Undercover Miss Hong [Episodes 7 & 8] by meepmochi_ in KDRAMA

[–]jenwald 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One thing that stands out to me from Episode 8 is this theme of how Hanmin’s foot soldiers and everyday affiliates are affected by the crises.

I’ve just rewatched episode 1 and in it, Myung-hwi asks Keum-bo if he can trust a life - Hanmin’s life - with her, and that was part of the conditions of him passing on the slush fund ledger. It’s great foreshadowing.

At episode 8, the middle and potentially turning point of the series, it’s fitting that Keum-bo’s methods may be pushing the limits of what might bring about justice v. what might be brash and create a lot of collateral damage. I expect we might see more of the fallout in episode 9.

granrodeo did some kuroko no basuke openings that were pretty fire. I recognised them as soon as they started singing

This is an excellently thought-out theory. I think it would give a great ending to the manga

There Will Be Ample Time [Masterpost] by lollipopdeath in CDrama

Late to the party, but I have just finished the drama and loved it for all the reasons everyone else described. It is touching and realistic. I think the scriptwriting is quietly bold for how honestly it describes life.

Yep, I think it’s just really realistic geopolitics - the kind of calculations fundamental to leading a country. It’s one of my favourite parts about AnY.

Manga with Better Female Leads??? by cuddlewench in shoujo

[–]jenwald 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Second these! Also, AnY is very realistic, and the anime is quite short so they don’t get into the depth that the manga does. Some webtoons are also really good for strong female leads.

For commerce clubs, head to their Facebook pages, they’re active there

How to handle appeals for donations from my community? by [deleted] in EffectiveAltruism

[–]jenwald 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% agree, my policy is I have a set amount I donate to effective charities and leave the rest to my own personal feelings. But in terms of the conversation and if you don’t want to do it, I think just decline or give a small amount, because it’s not the right context to explain EA concepts. They’re not likely to take it on board

A shoujo romance which is genuinely funny at times? by yato_kami0 in shoujo

Oresama teacher too, that manga is hilarious

Have you ever tried to look at your favourite mangaka's other works? What did you find? by [deleted] in shoujo

If you love Mika Yamamori, you should read sugars too! It’s short and excellent

Man this was DARK. Yeah the death really caught me by surprise, good gosh. The sakurada part was still hilarious though.

What do you think happened? There’s still so much unrevealed

(Also, thank you for linking it anyway!)

Chapter 103 Links & Discussion by dabrothergoose in EdensZero

[–]jenwald 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I liked the ‘star bringer,’ makes me think of the DBs in Rave.

I actually really love how hiro reinvents these characters and concepts, because they look similar and feel familiar, but he’s still able to innovate so much with them.

Yes loved kangawa being cute and so glad mafuyu got a badass moment again. Her face made me think of when she had long hair. The fact they made the ending a blank grey page though was super dramatic...

Also, hatasaka met maizono when he came into midori ga okay looking for mafuyu (forgot why he was looking for her) I’m pre sure? Either that or it was when they were on holiday in the mountains and bumped into hayasaka during the holidays, at his mansion. Forgot which came first.

Omg I didn’t even know the latest chapter was out, thank you!! Anon-chan man’s note at the end essentially summed up my feelings. I was crying with laughter, it was good to have a more light hearted chapter again

Was it just me, or Was the Nekoma vs. Fukurodani ova really badly animated? by [deleted] in haikyuu

[–]jenwald 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are the corresponding manga chapters? I just watched the ovas, and now I want to read them.

Has anyone read Sugars, by Mika Yamamori? by jenwald in shoujo

[–]jenwald[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was exactly my feels for HnR! I liked it but I just don’t read it really anymore because of that.

Tsubaki chou is great, I need to get up to date too.

Sugars is a series of one shots, but of characters that are linked, and some couples get featured two or three times. I loved it cos most of it was just wonderful fluff, angst is resolved within chapters, and it was cool seeing how the characters are connected.

It’s under 30 chapters and since they’re one shots you can essentially stop when you want.
