Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed shitposting.
I don't care about posting stuff that's read right to left (though would appreciate a notice) but please, please don't post 2 page spreads where you're supposed to read the left page before the right, but read the individual pages right to left.

It's still very weird formatting. Usually manga that's keeping the R-L format also has you read the right hand page first OR if it's mirrored, you read left to right. This is half-and-half.

I wonder who did make that pic and why. I'm pretty sure that they don't read that way on SJ.

Edit: It is pretty great though, I think I'm finally gonna take the plunge on Chainsaw Man.

As of right now Part One is complete but they haven't said when Part Two will start. They've been putting it out in collected volumes but if you're in America the best way to read it is by signing up for Viz's Shonen Jump service as it is just $1.99 a month and you have everything available from the get go. You also get access to a bunch of currently running and classic series like One Piece, One Punch Man, Demon Slayer, Dragon Ball/Z/Super and JJBA up to Diamond is Unbreakable.

The Shonen Jump app being so inexpensive just boggles my mind. They could most certainly get away charging a great deal more for it and I'm honestly surprised they're not charging more.

Yeah I honestly haven't even been reading manga recently but I let it roll because $2/month is a loving great deal for when I do want to hop back in.

The other bonkers part is how they're putting out current stuff literally days after it drops in Japan. No more waiting weeks/months for official translations or having to go through a scanlation group that adds a bunch of swears for some reason.

I'm pretty sure that WSJ official translations release simultaneously with the Japanese magazine release. Unofficial scanlations are done using raws scanned from magazines stolen from the factories, at least they were up till a few years ago and I can't imagine things have changed much. There was an incident years back now where an English speaking fan tweeted at Tite Kubo (the mangaka of Bleach) how much he'd loved the development in the most recent chapter, to which Kubo replied basically "That chapter hasn't even hit shelves in Japan yet, you loving pirate"

Demon Slayer time. Context, Tanjiro is fighting one of the 12 Kizuki who are the top lieutenants of the originator of all demons, Muzan Kibutsuji. Kibutsuji also slaughtered Tanjiro's family, leaving behind only his little sister Nezuko, who he turned into a demon. Something happened with Nezuko though where even though she's a demon she fights on the side of humanity and doesn't eat people.

I hope the rest of Demon Slayer gets animated. It was a really good read, and the production quality of the anime is super top notch.

Abandoned Reincarnated Sage - Chapter 1

tl;dr setup - Sage dies and reincarnates himself with a spell, he retains all his memories because ~isekai~. Gets abandoned by humans and is raised by Goblins. Orcs attack the village and this happens









Just straight up hook isekais up to my veins.

Demon Slayer is ridiculously popular in Japan. The movie, which came out in October and adapts the demon train arc, is the highest grossing film of all time in Japan. While the manga had a moment in October when the 22 collected volumes occupied the top 22 spots in a weekly sales chart.

So I think it is pretty safe to say that they're going to animate the rest of the story.

Do hope they fix up the issues that came later. The author was rumored to have had some personal troubles during the latter days of the manga that may have led to it feeling quite rushed.

Its pacing was honestly kind of all over the place. It felt like it was ramping up to a finish and had fairly well-paced arcs. Then the anime aired and it started rivaling one piece in popularity, so the ending feels really stretched out. Definitely curious to see what the author does next though.

It's his old element gun, except, well a LOT is happening in Ewings' GotG run. It's all great.

This chapter was preceded by a Barbarella-esque issue explaining what Pete went through immediately before turning up here. It's seriously all fun.

If you like that kind of thing, you might dig Undead Unluck. It's about superpowered rulebreakers; each of the protagonsts is UN-something. Undead is immune to death; the rule means nothing to him. Unluck triggers an improbable, unsurvivable act of random chance when she touches anyone. They're perfect for each other.

It's got a rough few starting chapters, but it quickly goes full-bore bonkers.
