same energy but this one is better because it's two girls and one of them is a robot
(art by suzuki masahisa)
A giant woman with pale skin and flowing silver hair rests with her head in her mechanical hands. Some sort of mechanical device surrounds her ear and wraps around her head; it has what appear to be large antennae and cables sticking off of it. In front of her, a smaller woman wearing a green jacket and safety-yellow overalls stands in the bucket of a mobile gantry and holds a large paintbrush up to the giant woman's lips, applying what looks like lipstick.

people around here are really into those giant skeleton lawn decorations this year and after seeing them a bunch i really want to get one and make a life-size diorama of mitsukuni defying the skeleton spectre invoked by princess takiyasha
An image of Kuniyoshi Utagawa's "Souma no furudairi" ukiyo-e print. The right two thirds of the print are dominated by large bleached-bone skeleton hunched over the figures of two samurai reaching for their swords. On the left side of the print, a woman in flowing robes holds an unfurled scroll as she watches on.

dark days drive is a game where you play hot guy manservants who drive around in a beat-up old car running errands for your vampire master
the rulebook is full of great rules like "you don't have to be male to be a hot guy" and "you need to give your car a name"
The cover of the rulebook to Dark Days Drive. The cover features a drawing staring into a car through the front windshield. Two men in black suits, white shirts, and black ties are sitting in the front seat; the driver has short black hair, is wearing glasses, and is focused on driving. The man in the passenger seat has short blonde hair and is looking disinterestedly out the window while a cigarette hangs from his mouth. His tie is loose and the top couple buttons of his shirt are undone. A small yellow bird toy hangs from the rear view mirror. Behind them, leaning over the front seats from the rear is a small girl with silver hair and red eyes, wearing what appears to be an elegant full-sleeved white dress. She is drinking through a straw inserted into a blood bag whose label indicates it is Rh-type "B". The top of the cover contains the Role & Roll Books logo (it's just the name of the company). Beneath that is the subtitle, "下僕系イケメンTRPG", and the title, "Dark Days Drive," overlaid with its Japanese transliteration, "ダークデイズドライブ". The bottom of the cover contains a small publisher's logo: "新紀元社"

this manga (kaere! otsurudani kitaku club) is great
Two panels from a black-and-white comic strip. Panel 1: A girl with sort hair tied back and long, wispy bangs looks on excitedly, holding a riceball in her right hand while she points at it with her left. A speech bubble says: "Fear not! For I have left us a trail of breadcrumbs to follow!" Panel 2: The same girl turns around, looking at the ground behind her. A trio of pigeons are eating bits of rice off of the ground.

trying to explain the difference between a fetish and simple appreciation for when an author just happens to take the care to always highlight a certain thing and then draws it over and over

Two panels from a black-and-white comic. Panel 1: A girl wearing a high school uniform is drawn in monochrome gray, her face featureless except for an agape mouth. She stares down at someone's head. White text on a black background behind her: "OMG I spent so much time working on becoming a gyaru that I forgot to keep up with what's going on in otaku culture" Panel 2: The same girl, mouth still agape, surrounded by shock lines. Text boxes: "I'm cooked! I've Rip Van Winkled myself!!!"

the 'read an untranslated manga without feeling compelled to translate every other page so you can share the funny with people in discord' challenge (literally impossible)
A page from a lack and white comic. Panel 1: A cell phone screen showing a social media picture of three girls wearing high school uniforms. Text boxes: "And so my glorious high school rebirth came to pass... The gyaru accepted me as one of their own." Panel 2: A girl sits at a classroom desk, plotting, looking at a boy seated near her. Thought bubbles: "Now for my first order of business, calling out to a certain boy... He's going to be so shocked when a gyaru like me starts talking to him!!" Panel 3: The same girl, wearing a loose sweater over a high school uniform, smug-faced. Text boxes: "Now! Let the great friend hunt commence!!" Speech bubble: "Hey!! Nerd!! Whatcha rea--" Panel 4: A hand holding a newspaper with the words "KEIBA NINE" and a picture of a horse. Panel 5: A close up of half of the girl's face, her one visible eye in shock. Text behind her: "Betting sheets?" with the rest of the panel filled in with rows of question marks. Panel 6: The girl, flustered. Speech bubbles: "Wait... Why are you... A minor... Gambling... YOU'RE A CRIMINAL!?" The boy, answering: "Huh? Oh, no, I don't actually bet on them..." Panel 7: The boy, holding up his cell phone, embarrassed. Speech bubbles: "It's just... I've been playing "Horse Girls" and, like... Now I'm hooked on real life horse racing."

