Description: |
A narrative of self-discovery masquerading as a coming of age romance, a family composition drama, a procedural detective story, and a super-powered thriller. Sakuta Minami openly professes the many loves of her life: Matsumoto Leiji anime, her family, swimming, Magical Plastering Girl Buffalo Koteko, but the unanswered questions surrounding her mother’s separation from her natural father have nagged her all her life. Moji Shouhei, an anime geek with prodigious talent for calligraphy, holds in his gifted hands both a physical key to the roof of their high school as well as the figurative key to finally unraveling the mystery of Minami’s father. |

This was great. The translation and typesetting crew gets an A++
Hi Moodyz. Glad you enjoyed the series. There are Jehovah's witnesses (Click here for a cool video about the experience). And, yes, that IS a direct translation. No translation license.
This was such a good read, and the author's afterward section was almost as good as the entire manga. Translation was high quality as well, but are there really Jehovah's Witnesses doing door-to-door in Japan, or was that "translator's license" at work?
Thank you Tajima Rettou and One Snowshoe.
Huh, so it ended after that... I figured they were going to go on more ludicrous adventures.
Well, I'm still not entirely sure what this was all even about but I guess I did read it all and it did not make me angry so thanks.
Hi Ho Johnny. Away!!
this is honestly so good???? i like that everything's connected, and the author's using every single little thing while (lowkey) showing it. Bit by bit, but then whoop, it all came together really nicely! I seriously enjoy that!
PS. I also enjoy the super detailed translation notes A LOT! Your reasoning about Aki's gendering and stuff was interesting too!!!
The story turned surprisingly good and interesting!
It reminds me of
ShanadaHanada Shounen Shi.☆ ACE DETECTIVE
Even Mad Dog is nervous.
Vol.2, ch.11 page 3 - drunk t-rex salaryman!!
This manga started slowly and quite standard, but then it got better and better with a real atmosphere. Like Helck, the more you read, the more it grows on you. Thanks for translating this.
Pretty specific shirt...
This is SUPER good.
Only if she walked like Michael Jackson. >_>
Huh, did we suddenly switch to MobP100?
I feel like i miss moji already
I would totally translate a Magical Plastering Girl Buffalo Koteko manga should it ever exist. ;_;
we're not gonna say anything about moji being molested?
okay hayao miyazaki
