Saihate no Paladin
this is some good writing. even if that exposition took me three tries to get through. ch 24 -- HANDS DOWN my fave isekai - the writing is SO GOOD WTF. and im not a religious person at all but the way its done here does the whole sentiment/purpose of religion a lot of justice (also menel and will better stay the bestest friends throughout this series cus they really got me in my feels with this ch)
Blue Period.
as someone stagnating in my passion for life or art, this is really making me reevaluate myself. i appreciate it.

She likes Homos, Not me
i see a lot of mixed (mostly negative) reviews of this -- i think while it does have a lot of problematic themes, they're generally addressed within the manga (or the novel) as problematic (like makoto lusting after his son) -- i don't think miura necessarily "forced" jun to kiss her, like with freddie and mary, jun is said to be in love with her but not sexually attracted to her (which makes him a biromantic homosexual) and that's a real and valid thing -- these among other things are touched upon, but i imagine are more clarified in the novel to make them more understandable and maybe sensitive -- the author himself said that he didn't write this to reflect society/make social commentary, but to reflect people and i think if that was it's purpose, it was fairly successful -- i don't hate it or love it, which is better than i was expecting with all of these themes so i think it surprised me in that way at least
