This looks less like an airplane and more like a cruise ship to be honest.

It seems Servachok only posts the little stories in Russian to his illustrations on Pixiv, so this one didn't have it. I brought it over, and it does seem he's talking about a ferry (and not an airplane). It's not a slice-of-life dialogue this time, and is short and metaphorical though, so who knows if that's what's meant to be depicted literally.

If it's a plane, it's small (like a business jet) and it's not clear if there's any ground clearance. If there is it's low to the ground. It's blurry though so it's hard to tell. If there isn't any a boat makes much more sense. However, I'm not sure I've ever seen a boat with that kind of small doorway and short steep stairs like that for a gangway. It seems a little odd to park a car that close to either one.

    I think this might actually be gameplay mechanics?

    I think the joke is that rather than singing normally, she’s effectively using Roar Of Time. So the dragons can’t take it well - it’s a super-effective attack - but mama is normal type, and less affected.

    Oh yeah, the Ronald McDonald characters used to be a thing, didn't they?

    As I recall, McDonald's had to prune several characters from the roster after they got sued for ripping off H.R. Pufnstuf. Not sure why they stopped using the rest of the characters in their playgrounds and advertising, but I'd guess that someone in marketing decided that costumed fast food mascots aren't cool enough for today's youth.

    A large part of this is that over the past 20 years, public opinion and even the laws of several countries have turned against marketing fast food to children. It's not quite at the point where continuing to use these characters would be illegal (at least, I don't think it is), but a lot of places are seeing the writing on the wall and quietly shoving anything overtly kid-oriented under the rug.

    Is this Igon somehow mistaking Messmer for Bayle "WHITE WHALE HOLY GRAIL" style?

    What I love about this manga is that she's not overpowered because of any special ability, but because of how badass she was in her world and how that power transfer relates in her new one. It makes her more down to earth because her broken abilities were earned, instead of given.

    Poor Grumpy Nun. At least with the ducks she is never alone and they are there to comfort every Nun.

    Clumsy Nun: "Bring me to my mother, you motherduckers!"
    Ducks: "Yes, Clumsy!"

    Bunny Nun: "You don't want to go in there."
    Blocking Duck: "I thought it was bad as it came out of Hungry's mouth but it is even worse when it comes out of the backdoor."

    Smug Nun: "Baby Clumsy?"
    Duck with Binoculars: "For losing the baby, Star Nun will present you with many red stars for this duck-up, Smug."
