Terra E
Terra E was one of the first anime I genuinely liked, so it feels weird to revisit the manga like 7 years after. It actually brought back a lot of buried emotions and memories, eh.
The manga definitely feels more "yay" and... goofy so far, especially Jomy character. He doesn't seem to have a relationship with his parents in this, which I liked in the anime and created a more melancholy atmosphere. The manga definitely makes a better job at showing how messed up and totalitarian their society is, however.

Not being an idiot makes her the most dangerous person in this series yet. Kuromine's got his work cut out for him.
One Punch Man (Murata) latest
Don't think we've seen Saitama this introspective before. Unusual time to do this, especially after these PPP scenes with his cellphone up his butthole, but I mean sure, why not.

Well, Asahi has quite the challenge ahead. The past principle besides not being an idiot, is also not a nice person.

Fuuka 158
That was the most useless and unecessary backstory, particularly to introduce some uninteresting character.
This series can't end soon enough.
Attack on Titan 94
The timing of the anime worked really well with this flashback, it works as a nice fold to what's happening there, and we get to see a bit more about the kind of indoctrination suffered by those living there.
His mom realising he was talking positively of those in the island was a nice touch.
Kingdom
Kind curious with the strategy of leaving the left flank so badly out numbered.

Got boring really fast, imo.
If there is a spin-off, where the brother trying to quietly spy on his little sister dating, it will be wonderful to read as well.

Oh shit she's not an idiot! He's doomed.
Though it means Akane admitted that she's an idiot as well, didn't she?

At least Yoh isn't doing anything rash for now.

Madoka - Maiko Magica (SFW short)
Densetsu no Yuusha no Konkatsu 4
That's one hell of a guardian angel/devil to have watching over you. Killing someone and reviving them over and over is now on my list of approved torture methods. Apparently (raw spoilers)
Shut up and take my Homu. I'm sure the faceless figure spreading fake news about her nighttime activities is Sayaka. Though even if it were true, if it's for the sake of securing Madoka's first time then it's understandable. Maitake must be a mind reader, because I am indeed looking forward to the touching finale (coming never).

she's adopted / not blood-related + there's a fair probability that she wants his sword, which is great, because after this chapter I'd have a hard time accepting anyone else as the true route.
But he already gave away his sword to his merchant friend at ch3.

I don't know why it took 5 chapters, one of which I'm not sure actually exists to introduce that random guy.

Holy shit, they managed to tie in E=mc^2. Time to update the GODA image with Inagaki.
Doesn't look like we're done with the flashback, wonder what revelation the rain brings?
One Piece
Good end to the flashback. Seems like the chef is the one responsible for her turning into such a shit bag -- if only she had met a savior akin to Shanks or Zeff instead.
I wasn't surprised that the assassination failed but the mirror breaking threw me for a loop. We have might actually have an incoming casualty and this arc might actually end with an escape and regroup for round 2. I suspect we'll revisit BM at the same time as Oda does Elbaf.

Now that its out of the cancellation worry zone, I think its starting to actually get interesting enough to keep reading.
One Piece ch. 868
Well, yeah, of course nothing panned out. Everyone being completely shocked over the broken mirror and Jinbe's got this "well ... goddamn shame that just happened" expression, heh.
It's decent. The goofy humor works for me.

Magical Grandma Girl - up to ch10
I don't know if this gag manga-style plot is going to stay interesting for long, but it's kind of hilarious how we now have a magicalboy girl who just asked grandma out on a date.
The world god only knows - ch1
This looks like it's going to be somewhat trashy, but I've already caught up on the other manga I was reading on the app, so I might as well give it a try because it's entertaining enough (and is considerably easier to read since it always uses furigana for spelling kanji, even for common words).

