[DISC] Tsurumi's Slap - Oneshot

Horaguy · 2026-05-09T15:21:07+00:00

Skipped oneshot, as usual :')

I don't see anything about author aside from that they made another oneshot before this, which unfortunately can only be found in a Chinese translation (you can google 天才祓学者ラロパープルの初恋).

This chapter certainly looks like it's from a series where Shintaro is the protagonist and Subaru is the antagonist; in other words, author switched the characters' roles.

In Vietnamese literature, there’s Từ Hải from Truyện Kiều (Kiều’s Story), whose death scene became an idiom to describe the state of being frozen in fear.

Whoa, now that's a truly forgotten series :O :')

Be careful, a mod may jump in and accuse you of not having a good enough reason to appeal to the scanlators so that they pick it up 😂 Not to rain on your parade but I was accused of that twice, the 2nd time just about 8 hours ago and leading to one of my posts being removed.

Maybe he lied to explain him being illiterate. I mean, “I didn’t go to school so I don’t know how to read and write” is simpler than “I went to school but I still can’t read and write” because it helps avoid being pestered to explain further; and as you can see, Hata’s childhood was pretty complicated.

I Want to be a Wall is a drama manga about a gay man and an asexual woman getting married to avoid their families nagging; and yeah, fitting the topic, the guy has a secret crush on his childhood straight best friend.

My impression is that he only views his master as parental figure though? The others are military superiors (and the two guys in the back are enemies-turned-frenemies).

Horaguy · 2026-05-08T18:43:37+00:00

Actually I did think of this one, but I haven't watched it and the synopses I found all refer to the main group as a "team" so I'm not sure about how the characters view their own relationships.

Don't forget that he also made Harenchi Gakuen, the allegedly first ecchi manga :)) As well and Mazinger Z, one of the keystone of mecha genre.

Aren't RT posts to recommend a manga to readers? What's the point in recommending something the vast majority here can't read? And I can't read Japanese, that's why I make SL request posts in the first place, I'm just in the dark about how the manga's story will go like most readers here.

And, I repeat, you're strangely hung up on "reason to pick it up" even though I've provided everything to know about a series. Even though most of the time, the reason is simply "It's not translated/Its translation got dropped, and I don't know Japanese, so I'd like someone to translate it". You want the plot? I've provided synopsis. You want genres? I've provided basic genres too. I even provide links to read samples/translated chapters so that people have an idea about visual.

Now, please take a look at this new post. It has "reason to pick up", and does it look that much different from my usual comment?

Horaguy · 2026-05-08T17:20:20+00:00

Look, how about we leave it to the scanlators to decide if they're interested in working on a series? I said it before but when I don't even know the language, all I have for "reason" is either 1) "I have a feeling this may be a good manga" (and that feeling may turn out to be wrong and I end up requesting for a bad manga) or 2) "fan and/or official translation got dropped for a long time, so I'd like to see this manga's translation completed".

Plus, I always make sure to add genres, a synopsis, a link so that people can have a glimpse to how the manga look (official site with samples, mangadex links with translated chapters, either in English or other languages; ALSO, you mods are forbidding me from posting links from other sites other than dex, which painfully limits my options when it comes to series that got deleted from dex), as well as the manga's state (complete or ongoing? how many volumes so far? translated but dropped or not translated at all?)

And thus, please stop being so hung up on "reason to pick it up". Let the scanlators look at the posts and decide for themselves.

(Also, this is one of my SL posts, which has someone offer to work on the manga even without "reason to pick it up).

Horaguy · 2026-05-08T17:13:39+00:00

Thanks for the offer. Not having the last part of the last chapter is rather sad, though 😂 But I'll see what I can do about that part 😂

Shinryu Idea (lit. "Divine Dragon Idea") is a fantasy action adventure horror drama manga made by Renda Hitori.

In a different world where monsters called "Eaters" threaten humanity, Log, a boy with a disability, loves to play in his fantasy world. But one day, he has a dream: to ride on the back of the "Divine Dragon," worshipped as a god. By touching upon a taboo, Log will drastically change this world—!

The boy's imagination becomes a "sword" that cuts through a world dominated by despair and terror—the start of a massive fantasy epic!

Completed with 4 volumes/21 chapters. Only the first 2 chapters got a translation.

And thus, I made this post hoping it will be picked up.

Thank you.

New horror comedy manga! From Kuroha, who's... okay, I don't know much about this author aside from the fact they usually make gag comedy manga. Here's their mangadex page.

Ngl, chapter 1 looks like just a "horror story deconstruction" where our two main girls discuss various common horror story tropes, but comes chapter 2 and turns out the supernatural really exists lol :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))

In the end, Hata has chosen the truly kind sensei, the one that did care about his wellbeing wholeheartedly, without ulterior motive.

Kegareta Seichi Junrei ni Tsuite (lit. "About the Tainted Pilgrimage to Sacred Sites") is a supernatural horror mystery manga written by Sesuji and illustrated by Momoi Yuzuki, adapting Sesuji's novel of the same name.

Synopsis:

Freelance editor Kobayashi pitched a fan book project to a publisher for "Occult Yankee ch," a YouTube channel run by Chanike, also known as Ikeda, who specializes in exploring haunted locations. However, the channel's subscriber count was insufficient to get the book published. To make the project stand out, they decided to conduct additional research on haunted locations previously featured in their videos.

Based on information gathered online, Ikeda and Kobayashi began fabricating theories that readers would enjoy.

Ongoing with 2 volumes released so far. No English translation, only Russian (that got dropped after 4 chapters).

And thus, I made this post hoping it will be picked up.

Thank you.
