I kinda paused reading it for a while. A bunch of uninteresting/ annoying characters and a pretty boring arc also. Hopefully it moves on to a better plot soon.

Yeah, I've put in on hold, probably until it finishes. This arc has been dragging, and I've mostly forgotten the beginning.

Man, You Will Hear The Voice of the Dead sure gets weird sometimes. Sometimes you'll get a cool little horror short with weird surreal ideas a la Junji Ito, then sometimes you get something like this week where you find out the main character is an intergalactic celebrity because aliens probed him in a previous chapter and the data for it is all over the space internet and now he has an alien childhood friend who's returned to earth to study abroad.

The only lesson I get from her is that people should vet their social circles more tightly.

she constantly drags jun into supernatural danger and then immediately discards him for her own safety as soon as the danger appears. what's more, she actively seeks this poo poo out even though it has never turned out well for anyone and has gotten several members of her club killed. when he tried to end this lovely relationship she started blackmailing him about his friendship with the goth idol.

she's the craziest one of all.

Honestly looks good from here, CG isn't egregious and the voices sound good. Hopefully this turns out great because Sci-fi anime in the current year could use a win.

Feels like a dog's age but there's a new chapter of Shiori Experience




Shiori continues to be an incredibly relatable character. I'm really hoping that the homicidal music producer doesn't gently caress things up for her.

There was a manga I read a few months ago about a teacher who helped students by not caring at all about them as people. Like a reverse Great Teacher Onizuka. He also might have been a serial killer. Does this ring any bells for anyone?

Next fight is confirmed Hercules vs Jack the Ripper. I'm praying Jack isn't like any of his incarnations in Fate/Stay, but this author is actually keeping close to the mythological/historical figures designs so I'm not too worried.

This is what I'm expecting too, it wouldn't really make for a good series if the Gods just won everything and decided it was fun and spared humanity.

At least the mangaka stuck to the core concept of red headed norseman with a hammer, and finds the underlying mythology interesting enough that they stay relatively true to the spirit of it.

And I like how they dont bend over backwards to justify how all these mythologies interlink and they just do

As compared to fate/stay jack the ripper..... and fate/stay in general:ohno:
