Manga Roulette #81

Deadline: 1st of April

Note that we're on a minimum of 2 volumes and maximum of 16 now :)

For those who don't know what this is, everybody will submit a manga of their choice and it will go to the pool with all the other manga. Then, everyone who submitted a manga will get a manga chosen randomly from the pool to read, and you have 2 months time to read it. You won't get a manga you've started already. Make sure your list is up to date to ensure this or post in this thread which manga you have read.

1) You may not add any of the following:

Hentai, or anything that's basically softcore hentai. Heavily graphic content is okay, as long as it's not the appeal.
Anything you think is bad. This game is not to make people read bad manga, but rather to give people manga to read that they might not normally read. I reserve the right to ban a manga from entry if I suspect that the person submitting it is trolling and ask them to use a substitute (this is not directly related to whether I think the manga in question is good or bad).
Anything you haven't read. You're not required to have finished the manga, but if you haven't read a significant portion of it, you cannot nominate it.
Anything from the previous two rounds of the roulette (or already nominated in this one).
Anything longer than 16 volumes or shorter than 2 volumes
Sequels. Nominate the first part, and only the first part. If they want to continue after the first part they are free to do so. I'll make an exception to this if a sequel is needed to make 20 chapters, then including enough sequels to make 20 chapters is okay. Spin-offs counts as sequels, so do prequels made after the original manga.
Doujinshi from a previously established universe (this MIGHT be okay if it exclusively uses original characters and doesn't imply you're familiar with the universe), or anything else that heavily implies you've seen or read something before.
Nothing that hasn't been translated to English yet (duh). You must provide a non-shady link to read the manga if someone asks for it.
No western comics. Manhua/Manwha/webcomics are okay, and they do not need a MAL entry.
No light novels. Light novels aren't manga. I don't care how many images they have. No japanese children's picture books or anything else someone eventually will argue is enough manga to be nominated but obviously shouldn't be allowed either.
Nothing that's incomplete. It does not need to be complete on MAL, but it needs to be complete. Sometimes MAL groups sequels together with the first manga, then it's still fine to nominate the first part.
If you don't have anything to nominate at all, you can still participate. I will add a random manga from one of the earlier roulettes to the pool.

2) You must read your manga within 2 months. The ideal is 1 month, but I know sometimes one just doesn't have the time to finish it, so you have 1 extra month without penalties.
3) If you add a manga that everyone else in the roulette already has read, I'll put that entry on a 5 months cooldown and pick a random manga from your list you rated at least 0.5 above your mean score. If that method doesn't get me a valid entry, I'll randomize something from an earlier roulette instead. I'll also do this in case you nominate something not allowed, and doesn't change it or explicitly withdraw from the roulette.
4) I reserve the right to change these rules at any time. I'm not perfect, don't try to abuse the rules just because I missed something. In any case, I will try not to apply rules retroactively if they don't benefit users, unless there's a blatant case of abuse.

Penalizations

Penalizations are in effective the month you drop your manga. You have 2 months to read your manga, and after that time it will be considered dropped. Dropped manga will get the maximum penalty according to how much of it you read before dropping. If you don't finish the manga before the deadline, you will get a 4 month penalty that gets reduced to a 1 month penatly incase you finish your manga. If you finish your manga your penalty will be reduced to the minimum (according to how many chapters you read in time). Note that penalizations doesn't stack and run out independently.
You can also declare your manga dropped during the month you got your manga instead of waiting for the time to run out. If you do that, you get a 4 month penatly that you can't reduce to a 1 month penatly, but it starts when you drop it.
Penalisation time is long, and sometimes you get something that you really cannot stand. You have the choice to say you don't want a manga (it's explained later in this post), although it's not unlimited if you haven't read/watched/played/whatever the source material or an adaptation. For situations like this, there is a points system. Every time you finish your manga or complete something in the intermittent roulettes, you will get 1 point. Points can be spent in a couple of different ways:

You can spend 2 points to watch the anime, read the VN, or otherwise experience the material in a different format than manga. This is only applicable if it's a complete or near-complete adaption if the manga is the source material. If the manga is adapted (not merely inspired) from a different source, you can always spend points to make the swap. I have to confirm this beforehand, so always ask.
You can spend 3 points to reroll your manga, ie you get a new manga that has been submitted sometime earlier in a roulette (chosen at random) that you have to read instead of the one you got
You can spend 5 points to just straight up skip your manga, meaning you don't have to read anything and still get no penalty

If you have watched the source of a manga and you don't want to read the adaptation, or if you have strong feelings of animosity against it (you have to say why, and I won't accept the likes of "I don't like the genre" as an excuse. I'll definitely keep in mind if you systematically try to avoid manga for no evident reason), please SAY SO before the randomisation starts. To say that, if you watched the source you don't need any specific format, but if you have other reason (strong feelings of animosity) you have to stress that you do not want the manga by either bolding or underlining the not. Once everyone gets their manga, the only reclamation I'll accept is that you already have your manga in your list or that you already told me that you didn't want it in a proper way. To make it 100% clear, I will NOT check anyone's anime lists, vndb, browsing history or other lists to check if you have read the source material of something, YOU HAVE TO WRITE IT IN THIS THREAD.

I'd love if you let me know in the comments that you finished your manga. That way, you can discuss it with other members (especially the one who submitted it) and it makes it easier for me to make the count.

I've been recommended a manga I already read (and marked completed). Is it possible to get something random? @Demonarion

@acloudwithfeet Oh sorry about that. I'll randomise something for you from one of the previous roulettes.

And you got Getter Robo

Finished it. Started off strong, but I feel it lost its way somewhere in the last few chapters.
Pretty decent overall !

Done! I don't think it needed a couple of the chapters near the end, mostly because this did not need that twist.
