Another week in the books. Let’s chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.
Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).
Last week, I picked up the car ad disguised as a manga: Otherworldly Overnight in the Car: Outrunner PHEV
Given such a dumb premise, I went in expecting rubbish, but was pleasantly surprised.
The protagonist is actually capable of introspection, leading to character growth.
I found it kind of sus how he seemed to be getting a harem of underaged girls when he’s of age (I just ignored it for my own enjoyment). Thankfully there are other ladies now in the recent chapters. Also, looks like the manga would be doing some time manipulation shenanigan to age up the young girls.
P.S. If I have a nickel for every manga I’ve read in which a blue hair loli has issues with verbal communication, but then encountered the male protagonist who improved her situation through the use of an electronic device, I will have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.
The other such character is

Shizuka from 100 girlfriends
P.P.S. I wonder if the author received any sponsorship from Mitsubishi
