It had its creepy moments, and I found it pretty amusing, sometimes. Although, as a collection, it had its ups and downs. I thought the final story was good, but didn't fit in with all the rest. Not creepy enough!

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Silver Spoon has recently gotten totally ridiculous. Not in a bad way, but its just...ridiculous.

Alabastre, somewhat random, but I always like how you use tags in your impressions.

Hey, thanks! I just figured it would help people decide if they want to read it or not, y'know? On the other hand, I don't usually post about raw stuff I read, unless it's available to others physically or online. In that case, I don't have to use the "raw" tag, so I'm not sure why I did that... Sigh. I need sleep.

Nice glasses! If my friend's dog (my avatar) had glasses, he would look too regal for me to use.

Also, boo @ Arakawa for teasing resolving the Mihachikage plot and then just not resolving it. Hachiken is totally a fucking chicken.

I just tried to explain the plot of My Balls to a friend of mine. Hilarity ensued.
 
This is just going to be a long running joke throughout the entire series.

:(

I understand that she wants to make it a slice of life series focused on the agricultural side and not just another romance manga, and that's why she is avoiding it. But at this point it feels silly. Like the characters of the story said, everybody knows what's up already. At this point she should have made them a couple who is dating "between chapters", if she didn't want to focus on that.

It does help. Especially for series where the covers don't give much away.

And thanks for the compliment, haha. It was supposed to be momentary, but now I'm thinking about keeping them :D

So, he'll definitely going to read it, right?

The reason the conversation came up was that I was describing how they don't have visible penises in anything in Japan, not even porn or hentai.

Ah yeah, that strange rule in censorship. I think the specific rule is no erect penis, but if it flacid, then it's okay to show since I remember from i see full frontal male nudity on MPD Psycho. It's a dead body though, so there might be different rules for that. And yeah, the censorship is either using beam of light or shadow...

Doesn't uncensored hentai exist though? How does that happen? Just make it somewhere else and then import it in on the interwebs?

That brings up another question - can Japanese people just watch foreign porn or is the internet censored also?

Mostly redrawing. Sometimes the censorship is so light that it's easier to do, other times it's harder to pull off (talking about scans). Also volumes usually have lesser censorship than what's in magazines when chapters are published.
Naturally the censorship is applied afterward, so there are uncensored drawings. If the porn gets licensed in the west, they can come uncensored over here.

Man the existing Takkoku translation is all kinda of various kinds of... um, okay, wait. I don't wanna be rude, okay? But... it's not that good.

I mean, y'know? It's not like I cherry picked this, y'know? I feel bad, but... y'know?
 
Genshiken Volume 10

So the otaku boy's club ends transformed in fujoshi's club. Oh the irony.

Hato-kun is... slightly confused.
I suspect this character is going to be both played as humor, and also seriously, dealing with transgender issues. But as I was saying, he seems confused. He says he likes crossdressing and all that, it seems he feels more as a woman, but he says he isn't gay. But... he likes Maradame? I think he is still in process of defining both his sexuality and gender. Hell, all the part where he sees himself as another person floating when he is dressed as a boy (and comments on his actions in third person) is kind of deluding.
It's also kind of weird how the socially akward Maradame have no problem interacting with Hato. Uhh.

Ouch. That had to hurt.
It sounds as a truth, maybe if his heart would have been broken by Saki after a failed confession, he could have moved on later and grown as a person, but his cowardice have him stuck on a safe otaku pattern.
I hope that, sometime in the future, after he moves on or find another girl, he can stay as friends with her. Apart from the obvious crush, I think they liked each other as strange friends. In fact now I understand now she went home early in the party with everyone else to not make it hard to Maradame.
 
Musume no Iede 1

That escalated quickly. It's Takako Shimura's new manga but I don't know what to think of it yet, the translation was kinda of a mess.

That seems the art of Hourou Musuko... yeah I was right.

But MU says it's from 2012, and in 2014 she published something new called Wagamama Chie-chan

That actually makes so much sense I can't figure out how I didn't think of it.
