A Tenipuri community

It's no secret that I'm obsessed with Atobe, so, speculation. Something branchandroot said in her response to my questions in my post about the Atobe family's financial situation about a year ago suddenly pinged me a little while ago. She called Atobe's father "a bit of a maverick" and clarified it with this:

Mostly because business has long equalled politics, in Japan and elsewhere, and Atobe-tou married a foreigner. That's... kind of a radical thing to be doing among those with clout, even today.

Have you seen episode 1 of the new anime adaptation of Shinpuri? What did you think of it?

It's time for the first discussion post in our manga readthrough. But let's start with a poll.

( Poll this way )

( And the commentary )

There seems to be at least some interest in holding a manga readthrough this summer, so we'll go forward with it and see what happens. The readthrough will start at the beginning of June.

The majority of the voters wanted us to cover two volumes a week, but as that would mean we'd be at it still in late October, I made an executive decision to cover three volumes a week. That way we'll be finished by the beginning of September. There will be a discussion post on Fridays, beginning on 3 June.

Are these details okay with you all? We can still change them if necessary.
