One year the romcom genre is booming with Yuuna, Bokuben, Kaguya, Toubun, etc The next year (2020) only Kaguya's still going strong.

Okay I know it wont happen but it would be hilarious if he actually died and the manga ended on a sudden super downer gut punch.

Chainsaw man is such an amazing series. It's such an odd premise that you think it won't work, but then it surprises you.

Chainsaw Man is so much better than it has any right to be. It's amazing how it has like such a bog standard shonen premise (hopeless orphan fuses with a powerful monster and uses it to fight other monsters for the government!) but it feels so grounded and down-to-earth. It's like the polar opposite of Samurai 8

Man I actually like Samurai 8 but I think the art just clicks with me and the story sucks but the backstory reminds me of Orion which I guess is giving me false hope. The whole princess thing is so insanely Kishimoto at his worst it feels like self-parody. It could only get worse if Ann's dialogue was delivered by a turd that lives in her sleeve.Oxxidation posted:denji shrugs off moral and existential crises like raindrops He doesn't bleat out he's protecting people because he's just and moral. He just does it. He says why he wants to punish someone and does it. You're right, it is so lacking in bombastic poo poo or pretension. He's so wonderfully direct. The manga just chainsaws right through all the bullshit that makes shonen a chore to read. Also the flashback in this chapter is something you might have missed, not three pages of a secondary character explaining powers in detail. I am really enjoying this manga.

Spider-man: Fake Red Continues to be great. I wasn't sure if I'd like Yu but he's won me over these past few chapters.  Kid's got guts even if he's way in over his head and it's only going to get worse from here. And he's got to learn some of the basic rules for secret identities Cover your battle scars don't roll up your sleeves to look cool

Some nice Denji and Aki bonding time in the latest Chainsawman chapter. Also a bit of character intrigue with Denji and a lead into Power getting more powerful. Good stuff!

I haven't read it, but it's funny seeing it advertised right next to Spy X Family on the Manga Plus website and both of them are described as one-of-a-kind.

It's been a fun read and the bomber assassin tweeting while he was dying had me laughing so hard. The only thing that's really holding it back right now is the protagonist.

I'm glad the protagonist is developing but he definitely needs a bit more character if he's gonna hold the series up. It is a lot better than I thought it was gonna be at the start though, I thought Siscon guy was the main joke but he's just one idiot in a family of them so that's better. Also the art is whatever but I find Mitama Security absolutely hilarious. It is very much my kind of humor. Him flipping around doing gun tricks instead of just shooting the dude in the first chapter just about killed me.

joh mitama stepped out of a 70s tv anime and i love it, the rest of the art is serviceable. i'm enjoying it but just kinda assuming cancellation will happen.

Act-Age is real good and needs more love. Though it's been steady rank-wise I think.

Now, I don't rate Nakaba that high for his art. His style is clear and easy to follow and everyone is distinct, but it's rarely particularly pretty. However, this chapter had some standout art. The destruction of the land is pretty detailed, the image of the Demon King is really great and Escanor grinning like a maniac always manages to give me chills. Also pretty epic that Diane just put him on a giant stone table. I love that Escanor is already starting to catch fire in the group shot. It's now time for Escanor to complete his "Kick the poo poo out of Meliodas'" family list. Estarossa [x] Meliodas [x] Zeldris [x] Demon king [ ]

I can't believe the flashback in jujutsu kaisen is still going. it's not that it's bad. I just still don't understand why it's happening at this point in the story in the first place also the latest chapter of samurai 8 is prob the best so far. not a very high bar but it does have some potential still

Chainsawman really is better written than it has any right to be Creepy, funny, creepy again and then just weirdly heartwarming Although they're more and more feeling like Contractors KittyEmpress posted:I don't get why people like Escanor so much. Though just to be clear I read sins because it pops on mangastream and I certainly wouldn't say the manga is good.

I stopped reading 7 Deadly Sins awhile ago because I decided it wasn't good and not worth the time each week, but the only character I really liked at all was Ban, because his fights were fun due to his immortality. Watching him get his poo poo kicked in just to scratch his opponent, then get up and do it again and again was pretty cool to me. I also have a soft spot for 'assholes who actually really do care about people'

KittyEmpress posted:I don't get why people like Escanor so much. He has the best smack talk and Nakaba seems to love drawing him larger than life as well. But I can see why other wouldn't like him so much, especially as he is directly tied to the point where the Mangas quality started going downhill. Chainsaw edit: Chainsawman was super sweet. But it felt like the art was rougher than usual
