Started reading through The Apothecary Diaries LN, into the second volume now and I'm really enjoying it. MaoMao's got a very Sherlock Holmes feel to her, with her intense interest in her fields and complete lack of any in others, while she has many of Holmes's skills at deduction, poisons/drugs. I'm glad her and Jinshi have settled in together in vol 2 because the two of them have a great relationship that really fun to follow along.

I'd give this one a good two thumbs up so far.

Devilman G wasn't written by Go Nagai, it was by Rui Takato.

You know, I think I'm fresh out of time for reading manga! What a coincidence.

From the 2 or 3 chapters I saw, it's only "rape" in the sense that the woman's pelvis is a literal monster head with a face and her crotch is its mouth and it's eating the dude's dick and balls off along with his intestines and most of his other internal organs.

... if that helps.

No it was written by Go Nagai (who I'd never heard of until I looked it up just now, incidentally). Rui Takatou was the artist on it.

You might be thinking of Hagure Idol, which is both drawn and written by Takatou.

I'm just posting the screenshot because it's one I had from the anime adaptation currently airing, not actually telling you you suck for not psychically knowing the source. :v:

Please be careful with spoilers because when I last left off with the manga which was ongoing, the event I put in spoiler tags I don't think happened yet? :)

But yes you're exactly right and its a huge appeal to me when reading it; aside form the very pretty art style. It feels like a pretty good Sherlock Holmes adaption except "in China"; although I dunno why, but it also feels like an isekai to me. Maomao's thought processes feel very contemporary to me; and its also never really specified afaik in the manga anyways, which era of China it takes place in, so it could be a fantasy China for all I know; which is cool. It has layers.

I think the most clear and interesting Holmes comparison is her addiction is very Holmes/House-like.

Oh I don't mean that they're "in a relationship" just that the interactions they have are really fun. IE that the relationship they've developed with the sort of disdain Maomao has for Jinshi while Jinshi finds her appealing as the only woman not beguiled by his good looks is fun, not that they're dating.
