One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
Dungeon Meshi Daydream Hour 2

Clearly the artist (who is a woman, didn't know) put a lot of thought into designing the creatures in the world, even if they only show up briefly.

She is the savior Japanese D&D fantasy needs.

Laius is only 23!
 
Can anyone remember the name of the manga (based on the light novel) where a student is reincarnated as a spider (In a fantasy world). I remember someone going on about it, what felt like a while ago.

What's worse than one chapter of FT?
Right, two.
Although I had a good chuckle at the He really believes that, huh? line of Lucy, great face she made there.

I keep forgetting when/why did Acnologia gain a human form? What exactly makes him scary enough that even Zeref considers him a threat? This plot is harder to follow then the Star Wars prequels.

Acnologia was a human originally that transformed into a dragon. I guess he's the strongest Human/Dragon thing that can kill everyone.

I seriously hope Fairy Tale is ending after this. It feels like it, but MASHIMA Hiro probably likes money way to much to end shit until after the money runs out.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

Dragons were people. Or something.
 
According to spoilers, eventually. As of now? Just a super cool spider.

I was going to go read the light novel of it... then remember how much of a pain starting one of those is. Manga is good though, tad goofy but fun all the same.

Smoky B.B Ch1-14: Read this ages ago and quite enjoyed it, saw there were new chapters translated so I re-read it all from the beginning. Long story short it's a Baseball manga (something I usually don't enjoy...) based around a high schooler who has a large debt and is thus bribed to play for a failing team, though what really does it for me is the art and characters. Both of which I find really fun to look at.
 
I certainly like Kumo Desu Ga better than the Slime one because the Slime Guy pretty much eats a dragon and gains god power immediately whereas the girl in Kumo Desu Ga is a mob-trash tier character and is only capable of succeeding because she's pretty smart and uses her abilities to her advantage; she's almost died A LOT so far and almost all her victories have been hard fought or skin of her teeth

How much have you read of it?

EDIT: Ohh wait you're reading the manga, which doesn't really have anything too cool happen in it yet.

Pretty much. It has some neat development and good fights but it's true that not a lot has happened. She's pretty much just surviving and trying to reach the surface. She just made it to the middle layer.

The dragon isn't dead in the slime one.
 
You know, I was actually having a lot of fun with it too. The dynamic between the two girls and the MC is cute. But then the end of chapter had to ruin everything for me.

Yeah, you know he's going to end up with a large group of people to try and tutor. Most of which will probably be girls.

Though, I still think this is interesting and want to see where it goes.
 
Starting to read Junji Itou. Im right now reading Black Paradox.

This is the second manga ive read/intend to finsh (I read shonen sometimes as a kid). First Manga I ever finished was Berserk a week ago. Hoping Itou stacks up

I think Delicious in Dungeon is a pretty good name, memorable and indicative

I hope Madhouse is really doing the Dungeon Meshi anime, because they'd nail the style

...I can't stop looking at those drawings, it's so good
 
Criminale! 31
Well that was a pretty cheerful chapter. My prediction about the class uniting to conduct Operation Save Best Girl seems like it's about to materialise. I question the decision to explain Sabine's motivations in her background page, but maybe it's a sign that it won't be touched upon much in the main story. Also in contrast to the rest of the chapter, the search histories were hilarious.

Just blazed through 6 volumes of My Hero Academia. It's really good.

So much charm, and the art is fantastic. Main character has tons of courage and tenacity; reminds me of Gon. Also surprised at how quickly events escalate. Wasn't expecting a full-blown villain invasion arc 2 volumes in.

Glad you're liking it! Deku's hardcore moments remind me a lot of Gon too...which looking back, is pretty funny given how he started out, haha. And yeah, the manga's pacing is crazy.

Feel free to check out the manga thread once you're caught up!

Kui Ryoko is a talented artist and a wonderful mangaka. I'm really glad she got the recognition that she totally deserve. Now waiting for local publisher to pick up Dungeon Meshi.

Hinamatsuri 63

Nitta is lucky Hina didn't take any inspiration from Ryu ga gotoku. Doing HEAT action while being sick is not really good for your body.

We can't study 3

This is harem trash, but i will keep reading it. Yeah, i am that LOW. Damn mangaka for making cute waifu character

Kuutei Dragon 4
Manga is wonderful as always, but can't stop think how fucked up it would be if they decide to butcher that shining dragon after being helped by said dragon.

Hinamatsuri ch56.5

It's reassuring that Hina stays pretty much the same, lol.

Criminale! ch31

She's pretty damn ruthless.
