I had actually watched this a couple of days ago after it "leaked"

The thumbprints from Rumiko Takahashi's Maison Ikkoku are all over this setup, even our male protagonist is given room #5, the same number as MI's male MC.

Even some of the eccentric tenant characters have some parallels, most notably with the unemployed businessman character, the pink haired idol character is a new less alcoholic twist on the red haired bar hostess from MI.

The female MC, is an alien princess searching for "the key", an artifact that allows her to claim the throne of Wid(o) which is supposed to be somewhere in this structure, but they don't know what it looks like.

This makes our male protagonist overhear and mistakenly believe that she's a widow, which would be drawing a parallel to MI's female MC.

The comic timing has some punch, standard sexually awkward situations.

The art is fantastic!

The name of the inn was Asunaro Lodge, but parts of the "na" hiragana な fell off, leaving parts that look like a katakana "to" ト

The title of the show, Astro Note, is a pun on the on sounds for "Astronaut" which are just about the same.

Not bad, but I'm this is not the kind of show that I stick with.

@[email protected] Let's see which image you choose...

Done! Decided to go with the character shot because I liked how the thumbnail looked better.

Ah, I was hoping to test what the automated image choice would pick...

So you're saying the automated image choice would have been the sign?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Nothing automated about the screenshots. It's all done manually by me. I was worried about the possibility of abuse from users trying to get the bot to post NSFW or spoilery images.

I also assumed it was automated, but that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for putting in the work and keeping the community friendly!
