Honestly I'm more invested in her and Hajime's stuff right now than anything going on with Aoba or Momo. Those two feel like they're kinda treading water.

I was going to protest that New Game isn't a romance manga so this isn't the right thread, but then I remembered the bonus pages for Chapter 65.

I've been reading My Unrequited Love and man.

I like angsty romance, but the main character is so... Flat. She has nothing going on other than her crush.


What are some good angsty romance manga, preferably lesser known, preferably about already established relationships? :v:

She gets a bit more character later when other relationships are introduced.

I am guessing you're probably already reading Living With My Brother's Wife.

Tonari wa Nani o Kuu Hito zo - Horoyoi is still fun, I think I like this sequel better than the original since it's just chill slice of life couple stuff (and cooking). Had to laugh at the new chapter and how he's just casually undressing her while they talk through the first few pages

original oneshot from Paishen, the author of Those (really good) kanade & syuko doujins that got posted a while back. It has a punk character, ambiguous relationship and #aesthetic smoking so complete me bait, looks like it's part of an anthology of which the prompt seems to be explicit sex

I think (might be way off mark here and if I am, sorry for the confusion) the "bait" part was referring to the "depicting a character smoking in a somewhat down to earth but somewhat sensuous manner" aesthetic kinda thing..

Sort of something like this:

The 3 1⁄2" floppies aren't even as floppy as the 5 1⁄4" or the 8" ones, so the people who know it as the save icon will be even more confused if they're only handled the newest ones.
The comedy option, of course, is to hand them a MiniDisc.

it's really hosed up that just because GUIs became a big thing during the reign of 3.5" floppy, there's a permanent icon of those dumb things you'd only save to when there was absolutely no other way because data on floppies is the fragilest thing ever lol

That's because dumb businesses bought the ones that were built down to a price because the companies who made them ordered the manefacturing companies to cut costs.
8" and 5 1⁄4" are the disks which have the highest data safety guarenteed in the spec. 3 1⁄2 disks are lower build-quality to save on costs, so naturally they're not as good - even then, if they've been stored properly, it's not uncommon to hear people pulling data off 25 year old 3 1⁄2 floppies.

The biggest problem, quite frankly, is that bitrot can be completely silent. So you won't necessarily know whether the data you get off the disk is correct, unless it presents you with problems.

Clever Betty
when my dad upgraded the family pc so we couldn't even use floppy discs anymore(our pc was oolllllddddd) and he backed up everything on the ones he had, he got a big block of styrofoam and we spent an afternoon throwing the 8 inch floppies like ninja stars into it, it ruled

get it just right and you can sink one of those suckers 3/4 of the way into styrofoam

edit: 8 inch, not 3.5 inch floppies

3.5 inch floppies don't work nearly as well as ninja stars, as any ninja turtle aficionado knows

Yeah, but I`m not actually sure if that second one is romance.

There are definitely heavy undertones, but it could really go either way.
