The demographic replacement of this board to seamonkeys and favelitos has most certainly left me in despair.

Should I read his manga? I tried giving the anime a shot a long time ago, but it felt like a bunch of cultural references that I wouldn't appreciate without some heavy research.
>>
>>283524960
there's an obscene amount of cultural references but you wouldn't be any more lost than the average anon in 2007 when it first came out
the material still holds up
Japan has not changed that much since 2007, only the names of the relevant people
>>
>>283525075
also keep in mind that full scanlations were not finished until some years ago, over a decade after the original run.
just watch the anime desu

It is cool but it has too much Japanese soccer and baseball references.

it's hard to measure since most of the times a lot of pregnancy 'starts' when missing the first period, but the average days of gestation for a human is 280 days which you will see is a bit more than 10 months

Why'd it take so long? Though in many ways, the nature and essence of scanlators is unknowable. For instance, I'm confounded as to Kerberos Panzer Cop as well as the rest of the Kerberos Saga media hasn't been fully translated. I have a mind to get the Zen edition and pay someone to translate everything in it.

>look up prices for the manga

>>
>>283546988
If you thought the amount of references in the anime is insane, the manga is even worse. The scanlators went out of their way to make translation notes for every single one.
The only reason it happened is because people kept making threads reminding us to laugh in 7 years
which were eventually banned after the scanlations were done
>Kerberos Panzer Cops
If you thought GitS was slow, the Kerberos Panzer Cops movies are twice as slow as that. And nothing happens. Try watching Stalker (1979) sometime. It's like that.
Old live action movies are a slog to get through.

>The scanlators went out of their way to make translation notes for every single one.
At that point, just have an appendix. But I appreciate the notes at least. It shows that the scanlators care.
>Stalker (1979)
Never got through it. I have no clue with Tarkovsky was thinking when he made that. Otherside Picnic might share more in common with original novel than that garbage.
But mostly, I just want to read the KPC manga. I'm interested in the movies too because I want to see just how far Oshii goes with with alternate timeline Japan.
I was oddly enough, able to find subs for Onna Tachiguishi-Retsuden, and it reminded me of some pretentious art film garbage you'd see on Cinemax in 2004 at 2 AM.

Remember she only wears traditional clothes and acts intellectual because she's emulating sensei. If she fell in love with (you), then she'd just start acting and dressing like (you). Is that what you really want?
I would
>>
>>283554087
Oh no that would be bad
But what if I said to someone how I wanted a gf that dresses up like sensei? I think she would take the bait

I spend 90% of my time in an ill-fitting t-shirt (can't be bothered buying new and better ones) and my boxers, so I couldn't imagine a better situation desu.

Is it "hate"? Looks more like he is simply describing, what he is observing.
What's the problem with Kochikame? Is that from the same publisher (Koudansha) as SZS or what?
