Don't put sellotape on your nipples.
— Apple Dog @ Bakuakugi Volume 1 is out (@appledog_eringi) May 11, 2025
I didn't like my nipples being visible through my clothes, so I used to cover them with cellophane tape.
When I got home after a day of work and it started to itch, I peeled it off as hard as I could, and the skin peeled off, revealing the flesh, which stings. This continued for a week.
But my nipples became extremely sensitive.
A pleasure that reaches right up to your brain.
That was amazing.

I feel a little bit that I would prefer that Oriental dragons not introduce themselves as Oriental dragons (this is a designation from a Western perspective that sees Western dragons as the default dragon, so Oriental dragons should confidently introduce themselves as dragons and call other dragons that are not Oriental dragons Western dragons, or even call them obese dragons in a natural way).

They say that the huntsman spider is a beneficial insect, but people can't be that grateful for that appearance. If he wants to be more accepted by the public as a hero, he needs to appear dashingly when a cockroach appears, kill it, make a V sign, and then leave.

I drove a car for the first time in a while today, and there were a lot of people driving in LOOP. They were driving while saying things like, 'I'm going to run you over, I'm going to run you over!' If I caused an accident and the dashcam was seen, it would be assumed that it was completely intentional. It's dangerous.

What this means is that there are people who have made it a 'rule' or 'etiquette' that 'it's okay to condemn potatoes if they appear in a medieval European fantasy world,' rather than 'it's strange to have potatoes in a medieval European fantasy world.'
This distinction is important.

In supernatural battles, the balance between the ordinary and the extraordinary becomes increasingly out of whack, and the protagonist returns to school for a day to see the ordinary before the final battle, or after defeating the last boss, the heroine unilaterally declares farewell to the protagonist, wanting him to return to his ordinary life. It's beautiful, but I feel like it's not popular these days.
