Mieruko-chan by Tomoki Izumi. Yay or nay? - sh.itjust.works

A great read. Perfect combo of creepy horror and the rare wholesome moment. I kinda miss the early fanservice, though…

The series is better off without it, putting it into everything means turning away lots of people who might’ve otherwise enjoyed a series.

Us degenerates can go read Mato Seihei no Slave or the like if we wanna look at some lewd lineart.

To be honest, I think it is an overreaction to be unable to handle the occasional panty shot. It seems like they are projecting their own morbid fascination with teenage girls onto everyone. The fanservice added a nice touch to the overall experience. You had horror, wholesome, and ecchi in the same manga. That is a somewhat novel combo these days. Chained soldier has a very different vibe.

There’s nothing wrong with ecchi, but it can definitely be a bit of a fly in the soup for a lot of people, especially with manga and anime. And there’s nothing wrong with that, either.

I like fanservice in a lot of what I read and watch, but I’ve disliked it in just as many things. I don’t think you can make a blanket statement along the lines of “these people are just repressed prudes” for being unable to look past it when it is present.

Came for horror, discovered ecchi Manga lovers never disappoint

Hard yay. Early teething problems are quickly fixed as series found its footing, Miko('s suffering) is great and other characters have always more to them than their first appearance would suggest.

Monster designs are always on point and can be used in an extremely effective way. It’s a fantastic horror comedy.

I’ll never forget you balloon boy. You were great.

WHOLESOMENESS. I love this series’ wholesomeness ;u;

Also, for awareness, the author has a fanbox (it’s like patreon, I think?) at izumi000.fanbox.cc

He just wanted a hug…

Good find with the fanbox, seems like he’s posting early drafts of the chapters for dirty cheap.

i have a personal grudge against this series because i came up with the same idea a week before i discovered it and it didn’t hit the right spot compared to my own imagination, but otherwise i think it’s decent
Hey just because someone else came up with a similar idea doesn’t mean you Also, can’t put a similar story out. Maybe yours is better. Never know till you put it on paper
I watched the anime and loved it. Do plan to pick up the manga eventually
