If you don’t want to change your style too much—then, when it comes to depicting age, adding more lines on the face (where lines should be) typically makes characters look older by default. That may be fun to experiment with. Or you could cheat, and give them a nice beard. Otherwise, it may be time to revisit some basic anatomy. Boring, I......

Might be a long shot, but does anyone have any reccs for a manga set around the 40’s? A couple decades earlier or later is fine, but preferably no later than the 80’s, and chock full of slang and old phrases. The genre doesn’t matter, I’m just looking for a fun reference for writing an older character.

Yeah, yeah, whatever.

Dude couldn’t settle on a position and just kept flipping that guy like he was a rotisserie chicken.

I was fully convinced we were going to watch this guy straight up die in the middle there. How nothing ruptured is beyond me, props to him, I guess

Call me crazy, but seeing a dick that wasn’t drawn to look “perfect” or “pretty” for a change was insanely refreshing.
The size however… holy mother of nature’s battering ram. All hell is about to break loose, and by “hell”, I mean that poor dude’s ass.

“Corrupt cop and unabashed hedonist” in the description REALLY caught me off guard during my casual browsing…

Anyhow, would anyone like to tell me if this is worth a read, in their opinion? Feel free to over-explain why.

I don’t know the age of your daughter, but did you try asking her for what she wants? If that isn’t an option, or you want it to be a surprise, then maybe go for something simple. Start with choosing a colour palette, like pastels or silver+her favourite colour. Or you could make it character themed, if she has a favourite show or movie.

I’ve never read a story that deliberately abuses clichés to this extent, and yet for all of its comedic predictability, it has some of the most out of pocket punchlines and unbelievably screen-shot worthy dialogue.

Go find something in your ‘I want to read’ list.

To any who need a reason to stop searching and to actually use your damn list. This is it. This is your sign. Read away.

I think this character has changed me at a molecular level

The panel of his strained and tensed hand leading into a panel where his hand is relaxed, laying softly at the other guy’s back? Somehow, that alone made it feel way worth keeping up with all of this.

Look, I’m enjoying this series, I really am,
but every time I see the legs on these wolves I can’t help but notice they look like they have broken bones. Canine legs just don’t work like that.

The slapstick comedy is insane and yet what slaps me the hardest is when the art suddenly gets REAL good.

I’m probably enjoying this way more than I should be.

I don’t understand him at all and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Not being to tell what he’s thinking or predict what he’ll do next is such a fresh depart from the same ol’ characters and cliché routine. Don’t get me wrong, that’s all fine too, but I like something unique every now and again. As a treat, y’know?

I see you all crying that it has ended, and yet, you all sound so happy. Truly a great sign of a simple good read.

Wah

Never read a horror manga that actually scared me before, so I cannot understate how embarrassed I felt getting straight up jumpscared by that guy just now…

Anyway, I’ve never wanted to be a ball of konjac before, so I guess chapter 68 gave me TWO new experiences. What do you know?

I adore the character progression of; “welp, cat’s out of the bag, they know I love ‘em so I may as well be honest from here”

I didn’t realise the whole squirting thing was a whole ass subplot

…we better get a satisfying ending for it.

To anyone here who writes for a hobby and happens to see this, I can near guarantee this work is worth a read to get some inspiration going, especially if you like moody/dreary themes;

Even if you don’t, if this can get even one other person to read this, I would feel delighted
