Urgh, when did Fallen Angels stop posting on Mdex? That fell right off my radar. Though now I see why Aharen-san, Grand Blue, and Osananajimi ni Najimitai haven't updated in a while.

Please refer to this chapter for how modern-day Japanese teenagers are "supposed to" feel about LGBT issues.

I wasn't really sure where that was leading but I think having her ultimately reflect on how lovely she had been and grow from it was a good result.

Has anyone posted about Skip to Loafer yet? There's only two (big!) chapters so far but it seems like a slice of life possibly romance series. The main character is a girl coming from a tiny country village to go to school in Tokyo, and I think she's a really interesting protagonist! I'm interested to see where the story goes.

Mirage posted:Urgh, when did Fallen Angels stop posting on Mdex? That fell right off my radar. Though now I see why Aharen-san, Grand Blue, and Osananajimi ni Najimitai haven't updated in a while. It happened like 4 months ago. Fallen Angels decided to be morally opposed to rule 2.4 on MangaDex and removed everything from the website. MangaDex lets scans groups have a lot of control over their releases on the website, even letting active groups choose to NOT allow their stuff to be uploaded. Rule 2.4 is about removing the upload restrictions on groups that become inactive. So if a group previously wasn't allowing their stuff on MangaDex and they disappear, you could cite rule 2.4 after 6 months and get the upload restriction removed for all that group's work.

Yeah the later chapters have some decent drama with monster girl's self-hatred and people going "oh god a monster", but it feels a little undercooked. Not bad, just, like I said, the sort of thing that could have used more pages than it got.

Drama and serious portrayals of real issues have their place, but sometimes what you want (and need) is just something chill and cute.

Waci posted:Yesssssss! Theres dozens of hundreds of that if you want, as I get older though I'm starting to see that kind of thing as more disingenuous and bland. Romance is inherently a form of conflict or a benign clash of personalities and wills to me and even something as simple a small fight is way more humanizing than immediately sublimating your will with no effort.

not everything i read needs to be Gunjou (is that true? the ending was really good) but I think stuff like So Do You Want To Go Out or Itoshi no Nekkoke that aren't really drama series and in the case of the former haven't had any major conflicts yet but just deal with the real kind of human clumsiness of making a relationship work are way more interesting to read than simple fluff pieces

I never really like the term fluff because I dunno it just kinda feels like it devalues the worth of any low key character drama or the story itself. I tend to call things chill but it doesn't work exactly the same, because I mean a show like ACCA is chill but it isn't fluff. e: not that I am saying it really bothers me when other people use it, its just a thing where im like "this doesn't feel as like, definite as i want it to be" when i try to like talk about something i guess Snooze Cruise fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Feb 18, 2019 |

I have a "low key" tag that I put on stuff that's mostly just about folks being folks without any high stakes dramatic poo poo going down. I do enjoy fluff tho (the stuff that's mostly just cute sugary sweetness); in contrast as I've gotten older I just don't have much taste for being wrung out emotionally over stuff so I want happy endings and only moderate levels of angst to get there.

Sharkopath posted:Yah to me Drama doesn't mean inherently destructive stress and tragedy, but I think thats what it means to others. People tend to confuse drama and dramatic. Dramas are a genre focusing on emotional development of the characters, whereas something something suspenseful dealing with those things is more dramatic. Just like how people tend to call anything sad a tragedy! (How I was taught, at least), A tragedy took a main character (typically of wealth and status in ye olden days) who suffers a tragic downfall, specifically one brought about their own flaws, mistakes, moral weaknesses or inability to cope, and, most difficult of all, catharsis at the end. To put it another way, the main character's downfall should be the logical result of those aforementioned failings. (There can also be a reversal of fortune and/or reveal at the end but it's not required). Basically, the audience isn't supposed to feel angry or confused. Dark and sad works a lot of people call tragedies are more often dramas.  Tragedy! When the feeling's gone and you can't go on it's a Tragedy! When the morning cries and you don't know why!

Brainamp posted:It was basically just a short thing that the artist kept adding on to cause people liked it. So there's pretty much no planning at all. I hate this kind of manga. The ones with two chapters and a cliffhanger.  e: Oh that just came out today lol I was confusing it with another similar one!

Everything Burrito posted:(the stuff that's mostly just cute sugary sweetness) Yea, I agree with some people said about realistic character development making low-stakes stuff more enjoyable, but I do think there's a place for the banal sweet stuff with no substance as well. It's kind of like how random cat video number 43587019 that someone posts on your facebook feed has zero artistic merit and might objectively be a crime against cinematography, but still does just fine for getting your mind off of serious stuff and onto something vaguely positive for 30 seconds.
