Is smoking cool again?
>>
what's the appeal of femdom?

No, it's actually pretty hot

Is there a higher quality source for the translated later chapters asides mangakatalot? Those look really low res.
Once I get up to chapter 29 I was going to read a different website, download the images for the later chapters and upload them to mangadex.
>>
>>269068876
From an artistic standpoint, smoking is inherently cool, it offers a unique lighting source (Not that many scenarios where you have a warm, dim light so close to the face) and the smoke itself adds visual flare. Not anime, but it's part of why this scene from Death Stranding works so well

Remember kids, smoking is good for you.

>>269068876
Yeah, smoking is cool but smoking in Japan is the absolute worst. The back of that supermarket is truly a haven for the smokers in the manga, so the nuances of their dynamics can only be appreciated if you visit Japan as a smoker or any highly regulated place.

You can't help but feel like a criminal all the time, and while sightseeing you're forced to make a mental note of smoking areas and make very long detours just to light a fag.
Akihabara has anti smoking patrols and you have to go to IQoS sponsored booths which reek.
In malls and stations the designated areas are full of salarymen, the ashtrays are hardly ever clean, the walls are stained beyond repair, very little ventilation so it's super easy to get light headed.
Smoking in the street is highly frowned upon but you do it anyway. The open areas in parks or near stations are choke full of people and Chinese tourists.

lmao, serves you guys right to be honest, not everyone (especially kids or growing teens) need the poisonous chemicals in their lungs when they are walking around in public.

You just don't know how bad they are to others around you because you don't care, nothing wrong with it if you mind your own business with smoking but it still gets on non-smoker's nerves usually after a while. Especially if you smoke indoors that shit stink is hard to get rid off.

Surely car exhausts and stove or kitchen vents release more toxic chemicals into the air.
Waste is incinerated close to urban areas as well, not to mention the pollution coming from China.
Worrying about cigarette smoke is fine but most of the times it's overreacting (like in your case).

>>269100303
Less pig disgusting filler garbage (or filters, which do nothing but help fuck up your lungs), also good mouth hygiene dramatically reduces the risks of cancer if you smoke pipes and cigars properly.
Besides that, you can even roll pipe tobacco into cigarettes if you want, and you're going to save money on it that way because that's taxed less.

It sucks that smoking fucks your body. I like the taste and smell of tobacco.
>>
>>269104773
It's certainly a weird acquired taste. Go without smoking for a month, come back and the first cigarette always tastes like shit, which is probably what it truly tastes/smells like.
Smoke a second or a third and by the end of the pack it tastes smokey and rich or whatever. My brain refuses to call the taste of those first puffs for whatever reason.

I only really smoke once in a blue moon, usually when I'm dropping dead at work or when I smoke cigars on New Year's. I spent a lot of time around smokers when I worked on ships, so I think I just got used to the smell of tobacco and grew to like it and associate it with brotherly bonding. I also really like the high.

It does have all the ingredients for a surprise reveal ending and a last page catharsis. A little inoffensive manga perhaps with less of a bittersweet ending (see After the rain).

There was a time where I thought the reveal would be played for legit drama, but not anymore.

Do you even get anything after you built up a tolerance to the nicotine?
First time I had it was 3mg zyns, and first one got my heart racing and was pretty focused. First tin I'd take one a day maybe when I was working on stuff and it'd help focus and make me a bit jumpy.
Tried 2mg on!, did nothing, thought it was just too weak, so when I tried to save some money after buying a few zyn cans, I bought some 4mg on and it didn't really do anything, double up with 2, maybe, 3 made me uncomfortable. Up to 6mg zyn and it doesn't even really perk me up, probably because I burned through like 120 of the on pouches since they didn't do much.

They walk past the ramen place and say they're happy the way things are but in the next chapter they've apparently been eating ramen together over the year? Am I retarded?

You were not the only one confused by that. I think there was some sort of timeskip or something.

Yes there's a timeskip. On top of that Yamada says she'd rather die than do anything to upset the seemingly happy balance she has going on with Sasaki and all the chapters since have done shit to upset said balance. Latest chapter does in fact have them hanging out and eating ramen at her favorite place, though
