Kotonoba Drive discussion

What do you think of Kotonoba Drive? I think it's nice...

what?

It's good. I feel like it has more in common with Aria than YKK, in that it follows a mystery-per-chapter format.
I never finished Kabu no Isaki, but I'm looking forward to continuing Kotonoba Drive.

>>3Kabu no Isaki is really mysterious but good.

any YKK fans reading this? i really like how minimalist hitoshi's artwork became. the story is still mysterious after 30 chapters

>>7Yep, I prefer it a lot to Kabu no Isaki; think it captures the spirit of the mysteries much better. It's easily as relaxing as YKK to read.

Yeah, I think its nice too.
New chapter when?
10 Name: Anonymous : 2017-02-28 14:12
Roselia releases them steadily, seven chapters until the end. I hope Ashinano's gonna make a new series next year.

I just started reading this last night, after meaning to get around to it for a while. It reminds me of stopping to sit and relax while walking home from work.
I love the art, too. It's simple but beautiful.

Every time I see this thread, I think it says ``Konosuba Drive''.

>>12I keep wanting to pronounce the title as "Kotonaba Drive" and I don't know why.

I think this is one of the most relaxing manga I've ever read. I'm gonna miss it after we get the last chapter.

>>15Wow, I didn't know there was a name for this. That's interesting. Thanks!

Waiting warmly for the last volume to arrive.

>>17Yeah.
On the one hand, I don't want it to be over. But, on the other hand, there's only a few chapters left.
19 Name: Anonymous : 2018-02-05 13:50
chapter 30 is out from Roselia Scans! 31 soon

>>19Does Ashinano have a project lined up after this, or is this looking like his last?
21 Name: Anonymous : 2018-02-09 12:28
>>20There hasn't been anything new yet, but between kabu no isaki ending and this one starting there was a 1-2 year pause as well I believe. Afterword of the last volume didn't make it sound like this was his last.

The last few chapters are finally translated.
23 Name: Anonymous : 2018-03-20 23:29
>>22Finished it now.
Such a good manga. Ashinano really knows how to present simplicity. Those basic unnamable fleeting feelings that you never know when They'll appear.
I'm happy now.

>>23I read one last night, and I might finish it tonight.
I think I may try to stretch it out and savor it.
25 Name: Anonymous : 2018-03-21 16:56
reread it from the start yesterday. i used to think the art got too minimalistic but i take it back - Ashinano is a master of panel composition
26 Name: Anonymous : 2018-03-21 20:05
>>25I love the panels without dialogue in them. they really convey the magic of Suu-chan's experience.

>>25His panelling is great, there are seldom more than 3 panels on the same page, when there needs to have more he doesn't outline it but uses the lateral space of the page.
