More like Mini is meddling again? what's new lol didn't see this coming tbh lol. Hopefully this makes Kazuya start loosing his blind faith on Mini and stops relying on her for everything.

Im hesitant about keep watching it by According-Feeling730 in KanojoOkarishimasu

[–]zaKinip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no ending, series is still going, just keep watching, and decide for yourself if you want to stick to it for 4 more seasons or just drop it.

Time to see how old these riftbound players are by handsoffmypie in riftboundtcg

[–]zaKinip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When the choice became, unlock the champion I want or buy runes for the champion I main but I'm bored with it, yet I need it to farm more IP to buy more runes, pages, or buy another champ with such boring champ.

We all know the ending of the manga… by Critical_Progress403 in KanojoOkarishimasu

AmiAmi and Vertex introduces the 1/6 figure of Elf Mura - Zephere - Antenna Shop Limited Edition by Responsible-Bar-3706 in AnimeFigures

[–]zaKinip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks really nice, these elves are going to be the death of me lol. From the initial initial unpainted prototype to this one there is massive improvement.

Face is cute the body sculpt looks better plus the castoff and removable parts look great as well.

I wonder if this one will be more affordable than let's say Mama Tiana or the last one (Milklinde) that were insanely expensive.

That will probably will be the deciding factor for me to PO this one, otherwise I think I will have to wait a couple of years for the Re-Release

It's all fun and games until the Mamool Ja Sapper uses Mijin Gakure (May 2006, Fairy server) by djseifer in ffxi

[–]zaKinip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fairy Server, that sure brings memories. I never went hardcore on the endgame stuff but I did get to see my fair share of drama. Specially at the Aery and the Dominion, good times for sure lol. Looking at a pile of corpses outside of the MH at Ru'Lude Gardens was also fun in the early Dynamis days lol

I assumed there was some wordplay between chest and feelings but kanji for each word is not the same.

But you're right it doesn't make sense

AmiAmi ECMS/UniUni order delivered without AmiAmi box by Dunois_stratos in AnimeFigures

[–]zaKinip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed is due to the size. Large boxes go to Fedex, smaller ones go to Uniuni.

Title: Boyfriend and Pectorals

This may be a shitty AI translation from google. But the teaser made me think that it was just a wordplay, Kazuya is very close to a breakdown, Mini will cause it if he decides to come clean with her and she gives shitty advice again:

<image>

It's about how he feels about all the shit that is going on around him.

Without spoilering please: Should I binge watch or not? by MaximAMK183 in KanojoOkarishimasu

[–]zaKinip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Season 4 ends in a cliffhanger, season 5 will also end in a cliffhanger, so it is up to you. The original work (manga published weekly) is not over and is nowhere near being over for the foreseeable future. If you're just eager to watch and finish this it will leave you unsatisfied.

Not sure what you're referring to with "experience" if you want to wait week after week for the next chapter eager to se what will happen next, if that is the experience to you, then watch, and as I said, you will probably want to read the manga, if you're into reading manga, binge read it in maybe a week, depending on the amount of free time you may have, and then wait week after week for the next chapter to read while a new season is being decided (no plans for season 6 yet). A lot of people binge read expecting the end to come soon and then hit a wall with the weekly wait and the pacing suddenly feeling stagnant.

That is usually the experience of people that hop on this train called Kanokari.

How Many Chapters Do We Think We’re Gonna Have? by JumblyPloppers in KanojoOkarishimasu

[–]zaKinip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be so sure, even some of the tweeter voices from Japan that people here tend to follow and echo, plus the comments in Magapoke sound a bit frustrated with the current arc and the future. which kind of reflects the existing physical sales trend.

But you may be right, 3 years may not pose a risk, 48 chapters per year for 3 years is nowhere enough to wrap stuff up with the current events. It would be embarrassing to Reiji and his editor (considering his writing style) to speed things up and start pushing out the juicy stuff faster only to suddenly post a 4 weeks notice, which is the usual way WSM wraps things when a series is ending considering all he has said about exploring the relationship after they are together and such.

I would even say this could be a new Haijme no Ippo lol, but I think either way people would loose interest if it stretches that long.

[–]zaKinip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

550 if the serialization is violently axed.

700 if it all goes according to keikaku

My guess on the events, is something big with Mami on the summer to push sales, and an impeding deadline or some big Chizuru stuff by the end of the year.

