MINE MAKES YOU HAPPY

Goddamn, not only is Miyoshi a hottie, she can really pack a punch. Sometimes I envy Shujin for being Shujin. I wonder if Miyoshi shops at the same place Hirano Aya does…
Anyways, the dynamic duo sets their sights on mainstream manga, a ballsy move on their part. I myself would’ve thought a cult manga would be ideal, but it’s kinda true that it’d be more popular with mainstream titles. Still, with mainstreaming, that might have to meet a whole lot of expectations. You can tell from today’s Japanese manga that a lot of mainstream titles are still popular, but the quality doesn’t appear all too great as of late. Still, it’s quite the interesting move, and even Eiji’s not listening to his editor. Mangaka of the Rebellion?!

Man, the new name is not good. It’s not bad either but it is pretty plain and, like Saiko said, overdone. If they really want to get into mainstream then they’ll have to do better than that. The end of the chapter is pretty crazy though and I couldn’t help but laugh at how Saiko and Shujin along with Eiji had their editors going “WTF” at their latest stuff. Oh, and Miyoshi is awesome. I really like the mood she brings into the series.