sometimes a manga is worth reading for its deep and compelling plot, and sometimes a manga is worth reading because for its relatable and entertaining characters, and sometimes a manga is worth reading because the artist draws really funny faces
(HanaBasu: Kokeishi Hanae's Basketball for Dummies)
A panel from a black and white comic. A girl looks toward the reader with one hand hovering at her mouth while the other is clenched into a fist: her eyes are big and wild, she is blushing, her mouth tucked into a small, tight line. Bold thought bubbles above her head read: "さっちゃん！私・・・" and "友達できました！！ Another girl sits in the background, watching on, a question mark over her head. A panel from a black and white comic. A girl with short black hair squeezes her eyes shut in delight, a curt smile on her lips, her cheeks rosy, her hands clutched together in front of her face. The words "優しい！！" and "キューン♡" are written next to her. A panel from a black and white comic. A girl with short black hair is hunched slightly over, panting, her eyes bold but furtive, her fingers awkwardly interlocked in front of her. A speech bubble coming from her reads: "3年間バスケ楽しんでください！" as she speaks to another person whom we only see partially from behind. On the far side of the panel is the text, printed in large bold typeface: "は～～～～！？"

back during that period of about three months or so in 2019 where everybody kept saying まじまんじ i would always mentally translate it like this
A screenshot of Foxxy Love from the animated television show Drawn Together. She is a dark-skinned adult woman with brown hair tied in a pony tail, wearing a red cap, red halter-top, and low-cut red pants. She has maroon animal ears and a bushy maroon tail with a white tip. Her left hand is raised in a, "Wait just a minute," pose. The bottom of the image is captioned with the text, "For real-real, not for play-play."

i feel like i am not deranged enough to ever do this book justice
An image of text: Another building, three hundred meters forward--fire escape. She picked out a girl, touching flame to a Short Hope, perched to descend on the hospital. Black mini and enamel shoes, courtesy of the PR department. Zippo engraved with the letters A.S.A.P.--As Soon As Possible. A fitting aphorism for their short-tempered squad leader. Pack's worth of crushed butts at her feet. <<That number eleven, Suzutsuki?>> Schwarze-Suzutsuki coughed smoke. She sputtered/glared. Oblivious to Kagerou's nest she pointed her middle finger indiscriminately at the sky, cigarette waving from her mouth. <<Just when I thought I finally had some alone time. Having fun spying on me, bitch?>> <<Killing time. Anyone ever tell you smoking's just slow suicide?>> <<Like I give a fuck. Your dumb slut brain get tired of checking out the hostages?>> <<One of them looks suspicious>> She switched on the laser sight--red dot blooming on Suzutsuki's chest/trigger still locked while they were on standby. Suzutsuki let out a puff of smoke--malding, maybe. Arms crossed/eyes narrowed in defiance. <<Didn't know you have standards>> <<Hmph>> That one might have actually stung/but why?/miffed that Suzutsuki had actually hit her mark. <<Waiting on an answer, dipshit>> <<You look weird using adult language>> <<Yeah?>> Exasperated. <<'Cause of all that nicotine stunting your growth>> Matter-of-fact. <<Nobody asked you bubble-blowing bitch! I should knock those water balloons right off your stupid chest!>> She ignored the flurry of insults--switched off the scope.

It's a shame, there are so many other great poses out there going almost totally un-drawn.
A photograph of a partial page of a book. A drawing of a woman in a black knee-length skirt, white shirt, and checkered vest in the middle of performing a suplex on another, similarly-dressed woman. A cut-off snippet of Japanese text can be seen at the bottom of the page.

I don't know who wants to read my review of 'The Cosmic Computer', a story about a bunch of idiots who fuck up their planet in a quest for a magic computer that will solve all their problems, or why a story like that would be relevant today, but here you go:

A cover for the Ace publication of "The Cosmic Computer" by H. Beam Piper (Original Title: Junkyard Planet). A small man in the foreground wearing drab overalls, a shiny helmet, and with a pair of cylindrical tanks strapped to his back, fires a laser rifle at a towering robot with a bublous body, spindly legs, and flexible arms ending in pincer claws.

A screenshot from an animated program depicting a fake, low-polygon-count fighting game. Player 2's life bar is reduced to 0, while Player 1's is untouched. A blocky 3D model of a character with yellow pants, an orange tank top and bandana, and a gray handlebar mustache is lying awkwardly on the ground with the words, "YOU LOSE," in large letters across the screen.
