What was your reaction when reading through a manga and suddenly came to an abrupt end? Consumed by rage? Filled with confusion? Drown in disbelief and denial? Perhaps, plagued with uncontrollable laughter at the absurdity.Nevertheless, come. Relive, share with others, or experience for yourself the first time some of these short lived (maybe justifiably so) creations.Make valuable lessons be learnt. And never forget, the true ending was the friends we read questionably sourced Japanese cartoon drawings on a handicraft forum with along the way.Bluefin tuna populations are at about a quarter of 1950's levels. As the world debates how to save the species, there are fishermen who depend on them to make their living... One tuna at a time.>Kirishima Haruna is a member of an idol group. But after being told that she would not be part of the main team due to her poor sales, she started to crumble as her debt stacked up with lesson fees. "How did it come to this?!" screams the young girl... while holding a tuna between her thighs.Chapter 15 >>283931955

>>283955224Thanks.
>>283954915Couldn't they play poker on the ship?
>>283955224gnite OP.
>>283961409It's dangerous to go alone, take this!
If they make an anime version the songs should be done by Shoji Meguro.
>>283955063For a strip poker episode in ecchi-adjacent manga this is a bit tame.
>>283966447Moderation is good
>>283959435Only mahjong
>>283957212Cute!
>>283955004Is it really that fun for the girls to play strip poker among themselves? Especially when they bathe together and don't close the toilet door. Or are they serial exhibitionists?
>>283970382It's for our gazes
>>283970719Do they know of us?!
Let's make it.
Ty op
>>283954879I think the shitty art adds to the endearingness of this manga
Almost there!
Chapter 17: The Girl Who's Superstitious
>Wha>What are you doing, Dia?>If I can walk the entire edge like this>The next catch will go well>Hah?>It's a superstition>Superstition?
>The common sense on land doesn't apply at sea>You've come to understand that too, haven't you?>Thoroughly so>That's why fishermen each have their own superstitions>Especially because...>the next fishing ground is off the coast of Norway in winter>Where a single moment of misjudgement leads to death>So it's really>That scary of a place...>We'll be okay, right, Dia?*Turn
>Huh!?>I fell>Eeh...>Not here, huh?>What are you looking for, Myouko?>Whales>Whales?>There's a belief that spotting whales when setting sail is an omen for a good catch
>If I can juggle 5 onions then everyone can fish safely, a'ight>Oh my, my?*Roll roll>It'll be a big catch if I can thread a needle in 5 seconds...!>If I can hack into the Pentagon's central server, the catch will be successful>Hm, a counter virus, huh?>You aren't playing around, are you...?*Splash>This isn't good...*Splash
*Splaaash>What's this?>Immersion suits>In the event the ship capsizes, you wear it to protect against water and cold
>Somehow, I've just got a bad feeling so>I've decided we'll have a thorough donning training>Capsizing, huh? Aren't you exaggerating?>Not at all>The fishing ground off Norway's coast this time>Is good in that it's where currents collide and fish gather, but>It also means it's easy for choppy waves to form from waves hitting each other>These waves are extremely high>And can easily capsize ships that just started fishing with little load>Scary...>Then, for how to don it>First, take it out of the bag and spread it out*Flop
>Sit on top of the suit>Put your legs in>And pull it up*Shoop>Secure the Velcro® at your feet*Pat>Since this is donning practice in case of emergency>Put your arms in starting from your non-dominant side so you don't panic
>Put on the hood and zip it up*Jiii->Lastly, seal the tape around your mouth*Pchik>Do this within 30 seconds>Ain't that too fast?>Assuming you're donning it when the ship is capsizing>Even 30 seconds may be too slow>Geez, your thinking's way too pessimistic, Dia>Seriously*Fumble fumble*Fumble fumble
>Flooding, go*BAM>Pwhoo-!?>Wh-What are you doing!?*Cough Hack>If you get splashed with the cold sea water off Norway's coast, your heart can stop>That's why, when fishing in the cold season, not just when water floods in,>but also when fishing, you pound your chest if you get hit by a wave. It's common practice.*Thump>That's some common practice...>Do you see why fishermen are superstitious now?>Yeah...
*Swift swift>Alright>I'm gonna be superstitious too!>If I can don it in 30 seconds*Fwmp*Shoop*Sha>Our trip will go without any big trouble!>I did it!>Under 30 seconds!*Donned
>Alright, training's done>Food's ready, a'ight>Wa... Wait for me... I wanna eat too...>Geez, how do you take this off!?>Kyaa!?*Bam>What the? What the?>Food's gonna get cold, Haruna->How did it come to this!?Chapter 17 End
And that's all for today. One fishermen's superstition is another's way of keeping sane.Good day/night, everyone.
>>283981958OP, I'm just curious: is there a reason why you've retained the opening post all this time? Do you see it as your trademark, or you've just never bothered to change it?
>>283973484They send us faxes
>>283982431Search filter/pleb filter/theming like a TV program/fun/autism.Objective language to disassociate any one person from the posting as much as possible. Focus on the manga.
>>283981769Waves don't really hit each other. It's wave interference (adding up where both are high) that makes abnormally high waves sometimes.Erotic tuna manga is a good place to learn!
>>283983888You're expected do be doing a lot of proofreading then, mister fisherman
>>283981958Thank you for posting.
>>283985785bump for readers
>>283981958gnite OP.
>>283987670Arigato!
>>283982450Very high tech.
>>283991651The latest!
>>283991651Fun fact: I considered sending a fax for the first time in my life today (I'm not that young either). I didn't send it because printer was too much hassle to set up and I wasn't sure I'd do it right from the get go.
>>283993910You've cheated yourself out of a German cultural experience.
Wow, someone should typeset
>>283998218You sound typeset.
