It’s very funny to read about all these new manga which get canceled for their slow beginnings and then catch up on World Trigger, which might be the slowest major shounen manga of all time

Basically, long-running series can afford being slow, but new, unproven ones can't. It's easy to forget about it now, but the beginning of World Trigger is pretty fast-paced too.

Curious to see how Golem Hearts guy's next manga works out. For some reason they give me similar vibes to the guy who made Red Sprite and Iron Knight; someone who is skilled at making/drawing shounen manga but doesn't really have what it takes to stand out and make it in WSJ.

idk I can appreciate world trigger sticking to its guns but I really wish literally anything happened in it

what was even the plot again? they've been trying to get on the away mission for so long and I had hoped that finishing the ranked wars would have gotten the plot finally moving again

They are going to spend 2 irl years in front of computers talking. Super boring and useless unless all these people are going and we learn all about how they think.

Anyone checkout Show-ha Shoten?

I liked it. It was funny and sweet.

Edens Zero - Racist Grandpa ruins everything, film at 11.

That said I don't think Ziggy's walk that one off. Or, at all once Shiki gets his hands on him.

Are we reading the same thing?
What is there for Zggy to walk off from other than losing his head which didn't do anything?

Sorry, bad phrasing. I mean after that, the question is less Shiki eventually killing him and more how wide the splash zone is going to be.

Theyre not on the same planet. Nero warped the bombs to where Shiki and co. are, then Ziggy stole the warp power and activated the bombs himself with it.

I wonder if the fallout from this arc will stick. Weve already had the one mulligan before, plus Rebecca's future sight scene.

Besides the whole todo with Draken, the time leaping hasn't been much a thing and death has been pretty much for keeps.

Hell, the read I get is that timeline hopping is what got us this version of Ziggy (both alive and a massive robo-supremist prick) in the first place.

Ironically, the amount of death overall was kind of at normal levels until the characters tried to stop dying.

Well, minus that one planet that got time-ate. That one was just about a complete write off.

I kind of have to admire how Red Hood managed to make its ending be 'the real adventure starts now' somehow. It sucked rear end, but you gotta appreciate it.

I do actually kinda appreciate it. Red Hood basically going I don't want an ending I just want to continue is kinda depressing, but better than going "Everyone live happily ever after" or "Everyone dies the end"

my posts are as bad the Current Releases review of Gone Girl

Sakamoto Days: The Order continue to be hilariously terrifying and also they appear to be getting rid of the one thing I didn’t really like about the manga, Taro conveniently becoming a bishonen every time the fighting gets serious

Witch Watch had a pretty funny take on going fast and Mashle this week has some classic Mash.

Yeah, if this had been around as a motive earlier, the manga might have had a chance. Basic motivations are important, as it turns out.

Elusive Samurai: God, the Hoshino dudes are fun. Especially the psychopath. Love that man. Wish I could have that kind of passion burning within me.

Mashle: This arc just keeps getting funnier and funnier. loving billiards. The bad jokes were funnier in the illegal Korean scans though... Also got a banger of a quote from Mashle at the end there.

Red Witch: I haven't read it yet.

Robocco: Relatable.

Sakamoto: drat, some really nice and creepy art in this chapter. Nagano feels hella intimidating. Guess it's up to Apart to prove that the death row inmates aren't complete mooks!