The protagonist being a VN freak who's been roped into getting RL girls to fall for him does feel pretty trashy as a premise, IMO. It's still mildly entertaining though, so I'll probably be catching up on it while I wait for more Helck and Slo-mo chapters.
One Piece
She did it
She seriously did that
I was seriously doubting that she did it last chapter because that would be insane and Oda's known for his twists lately "sike she didn't actually do it" but she freaking did it
Well it's not like he can show it really at all. Shonen Jump would block it.
A little bit of blood on the table or on the clothing wouldn't have been that outrageous... we've seen blood time and time again in Jump series.

Hell One Piece has gotten really bloody before, so I don't think it's a censorship thing.
One Piece
i wonder if she got her fruit because she ate her or because she ate a fruit (like inside the cake) that transformed after she killed her by eating her.
To be honest though it's still not 100% that she did it. I can still see something like "everyone who saw it thought that's what happened but it didn't actually happen" sorta deal, if Oda wants to do something bigger with Caramel later. there's gotta be SOMEONE out there who's combing the whole manga right now to search if we saw one of the kids alive and older in present time, that would mean she didn't do it. I'd only say I can believe it's 100% confirmed by virtue of never being debunked in the manga (until the manga ends), because holy crap the imagery would be like orders of magnitude worse than Attack on Titan

Akuma no mis "respawn" somewhere in the world when the user dies, the only way that would make sense for Linlin to immediatly have access to Caramel's powers is if she ate her and that somehow granted her powers. Besides that, there would be no reason for her to be demonized by the giant that saw what happened unless she did something horrific in her birthday party.
There was a dark stain or two on the ground at the end of the last chapter when it happened.

Shokugeki no Soma 218
As soon as the rebel team for the second bout was unveiled, it became super obvious we would be getting Kuga vs. Tsukasa and Megishima vs. Rin. The results are just as obvious too.
I think it would've been more interesting if we got Mimasaka vs. Eizan though for a former subordinate vs. master match, especially after Tsukasa mentioned Eizan was itching to fight.

They don't just respawn randomly, their power transfers to a nearby fruit. We saw this happen when Smiley died on Punk Hazard. It might not be guaranteed though since Caesar made sure to have a whole sack of fruit nearby, presumably to maximize chances.

Poor Saitama is depressed but as allways it's nice to have him be the focus of his own manga
Dr Stone 14
A bit more fun than last week (lol at his reaction when the first experiment doesn't work) but felt just as pointless as last week. At the end it seems like we might go back to the present next chapter which is good
Attack on Titan 94
I'm liking this arc more now that Reiner seems to have turned into the focus. The scene at the table was great.
Also, that dude without a leg that was among the hurt is totally going to be Eren, right?

Seems obvious its going to be a reverse sweep.
And holy hell DTL is going to lose it over the Kuga stuff in this chapter.

Ah, I completely forgot about that. Still, in that case it's pretty weird considering we didn't see any fruits on her birthday croquembouche

I still think the power transferred because she ate Caramel, but am open to the possibility that there's more to the situation than meets the eye.

Stalking is wrong, unless you're a regulated yandere. I was half right about him being senpai's husband. Well, 28% right maybe.

TWGOK is fantastic for the arc's where it sticks to its initial set up.
Yea, it's pretty great. It sounds super trashy as a premise, but it doesn't read that way at all. The only issue is the final arc and the rushed ending.

A lot of us are subscribed to viz shonen jump it's less then $30 for a years worth of manga. A crunchyroll sub also gets you a bunch of weekly/monthly manga like attack on titan, 7 deadly sins, and fuuka.
You can buy volumes from viz on their shonen jump app, or a bunch of digital stuff from a variety of publishers on comixology.
Other ways we can't discuss here for obvious reasons.
I get that, I like to support anyways. I grew up with piracy but as I grew older, I started to prefer better quality.

We Never Learn is bad though. It's the most generic rom-com with the stockiest stock characters to ever be stock.
MC = Generic, unassuming type. But he's a nice guy, so all the hottest girls in school are practically frothing at the mouth to get at his D
Generic Girl 1 = Tsundere
Generic Girl 2 = Perfect Japanese Flower
Generic Girl 3 = Genki Girl/Childhood friend
The premise isn't even interesting.
