The slight blurriness of her hand as she's having an existential crisis is a great touch!

Kid, don't threaten me. There are worse things than death, and uh, I can do all of them.
I can't wait for the realization that Toda's perverted thought images are her own imagination.

She hasn't revealed Toda's thoughts to Mana, correct?

You know, she could have easily tested the mind-reading thing by having Mana, like, read off numbers or words from a random generator on the internet or something, while she was looking away from Mana.

Sure but teenagers don't make the best decisions normally much less when under pressure.


Also we wouldn't have gotten Mana-VR and that won't do.

Well, if this is seriously the first time she's ever doubted her own mind reading abilities, then it's likely she's never tested them before and doesn't even know where to start.

Mana should get her own spinoff where she solves mysteries. :colbert:

I like the implications of her sitting on her back as if she chased after her and actually pounced, which gave me the vivid mental image of David Attenborough narrating the scene in slow-motion: "And here we see the Mana, a fearsom predator, chasing down her subject until she gets close enough to lunge and make a successful capture.."

Would a detective have their own laboratory? I think not. Mana is a scientist.

We got the Hot Springs episode.

RIP demon priest. I love when the teddy bears aren't the main focus of the panel, just casually going along with the princess. Almost a little game of finding them.

It's always super fun to look in the backgrounds of comics like One Piece, Monster Secret, etc. and see the easter eggs. Attention to detail!

I've got two new chapters of ninja Normal Girl Shinobu-Chan!

I've long been fascinated with how the alt-right develops elaborate and obscure dog whistles to try to communicate their meaning without having to say it out loud
Stepan Andreyevich Bandera being the most prominent example of that

This is such a solid little series. Even the side characters are getting their time to shine. Does it really end in 14 chapters? Ah well.

Why do translators never translate that confused "Ehhh" sound into something someone would actually say in english?

Or are all translators just canadian

Um excuse me, I translate, I don't rewrite the author's work. :smugbert:

EDIT: But yeah, it'd be super easy to just make it "Whaaaaaaa?!" Why this never occurs, even in the better translated ones, I have no clue. They must be putting some effort in since they bother to translate and redraw the sound effects too!

I think the localization of "Eeeeeeeehhh?!" is the dramatic Teen Sigh.

I dunno, it may be more of a regional thing. "Ehhhhhh?!" isn't just a Japanese thing, I'm pretty familiar with it in my area.
