It could be worse. English doesn't even use them, so I pity the machine translator that has to figure out whether I read the story (past tense) or read the story (present tense). (^_~) That's a whole level of complexity beyond what I'm asking for. All I'm saying is that when I type "coir" on the le...

Well, I thought the "Miho feels them having sex" theory was too out there, but I stand corrected. Yeah me too. (Usually when a Bayesian update shifts your probability estimate by 10% or 15% in either direction, that's a pretty big deal. To go from <5% to >95% in one comic is leaving me kinda dizzy....

I would be mostly with @darrin on the psychic link, except it doesn't really make sense... To be honest no, I am still not strongly convinced of the "channeling / physically linked" idea. I am just saying that even given that assumption, there are other possible explanations besides "orgasms" for w...

DS - I am having trouble picturing those scenarios. Maybe you can sketch it out for us.

Ooh, I second that motion. DS, please feel free to mark said sketchings as NSFW (New Speculation from Forum Writings) if need be.

And finally. Yay for Fred. He has totally one upped every goofy Japanese sex scene censorship method ever. He has managed to illustrate an orgasm ( two of them now), by drawing a different girl, in a different part of town having the shivers. Well, the censorship methods aren't universally applied ...

If the whole "channelling miho" arguement is correct, then what Kimiko is thinking or intends herself doesn't matter so much anymore. The horde's belief is what powers the story, and they have been given no indication that Kimiko has stopped being Miho. I'm not claiming this "channeling Miho" idea ...

Kimiko isn't just pretending to be Miho She isn't pretending to be Miho at all as of 1510 (and arguably wasn't doing much of a job of pretending, let alone "channeling" Miho, since the whole point was for "Miho" to be dead in the back seat of the car, not kissing Piro). Piro for his part was comple...

Wait, Yaku is going to write her new friends, so new people are going to suddenly get created? How does that work? I'm not sure which I'm more reminded of at this point, "It's a Good Life" (the actual short story, not the stupid crappy Twilight Zone versions). "It's... good that Yaku did that... :p...

OR! Or... Erika is definitely blonde... That claim has me no less confused sorry. The only color pic with Erika I could find though is this which could be argued as having a rather.. unconventional? color scheme. But for whatever that one is worth I'm not seeing Erika as any more blond than Kimiko....

"And she still has my wallet!!!" :lol: :lol: :lol: Oh man, I have many times grinned slyly and evilly at Miho's antics, but this is the first time she's made me laugh out loud. So Miho's reaction in the last panel is going to cause more problems, since what she believes is not true. Yes indeed. <thu...

Finish your thought Darrin Nah, I've already done enough My apologies HakyRyoku, I didn't mean to be koi there, let alone as rude as that is now looking in retrospect. Yes I shouldn't be repeating stuff I just said recently but I shouldn't expect others to do any legwork with respect to it either. ...

Finish your thought Darrin

Nah, I've already done enough walls-o'-text on it in relatively recent threads, to the point where it was called pedantic. If I start repeating myself on the subject it'll just cause more whaling and gnashing of teeth.

Nice! Now I'm saury that I assumed you'd go for the obvious "Fred herring". Call me stubborn, but I refuse to accept that Kimiko and Piro relationship may flounder. I'm with you buddy. I am still confident all the folks claiming "Miho and Piro love each other" will be put in their plaice as events ...

Because panels 6 and on appear to be a way for Meimi to let Largo know Yuki needs a more impressive computing device and a distraction to get out of the house. Oh my, that is... hmm... no, I honestly don't think I ever consciously made the connection that it was Meimi feeding the idea to Largo that...

Meimi is the one who snuck some food on the chair while Yuki was dashing back and forth [...] I don’t really understand how so many readers continue to misinterpret this. I'm not very good at subtle byplay :P When Yuki squishes on the food, Yuuji's the only other person in the panel. It didn't occu...

It'd be more accurate to think of Stability... I am curious as to why people think what they do about "Stability". This doesn't answer that question, but just adds one more to the pile. As far as anything being explicitly denied or confirmed...not going to happen and indeed it'd be nearly impossibl...

I remember what a blow it was when Feynman passed. In some ways this was less of a surprise given the health issues Hawking struggled with throughout his life.

But the struggles were valiant, and the achievements were magnificent.

Stabiilty already has the police, including Masamichi, for most things. But when it's not right for the cops, they farm it out That's what I've been assuming too... but is it confirmed yet explicitly in-comic? So far the only use of the term seems to be Mugi's . (Unless Ninjagrrl's in this one coun...

Or will Foul Miho cloud Yakugashi's mind with more of her malignant misdirection?

Just look how many forumites over the years have been enthralled by Miho.

Ha, it has been nearly ten years but I think I still have my robe from the initiation ceremony around here somewhere.

It's going to be an interesting conversation. At some level, Yakugashi doesn't actually have any reason to be angry at Miho. If Miho has been telling the truth the past few chapters, and really doesn't have any control over the fanboy hordes that are catastrophically obsessed with her, then presumab...

That look on Junpei’s face looks more like "I’m sorry!" than like "Oh s**t" — to me. =) Really? Now that I look at it more closely, I'd almost say he's smiling, that "eyes closed with raised eyebrows" smile one sees fairly often in manga (and MegaTokyo; only one I can think of now is this ; sorry b...

Ah ha ha ha. I gotta admit, was not that huge a Yakugashi fan at first but she is starting to grow on me. :D I am most strongly reminded of that (10th) Doctor Who episode, the hapless guy kneeling on the ground, menaced by a horrible disgusting monster that has just killed all the guy's friends, whe...

Hmm, wonder if news of Junpei refusing the termination order has already gotten out, and the order was passed to the next handy agent; or (more likely now that I think about it) the order was a general one to begin with and they don't much care who takes Miho out first. Wait, so an "analogue", which...

my attempt to render chapter 1 as an epic poem.

Wow that was quite good, thanks for linking that.

We...could just ask Fred? It’s a minor detail, not a significant plot point.

Ha, like Kirk said in Star Trek II, "You may ask, Lieutenant."
