Has the author of "the Dragon's seven adorable children" done any other works? I can swear I know there is another manga out there with a similar body style and face style as that author except this one is about a dungeon and cooking.
You should also read her anthology of short stories Terrarium in Drawer. This lady is rapidly becoming my favorite manga author with her gentle stories and great characters.

She does more with 3 pages than some authors do in chapters.

I'm trying to find a surreal manga that I'm pretty sure was recommended in this thread.

It was a collection of short school stories with magical realism, like a nervous girl who retreated into a cocoon, or a girl who shattered into hundreds of tiny versions of herself. There was a girl whose hair and clothes changed pattern depending on how she felt about someone. Googling has not helped me one bit.

No, although I'll check that out!

This is totally it. Much appreciated!

I'm trying to remember the name of a manga posted here. It was a slice of life about a blond servant girl who magically doubled for a wizard girl whose skin was stained charcoal-black. There was a gothic castle and a whole society of red-clad shadow-people, each with a human-looking double. I thought it had a neat esthetic, but I can't find any combination of search terms to find it again.

drat that was fast. Much appreciated!

EDIT: I love the esthetic. It reminds me of the Girl From The Other Side.

Bakarina isn't really the same thing, but it kinda is? 'Villainess slow prison life' reminded me of it anyway.

Girl gets reincarnated as the villain of an otome game and realizes that all the endings she played end up with this character getting killed or exiled, so starts furiously trying to avoid the destruction flags from the game, at the same time basically inverting the plot and gathering a reverse-harem in the process. She's denser than a neutron star and never really twigs to exactly how far off the rails things are going (When she meets the otome protagonist she's always curiously wondering what route she's on and can't figure out that all the routes in game are into HER instead)
Bakarina has a similar tone to Nozaki, full of genre geniuses smugly congratulating themselves for all the wrong insights.


I'm looking forward to the anime next year.

I don't think he's actually dead, as Imitation Crystal tends not to kill any of their cast. I do think he's going to spend some time in hospital. Poor messed up guy.

Wait, are people bailing on the thread/forums or are we expecting a forums shutdown?

Shadows House 102.

Some interesting answers here.
I suspect Emilyko/Real Kate was sent from another community as a saboteur. Shadow Kate seemed to be born with a deep distrust of the House no one else shared; I think she inherited her suspicions from Real Kate.

...what other skills has Emilyko forgotten she has?

Emilico's origin certainly fits.

I don't think the pregnancy took fifty years, I think it's Kate who is fifty years old. Unless the current Kate is a descendant of this one.

Has Imitation Crystal been up to anything since Game Club ended? I've always enjoyed her weird work.

Girl from the other side:
I feel like I was still vague on what actually happened and how it resolved. I was hoping for a solution that involved people and not mysteobabble. Still gorgeously and movingly illustrated though!

At least someone has started translating it again!! The first chapter got posted almost three years ago, and I've been waiting ever since.
