What I most remember about it is that the author did another story with the same sub-title about a high-powered career woman and the random dude she dates who eventually overcomes his insecurities about being a house husband.

Hm, i flipped through it to find the concert scene again, but i must have confused it with a different (and from what little i caught flipping, probably much better) manga.

I wish I could get back onboard World Trigger since it's a rare shounen whose combat seemed "smart" (at least comparatively speaking) but it feels like there's like 200 characters to keep track of and 60% of them look the same

Great news! Its on indefinite hiatus so you can take as much time as you need to catch up.

I vaguely remember reading one of the series this author did. IIRC, a girl catches a disease that causes her to age backwards (she reverts to being 11 years old or close to it) and the only way to prevent her from becoming a baby is to have a very deep kiss with a specific man every day. And I think the man was in a relationship with his boss.

Regarding Kengan Ashura, it's cool that the author made a Street Fighter crossover manga, I'd like to see that. Looks like some of his character designs were influenced by Street Fighter:

Man, Isabella has friends in some really high places. Shoulda seen it coming, since everyone important is always related somehow, but the manga's pretty decent at showing various characters constructing schemes and shooting them down in (to them) unexpected ways.

Yeah, it's always been pretty decent but i've particularly enjoyed the last few chapters.

Sister Krone ended up being a better character than I expected. I thought she was just going to be a minor stooge who wasn't as smart as she thought she was to give the kids someone to beat before they escaped. But she ended up being pretty interesting and effective, even sympathetic in some ways. Sad to see her go.

the mangaka of murder princess (among other things) has started a new series. it is about a boy detective who fakes all the deductions and such normally associated with that role because he can see ghosts. the ghosts point at their killers.

Ha ha ha, I love it. The ghosts point in the direction of the murderer, so he always carries around a high-powered laser pointer on a tripod that he can set up to see exactly where the ghosts are pointing to if they're too far away.

While it's Korean, I've recently been catching up on Noblesse and I wish they would bring back some of the comedy from the earlier chapters. For some reason I always found the whole "Seira has a crush on Shinwoo" subplot funny/cute but it hasn't come up in a while due to all the shounen battles. Same goes for a lot of the scenes with Raizel and the kids and the kids always inferring what they think Rai is thinking. The battles have also reached a point where no one but the Noblesse himself has a chance against the stronger enemies, though at least his stamina problems make it reasonable for the other characters to have to face off against the small(er) fries.

Even though it would have been super cliche, I would kinda hoping at one point that the one experimenter lady would have abducted Shinwoo and given him powers of some sort, just because it would have given the kids an excuse to be involved in the plot again.

after this arc will over there will be the customary 3 chapters before they move on. its the constant needing to end on cliffhangers i'm not fond of just have a big battle and show frankenstein powering up before the start of the new one instead of pretending he's dead

"To You, The Immortal" (Fumetsu no Anata e) is super good and interesting so far. The story is fascinating and really unique. To be honest I like it more than Koe no Katachi so far.

It's obvious it's heading in the direction of the immortal creature changing, and I actually like how alien it feels.

"Immortal character actually just wants to die" is probably the biggest immortality-related trope, and it's nice to see a different take on a more alien immortal creature.

I have also hopped on the Promised Neverland train and yeah it's pretty entertaining. It's inevitable that there will be a shake up or change in the setting/scenario and that could make or break the whole thing, but at least right now it is very compelling.

The question is if it can maintain that tense, cat-and-mouse feeling after the poo poo really hits the fan.
