Magu-chan is kinda winning me, I love this dumb gag Moriking enters a pet competition. Roboco is great. It feels like it has been a good week for the comedy mangas.

amigolupus posted:loving Yeah the lottery numbers were extremely cringeworthy but I don't mind them laying out in text that he treats all his profits as like... dirty mafia hush money or some poo poo. Because we know it is. If anything it makes more sense to me that he's scared to touch it. Though, I suppose the alternative is that he sees the enormous sums of money and just becomes an obvious garbage human like Walter White or Light Yagami, which could probably work?

The only dude I didn't remember was the mustachio'd Zen'in dude, but a reread of the entire series helped me remember. I still don't fully understand Domain Expansion/Amplification but I dig the story and mystery and most of the characters (except Mahito, Mahito must die).

Brought To You By posted:Hands down the best character in the revolution. It's not even a question. RIP to him because he has plot sickness Burning Effect is legit my favorite webtoon at the moment, and pretty much as been for the past few years, even now the characters are loving awesome and the moments toss at the heartstrings. I even made a Comico account and bought tokens or whatever Comico uses so I could read the author's previous work, "Control", which ties into Burning Effect (though not to the point where it's necessary, since the important bits are explained in Burning Effect), and blazed through that poo poo in a day. And then I ditched my Comico account cause I prefer the Naver/Daum method of payment to Lezhin/Comico/whatever's method. I wish they'd release it in a paperback format because I don't want to pay KRW 200 per chapter for the 40+ chapters I already hosed paid for. gently caress you Daum.

Ayakashi Triangle is...errr quite generic. It could be fun, but it's clearly flailing. Bone collection is still pretty fun. So maybe it'll find its footing as well. Mashle was great.

Shadowlyger posted:loving what? Since when?! its pretty recent edit: so this probably isn't the right thread for this but i have a vague recollection of someone in a battle manga having healing powers and staying to treat people as long as possible before having to fight. I forget if they were fighting for the heroes or villains. any idea wtf i'm thinking of or if i have imagined it? Jose fucked around with this message at 12:50 on Jul 6, 2020 |

It's been a while, but doesn't Tsunade in Naruto arrive late to a few battles because she's fixing Rock Lee's messed up spine? How mainstream do you think we're talking here, because I've not followed the really big ones much... Who's the white mage in Black Clover? Did Orihime ever get to fight, or did she just heal woulds off-panel?

I'm finally catching up on most of Jujutsu Kaisen (I'm at chapter 60), and I like how the girl member of the core "party" is very atypical for this sort of thing. There's a part in this chapter where the protagonist has to carry her in order to get away from an enemy (since he can obviously run much faster than she can), and the vast majority of shounen things would have a girl protest that in some way (but she just goes "thanks"). This series also has very well designed creepy monsters. edit: One thing I'm a bit confused about - are all the abilities characters are using things that they're born with, or can other people learn stuff like that guy's shikigami or the girls's straw doll abilities? Some abilities were mentioned as explicitly being bloodline things, but it's not clear with others. edit2: I like this scene where Fushigoro/Kugisaki are talking about how they shouldn't tell Itadori about how his actions indirectly lead to recent deaths, and it's immediately followed by Itadori telling Sukuna not to tell Fushigoro the same thing. This series is good at sort of subverting the expectations you'd normally have about the main characters based off of their introductions and character designs. This chapter where they meet with this girl from Itadori's school who has a crush on him is also great. I like how Kugisaki's phone icon is a nail.

I just read the Satoru flashback thing, and jesus christ. It's like the earlier thing with that kid all over again. edit: I'm caught up now. I'm pretty sure that Maki and Nanami were just casually killed earlier, unless that Shoko person can somehow heal having your body incinerated.

Roboco is really good. (Synaptic Destruction) Whats with the Jujutsu Kaisen ribbing though? Its good do more. Dolphin Copaganda kind of outlines its overarching plot but not really. But crimes of the 95 percent as a chapter title? COME THE gently caress ON. WHAT. Jujutsu Kaisen killing characters as fast as it can introduce them. I like this approach. Hello Android 17, 18.

Didn't give a poo poo to read cop manga this week. Still not sure on ghostwriter, just like every week. I was starting to get invested in how he'd improve White Knight, since the first chapter he did was slightly questionable, but then it jumped ahead six months?? I thought for a moment the series got canceled lol. Kind of a weird timeskip too, I would think him learning to improve White Knight while Aino worked on her new manga, but I guess maybe that's where it'll go now - the two manga vs each other. I really liked the "shadow" of his doubt talking back at him, why don't we get more of that?? Best week of Magu so far. Not amazing but had some good jokes. I audibly chuckled when Magu walked into the convenience store Roboco owns.

I'm reading more Undead Unluck (after having originally just read the first chapter) and this is surprisingly pretty good? The whole situation after they join that organization is pretty unique and is good at leaving me curious about the setting.
