Oh boob. Sorry for that, I only read the OP of the MaoYuu thread. I'll switch to that thread. In exchange for my failures, I want to recommend Under the Air, a collection of one-shots by Osamu Tezuka.  I was craving for a good one-shot collection after (I think) Nickelodeon ended and found this to be satisfying. It's nowhere as cute as that series, but each story had a unique premise and a nice development. It also had more pages per chapter, so plot progresses in a more natural way. My favourite chapter was the source of the image above, Chameleon. toanoradian fucked around with this message at 14:34 on May 14, 2013 |

So I was just browsing for some raw manga and come across the raw versions of Cooking Papa. Can you guess what is the latest volume of that manga? 124 goddamn volumes  It's actually the fourth-longest running manga series. I thought this was like an old manga 10-20 volumes long when I first found it, but I never thought it could ever be this long.Also, there's a japanese blog that tries to reproduce the recipes given in the manga. It had plenty of pictures, if you like that sort of thing. toanoradian fucked around with this message at 11:19 on Jun 10, 2013 |

Here's something I just found: Haru no Houtai Shujo. It's about a boy and a girl who are dating each other, whose town is currently being troubled by serial arson. Turns out the boy may have something to do with them and end up burning the girl. The manga has a nice sense of mystery alongside typical high-school antics. The main pair has their genuinely adorable and dark moments. I just hope it won't get too action-y later.

Fabricated posted:There's a bunch of others, including some Doogie Howser type one which I can't remember the name of with a young doctor who does pediatrics but hospitals hate pediatrics in Japan I guess because they're money losers. I think he ironically has the weirdo flipped-heart disease that is fixed by the big procedure Team Medical Dragon was made for. That was The Best Skilled Surgeon, made by the same author who made Yakitate Japan. A particular Doctor manga I liked is Godhand Teru, if only because the mood is the exact opposite of Team Medical Dragon. There the main character is similarly super-skilled (he has had no dead patients), but the hospital he's in is filled with bright, cheerful specialists who all have good rapport with patients. Only after like 30 volumes does the main character moves to a horribly managed profit-targeting hospital with horrible residents. He of course then proceeds to wow the non-resident hospital staff with his smile and optimism. A bit unrealistic, but quite a good introduction to all the specialists a hospital may need.

I debated whether to put this in the romance thread, the weird daily life thread or this one, but apparently it's Seinen, so... What's with people wanting to touch other people's butts? toanoradian fucked around with this message at 12:57 on Feb 1, 2014 |

Whatever happened to the Dowman Sayman thread? There's a new chapter of Nickelodeon. It's essentially a Hobby Collector's Manifesto. It's also set in the same universe as (and a sequel to) a previous chapter, Paracelsus' Beloved Disciples. I'd like it if the 'Disciples' MC got his spirit back instead getting a new one, because the old one had a better design. I guess the fact that the 'Wunderkammer' MC's spirit remembers Org defeating him could mean that memories between spirits of the same person is shared or that it's possible to lose without killing the spirit.

After I found Yowamushi Pedal from the Shonen thread, I went around looking for other hot-blooded sports manga featuring less popular sports. I came across Gunjou, a manga about ekiden, a long-distance relay race done on roads. The manga stars a female protagonist whose only joy in the world is to run in ekidens and specifically registered to this one school where everybody good at anything is already on their own great team because one of the teachers is a legendary ekiden runner. I went in expecting some hot-blooded running and hot blooded convincing the teacher to return to the majestic road of relay racing, some awesome burning camaraderie and lots of running terms and special abilities. Turns out it's actually a drama and most of the focus was on personal tragedies. There is competitive running somewhere in there, but after that is a multiple chapter flashback about an energetic sports coach slowly dying from a disease. I balked then, but now that I re-read it, it's not a bad story. It didn't focus much on the competitive aspect of a sports, but more on the effects of how a sport affects the athletes. The way the teammates are 'recruited' is, while not unique, quite interesting. How the tragedies sort of relate to each other is also, I think, nicely done. Also also, a sports manga featuring all girls. Haven't seen that one too often. Can't name one off the top of my head. It spent about four volumes just getting the main five person and the coach together, and turns out it ends in five volumes. Oh well. For all I said about how this isn't hot-blooded though, the latest chapter of this tragedic sports manga is of course five girls trying to outrun a train, one of them running solely on ~friendship~ and another being motivated by the sweaty efforts of the other. Try the series out.

How could I forget Teppu  To be honest, I could name one sports manga featuring mostly girls, but it is filled with fanservice, so...

Are you guys reading Dr. Hitomi's Infirmary? Let me quote the great venerable captain:Captain Invictus posted:Dr. Hitomi's Infirmary is about a cyclopean school nurse in a world of monster-people. Teachers include a four-armed dude, Basically Chewbacca, a plant-girl, and a woman who has control of her hair. I think you guys should read it, or at least the latest chapter, because it deals with an interesting problem: a girl turning, literally, two dimensional:
