One morning, fifteen-year-old Yoshida Yuko wakes up to discover she has sprouted demon horns and a tail! Not only that, she learns from her mom that she has supernatural powers and an important mission—to restore her family’s glory by defeating the local magical girl. The magical girl in question is Chiyoda Momo, a student at Yuko’s school. With strength that is only mediocre at best, Yuko’s task to vanquish Momo will prove more challenging than she realizes in this topsy-turvy magical girl comedy.

And that's all for today! Demon girls and magical girls are just an everyday occurrence in this town, but Shadow Mistress Yuko (temp) doesn't stand a chance against the magical girl.How strong are you?
>>287303288>>287303276What a tough peach
>>287303243thanks, man
Looks funI'll give it a read tomorrowThanks, OP
It's been so long since I watched S1 that I don't really remember how early stuff goes so this is going to be a nice read>>287303492The strongest
>>287303288I want to tame a Shamiko!
>>287303276If Momo is such a womanlet, how tiny is Shamiko actually?
I'll be watching this storytime too, but the old thread isn't dead yet.
>>287303492Thanks anon now I have an excuse to finally read the manga>How strong are you?I'm weak and pathetic
>>287303492Thanks anon.>how strongWeak side of average
this manga is so good but re-reading it makes me sad>>287303492was she not saying "Don't think this means you've won!" yet or is this just a different translation thing?
>>287303492Not big on 4koma so I'm not sure I'll keep up with this one, but thanks for the storytime regardless. It's good to try new things. >How strong are you?Above average I think, I can bench 250 lbs and often get roped into helping people move furniture.
>>287303351>something no ordinary girl should have This is nonsense. Every girl should be a demon girl in an ideal world.
I saw this thread and thought a new chapter is out..
>>287307498It's shamikover
>>287303492Thanks OP. I always wondered why Shamiko was so weak for a demon and now I know.
Ganbare Shamiko
>ito will die before this daily finishes
>>287307256>this manga is so goodWhen does it get good?
>>287307750I don't remember which events happen in what chapter near the beginning that well any more but it's a bit awkward to start and then really comes into its own once the actual plot shit kicks off and we start learning about the nature of tamasakura town and what the dark office actually is and stuff. It all seems like random throwaway gags at first and maybe it was when Ito first wrote the pilot but somehow everything starts coming together amazingly cleanly and there's some pretty heavy stuff, at first just hidden as implications behind the background gags but naturally escalating as real stakes start getting added. it's really tragic that the mangaka is going to die before finishing it
>>287307256>was she not saying "Don't think this means you've won!" yet or is this just a different translation thing?She is saying it. Funny thing is, "Don't think this means you've won!!" was originally something the official translation came up with... for the anime. Only chapter 1 of the manga was scanlated before the anime and used "This doesn't mean you've won, okay!!", and every chapter after that used the official anime translation's phrasing. Until the official manga translation (which OP is using), which completely changed it for no reason whatsoever.The official manga TL has all kinds of weird and stupid changes in general. Like this gag about the pillow, Shamiko actually wants it so she can sleep without her horns bumping the floor (pic related) but official TL completely rewrote the joke to be about her tail for no reason.
>>287307750chapter 1
>>287307702wasn't ito working on some other project now?
>>287308097yes, the project of not dying in horrible pain
>>287308126>Ito is shamiko without magic but with the same health problemFeels bad man....She should make a patreon for her medical expenses, i bet people would cooperate to keep her alive
>>287303243>sexmi
>>287303299>45,000 yearsIt's 4-5000. Unfortunately both the official and unofficial TL have some jank to them.
>>287307982And people were complaining about MahoAko's TL, lmao.
>>287308706Imagining an anon with a very specific age fetish falling to his knees in despair at this post.
>>287303361>40k yen a monthHey, that's not that bad->a family of fourGoddamnAlso, does this means they will always be blessed with two children tho?
>>287303397>>287303408>>287303414>>287303458>>287303484>>287303492One of my favourite things about this manga is the detail that Ito-sensei manages to fit so casually in the background. Momo stops the truck with her left arm, hides it behind her back during the entire scene, then you can barely see bandages on it the next day.
>>287303243Nice, we'll have had three more chances to be sad about Ito's health by the time this catches up.
>>287308154>She should make a patreon for her medical expensesI don't think her patreon is gonna get enough for black market organ transplants.
>>287303243new chapter when?
>>287309621As soon as Ito stops dying
>>287308706>It's 4-50004000-5000 or 4-5 thousanddon't write 4-5000 unless you want to confuse people even worse than the original did
>>287309621it's not looking good
Shami is cute
Does this stay a 4koma all the way?
>>287311291It's a Manga Time Kirara manga, so yes
>>287311422It's Carat.
>>287303309I still want that shirt but all I can find is the lame short sleeve version >>287303492Thanks OP>How strong are you?Not very!>>287307750It's one of those stories that keeps compounding on itself.The more you give it the more it'll end up giving back
>>287309686>been at deaths door for half a decadegoddamn. Thank god MahoAko came back. The first chapter was pretty funny. I’ve been meaning to read this for a long time.
>>287311540>I still want that shirt but all I can find is the lame short sleeve version I saw that shirt when I visited Japan, but I decided against getting it because people who can read English would probably take it seriously
>>287311441Same thing. All Manga Time Kirara comics are 4-komas.
>>287312158Don't talk about things you don't understand.
>>287312158Being confidently wrong must be embarrassing.
>>287308154What's with the broken encoding spoilers?
>>287307750On a reread, it's good from the beginning. To a skeptical new reader, you get more and more convinced of its greatness as time passes. Whenever you might ask yourself "is this even going to lead anywhere interesting?", the answer is yes.I'd say you should give it at least 2 volumes, 3 if you haven't read enough manga of similar format to be able to tell whether it's your cup of tea.
>>287313359use spoiler tags faggot there's first time readers in the thread
>>287313402oh shit you're right sorry
>>287313413didn't mean to be so rude just thought for a second you were one of those fuckers who come to daily threads just to deliberate stir shit by refusing to tag their spoilers
>>287303249Nice outfit I want to smell her and nip at her legs

>>287312158Didn't you know Dandelion switched to story format?
>>287303492Thanks OP Not strong enough
>>287303465man they sure had big fucking heads in the early artstyle
>>287303492Thanks OP. I want to rewatch the anime again. When the narrator say Ganbare Yuuko at the end was total kino.
>>287313880One of these things is not like the others.
>>287314905Yeah. One of them actually finished.
>>287313880I was reading Ruri today too
>>287316508But why?
>>287316652Ruri is cute
>>287317805Rurifags, this is your mindset.
I can't believe Ito actually died and is having a memorial daily
>>287303361>>287303368>>287303378Is her mom a regular character? She’s pretty funny
>>287319450she's in almost every chapter
>>287319645nice
>>287303243Is this daily a ritual to resurrect Ito?
>>287318484>is having a memorial dailyIs that what we're calling the blood sacrifices now?
>>287307750I suppose the end of the volume is the first real hook. We could tell you more about [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] and how Shami's actually [REDACTED] and Momo's [REDACTED] but just enjoy the daily reads.
Why does the art look so much like a doujin?

And that's all for today! Shamiko drained her monthly allowance in a day. At least she got a good meal out of it.Are you an impulsive shopper?
>>287323999>7-1Was this a 33-4 joke in the original?

>>287324146Thanks OPThey're bonded real fast, huh>Are you an impulsive shopper?Used to be for Steam stuff at least, but I've wisened up after seeing 400 unplayed games in my library
>>287323999Wow, Shamiko got Brazil'd.

>>287303383I always forget to check if the Gosenzou was always broken or if it happened back now. Guess Lilith just always had one horn bigger than the otherIf ya know what I mean
>>287303414I never noticed before how her tail pulls on her skirt. She's just so fucking cute.
>>287303243I remember being so pissed at the official translation of this, they literally butchered her catch phrase, which I’m not sure how since the dub got it right
>>287303475YEAH FUCK HER UP YUKO
>>287324464No.
>>287324992Oji-sans that want Momo's Momos
>>287324146Thanks for the read, OP. I'm glad I can hop into this daily while it's still on its first chapters. I love this series, and I've been meaning to reread it again to catch up with ALL the new chapters that surely released in the meantime! But seriously, this is nice.>are you an impulsive shopperI'm a compulsive shopper. If I have money, I have to spend it, but what I spend it on is usually really deliberate and maximized, and I'll hold onto money if nothing good enough actually shows up. There's just instead an itch to continue to browse until something does appear.
I want to like this but I'm really bouncing off the 4koma style. I just start and then find my eyes shifting away, I'm not even a zoomer.
>>287324082kek. Shamiko’s mom might be my favorite character for how blunt she is about this dumb shit her daughter has to do>>287324146Thanks OP. >Are you an impulsive shopper?I’ve really buckled down so I’m not spending too much. Got other more important things that need attention, but I budget a bit for the occasional impulse buy >>287326251I’m enjoying it so far but I kind of get it. I’ve got to really like a series to stick with it when it’s a 4koma.
>>287326251Try the chapter version. You can switch to vertical scrolling so you only see one koma at a time.https://comic-fuz.com/manga/viewer/10281
>>287324992>just what are they fighting against that needs that much powerwithout getting into spoilers Shamiko sits on the shoulders of Madoka style dark mahou shoujo series so stopping a truck is in fact a low bar.
>>287303268I remember these omakes being confusing the first time I read it, they should go at the end of the volume or something.
>>287323999How many years before Brazil stops catching strays for that one?
>>287324055Is triggering your body's emergency energy reserves really that enjoyable?
>>287309686its starting to look like the hxh chart
>>287327701When someone even cockier gets an even more humiliating defeat.
>>287324062cheeki breeki
>>287327744Not for me, at least. When I hit the wall I get exercise induced nausea, throw up a lot and feel like I'm going to die.
>>287324103I've never been a fan of how destitute Shamiko is early on
>>287324045>knowing her body that intimately already
>>287324146it is depressing how poor she is
>>287327744Absolutely.
>>287329961A century or two ago leaving her with 40k yen a month would be practically a fortune, how times change.
>>287303361I do like the curse and that it adjusts to inflation. It’s funny but can also be seen as a commentary on the state of the world and how it treats people who oppose it. Gosh dang I love this manga
>>287303414I love how her tail reflects her mood
>>287330013bro’s chasing that near-death runner’s high like it’s a magical girl power-upI kinda get it though. There’s a split second after you push past the “I’m going to puke and collapse” phase where everything feels hyper clear and your body just moves. It’s stupid and not worth it most of the time, but it does feel like you unlocked a hidden buff.Too bad for me it just unlocks the “dry heaving behind the gym” route instead.
>>287330852For a long time, I absolutely loathed exercise. The reason why I forced myself to start doing daily cardio (I like running in place, since I can do that indoors) was to lose weight, since my aesthetic ideals are strongly influenced by anime and manga (it's an incredible feeling to realize that a character that you used to find much thinner than you now matches your current figure; laugh if you want, but my ultimate goal would be to have CLAMP-style stick-thin legs). That's still a major part of why I keep doing it, but over time, it also just became more and more fun. About a year ago, I would alternate between running in place for 15 minutes and walking in place for just as long, for a total of about an hour. Eventually, I began to just run through the entire time long. Now, whenever I have the time, I like to do so for an hour and a half or even over two hours.
>>287324014Mo' magical girls, mo' problems>>287324073Fun part of rereads is seeing which details just get glanced over>>287324082Shamicute>>287324146Thanks OP>Are you an impulsive shopperI suppose I can be, but whatever, it's just money. I can make more>>287328471I think it's a decent measuring stick for tracking shami-power levels>>287331235I should get back to exercising, I've been really meaning toBut working overtime for more or less a year straight has really been kicking my ass
>>287332101>I should get back to exercising, I've been really meaning toWould have helped with the weight loss.
>>287331235I think I'd want to exercise more... If only it doesn't take literally two hours. If only time stops everytime I run, it'd feel less like a waste of time.
>>287308747All those questions and more will be answered when the time comes.
>>287331235>run through the entire time long*run the entire time longThe "through" is a remnant of my initial phrasing.
>>287324025>mirinUh, was that supposed to be a pun? I thought it was just a cutesy suffix.
>>287324045This is sexual harassment, magical girls shouldn't do that sort of thing.
>>287324146Not really, I'm kind of a cheapskate. I treat myself sometimes though, especially if it's something that looks tasty and I haven't tried it before.
>>287332183Yeah, the overwhelming majority of that was just not being an idiot with calorie consumption
>>287324025
>>287324146Thanks op. Sometimes, I try and rein in it when it's just something trendy I won't care about in a week.
>>287324082SatanriAlso, why is momo crying?
>>287335992>why is momo crying?defeated by the Shamikock
>>287303243Thanks for COPE posting this op, if the timing COPE works out right you'll COPE catch up just in time for Ito's COPE triumphant return in the June issue of Kirara Carat COPE COPE COPE
>>287324146Shouldn't have blown it all on nuts and beeru, Shamiko.
