Akane-banashi
-
Man, that was sweet. For a long time Akane's dad was so scarce in the story that I had wondered if we would meet him at all, but this really works wonders. They barely spoke to each other on panel if at all, but there is much going on it's a pleasure to read.
-
I love this manga so much. That chapter 1 parallel/callback with the sneezing? * chef's kiss *
-
Clever dad.

Excellent chapter.
-
through a sneez? mad cool.
-
Taizen time!!!!
-
Oh great, Afro Dick is here. Will he sit in the audience or bully his way backstage?
-
Yeah, you do what you want, Taizen.
-
I would love a whole spin-off series about just these three.
-
Taizen basing some of the characters' personalities on his rakugo bros...:'). The memory paralleled nicely with the rakugo tale.
-
Hyped to see Michael/Maikeru finally perform.
-
Maikeru!!!!!
Glad shiguma told Zensho to get the frick out. Still rooting for someone to deck that joker in the face.
-
This might be the most satisfying chapter yet. He might not have gotten actually punched, but the burns on him this chapter were glorious. For a master he has all the maturity of a 4 year-old. Literal tantrums.
-
oooh the big brother moment was awesome
-
This series has the best drunks.
-
Kinda felt like the end of a one piece arc with the party. I love Chocho and big bro Asagao so much; I don't want to part with them (even if I know that they'll still show up ocassionally) but I suppose it's some of the others' turn to shine.
-
ooooooh I bet i'm gonna get emotional with the Daddy Moment next chapter
(this one was a fun read, felt a bit like OP parties at the end of the arc)
-
The Japanese just love to party after a day of hard work.
-
Been trying to wrap my head around the rakugo family tree info dump lololol.
I wonder if shiguma jumped ship with shiguma 1 when he originally left the kashiwaya school to establish arakawa or did he leave the kashiwaya school after the arakawa school was established and ditch whoever he was currently learning under for shiguma 1? I want a more established timeline!
And now I'm more confused on how the names work (specifically the first name). I get that some are inherited like shiguma and enso but what about everyone else's? Do they just get to pick out whatever sounds cool? can they choose between taking up a stage name or sticking with their actual name? Like akane still goes by akane. Could she have chosen to go by a different first name all this time or is that something that can only happen at a certain point? I almost feel like it's time for a reread to refresh my memory on all the rakugo family drama and the rules.Also I am reminded of how young the arakawa school is.
-
I'm thinking Arakawa might be TOO strict.
-
oh I like when the prodigy boy take his time to go wild.
-
Can't wait to see Maikeru in action!
