Well I was busy adding a bunch of categories for some of the stuff I just watched and plan to yap about in the not so distant future… when I noticed I have a Parent category for manga, and it’s empty. Well I can’t have that so here’s a post about something called Otaku no Musume-san. I decided on it as I didn’t feel the need to terrify people with Kodomo no Jikan… yet.
Otaku no Musume-san is exactly what the title suggests. You have an otaku living in one of those awesome one room apartments. (I can say that, it’s bigger than my fortress of awesometude, I mean my room. And all of a sudden he’s got this little girl on his doorstep with a letter that claims she’s his daughter. Now, I can relate to this manga for numerous reasons. Mainly that it’s an entirely possible scenario for my future, and yes, that means I have a spawn, supposedly. (Long story) Anyway as one would imagine the humour in the series is the result of entirely awkward situations such as his pillow cover starring a character from a show his daughter watches. IT’s one of those nice ones with an almost dirty picture on one side, and a dirty one on the other side. She picks it up with the almost dirty side facing her and he sees the other side… There’s a picture of it floating around somewhere and it’s the entire reason I picked the manga up.
Now for horrible news. Yes the manga is being scanslated; And gettable here. (As per usual it’ll try to open in a new window) If after several months of inactivity you can still say such things like ‘being’ and not ‘used to be’ or ‘was being’. Though I’ll admit, the group did release a chapter of something, last month, though not Otaku no Musume-san. They took us to Chapter Six and have left us there it seems. Last update of it was in October of last year. So, Akatsuki manga, please scanslate more… or someone…
