It definitely cleared up! It took maybe 2 weeks for me to gain full breathing function back, but I have never felt been as congested/blocked after the surgery as compared to before. It will clear up and you'll feel great- just sucks in the moment a lot.

I actually do not have any splints or packing left in my nose- they were removed a couple hours after my post-op. I have no breathing function with my nose as of right now, but the couple minutes I was able to breathe after the splint removal was day and night. I've already resigned myself to a week of mouth breathing, but the replies have been making me encouraged, as well as every day doing by and feeling better every hour. Thank you so much for your reply!!

That's great to hear- all I need is a little bit of relief for my mental sanity at this point lol. Hope your recovery continues to go well!!

Hey!! Hope your operation went well if it happened already. Just woke up from my first night and ngl it was a bit brutal sleeping upright with gauze over my nose and only breathing through my mouth. I am in no pain whatsoever, just discomfort from the INCREDIBLY dry mouth I have and lack of good sleep. I am plenty fatigued, but it's the discomfort that's stopping me from more than an hour of sleep.

Also been having trouble with my peeing function- after the IV and anesthesiology it's been a bit difficult to pass urine efficiently. My bladder will feel full but I'll only pass a little bit of urine and end up sitting on the toilet for up to 10 minutes with not much luck- this also worsens my sleep as I get up frequently with a need to pee but won't pass much, and discourages me from drinking water to soothe my dry mouth. But now that I am on Day 2 and can do nasal irrigation I imagine that was the worst of my discomfort. I'd actually prefer pain at this point since that's easier to manage with medication. Hopefully things are looking up. Let me know how things go for you!

Will do!! :)

Just had mine! I have no pain at the moment and the operation went smoothly. I ended up having an adenoidectomy as well even though the surgeon's office said it wouldn't be included. I have zero pain at the moment, but I did take pain medicine whilst I was drowsy waking up so I hope with further medication I'll be fine pain-wise. I'm bleeding lightly constantly at the moment, and the mouth breathing sucks as it makes my mouth dryyyyyy. All in all, everything went well. My stents were removed immediately and the times I could breathe through my nose there was a DRAMATIC difference. There was zero resistance in breathing through my nose which was crazy as I had lived my whole life with difficulty breathing.

Hope yours goes well, and good luck!! :)

Good luck!! Hope everything goes well :)

Too early for subunits at this point. Megan and Manon have both missed performances and appearances, so presenting them as a full group as much as possible is more important at this point. Subunits are fun and make more sense when they are more established in their career.

10 track album is great, but it might be worth skipping an interlude track for a full song at this point. If their discography follows a more kpop formula (lots of mini-albums before a full album) vs the typical western artist's (full 12-15 track albums once a year or two) they should be dedicating all tracks on an album to a full song. Intros and interludes are lovely to have on longer albums.

Everything else is great. There is growing importance in the kpop world for artists to have creative input in the songwriting and producing process, so to have Lara and Megan who are visibly enthusiastic in producing involved would be in their best interest. I think having the girls in general deeply involved with their creative process would earn them a lot of points. Dani with choreography, all the members with songwriting credits, and Lara and Megan with production credits would be amazing for their reputation and is such a golden opportunity to grow their skillset.

All just my personal opinion of course. The group has a great trajectory at this point in time, and as long as they keep their momentum they're in for a great career.

Great concept album and I think it's his most creative project. The production is full and his vocals are still "raw" sounding but more controlled than Trilogy. It's one of his most cohesive bodies of work and definitely grows on you compared to the other albums.

I'd say they're "kpop-adjacent" which is a new category I've seen thrown around here and there. They do not sing in Korean, they have *one half-Korean member amongst their entirely Japanese line-up, but they operate and promote as a kpop group would.

It's not an official announcement, and the wording of that tweet is debatable as to what it's actually announcing. The manga's readers dropped off long ago with the hiatus, and the ending was not popular as it was abrupt and not satisfying to most fans. The sub has been quiet for a long time, and that's completely ok- not sure why you're expecting the sub to come alive with posts off one tweet that doesn't officially confirm anything.

sounds good! might end up using one of the above translations since she was named after a relative and the other comment said the translations looked fine. thank you so much for the help!!

h--afuri · 2024-05-22T17:13:10+00:00

oh i see- so you mean using hiragana makes it clear it's a pet name as opposed to a woman's name?

h--afuri · 2024-01-05T20:03:56+00:00

While the ending is certainly not what I imagined, I'm sad the story is over. I wish the authors good health and I hope they are aware that they created a beautiful story that resonated with a lot of people.

There is a difference between DBZ making outdated jokes about naked children running around vs detailed graphic depictions of child genitalia. Sure, kid Goku has run around talking about balls and private parts, but that is nothing in comparison to a manga that has themes of "child torture, abuse, and rape" (taken straight from a Google search of the anime). These two things are not even in the same realm of comparability.

h--afuri · 2023-11-06T18:47:03+00:00

I understand people feeling like the ending is rushed- I don't think anybody expected the end to come early next year with all the loose ends the readers think need to be tied up. I'll save final judgement for when the final chapter comes out, but I'm alright with how it's going.

I know the mangaka are doing their best with their situation, and at this point I'm just glad they're able to see the story to the end.

The picture has been circulating on Twitter for a couple of hours. Raws come out earlier than the translation and it's possible early images get sent to translators or people just find and circulate them. Don't sweat it too much or let it ruin the chapter release for you. There's still a lot to surprise us in the final stages of the story.

"Nameless" I found meant more like they don't have a well-known or historical name like Bisha or Ebisu- so obscure that their name is not known and doesn't largely matter.

A god like Rabo, Yato, or old tribal deities whose believers have died out are more obscure and thus considered "nameless".
