[image] ChristopherFritz: One question I’ve encountered in the past is why I would (want to) consume material in Japanese when there’s an English counterpart available. ▶ Just edited to put this in here since it got long and I wrote it while I was tired and it easily could be misinterpreted(so…

Btw, do you guys have any tips on how to read the manga without registering the furigana? I feel that whenever I read a manga in Japanese, I always get what the general gist is about, but don’t even realize where unknown words or difficult grammar is hiding. Kanji are just skipped with furigana (as…

Q (P10): How do 終了 and 終わり differ? Their direct meaning seems to be . I’d say 終わり Q (P11): Hase says 俺と友達になってください … as far as I know the context of と it means ? In my head the literal translation is something like which sounds really funky and wrong. Is there another rule regarding the use of と? …

[image] ChristopherFritz: This can be difficult to read for anyone reading the digital release. The print version isn’t much better. I wish I knew why they print tankobon so much smaller than the magazines. [image] mangakania: On page 5, they make a differentiation between 机 and 教卓 … is …
