A comedy in the vein of:
"I cannot let my patients die, so I turned this hit and run victim into a caterpillar body to metamorphize back to normal! Who eats people!"
"You monster! How could you do such a thing!?"
"But she lived though!"

Thanks for the recs, yall. I've read about half of these and liked most of them so I've got high hopes for the other half!

My goodness. He even has all of his former rivals cheering him on in the background. This level of shonen, can it be contained?

You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!

Shiva's backstory and circle of friends is slathered in 12 different flavors of cheese, but even though it feels the weakest of all the fighters' flashbacks so far, it's charming enough that I'd probably root for him were he not the antagonist.

Sora Ni Mairu / Confronting S.

5 chapters in it started going in a direction I didn't expect.

quote:

Sora Hiyodori, a housewife who's oddly familiar with machines and programming, went on a trip through space to deliver the ashes of her husband who passed away from illness to her mother-in-law. Accompanying her is her son Chuujirou, a robot installed with an AI.

the matter-of-factness of that example image with it being sci-fi but with a certain current-era mundanity to it really gives me Oh, My Sweet Alien vibes. Definitely adding it to the to-read list.

This is a good one. Although I'm very curious how one manages to accomplish this with human vocal cords?

I'm in the mood for some body horror/monster recs. Doesn't necessarily have to be good or even scary really (though those are definitely a plus), I just want stuff with cool spooky designs to read through for spookmonth.

A little late to reply but I've been enjoying Urasekai Picnic. Like the Strugatsky brothers' work which inspired the name / Tartovsky's Stalker, it's never directly horror but rather alien, unknown, and spooky. Also has some great body horror moments. If you want to see Anime Girls Exploring the Zone this will be your jam.

Seems like it'll be revealed at some pointer later given it's part of what the engineers are marveling at, but to speculate wildly, she could have some kind of cyborg widget in her throat. Actually I'm wondering if her hand-over-neck pose in the third panel is a signal.

Just shows that their people must be millenials or gen z. Wanting to die is fairly normal.

The thing I find most interesting about this fight is that the human is the gigantic mass of raw strength and the god has to rely on his experience and skill to put up a fight. I'm waiting with bated breath over what other tricks Shiva will pull out of his pants.
