    Does the translation go further than ch35? Because the last page of that one would like to disagree with your edit.

    Manga: Seishun Bakusou!
    Highschool experience exactly as I remember it, (only half-joking here).
    Trainwreck in the works but I. can't. look away. closest thing to it I guess would be Aku no Hana.
    I like it because even in a setting as prone to trope-y plotlines and shenanigans they sometimes can come up with crude depictions on how schoolife can be for some people.
    Read first 20 chapters or so in one go and even felt compelled to comment somewhere about it, it's no masterpiece but it's been an entertaining wildride so far, which is more that can be said about a lot of manga.
    Also, I guess some warnings about bullying, sexual violence, abuse and drugs apply for those who are sensitive and would rather skip those topics in their reading.

    Thank you again for creating this corner of the internet and I hope you have enough to pay the bills for a long time still.

    Could AI come up with this?

    I'm ESL and not familiar enough with AI capabilities, but this post has a distinct kind of funny I'm sure current models can't come up with on a first try.

    Obviously if it became commonplace slang, it would get picked up by the training datasets, but I'd like to think originality is still a human domain.

    Also, really informative, thanks for skimming through youtube and posting interesting content, god knows I can't stand browsing that site more than a couple of minutes at a time, with all the ads, sponsored content, stupid reactions, shorts and whatnot.

    He sounds like he chose Verso's side. Alicia's ending is equally valid IMO and if I was in that situation is what I'd personally pick.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
    It deserves every single bit of praise it gets.
    It's taken over all my free time to the point where I can't wait to get home from work to continue playing.

    Outstanding music, visuals and some really cool and intriguing story.
    So far I'm on act II and while things have slowed down somewhat, it's worth playing it for the prologue and act I alone.

    Mechanically takes some time to get the parrying/dodges right, but it doesn't go up to fromsoftware levels and you can always lower the difficulty or repeat the fights until you get it right.

    I tried to stay away from wikis, guides and review sites and went in completely blind on max difficulty, I only saw some passing coments in an unrelated YouTube video of someone who didn't like the ending but besides the mood nothing spoiler-y.

    If you've ever had a minimum of interest for RPGs and have the pc to run it at max settings I can't recommend it enough.

    PS: It got me so excited I had to share it somewhere since none of my irl friends play single player games anymore, for someone who doesn't really engage with social media, even in anonymous sites like tildes, it's a really big deal!

    As long as it doesn't affect other aspects of your life I personally don't see anything wrong with it. I do more or less the same, even the type of games is similar, I do sometimes whish it was a more social hobby or that it'd allowed me to learn some useful skill but then I see the average online/mmo type of game and I quickly loose interest.
