I read it. I'm less excited now knowing it got moved to Jump NEXT, which was the same fate that happened to Beelzebub.

What's Jump NEXT?

A magazine that runs every two months. Mostly has one-shots in it, but it's where Beelzebub went after it ended. I assume the same happened with Soul Catcher(s) where it was still reasonably popular, but not popular enough that it got moved to Jump Next. That won't affect Soul Catcher(s) scanlations anytime soon though, since I think we're behind on a lot of chapters, but it does put a damper on the "ending" if it ends like Beelzebub did.

Essentially, though some end better than others. Nura had its last few chapters in Jump Next and I thought that series ended pretty well. Other series just get abrupt endings like Enigma did. No idea about Soul Catcher(s) though, since we're behind and it'll be a while before we notice it.

Help, I just devoured all 7 volumes of Ballroom e Youkoso, and now I feel strangely lonely when there's nothing more to read. Love the art in this.
It's nowhere near as tight as some of the other sports manga, but it's very pleasant to read and just soak in the atmosphere. Hope she gets to finish the story; sales don't seem to be popping much.

Sorry, I just look at the pretty pictures and imagine what they're talking about. Didn't someone just pick it up again? Seems stuff showed up pretty recently.

Maybe it's time to catch up with Chihayafuru. Think it was up to vol 7 when I last looked at it.

no group picked it up just some random people on tumblr. when i went to their tumbls it was just a bunch of yaoi pics and while there is nothing wrong with that, i would have really liked to know if they were going to keep scanlating the series or not.

Everyone should take a look at Dagashi Kashi. It's kind of a wacky little manga about the glory of Japanese sweets and junk food.

Being a manga, of course, it's really about people getting :ssj: SUPER FIRED UP :supaburn: about something really stupid!

I had opened up Spirit Circle when it was first recommended in this thread and it looked like some generic shonen fightmans comic so I put it off to read later.

Went back to it yesterday and now Im all caught up and :negative:

Spirit Circle isn't really shonen, is it? Seems like it deals with a lot more serious stuff than your average shonen. Also, a fair amount of pretty significant gore and dismemberment.

Would you mind explaining what it is you don't like about Spirit Circle (if that's what you mean here)? I'm only asking because I think it's really good and you generally seem to have really good taste in manga, so I'm curious about why you wouldn't like it.

Spirit circle is good but the future arc just dragged on way longer than it should have.

I thought it was well paced when you go straight through it, but waiting between each might have been tough when all the other stories have only been a couple chapters each.

Reborn is great as long as you stop after the Varia arc. I read it to the end and while there are cool bits scattered throughout mostly it just gets convoluted and dumb and has the worst non-ending to a shounen I've ever read.

I forgot about Reborn and for basically good reason. :(


I've read pretty much anything I can find. I forgot to mention Seven Deadly Sins, Magi, Fairy Tail, JoJo, World Trigger as well.

UQ Holder should hold me off for a bit though since Negima's later fights were pretty drat good.

Toriko is great. Currently everyone is waiting for a gigantic monkey whose balls just dropped (literally) to beat the poo poo out of an evil bird woman because she got in the way of him dancing with his ghost girlfriend