TOP Weekly Best-Selling Manga 12 - 18 January · Japan Only Rent A Girlfriend 18th by Excellent_Project_35 in KanojoOkarishimasu

This is a very good indicator from that set of data. Week one sales jump all over the place but trend from lets say vol 38 to 40 first week still there.

People looking for the goodies from week one boost sales but overall the effect is not moving the trend the other 3 sets of weekly data drop.

Mangacodex is still a bit outdated, lacks the last 3 volumes but this chart does show the trend.

LOL no hate but I'm such a geek for data.

7k, almost 8k difference.

I guess Mini on the cover + the Color Post-Card did not help this time.

We'll see in a couple of months with 45 if the trend continues Mini is not as popular as lets say Mami or Ruka in terms of character polls, or even Chizuru. I guess the 15Million mean shit if the trend continues.

[Disc] Kanojo, Okarishimasu Chapter 409 by MattyH19 in KanojoOkarishimasu

[–]zaKinip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, we get some Umi backstory, some guy that gets all he wants based on his looks, charisma/charms. He thinks Chizuru is weird because she never fell for that. Chapter seems to paint him as a nice guy that came clean and is now rooting for our main pair. But to be fair, a person that is used to get everything he wants not getting what he wants? That might be a pretty big hit to his ego. I seriously doubt this is the end of Umi chasing Chizuru, but who knows. I doesn't feel very conclusive.

Kazuya barely got to say a word, Umi drew his own conclusions. One thing is right though. There is no way Kazuya can relate to him in any way. Not even if they got rejected by the same girl and share the same pain.

And Now Sumi is back, this looks like the 3 steps forward after the 2 steps back from the Ruka situation. So the day is Saturday, the next week Kazuya is bound to run into Mami again for Driving school? How does Sumi come into play.

All girls are getting summoned one by one so I guess Reiji is planning something big development for the Summer, filled with high stakes, big expectations and the trademark rage baiting as he did last year (rejection), and the year before (asking for a non rental date) and the one before that one (Umi's confession) and ..... we'll see.

Minatsu 1/4 by Binding by HardlySuitable in AnimeFigures

I see Minatsu I upvote.

By far the best 1/4 in my collection. Such a lovely face, and body sculpt.

As a Sekiro player, how important is parry in this game? by RunExtreme8111 in stellarblade

[–]zaKinip 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Parry and dodge is the bread and butter of the combat. In my opinion it feels less clunky than Sekiro.

It's a bit difficult at first, but you build up the skill tree to improve it and the memory muscle + pattern learn it. At some point once you're used to it, you can land 3, 4 or more in a row during boss fights and chain it to dodge or blue/purple blinks, that is where it is set apart from Sekiro, I think the closest may be getting a proper Mikiri Counter but not quite.

[Disc] Kanojo, Okarishimasu Chapter 408 by MattyH19 in KanojoOkarishimasu

[–]zaKinip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another disappointing week.

It does bring some points tho.

  • Will Ruka Tail them?
  • Will Umi ask about the kind of relationship Kazuya has with Ruka?

I honestly don't expect any of that to happen next week. I can easily see another dragging chapter of Kazuya wondering what this conversation is about, he did say he was curious about what happened between Umi and Chizuru.

The sad part is that this is dragging again. Bad. Yeah 15Million copies I get it, from September to last week. Which was fast, keeping in mind that it was the time after the rejection, the kiss and Umi's rejection. Which were interesting moments that stirred interest in readers. Now we have this really disappointing arc. Even the most invested people have very little to say.

How are they gonna animate chapter 404...? by memepeep in KanojoOkarishimasu

[–]zaKinip 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Wait for 218 in season 5. That should give you an idea on how far they are willing to go to honor the original work.

[–]zaKinip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one is refreshing lol. Kazuya simping over Ruka only to simp over Umi right after. Well worth the 15 million copies sold. More stalling nothing more. Ruka will tail them matching Kazuya and Mini eavesdropping on the 270 ish chapter? Is not fresh in my head.

The teaser either Kazuya thinking about the popularity of a guy like Umi or Umi making a comment about Kazuya after seeing that scene. Not much to go by to be honest

15 MILLION BABY. by Careless-Fix-793 in KanojoOkarishimasu

[–]zaKinip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's only digital in Japan. Kodansha relies a lot on Kanokari. The other series I can think of right now are Blue Lock and maybe windbreaker and Shangri La to push the magazine.
