I had this conversation with many a friend. It seems that a lot of people fail to see the distinction in how Urasawa decides to construct the (sometimes excessively) over-complicated structure of his work. The fact is that the man is, at heart, a postmodernist: he cares less about traditional tropes such as character development and is rather much more interested in exploring various point of views of a single event, relating the events of his fiction to the real world and inciting the reader to form his own opinion on a subject, a story or a person. I personally love it, being the rive-gauche comp lit post-grad that I am; but I see how it might not be for everyone. ESPECIALLY because the man takes his sweet time in developing plot points. I’d say Monster is by far his most “standardized” work, as in that it’s quite understandable to see the evolution of the MC while keeping the eyes on the plot. But things like Billy Bat or 20th Century Boys, imho, pushed the manga medium to a whole another level that we’re starting to see as vibrantly influent and foretolding just now with some of the more high-brow stuff made by people like Inio Asano, who are more interested in atypical structures and influences external to the classical manga world.

I believe it’s either The Blues Brothers or 2001.

Mhhh. I don’t know how to feel about this: it seems like Mobilizon isn’t getting as much traction as other federated services.

I have been using Koler for a while, but my experience with it has been very buggy and confusing. Is there any alternative other than waiting for Fossify’s Dialer?

Horoscopes & astrology, and celebrity gossip.

I did know about LibreLingo, but it still feels like it’s taking really small steps! And the other alternatives don’t seem to offer the semi-holistic experience that Duolingo provides.
