Howdy Highrise - Croy and the Boys

Honestly it's a lot of YouTube and standing in front of a mirror/recording yourself. I know Terra Toys sells some tricks, so maybe they can help with those specifically?

She's one of them world tour mode characters

KG, Interstellar, Leroy & Lewis, Stiles Switch, and Franklin's

I ordered one from BiscuitxBamboo last year for my mother's birthday, and she really enjoyed it

I started in S2, but I'm in the same boat

Kyoko by acc highland. Hecho amano if you're way up north

I think the wings from Tiki are some of y'all's best food, and I wish I could get them elsewhere

That one also has nice coffee

Fun shop to pop into and sample a bunch of stuff

Sounds like <Nani mo Wakaranai>

Sorry I should have specified it's on the American publishers. Also crazy switch up from bashing western readers to now using France as a positive example.

Also I honestly don't care about the manga purchasing trends of various markets given that this started from me saying that over 70% of manga is slop. I'll go as far as to say this is the case in all media. How many drawings is published online? How many songs/beats are uploaded to SoundCloud or Bandcamp? How many books are printed/digitally published? How many games on steam or itch? How many are good? Manga is no different.

I'm confused. Just because a seinen series is good,does not mean all works released for the demographic are good. Again, being for adults, by adults, or about adults is not inherently positive. They can still be trash.

Now I'll agree that seinen don't get as many releases in the west, but that's not on the readers. That's on the publishing companies. And even then I'm not sure I can blame the company for not taking risks on series. The top selling manga of last year are mostly the type of stuff you're bashing the west for liking.

I disagree with the idea that being seinen or being about more grounded professions is inherently a positive. The work can still be ass.

Also your whole "the western mind cannot comprehend" mindset is real weird

70% might be generous ngl. It's higher imo

Haachama?!

For coffee I think your options are Houndstooth, Medici, and Turnstile. They all do a solid enough job

After this I think I'll just wait for it to be finished. The release cycle plus how little happens chapter to chapter has made me lose interest

A little late, but I think I got bored

I think in Austin your choices are Dave & Busters or Main Event. Personally if I'm going to grind away at an arcade for prizes, I'm going to Round 1 in San Antonio

Alternatively go all the way and get a Vitamix with the aerating pitcher (I'm not sure if this is still what they use to whip their cold foam)

I really enjoyed it! It's a bit funky that it's separated the way it is. As for recommendations I'd go with Kunon the Sorcerer Can See, The Conqueror From a Dying Kingdom, and How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom. I feel these scratch similar itches depending on what you really enjoy about Bookworm
