    Just finished Umibe no Onnanoko/A Girl on the Shore, 8/10

    I went into this one blind as it was part of a care package and had never heard of it before. Was really interesting though pretty graphic at times. I didn't realize it until I went to score it on MAL, but it was written by the same author as Punpun. It had some pretty fucky themes but set a really distinct mood that made it almost uncomfortable to read at times. It was only 20 chapters so it was a fast read, and there were pages and pages of just fantastic artwork. The ending was kinda bizarre but overall it told a very real story and did it well.

    I take it that Crunchyroll is licensed, and therefore legal?

    It'll tell you who has it, and all the sites listed are legal.

    The actual finale episode is a fine finale episode too!

    wow okay, it's not like I posted about here after I read it like two weeks ago.
    I've been skimming rather than reading lately. I don't recall reading anyone talking about it.

    Not serious, since some of you have bad shitpost detector.

    That is what appealed to me as well. We're watching the average-to-below-average make their way in a hostile world, and it makes the outcome less certain. They aren't aiming to be the very best (like no one ever was~), but to just put food on the table and better equipment on their backs.

    You guys were not kidding when you said the actual Grimgar finale was as good as that mid-season one. Definitely my winter favourite, and unlikely to lose this spot since I plan to read Erased instead of watching it.

    Also, Mary's cute in so many ways.

    To be honest I liked all the characters for various reasons. They were remarkably human, a very rare quality in the genre Grimgar's striking at.

    Haruhiro was clearly gay for Manato though.
