Loved the latest chapter, and as it was said, having them mimic what their manga was going to be like was brilliant. I enjoyed how everything was woven together perfectly here (minus the Shizuka part, dunno what that`s going to lead to yet.) Also,I have to say I honestly laughed a lot, good amount of reaction shots here (examples being the `Which store is it!?" and Kaya's throughout the whole thing.) Also, I found the small Kaya prank very amusing too (reversing the books).
As always, can't wait for more of this written gold. P.S. Kaya rules, love her more and more with every chapter. Hard to believe how much time has passed in the manga since the start and how much has happened. ESPECIALLY since it's only been 84 chapters. I love the pacing and time flow, more manga needs to pick that up. |

I was also wondering what they replaced Kaya's gift with. I must say, Mashiro's gift for Miho was incredibly sweet.
Very pleased with the manga they came up with, it's already 100 times better than Tanto. I didn't expect it to be that kind of manga, and even though the story sounded very trivial at first, there are a lot of ways to make it more exciting and serious if they want to. They've got their hit right there.

For some reason, the new manga sounds to me like the opposite of Trap.
But yeah, finally the duo are back playing to their strengths. Though it still remains to be seen if it'll work...

IMO the idea is actually something in between the mainstream and non-mainstream making it a kind of "make your cake and eat it too" type of thing for our the heroes. It's different from mainstream SJ titles but not so different that it couldn't click w/ most current SJ readers and it's something the boys seem to truly enjoy making too... |

Probably the chapter I enjoyed the most in the entire series. They're definitely much more into this manga than they've ever been for any other. The fact that they came up with this manga by stalking Hattori and then getting inspirations from minor pranks they pull on their own is a pretty significant sign that this kind of story is definitely the sort of thing they're suited for. I think this will seriously blow away readers, both real and ficitional (if you know what I mean), and I can't wait to see what will happen next week.

The chapter was good, as expected of the series, the best time would be when they make it big. I'm glad that Shujin is still getting tired like before, it would have been really weird if he did the names fast because of the real-life experience helping him with it...detail's important after all. |

Pretty cool chapter. I enjoyed seeing a bit of Perfect crime club, it vaguely reminds of the beginning of Onani master Kurosawa. Also, the heroine looks pretty cute.
I was amused that True Human's author going to a cabaret had a very positive result on his manga. Yet another proof that you can find inspiration everywhere Yeah, I'm sure he enjoys being able to write whatever concept goes through his head. Having a poll at the end of the manga asking which manga-inside-the-manga the readers liked the most would be interesting.

I will be perfectly honset though, Perfect Crime Club didn't seem super interesting to me. Sure, it was good, but not as good as they were making it out to be. Maybe once I know more about it, but from the pages I saw today, it wouln't be my type of manga. |