>>287303243I cant believe Ito died ;_;Thank you for this
>>287303378>>287324082I never realized that Shamimom's dress had that patch. Is this a thing in the anime too?
>>287338491It's only temporary. She'll rise again to finish volume 7 one day!
Ito is fine, right? Relatively speaking. All the jokes are making me doubt.
>>287341246I don't know about fine, but she was able to post on Twitter on her Elf account twice last month.
>>287341246She seems to be doing sort of okay, maybe, but she's obviously still not well enough to draw a monthly manga since we're still on hiatus. Something about not being able to sit at a desk for longs periods of time.
>>287342241It says a lot that being physically able to post twice a month on twitter is the benchmark for being okay.
>>287342241>>287343246You guys are forgetting about GundamDeathscythe_Hell. Ito's husband. She confirmed he really existed about two years ago, when she was briefly visible, if not making chapters, during the 5/10 celebration for the anime/manga and Kirara's birthday celebration later that same year.I think this long hiatus is less about her actual health on any given day but her husband noticing the pattern of hospitalizations when she trys to work and is just stopping her. A spouse can do that, all he has to do is threaten to divorce if she keeps making herself sick.
>>287303361>Cursed to family of four on 40k a monthare the magical girls really the good guys...?
>>287343820Magical girls are evil. They bulli poor innocent hags who are just trying to do what's best.
>>287343820That curse is far too merciful, total genocide is the only valid way to deal with d*mons.
>>287324045Cute workout clothes

And that's all for today! Momo keeps fishing Shamiko for dark thoughts but Shamiko is just too pure.What's your greatest desire?
>>287344706Not openly yet but evil 'magical girl' Suika has knife ears
>>287324146Thanks OP Not to any great or worrying extent
>>287308706Official translation for Machikado was so bad I only bought one volume and never bought another, there's so many localization moments>The pillow joke gets entirely rewritten because the localizer thinks "Iololol it'll never actually matter so I'll just change it to a funny word like butt", and then it actually ends up kinda important later on, but the brick joke never works because they mistranslated it in the first place>Lilith with 45,000 years, because the localizer didn't know Ancient mesopatamia was only 5000 to 6000 years ago, which is the dawn of human civilization. And they didn't know Lilith was in the Epic of Gilgamesh>Shamiko's fucking catchphrase got changed for no reason, in a way that makes it entirely stop working after volume 1 because the localizers are retarded. 90% of the time she uses it in later volumes it makes no sense because of the way they changed it, they didn't realize how core it would be to her>There's so many things that entirely got removed in localizationIts what made me realize Seven Seas was a shit translation group.You go and read early volumes of maid dragon and its the exact same mistakes; so many localization moments changing shit like changing Lucoa's nickname to "Ectal" not realizing calling her Lucoa actually mattersThey're never allowed to go back and correct early volume translations apparently even when they botch it, so a lot of stuff that comes back around later on never makes sense to english readers, since they mistranslated the first instanceSome volumes feel like 4kids tier translation with how they messed up jokes in maid dragon because they saw the original joke as controversial, so they just mangled it in order to try to avoid implications, when the implication was the point.Dunno if they ever got better, but the first two volumes are still really bad
>>287344737>In Japan, a 20.5 shoe size represents a foot length of 20.5 centimeters (cm). This is primarily a size for children, typically fitting children aged around 8 years old.Gosenzo...
>>287303243Season 3 never.
>>287344716The most pathetic character has arrived.
>>287344737>eat betterWith what money? Is she supposed to go dumpster diving for nutrients?
>>287344971Also forgot an obvious one>Localizer changed all metako's lines to cat puns, and now he talks in all "Nyaa, meowsers, the time is meow" because the localizer didn't think him saying the exact same line all the time was "funny", so they tried rewriting him, not realizing how he was originally written might have been important for the storyVolume one translation really felt like "Localizer wants to prove they're a better writer than the original writer" sort of translation, with all the rewrites trying to add bad dub jokes
>>287344971>>287345334Should the dump change to the fan translation?
>>287345367Its probably fine, I've heard it gets better in later volumes. But I still hold it against Seven Seas that they're too up their ass to go retranslate things even when they realize they were wrong with how they did it originally. Volume 1 in particular needed a re-translation but they refuse to ever do it.
>>287344971>They're never allowed to go back and correct early volume translations apparently even when they botch it,if the backlash is big enough they do reprints, pic related. with machikado best you could do was contact seven seas and hope they make corrections in future volumes
