I really enjoyed both JK and Act-Age when they were Jump Starts so I'm excited to be able to read them all with the new Shonen Jump without having to rely on inconsistent scans since I tend to forget they've updated or what happened since the last chapter with the latter.

Wait I missed a trick, are they adding JK and Act age to the lineup for WSJ Alpha V2?

Act Age is great.

It's probably my favorite of the new series that have been added this year.

If you must blink, do it now.
My favorite bit from Act Age (early on, at least) is how they refer to method acting in hushed tones, like it's some kind of forbidden technique.

That girl...it's like she becomes another person!

I do like that it's a less nasty Glass Mask at least so far. The director guy does kinda ignore that Yonagi is mentally ill in some way but he treats her well and gets along with her little siblings well too, so he comes off more short sighted rather than controlling and exploitative.

New chapter of Marry Grave
This time we end the flashback and jump right into a pretty odd twist. A young Marry and I think that's going to confirm some degree of cloning or genetic engineering on behalf of the order of gravekeepers

I am more surprised they didn't cleared why was Marry unable to use magic (and still is unable in the early-stages-of-search flashback), when she was able to use it in later flashbacks. I was almost certain the twist was she was pregnant which blocks the use of magic, but it would be probably mentioned (or visible) by now. As for young Marry clone, I think we'll have to wait, until there is more shown about her. Identical stranger is a cliche manga in general is pretty fond of, so I wouldn't go into cloning just yet.

Its because he is immortal. He can both make the best use out of any magical reagents, and also has had a long time to improve his magic abilities.

Oh, I forgot about the thing where he can make the best use out of reagant, though I feel like he had to consume the reagant or something (I need to reread the beginning).

The next chapter begins with Rizu leading Nariyuki to school on a dog collar.

I wonder why Nariyuki wants to turn down the recommendation. Isn't it just something to help him get into college (which would benefit him for most careers)?

It would mean leaving his mom and sisters is likely the logic

I'm not sure about that, since his whole motive for getting the recommendation was to make money to help his family, and nothing new has happened that would increase the need for him to be at home. It's also possible the recommendation is for a college connected to his high school (I think this is a thing for some colleges in Japan?), in which case he wouldn't even necessarily need to stop living at home.

vvv But the recommendation is connected to him helping the girls and he doesn't seem like the kind of character to stop it just because he's tired of tutoring them. Whatever dreams he has, unless he secretly wants to do sports or acting or something, is likely going to benefit from the recommendation.

Maybe he's just tired of always being the responsible one. And seeing his friends go out and follow their dreams, while he's stuck at home working his balls off in order to provide for his family is getting to him.

Jujutsu Kaisen chapters goes 1-3 for free, 4-6 for pay then chap 40 which I don't think the scans are close to. My last read was 31.

I do like the better reader though.

Yes, its thankfully not using flash anymore.

It seems to be a pretty good reader. Although, I do wish the grey bars at the top and bottom would go away in full screen mode. Also, I wish the manga descriptions would be a little bit more in depth than a single sentence.
