Agreed.

I'm expecting massive cockblocking next chapter
Yeah, gotta agree on that. Or we could be surprised and the cockblock doesn't happen.

Ch 84 - Touch Me A Lot

Once again, the name on the tin describes the contents of this chapter. While we have not hit the predicted roadblock (yet), this is certainly NSFW. And Nagi and Karin keep merrily careening along the highway... Wonder who will try and stop them?

Enjoy! :D

This chapter was epic win. Completely NSFW, but who cares about that. I wouldn't be surprised if they get cockblocked, but I'd be upset. Karin passing that milestone would start up a great deal of plot development on the romance side.

This series got boring. It abdicated the most interesting part, which was getting creeped out by the xenophobic islander cult that has a strong history of human sacrifice. Now all that old lady does is ask Nagi why he hasn't boinked 'em yet; all that's happening is a parent-approved harem romance. I was way more interested when there was a danger he was gonna get lynched for ignorantly talking to a Maiden out of turn.

Tch.

If it isn't your poison, that's fine, but I like this little love story. It's a harem manga where all the girls actually have a shot. Shizuku's got an edge, but it's not clearly foreordained like it was in Ai Yori Aoshi.

Umi no Misaki never gave off the vibe of potential human sacrifice. The premise could make such a thing possible in another story, but the tone of this story never had that as possibility.

I started reading this a bit last week, gotten through chapter 54. What bothers me most about this story is that there is no real supernatural element. The Dragon God is mere tradition and not really any mystical ability. Yet in spite of this the Cape Maidens just take the old woman's word for Nagi being the Dragon God.

Anyone else bothered by that?

Chapter 51.

That's the particular example that sticks in my mind. I'm not saying the cult does it now, but it's the history.

Actually, I really like there's no mythical powers. It's just this island's cult; they have no special reason to believe he's a incarnate diety except of where and when he happened to be born.

I'm kinda pooping on this manga, but this part--religion without any shounentastic magical powers--I actually really liked. So I guess I'm of the opposite opinion compared to you.

In real life, that's the case as well. No religious leader ever had confirmed powers or abilities.

The girls and Nagi are interesting because anywhere else, they are just kids, where as on the island, they are divine beings.

After almost... two months!?!?! :blink: ...a new chapter. :yay:

New scanlation for Ch 85 at <a href='http://www.mangafox.com/manga/umi_no_misaki/v11/c085/1.html' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>MangaFox</a> and <a href='http://www.mangaworld.org/projects/umi.html' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>Solaris-SVU</a>.

Ch 85 - Satisfaction and Anxiety

I can tell you there is a lot of one, and little of another. And not in a good way. This chapter is NSFW, natch.

Includes a very nice color page and a glimpse of the cover for the upcoming Volume 10 tankobon (first page of chapter).

And the next one up on the hit parade... Soyogi! *boxing bell rings*

Enjoy! :lol:

Poor Nagi. Almost got the wrong hole, and then blew his load early. >.<

Chapter 86 is up. Soyogi is so incapable of "normal" relationships that it bends right back around and becomes adorable. :wub:
Bwahahaha...

That was so inept it was hilarious...


He cannot have a normal time at her house... I'm waiting for her unrequited hopeful to be lover to show up again...

And why is it the only time I ever see Japanese romance guides mentioned in anime or manga is when the girls reading them screw it up big time...

In real life, that's the case as well. No religious leader ever had any alledged powers or abilities subjected to the rigors of modern science and technology.
Fixed that for you.

Ch 86 - Essential Point

Soyogi prepares for her date with Nagi by studying Karin's women's magazines. It goes about as well as you would expect, except for the end. ^_^

Enjoy. :lol:

latest chapter was interesting. More back story on Soyogi, and an ending i think we all saw coming.

Ch 87 - Complex

Soyogi talks about the other Maiden that she is jealous of, and it's not who you think. Then she shows and teaches the Dragon God her martial arts routine, and when he goes to take a shower, she joins him... or does she? ;)

Enjoy! :lol:
