Hey I remember a Hank Green video about this. I suffer from time to time with not being able to burp either, so I tried to remember this. Basically, botox injections are found to help for not burping, I think a specific variety, where a muscle is not working right. I think it's more in the testing phase, but maybe, you too could burp someday!

As someone already mentioned Mushishi; Natsume Yuujinchou is just so soft! I don't know how else to explain it.

I am old, so 2000s Fruits Basket, as well, mostly, as I actually finished it. I'm really attached to Ritsuko Okazaki's score. I haven't finished the recent series, but the 7 or so eps I've seen, made me super happy, as I wanted a series that adapted the full manga, and it nailed a lot of what I remembered.

OK, one more, as rereading your post reminded me of another romance series: Wotakoi! Sadly a short anime, but the manga has good feels, too.

I personally remember thinking the planes would be hard to control, like I never pictured just... oops, suddenly these wings don't work with the laws of nature, straight down to the ground. I was a child when it all went down, so, I don't remember if it was people actually saying it would happen, just over exaggerating, or what. Since some take things literally though, it should not have been put that way, I could definitely see it being fear mongering, and that's not good.

There were things that could have been affected though, so one part being put wrong on purpose or not doesn't mean, we should have ignored it.

Ah, go figure! I should have looked that one up as well. Glad to hear they're still working on it, maybe I'll go read up on it more. Thanks for the info!

I had no idea there was a term for this. That's quite handy, thank you.

I mean, it didn't happen due to all the hard work put in to fix the issue.

Kind of like how people are like, what ever happened to the hole in the ozone layer? The chemicals causing it were banned. I don't think the concerns about what could have happened should be ignored, as what if no one put in the work, like they had? You know, kind of like climate change?

Yeah, the arc was good in yours, but I kind of want more. For sure, I was super excited when I found BRtR in my library, I think it's the first time I've seen a trans man in any manga.

Haha, alright, I'll keep that in mind! Just not used to the slower places yet.

Nice req, I'll check it out!

I've also read and enjoyed Boys Run the Riot Although, I found it too short, sadly. The mangaka is a transman, as well.

Edit: just now noticed how old your post is, sorry!
