Apocalypse no Toride: I don't think anyone didn't see the betrayal coming a mile away but I'll admit I was not expecting them to be some sort of strange cult who thinks the zombies are angels.

I just binged through what's out of Boku dake ga inai machi and goddamn, why does this have to be a monthly series? I already wait 2-3 months for a new chapter of Kaiji, I don't think I can handle more waiting. Really enjoying it though, I cant wait to see what happens next.

Five whole Kaiji chapters droppin' out of nowhere. Maybe this is the start of us actually getting chapters more than twice every three months regularly now. (probably not.)

It's a shame really. I think it had some interesting ideas at the start and I might keep up with it every now and then as new chapters release but it really is kinda bad.

More Kaiji! I'm loving this new release schedule, especially since something big is bound to happen soon.

Wookie Bouquet posted:Read up to Chapter 17 on http://blackinque.imgur.com/ so that I have someone to yell with how hosed up this poo poo is. You weren't kidding when you said they completely changed Nagai's character. It's frustrating because they could have totally made that work if they stretched it out over a longer period of time with him being more and more calloused but goddamn that was an awful execution... Also, no you can't loving have the character be all sympathetic and wanting to help people then bandage it as "no you see he was always selfish and doing those things throughout his life simply for himself!" out of the blue like that.

TheFallenEvincar posted:Either way with Ajin, which I might just continue following in the near future just to see how things shake out, I think we have a much better similar sort of story unfolding with Tokyo Ghoul (character is a special "other" who is being hunted down by the government and is now unwillingly thrust into the world of these non-human beings). Ended up binging this, pretty interesting although it took a while for it to get going. However if he forgives the chef guy I don't think I could continue with it. Kid is way too gullible even for an anime character, especially for one that's supposed to be 18! Which speaking of he looks way too young in my opinion. Are there any other good manga about someone being sort of tossed into the "bad guy" role/side? Modern is a plus.

Two more Kaiji chapters! Really nice to see them being churned out at this rate...Although it's funny how you can tell just how far behind we are because this volume's cover has an ad for s2 of the anime.

My only problem with Zero was that parts 1 and 2 are so detached from eachother, I'm guessing part 1 wasn't terribly popular or something.

Bad news for the like four other people in this thread who read Kaiji, FKMTKrazy decided to drop it to focus more on Akagi. Some anonymous guy in the comments said he'd take over for them so they're giving him the raws and their typesetters and cleaners are willing to help him out but I'm not too hopeful. There is no Zawa big enough for this turn of events.

Just started reading Usogui and it's pretty good. It's a gambling manga at its heart but you can really tell the author loves drawing fight scenes because there are quite a few and they all own. The art is pretty great too.

Update on the Kaiji situation.FKMTKrazy posted:I don't think it would be right to just pretend the discussion in the comments last post didn't happen, so I guess I'll address it. The reason why I implied I wanted to focus on Akagi more than Kaiji is for several reasons, but most importantly because I just feel like Akagi is a better read per-chapter at the moment. Those of you who don't get mahjong probably can't see how, but I feel that, even though both series are going at roughly the same pace at the moment, Kaiji is just focusing solely on hitting home one idea really really hard while managing to throw hooks in an the end, while in Akagi there's a new development every chapter that they analyze a ton.

Has anyone read Tenkuu Shinpan? I saw that it's apparently written made by the guy who originally started Ajin, which was promising but turned to poo poo because of the writer switch. Don't really feel like getting into it if it's garbage though.

Kengan Asura is about corporations hiring people to fight each other or something its only got 2 chapters so far but has 12 volumes I was going to pass on this initially but the MC being the middle aged spineless loser manager instead of the mary sue fighter has me intrigued.
