Chatterbox - Anime & Manga

Try to avoid looking at her feet at times.

I don't really pay attention to her feet unless it's obvious that I'm supposed to look at them, like when she was playing footsie with her hubby that one time... which ended up with me boggling at the sight of an incomprehensible tangle of feet (like "That should be anatomically impossible!" and "... Which foot belongs to which of the two characters, anyway?") as he was telling her that he's got to go on a business trip during Golden Week.

Speaking of which... I LMAO'd at the sight of Darling arriving at the flea market with a face mask hiding his face. Is he really that shy of women?

Also... "ALL OF MY FIRSTS WERE WITH DARLING!" XD Way to go, girl! Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the paragon of wifely fidelity!

EDIT: ... I do not know much about Leonardo DiCaprio, but from what little I know, it's amazing that Mrs. Okita only gives his poster a brief glance and dismisses his looks completely. Now I must know what Darling looks like!

EDIT The 2nd: ... And where the hell do they keep getting those blankets from?! XD Seriously, even in the hallway of their apartment! Do they become allergic to light when they're having sex, or something?

I'm reading it now, too...

....holy shit, I think i have a new Waifu.

I've seen people describe the story as "an adult Orihime Inoue in a happy marriage". It seems pretty apt, considering the woman's looks and personality.

The last Chapter of Bleach's Orihime is actually Kyouko

His other work (Ashitaba-san Chi no Muko Kurashi) really ups the talents of the ladies.

He's really good at writing women that have personality beyond the traditional character archetypes.

Its rare for a female writer, let alone a male writer, to be able to do that in the manga industry from all the stuff I read.

Occasionally on Crunchyroll I try out watching with subtitles in a non-English language, specifically French. And I gotta say, the style of those subs is quite different. English subs in Crunchyroll have a lot of anime-speak left intact, such as honorifics (-san, sensei, onii-chan, to name a few), but in French the subbers translate it whenever they could, from what I've seen anyway.

..... Aya Hirano was studying in the USA for a few years and no one told me!?!?

So it looks like the next work of Nisekoi author, Komi Naoshi will be... genderbent Nisekoi?◊

Looks like Blonde Raku and Emo-dera to me.

Is it true that he wrote Nisekoi as revenge on the readership for not buying his earlier, more imaginative manga, so he made it as generic as possible, and they ate it up, proving that you can't go broke underestimating the taste of otakus even if you try?

If it is, that's amazing.

I'd like a link first to be honest.

Sounds like the kind of trufax people invent and spread around to justify their dislike of stuff.

That be lamest revenge ever... giving people what they wanted, sure showed them. Sounds fake.

If true that's not really revenge so much as a bitter social experiment.

He wouldn't REALLY be wrong about "you can't go wrong underestimating otaku's tastes", either.

Meh, I dropped Nisekoi once the fourth or so girl showed up. It was so ridiculous I could no longer suspend my disbelief. What, was Raku some super smooth casanova as a kid, dating a million different girls at once, then somehow losing most of his memory shortly after?

It's sad. Nisekoi's premise had so much promise.

Nisekoi is the pinnacle of what is wrong with most Harems that copied off of Love Hina, usually for the worst.

I only heard this rumour going around on 4chan and wondered if there was some evidence for it. It would explain how generic but well-made the whole thing is.

If it's from 4chan it's probably fake.

I often read on 4chan that everything posted there is trolling, but I don't know whether to believe them.

So I tried to get back into finishing Cat Planet Cuties and I suddenly remembered why I stopped.

Can we just burn the Accidental Pervert trope forever?

Hence why Highschool Dx D is so good, because the main character isn't accidental in his wants.
