New manga by Endo Hiroki (All-Rounder Meguru, Eden - It's an Endless World!) Chapter 1 released on 9/24, read the raws here: >www.moae.jp/comic/softmetalvampire/1/1
First impressions; pretty good. It's got some cyberpunk mixed with comedy and action. Tone doesn't seem quite as dark as Eden either. That isn't to imply it's not dark (because it is; entire class of highschoolers gets brutally massacred in the first chapter), I just don't think we'll be getting much prostitute girlfriend NTR and drug addiction in this one.
The leads are great. Seems the girl character is the primary lead; as such some shoujo tropes are comically incorporated (see pages 25-31). Male lead is very cool and hilarious too. Makes a great boke for the female lead's tsukkomi.
I get a huge Kiseijuu vibe too, and I wouldn't be surprised if Endo Hiroki drew some inspiration from it.
>Soft Metal So does anyone know what that's referring to? Gold? Lead? Quicksilver?

>battle love comedy by Hiroki Endo How the might have fallen.
Brody Sullivan
I thought it was referring to the genre of music by the same name.
Christian Carter
The characters look mostly the same as these from Eden.
Justin Ortiz
I don't get that feel at all. The first chapter seemed to be partially parodying lovecoms to set the reader into a lull before the action unfolds. Just a narrative trick.
Ethan Taylor
Gonna dump. Fingers-crossed for a moonspeaker to translate.

Also I find Endo's girls to be very attractive in a nice, plain way.

It's probably about the live action movie they're trying to make. I think I uploaded the issue, check the archives for a Mediafire link.

Look how his boner impaled her in
Leo Green
Good question.
Owen Campbell
So he is a vampire, right?
William Carter
Man i should finish Eden but fuck. After retard MC did some stupid shit to a character i cant remember all i could think was "oh cool, that cool prostitute whose the only character i like is gonna get brutally murdered now" and i stopped reading cause i really didnt want her to die
Thoroughly enjoyed Meguru, wish there was more fun MMA manga since Teppu was on hiatus for literal years and then she just canned it early with no proper conclusion
Dylan Cruz
The prostitute dying literally signals Endo starting a new manga but being too lazy to change the title.
Jonathan Phillips
Hange doll?

Gabriel Jackson
Eh. Her reaction to her dead classmates is weird. Also, perverted MC stuff has to stop as a trope.
Xavier Long
What if it was a perverted female mc?
Xavier Wilson
I've never seen a MC capable of getting visible erections before this manga. Also that's like saying "calm mc trope has to stop". I feel like at the end of the day you people just want Shinji Ikari as the protagonist for everything.
Cameron Rogers
>I've never seen a MC capable of getting visible erections before this manga For real?
Parker Kelly
Adam Archlight and Meliodas. I don't want shinji i just want a decent human being and decent human beings don't do this
Brody Anderson
You mean like every manga with a female MC?
Mason Butler
Nothing wrong with giving a JK a tummy rub. I was mainly just thinking about recent stuff because now that I think about it, all those ecchi comedies from the 90s-(mid)00s had boner spamming protagonists. Like GTO and Golden Boy.
Wyatt Carter
>"i just want a decent human being" >protagonist is literally not a human being
Endo Hiroki writing this manga like "Man, I wish I could use hydrogen...". Then this shit shows up on his feed and he cums his pants.
Leo Evans
I love this manga.
Hudson Ortiz
This seems a bit like Seikon no Qwaser.
Dominic Hill
except every ability user are vampire and there's no focus on orthodox Christianity?
Henry Cox
And without lactating virgins, rape, ntr, and yuri loli joousamas.
Ayden Collins
I think this count as rape and we will see that more often from now on.
Christopher Hernandez
As soon as he started fucking with a particular element it was the first thing I thought of.
Jack Stewart
It's not rape it's just retroactively having sex with a tsundere.
Anthony Edwards
Seikon no Qwaser is weird because the protagonist would be really alpha in lit any other manga, but the entire thing is scaled to make him beta, since all the other characters are just having sex and raping each other and sticking toys into each other's cunts. Meanwhile he just suck a titty.
Alexander Sullivan
I like the loli mistress with a doll. She is the most alpha of all.
Ayden Wright
Too bad her primary slavegirl gets raped and cummed inside by a filthy het.
Xavier Wright
I want Kurae to steal my gf.
Alexander Carter
His time spent writing MMA manga is showing.
Seriously What the fuck is happening here? Why is boner dude getting gunned down.
Holy shit is this Seikan no Quazer? Are we periodic element vampires? Is this chick's titty milk going to fuel their powers?
Ethan Diaz
Who goes against a metal bending vampire with metal guns?
Ayden Edwards
I think the powers are fueled by blood see and So a version of Seikan no Qwaser that you can tell your friends about without them thinking you're perverse for reading something where people power up from tit milk.
