that portion is getting a lot of attention as well as the absurd and surreal stuff. Might as well keep it where it first got noticed for now I guess? Yeah, that's true, though there's no reason why we can't plug it there too! By the way -- hey you! Yes, the person reading this thread! If you haven't picked this up yet, here's a reason why you should:

Man the scanlation for Jitsu wa Watashi wa is pretty terrible. If it's as good as you guys say it is I guess I'll have to search for some decent raws.

They got a new translator recently, which has improved things a bit more at least.

It's been a long time since I've read a manga, and I've been browsing what everyone been posting. Really excellent suggestions. I started browsing the kissmanga site that everyone was linking too. And I found this. http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Monster-Musume-no-Iru-Nichijou I think this counts as Absurd.

Well, I guess if you wanted an example of how JWWW (I like this acronym so I'm stealing it from Invictus) could be terrible in every possible way that would be the manga for you.

Ecchi manga can end up being good comedies. Sex is funny. It has good jokes, at least.

Thank you for taking the time to actually read it, I will admit the few mangas that I've ever bought were harem style (love hina, tenchi muyo). So that might be why I liked this one.

I'm at the point they met the centaur girl and the character dynamics are really amusing.

Yeah, so long as you can get over the fanservice, it's a lot of fun. Gotta wonder if the government is actually making up for the massive costs they're laying on him (beyond just endlessly expanding his house).

Well, the empty eyes thing is typically shorthand for comedic expressions, so having them on him permanently kind of contributes to the light-heartedness of the whole thing. After all, the default is silly rather than serious. And her weight does get mentioned at least a bit, so you've got that to look forward to.

I've never read the series but I know the people doing it put a lot of love into their editing. I read Jitsu wa Watashi wa up to chapter 25 and it's pretty decent. Kinda surprised there are a lot more chapters out than what's scanlated (I saw up to chapter 57, dunno if that's current in Japan). Man, though, the mangaka's eyes keep getting bigger and bigger while the faces themselves don't change. It's kinda like a throwback to the 90s. Dunno if I like it enough to buy it and find out what happens next, but it's certainly amusing enough.

So I was kinda bored these past two days and wanted something new to read so I binged through some of the more recommended stuff in here, like Angel Densetsu, Tonari no Seki-kun, Jitsu wa Watashi wa, Sumire, all of which were really good... and I just finished Onani Master Kurosawa. Oh god that was so good.

Which isnt as bad as the all guy high school that also had a dormitory and students were required to stay until the weekends. P.S. So I read a little more of it, its interesting. P.P.S. I got to the second chapter page 30 and my body refused to press the button to go to the next page. mrhotdogvendor fucked around with this message at 02:52 on Apr 18, 2014 |

Oh god, I know I'm kind of late to the party, but the description for Sumire was just so bizarre that I had to take a look at the first couple chapters. Before I knew it, hours had passed and I found myself bawling my eyes out at the ending.  I never knew how much this surreal slice of life style appealed to me. I'll definitely be checking out all the other series linked in the OP.

You should read Legend of an Angel next, it's really kind of sweet in a weird way.

Yeah, it's hard to believe it's by the same guy as Claymore, and (in my opinion) he's way better at comedy than he is the more action-oriented, serious plot of Claymore. Like you said, the comedic timing is just great. I hope his next series is another comedy.
