I'VE GOTTEN MY COMPUTER TO STOP OVERHEATING AND BEING A GENERAL DICK

PEOPLE, TELL ME WHAT DATE LOGS I STILL NEED TO SET UP

/GOES TO SET UP CONCERT LOG WHILE I'M AT IT

ALTERNATIVELY, RECOMMEND MANGO, AS A CHANGE OF PACE FROM COMICS

I recommend:


Monster (A DOCTOR HUNTS A SOCIOPATH HE SAVED FROM DEATH WHEN SAID SOCIOPATH WAS A CHILD; EVERYONE GETS TO REGRET IT)

Billy Bat (MINDFUCKERY AND AN ANCIENT CONSPIRACY/GROUP, WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER BEING SOME SCHMUCK WHO'S JUST WORRIED ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT HE PLAGIARIZED A JAPANESE COMIC)

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (HYPER KARATE BETWEEN SUPER BUFF AND SUPER FABULOUS DUDES -Part 1 is slow to get going but is AWESOME when it does, Part 2 is the best, Part 3 is the most well known, and from there on, well, you probably should start from the earlier parts, really)

Dorohedoro (SUPERVIOLENT ROMANCE MURDER CUTENESS HILARITY, IT IS FUCKING HARD TO DEFINE)

Blue Heaven, Jiraishin, Tetsuwan Girl (BASICALLY ANYTHING BY TAKAHASHI TSUTOMU, TRUST ME)

BLAME! (NEAR INCOMPREHENSIBLE PLOT MADE MORE INCOMPREHENSIBLE BY ALMOST TOTAL LACK OF DIALOG, MADE TOTALLY AWESOME BY THE ART)

Kaiji (THIS REALLY FITS MORE UNDER ANIMU - SUPER DEPRESSING GAMBLING CHALLENGES TO GET OUT OF CRUSHING DEBT)

Akagi (ALSO ANIMU -CRAZY MAHJONG GAMBLING BY DEMON TEENAGER WHO DRIVES CARS OVER CLIFFS)

Liar Game (MORE LIGHT HEARTED GAMBLING CHALLENGES TO GET OUT OF CRUSHING DEBT)

Franken Fran (LIKE THE TWILIGHT ZONE, BUT WITH A MORALLY CHALLENGED ADORABLE FRANKENSTEIN GIRL SURGEON WHO HAS REALLY TWISTED IDEAS OF SOLUTIONS TO THE PROBLEMS PRESENTED TO HER)

BioMeat: Nectar (WORLD HUNGER IS CURED BY TINY CREATURES THAT ARE EASILY MADE AND EAT JUST ABOUT ANYTHING; CLEARLY NOTHING CAN GO WRONG WITH THIS)

Maka Maka (THE ONLY LESBIAN SMUT YOU CAN PROBABLY FIND THAT HAS HEART, WARMTH, AND ACTUALLY ACCURATELY DEPICTED SEX, BEING A MESH OF AWKWARD AND FUNNY)

I AM GOING TO GIVE THE SHIFT KEY A REST FOR NOW

HAHAHAH PRETTY MUCH. It teased me with all of its curves and PUBIC HAIR and just general sexiness, but the problematic underlying text of it all bothered me, just because I'm like okay it's realistic that stuff like this happens esp. culturally but JUST GIVE ME A LEGIT RELATIONSHIP CHRIST

Aoi Hana is pretty good at addressing these issues but it's so slice-of-lifey it might bore half of people to death while melting the other halfs hearts idk

Western TV has a pretty shitty record with their crazy/psychotic lesbians and bi girls and let us not forget when a character comes out it's usually all about the straight characters, and their ~struggle~ to deal with it or their white knighting and back patting because they are totally kewl with it

and then the gay/bi character just disappears after they come out because they aren't needed anymore now that they helped het-chan on his/her journey to tolerance
