>5'11" vs 6'0"

The chapter ends with a cliffhanger as usual.

Oh yeah, and Volume 2 is released in October

apartement men are suicidal?

>>281459137
>>281459160
Huh. I was assuming that apartment men were machines controlled by her or another person with a similar duty, but after reading this chapter it seems that apartment men are mutated humans like the collector, humans that are completely tired of killing people again and again to keep the cogs moving.

>>281459188
So the interior of the predecessor basically sends non-recyclable garbage to other points in time, right?

>>281459832
It's either other time a simulated reality or just a different floor might be the "basement" or something

>>281459188
>alternate/simulated reality/dimension inside stomach
>the sun expanding is a lie meant to trap the residents in a perpetual life/death cycle
Take your pick

>>281460397
realistic dealing with the sun expanding would be easier than to make something like the apartment

This is the only interesting manga in print

>>281458906 (OP)
What's this manga?
The name and this first page seem interesting.

>>281460516
We’re on chapter 14 and nobody knows what it’s about. It’s good for that reason.

>>281460516
people made an infinite apartment trapped in a cycle to deal with the sun expanding on something, girl becomes new landlord after her friends gets "recycled" by apartment man so she is exploring it

>>281458934
Not even an apartmentman can withstand the raw, unchecked power of a diehard fanbase

>>281460543
>>281460551
Seems cool, I'll go read the first few chapters and if it's good I'll be back, thanks.

>>281460397
All of the above. Somebody’s running a sim to test the perpetual apartment machine in advance of the world ending.

>>281460516
It's a story about one of the most under appreciated professions of our time, being a landlord

>>281460551
>infinite apartment
If this infinite apartment had infinite tenants would it be able to accommodate an additional tenant?

>>281460650
i don't see why not

>>281460650
Sure, let me run the numbers

>>281460397
Dimension inside a dimension, because I'm confident that the Vertical World still lives rent free in Tanaka's head

>>281459832
kek'd at the edit

>>281458906 (OP)
Dragon Manga is almost there to the end, after that we get the remaster?

>>281461693
>because I'm confident that the Vertical World still lives rent free in Tanaka's head
Well, it does

>>281458906 (OP)
>str vs dex builds

>>281459188
Thank you for posting.

>>281458906 (OP)
reading this

Bump

>>281460570
Alright that was pretty cool.
I like it outside of the MC, she's too retarded, she's a kid so I can let it slide somewhat but it's annoying regardless given their situation that she keeps on being stubborn.

>>281458962
Apartment Man DESTROYED with facts and logic.

>>281461947
i wonder just how far hes taking the parallels.
omega=bertie
collector=kelvin
director=zupa
perhaps...?
bertie getting recycled like omega being sacrificed is definitely the most solid one imo.
maybe he as the non landlord twin is part of some cycle that perpetuates the apartment

>>281465685
At this point I'd be surprised if the apartment wasn't made of recycled humans the same way the Omega clones became the tower

>>281465429
>I like it outside of the MC, she's too retarded, she's a kid so I can let it slide somewhat but it's annoying regardless given their situation that she keeps on being stubborn.
With how much mystery is surrounding the landlord's lore I wouldn't be surprised if there's a reason for her to be like that, like the Arx Fatalis protagonist being an emotionally stunted blank state had an explanation in the story
But I wouldn't be suprised if she's just like that too

>>281468275
>landlord's lore
I meant role but this works too I guess

>>281459188
This isn't ending soon, right?

The sales for the first volume are okay and Tanaka is storyboarding chapter 20 already so I think it's safe for now.

I'm guessing the Chairman and all his buddies at the council wormed their way into the system when it should have originally just been the Landlord at the top followed by Apartment Men + Collectors underneath followed by regular people, because why the fuck is there a council when every single important decision is up to the Landlord and the Landlord only?

>>281469195
well that makes more curious about what happened to the previous landlord

>>281469411
If even the Apartment Men want this cycle to fucking end and some random kid was 500 years old, they're probably all tired and want the entire building to be destroyed.
The landlord probably also initially got tired of it and wanted to end things.
It probably goes like this
>OG Landlord does his own thing
>council happens
>"man I'm tired of this eternal cycle of suffering we gotta end it"
>they knock him off and recycle him
>reincarnates as new factory reset landlord
>they get too curious about the apartment and start exploring it
>"man I'm tired of this eternal cycle of suffering we gotta end it"
>repeat

>>281469512
I wonder how the council got the AM to recycle the landlord if the AM are not bound by the council
Before this chapter I thought the AM might have been in cahoots with the council but the guy's reaction to Risky was strange. Maybe he just hit his head too hard and remembered his original programming

>>281469606
I think the landlord's dumbass gave them approval to get authority to rule all 50 non-decimal floors and that's why and how they got to do a lot of things for their own benefit, because they made it a point that some things only work in their world if you have approval from the landlord like that magic gun.
The apart men can still kinda do their own thing though if they want or get into weird circumstances like the dude that just made fried rice for the dead kid.

>>281469512
Maybe that's what the Collector meant by "shaking up" here >>281459114
Although just it all doesn't feel too optimistic to me

>>281469841
>just it all
*just ending it all

>>281460452
>>281460397
An apartment building (spaceship) without the time freezing but with with a huge solar sail slowly being pushed out of the solar system would have been easier. Would have millions of years to leave before the sun became a problem too.

>>281460650
They have infinite space and matter but not infinite time, which limits the first two.

>>281458962
The Director is FAT!!!

>>281459051
I'd trust her instincts.

>>281459188
Thx mate.
