Set in an apartment complex on the outskirts of Tokyo, Talk To My Back (1981 - 84) explores the fraying of Japan's suburban middle-class dreams through a woman's relationship with her two daughters as they mature and assert their independence, and with her husband, who works late and sees his wife as little more than a domestic servant.
While engaging frankly with the compromises of marriage and motherhood, Yamada remains generous with the characters who fetter her protagonist. When her husband has an affair, Chiharu feels that she, too, has broken the marital contract by straying from the template of the happy housewife. Yamada saves her harshest criticisms for society at large, particularly its false promises of eternal satisfaction within the nuclear family - as fears of having been "thrown away inside that empty vessel called the household" gnaw at Chiharu's soul.
Yamada was the first cartoonist in Japan to use the expressive freedoms of alt-manga to address domesticity and womanhood in a realistic, critical, and sustained way. A watershed work of literary manga, Talk To My Back was serialized in the influential magazine Garo in the early 1980s, and is translated by Eisner nominated Ryan Holmberg.

When a job came along that forced him to enlist some help, he learned that he's neither alone nor unknown in the world... Now Weaver is on the run, joined by two fellow "actives", the tough-as-nails (and miraculously healing) Maggie and the technopath Morgan.

And maybe, just maybe, he isn't so unique after all. Collects the complete storyline from issues #1-6 of the regular monthly Uncanny comic book series.

There's a legendary Bishoujo Game that has become popular among Japanese gentlemen. Its name is "Magical☆Explorer" or MagiEro for short. The game's protagonist has a cheat-like power with 12 different beautiful heroines to flirt with, including additional 12 heroines from the DLC, a harem of 24 beauties. I have become that protagonist! Not. Instead, I have become the third-wheel character who always laughing like an idiot next to him. There's no heroine that would lay their eyes on me.
But now I couldn't care less about the protagonist and his heroines. Why? Because I discovered magic. While I was using it, I have become interested in it. I want to master it. I want to become the strongest. Thus I have decided. I would abandon half my role as a protagonist's friend to train my magic and then I would beat the hell out of that cheat who can solo the Demon King.
I was training with that thought in mind, but somehow I keep getting closer to the heroines and furthermore, I don't know why I keep encountering events like I am some Eroge's protagonist.
