"i got blackout drunk with a beautiful woman and woke up in bed with her, naked? probably means nothing"

otherside picnic is so good. tbf to sorawo she is canonically an asexual lesbian, but even so she's very dumb about this

spoilershe keeps the obliviousness even when the other woman keeps saying she loves her and kissing her and bringing up her gay moms and whatnot. and she doesn't even consider she might be gay until VOLUME EIGHT. it took her THREE VOLUMES OF BEING KISSED AND TAKEN ON DATES AND HAVING THEIR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATED to realize other people looked at her and thought she was dating toriko.

and then after they actually talk about their relationship they try and fuck and have a bad time before sorawo realizes she just likes to watch toriko. genuinely really moving moment of self realization

Hmmmmm, intriguing...

Quick, I just finished a book, decide RIGHT NOW if I read this or Unjust Depths first!!

uhhh, unjust depths is longer and ongoing, otherside picnic is 8 volumes but they go by very quickly because it's a pretty breezy read. i guess otherside picnic? plus otherside picnic is easier to stop after one volume and start something else, unjust depths has individual volumes but they aren't as cleanly separated, otherside picnic is pretty episodic

Okay cool, Otherside Picnic is now slotted in just before Unjust Depths, ty ✨

Wait should I be reading the manga or light novels?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

light novels. the manga is a good adaptation but when so much of the way otherside picnic works is based in sorawo's pov the ln is definitely the way to go. also the manga is ongoing and is partway through volume 4 of the light novels rn, when the 9th novel is sometime this year
