I love it too. One of the best I have used. Although manga and slang can 
still be a pain ;-) But, they are not covered anywhere yet. I am sure 
jisho.org (and plugged into my laptop) will be among the first to give 
an answer. My latest edge test case is: "把罪" used in a manga to refer to 
a guy who was collecting girlfriends. (Well he wasn't but his classmates 
all thought he was.)
