New chapter here.

With new character Seo's??? brother. Who's just as oblivious as she is. So gotta be Seo's brother.

Didn't join this thread until now, but yeah. It says "RYOSUKE SEO" on the name tag of his uniform.

Too bad he's a sub-character and won't show up that often. But if he's used as well as Mayu is, I won't mind.

This episode is a good reminder that Nozaki is like a foot and a half taller than Sakura. She's basically a hobbit.

Nozaki is like 6'3" and Sakura is like 4'9". Hell of a height difference.

Lately, boxes have been really popular with us!

I love it whenever the show focuses on the production of Let's Love. It's actually educational.

Seriously, how did Nozaki even get a job?

God I'm so happy the box chapter finally got animated. Probably one of my top 5 chapters. I, too, love this series (even more than usual) whenever it's about Nozaki and co. working on his manga.

I can understand how Ken manages to keep Nozaki from going out of control, but I wonder how the gently caress Nozaki managed to stay serialized while working with Maeno, given how inept that he is himself in certain areas.

Well, most of what they're poking fun at is present in published manga, so...

I assume the joke is that Nozaki's manga is actually terrible and derivative. Sakura's art is leagues ahead of his.

She's good at drawing what she sees in front of her so she's better than Nozaki, but maybe TOO good...

Her art is 'better', but it's not better shojo manga art. Which is the thing. He is kind of ridiculous in his process, but everything he does really is suited to making shojo manga. He does have flaws as an artist, but that's why he [And most other writers] has a team. The number of people who can do everything themselves, well, and make a schedule? Is vanishingly low in the manga world. Most people need a team, and it's still a ton of work. He actually seems to be pretty popular. Not like topping the charts popular, but his work seems to be well liked.

Kashima and Hori are the best couple.

And speaking of sound effects, even if it's just a generic sound effect used in tons of shows, the poot sound that is used occasionally always makes me laugh.

They're talking about and showing the editors occasionally, were they actually introduced in the show aside from that post-credits scene of Nozaki cleaning his room? I might have missed an episode.

Yeah, the episode after that scene features Ken, Maeno, and the lady who currently has Maeno for an editor.

I understand the winner, I don't understand how Hori was the runner up. He's literally just there to make Kashima funnier.



This, however, I understand completely.

I am glad that TOMODAAAAAAAAAA got his justice. Though Maeno ranking above him is unforgivable. After all Tomoda did for them.

Gimmicky, once-off side characters usually make it into popularity polls because a bunch of people decide it'd be funny to remind the fanbase of their existence. Bonus points if they end up higher on the chart than actual recurring characters.

A significant portion of the audience is female, and you can't underestimate the power of their BL vibe.

Also, Kashima has her puppycute moments when she isn't being an utter moron. Image from the latest chapter:

Is there any way to interpret that picture nonsexually? I'm struggling to come up with the scenario that ended with them on a bed and Hori's hand on Kashima's rear as he readies himself to bite her leg. I'm thinking tragi-romantic zombie play.
