I'm following it as my shot of sugar during low times and enjoy it as much as Chio-chan(for entirely different reasons). It gives me the same rush Denki did so that's good.

Man the prelims were just a jobber fest and round one of the fall tournament was essentially a joke match :|

I liked how memorable the characters were.
Training camps are fundamental, how else are they going to improve. The manga is based more on reality so they have to make it believable when players improve.
I don't think it is natural for a team to outright hate the Crows. Just doesn't make sense to hate a team who hasn't been relevant for years.
To make you happy,there are definitely some hostility towards certain crow players in recent chapters.

I don't hate training camps and I get why Haiku had such a long one, I just wish they could have broken it up somehow. The occasionally remembered girls volleyball team could have filled this role, or perhaps a "flash back" arc where the team watches a video of last years tournament to set up the team they played in the first two rounds of the fall tournament.
And the series could have had the perfect hate each other team with the guy who was harassing the manager girl... but then the match turned into a borderline joke match :|

Fuck yeah I love Cockatrices. There's something hilarious about a giant, angry, poisonous chicken that can also curse you to stone like a Gorgon.

Poor Marcille. Her misery brings me happiness, however.
Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san ch. 53 - 54
The friends walking by him in slow motion kind of cracked me up.
He deserved to lose his snack in the other chapter though. My god.

Satan's Secretary / Maou no Hisho 2
Man, this girl is poison and it's glorious. I kinda get where the demons are coming from, it's less enjoyable if you stomp the opposing side without prolonging their misery. Plus I'd prefer to see the star work her strategies in a drawn-out campaign.

Poor Marcille just can't catch a break. Good thing Laius has been pretty knowledgeable about this.
Magic is so lewd.

I was afraid for Qiu Tong for a moment here. Let's see Sun Jing make her comeback.
Chio-chan no Tsuugakuro ch22
At my workplace we have a fancy Jura coffee machine where you put in coffee beans, water and milk and it does pretty much everything. I looked it up and apparently it costs upwards of 5000 bucks, lol. The coffee world sure is crazy, but at least Manana is aware of some of it (save for the taste).
Damn it Steam, ruining yet another passion!

Well, she's the true demon lord after all.

Highschool of the Dead isn't dead... its living on in a different way...
Can you elaborate a bit? Did they find another author to continue the series?

Marcille despair is my source of happiness.
Chio-chan no tsugakuuro 22
Holy shit, that is one top quality service.
The moment he knew his customer is coffee noobs, he goes right in and turn them into sweet drink. MVP!
The bitterness of society... sensei said some really deep stuff.
Maou no Hisho 2
Secretary got no chill. I imagine if she's the main antagonist of a JRPG, game will be over by the time you get to your first inn.
It's cute.

How far did the Haikyu anime go? I know it at least covered the tokyo training arc based upon characters I've seen in the anime art style. I'm currently at chapter 140 the third set in the semi final rematch against Seijou.
It has adapted through chapter 189.

Just in case you're not aware, there's an OT for the manga

I've been waiting years for this. The one true ship soars into the sky.

Wait what ? Do Japanese usually use the same bathwater for family members ? Eeeew
Innocent Rouge vol 2
Coming back after a lengthy break, right into arc where a wife, at her deathbed, brags how she purposely derailed and ruined her husband's life is a nice and stark reminder of just what kind of story this is.
Also, I love Sakamoto's hatching. Its thin and detailed enough to for once look, even on monitor, like actual shading and not a bunch of thick scratches trying to imitate one.

So season 1 was introduction till the first loss to Seijou?
Second season was the tokyo training arc and prelims
Third season is the tournament I'm currently in?
You're pretty close. Season 1 and 2 are both 25 episodes. Season 1 ends after the first Seijou tournament match and season 2 ends after the second Seijou tournament match that you're on now.
Season 3 is just 10 episodes and is entirely the
Shiratorizawa match.

Cool I just finished the Seijou match
Haikyu ~148
Now that's what I'm fucking talking about. So far I had been kinda meh on this tournament since every match was a jobber match or almost a joke match. This rematch against Seijou is a textbook example of why you read sports shonen. A really fantastic rival you want to see defeated, back and forth action with everyone contributing on both sides, and of course the main character getting his big fucking hero moment at the end to save the day. Looking forward to seeing this finals match, wish more of shiratorizawa had been given a proper introduction besides their star.
Kubera is pretty good.

Come on, how can you say no to a face like that? There's no real mystery to these murders when precisely 1 suspect is introduced each chapter, but then that's not what this manga's about. It's about crazy people, with a female lead who's even more banana phone than the rest of them. And that pleases me.

The secretary is pretty cold hearted. Though this also shows why the demon side never wins, since they appear to be pretty soft. If they're not willing to follow through they shouldn't act all tough.

oh good i thought you were going to say it was too standard sports match.
I wish Oikawa had triumphed, the pain at being outdone over the one that had admired him and who had learned from him

In a sense it was "standard sports match" but it was incredibly well done and thanks to how volleyball works you can have far more believable changes of momentum.

Yeah Is Reiroukan Still Alive? is quite great, I'm sorta happy it's only 2 volumes long.
I really liked Trace, Kubera, Gosu and to a lesser extent Mujang (But that's just to scratch my Goryeo itch) in that order.
Dragon Half
Decided to randomly give this a read. It's a shortish gag manga about a half dragon girl and her 2 companions who go on a journey to defeat the demon king. Some decent laughs and fun characters made this a pretty good read. Dick Saucer is a 10/10 name for a love interest. The art is nice enough, though it's nothing special. If you're in the mood for a light read then I would happily recommend this.
