Soul Eater 88 / Soul Eater Not! 07 lightning-round spoilers

First of all, yes, this chapter is numbered 87. As was last month's chapter.

I assume that this was just a typo and that this is indeed supposed to be chapter 88 that I'm looking at right here, and I also assume that this will be corrected in the eventual volume release.

But hey, this is Ohkubo, the guy for whom the number 72 apparently does not exist, so when weird numbering shit happens I guess we just never know.

( Spoilers! )

Soul Eater Chapter 88: Herman Melville, eat your heart out.

Yeah yeah yeah I know that the front of the chapter says that it's CHAPTER 87. But since we had CHAPTER 87 last month, I'm just going to go ahead and assume that that was a typo and that Ohkubo's editor was asleep at the wheel again.

( So anyway, WHALING! )

Linkspam: A really, really good metaphor for explaining "privilege" of many types.

On the difference between Good Dogs and Dogs That Need a Newspaper Smack.

Definitely read through the whole thing. I love this metaphor now.

(I would not, however, recommend reading the comments.)

Soul Eater Not! Chapter 7: Tsugumi vs. the Fosbury Flop

OH MY GOD THEY ARE ABOUT TO BE EATEN BY A GIANT SPACE-VAGINA!!!!!

Er, I mean, the opening page of this month's chapter is apparently Tsugumi's dream sequence about her and Akane. Naked. Wrapped in white sheets. And floating against a backdrop of A GIGANTIC PINK SWIRLY SPACE-VAGINA.

So Tsugumi manages to include extremely unsubtle lesbian imagery in her dreams even when she's dreaming about a naked boy. That is IMPRESSIVE.

( And it gets better! )

Also: Yes, yes, I know that I skipped the recap for chapter 6. Sorry, but real life got in the way. Oh well. There's no point in going back to do it now, and I'm sure that life moves on for all of us. ;)
