Oh fuck.
>>286621630Oh shit.
>>286621630Real?
>>286621630Let's fucking goooo!

>>286622129I fucking hate this evil fox.
>>286621630I honestly didn't think the author would be able to put out another hit like Hinamatsuri. But JM reaches just those same highs if not better.
>>286621630Is 32 the latest translated chapter?
>>286622222Yes, the anon that is translating is currently 2 chapters behind, but from what he's said he's also busy with other projects but he usually catches up
>>286622180>if not betterThat's a tall order, Hinamatsuri is honestly as good as dramatic comedy gets imo. Although I'm almost tempted to say you're right because J-M is also just that good.I'll still take Hinamatsuri for now because that cast is just perfect.
>>286622315Hinamatsuri being finished at 100 chapters is also a big difference. JM is also introducing a bunch of new cast that is also good and I can tell it's getting better as well. We'll have to wait for it to finish to be able to make a proper comparison, but it being this difficult really shows Ohtake's talent
>>286621630>>286622098And my Hinamatsuri season 2???
>>286622315>>286622098>>286621630>Adults behaving like kids>Kids behaving like adultsThis author is like Wes Anderson of Manga/Anime
I could see this anime getting popular unlike Hinamatsuri.
>>286622496>Adults behaving like kids>Kids behaving like adultsDoes this really happen though? Hitomi is an outlier.
>>286622496>>286622841I feel like he just loves (and is very good) at writing assholes
Was Nitta in the wrong here?
>>286622882It was more about how sad it is that he had to celebrate besting a little girl.
>>286623313Sad? He outplayed HITOMI. That's glorious and deserved a party or two
>>286621630Fantastic
>>286623332>He outplayed HITOMIIn a way...
>half of the posts are about HinamatsuriIt's ogre
>>286621630Norway...
>>286623612I just haven't saved enough J-M pages but it's really that goodOhtakeverse discussion is always worth it anyway
When do you reckon the anime will end assuming 1 season? I would say Where J and Marie switch back their bodies sounds like a good spot but it will be difficult to cram in and I'm not sure if it was even out depending on when production began. Maybe somewhere around Maria's introduction?
I really like the manga. Always pretty tepid about watching the anime of something I’ve read, but at least it’ll get more eyes on it
Let's hope it's a good one>>286623612NittaGAWDS and hinaSTACIES run this joint
>>286623812This is pretty fucking dark.
>>286623612very few people read the JM manga hereexpect a lot more threads once the anime airs, and hell give it 2 seasons to make it sink it
>>286621630I haven't see a dump of this manga in a while. Either I miss it because it lives for so little or no one has been dumping.
>>286623879As >>286622246 mentioned, we're behind a couple of chapters.
>>286621630>J <-> M>JM>JtoMSearching/Talking about this manga is a goddamn nightmare because there's no standardized way of referring to its title.And on the topic of his previous work, I'd say JM has far stronger individual chapters and a better start. But the ridiculous snowballing in Hinamatsuri makes the whole greater than the sum of its parts.
>>286623962I remember feeling like Hinamatsuri was losing me the longer it went on.
>>286624001The timeskip definitely elevated Hinamatsuri for me. Mayyyyybe some of the very last chapters were overdoing the Hitomi joke but it still delivered mostly. Just wish Nitta got to fuck Hitomi.
>>286624017>Just wish Nitta got to fuck Hitomi.Nitta is too pure for you, Hitomi.You don't even like vases.
>>286623962fun fact: i was actually looking to scanlate it when it was 3 chapters in but decided against it when looking for raws was super hard because of the arrows inbetween
>>286623612You mean tranny discourse.
>>286621630I’m not surprised, but like Hinamatsuri, the manga has such a specific tone I’m doubtful a series would fully capture it. JM occasionally goes to some pretty dark places.
>>286624292It's a tone whiplash from Hinamatsuri because said manga takes a very sanitized and idealized view of the Yakuza that's popular in pop culture. Nitta's family in particular being one of the "good" Yakuza who only primarily does sketchy loans and grey businesses and gang wars being reduced to looney tunes shootouts. Meanwhile, JM actually shows straight up that the criminal world is actually well, really fucked up.Which kinda retroactively puts a damper on Nitta's "honorable" morality. I mean sure he explicitly keeps his hand clean of the more fucked up aspects of the job. But JM removes all the pretty sophistry and implicitly spells out that Nitta is more or less complicit and just turns a blind eye to all the more fucked up shit his peers do. The two series being explicitly connected ends up creating that weird retroactive dissonance.
>>286624211Kek this title is really an issue
>>286624456Meh, they were about to give Nitta a nice cement bath. It's just that JM is more trigger happy with the violence given that the MC is a killer and it makes for good jokes. Nitta being HONORABURU YAKUZA is never really much of a focus or even a plot point if we're being real, it's more that it's funnier to make Nitta a manager + handler of a bunch of young tards which isn't breaking believability or presenting some crazy sanitized morality.
>>286624592one site was like "ジェイエム" and another was "J to M" and the latest raws would be inconsistent inbetweenluckily someone here liked the manga enough to keep up with it for 2 years
>>286621630I hope there's loli fanservice.
>>286624750There's none in the manga. And anime these days are even more afraid of showing loli fanservice.
>>286624950>there's nonedepends on who you ask
>>286623962Should've named his manga C <-> P and have people try to look it up online.
>>286624950>>286624750They have a catfight between two little girls
>>286621630Thank you based gods
What happened to the scanlation for his other manga? Last I saw it was completely wiped from ’dex
>>286626169>What happened to the scanlation for his other manga?IIRC it's biannual.
>>286626169https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/285099510/#q285100598>i said i would get to akane over christmas but i didn't and am 2 months behind in my other series so i don't know when i'll get to it.
>>286621630Who would want to see a feral cannibal loli animated? This makes no sense!
>>286626169Step on me!!
Do you reckon it's going to be feel again or another studio?
This page had me in stitches, shame it won't reach this part.
>>286623812This is pretty fucking hot.
>>286624701JM ジェイエム raw 第01-06巻 [J M (Je Emu) vol 01-06]
>>286633255Shit. 4chan strips the double side arrow. But vol 1-6 tank is pretty easy to find.
>>286621630That's really cool, I'll stop being a lazy fuck and start reading it again. Gives me hope for Hinamatsuri season 2
They'll end it on the three way switch as a cliffhanger won't they?
>>286633897at the very least I thing they will resolve the contract because stopping in the middle of it is not just a cliffhanger, but bad direction
>>286621630Holy fuck. fantastic news.
>>286621630fuck this author for not making Nitta x Hitomi canon despite teasing it for years
