The update schedule for this's been erratic to say the least, to the point where my interest in the duo's circumstances has largely dwindled away. Guess the artist's coming back to it now that Scum's Wish has ended.
 
Feel like I am in a minority here with Hungry Mare as I can't see why everyone's been praising it. Might just be a difference in tastes, however.

For me anyway, I just like the style of comedy it is.

Yeah, I don't even remember when the last chapter came out, or what even happened it in.

The world has been built up pretty well. I like how they pretty quickly made the division in boarder clear. Jin is cool. Looking forward to seeing where this goes now that we've established the protagonists role in Boarder, and formed their team. There is the one character who looks just like Hughes from FMA that he stands out to me everytime lol

At least it's at the top of the flop series for now, so it should have some time to maybe climb.
 
Haikyu ~197

Man this arc focused on nekomata is really poorly timed and not hooking me at all. After the crazy intense back to back matches the series really needed a slightly longer breather with no volleyball, not two volleyball matches focused on rivals who've not been shown for a long time and a new team I don't care about at all.



I can't ignore it anymore, Haikyu does a fantastic job with it's main cast, but the series is awful with it's handling of secondary and support characters. The female volleyball team, most of the coaches, the cheer leader sisters for nekomata, and a lot of members of the enemy teams are throw in at times with minimal introduction and set up. This would be fine if the series didn't treat them so important since the series spends a lot of time and panel space showing losers getting emotional and player names switching in/out/who's on the team/where they are in the rotation and not developing them or introducing their whole arc in the match they are initially shown in and only there.

Not liking where this is going. It's such an obvious setup that I don't understand why any of the characters woudl go for it.

Chikyuu no Houkago 33-35 (end)

Super dumb end, but w/e. I had fun for nearly all the chapters besides the ending ones.
 
Nanashi no Asterism 22

gj to Tsukasa for laying down some much needed truths. The insight into Kotooka's history was pretty much as expected. Unless the final chapter is like 2x the length, there's little prospect of much happening beyond the trio making up.
 
I liked it well enough but I've never read Ranma and I imagine if I did HM would feel like a shittier version of it.

I definitely think this has something to do with my luke-warm reception of it. As I first read Ranma like 8yrs ago and this just feels like more of that.

I dont see it either but hey i thought Beelzebub was ok at best

Oh yeah, I loved Beelzebub. Though the last arc or two where quite poor.

Ichigo 100% East Side Story (1?)

This is how this chapter felt like

giphy.gif


Is this a joke? Is Aya gonna end up with an off-brand dollar store knock-off version of Manaka? I mean, Nakama? c'mon. This guy is a total wet blanket. Sure, Manaka sucks in retrospect, but giving second place girl a second place guy after how the original series ended, that's just cruel. His feelings were slapdash too. He fell in love over the course of one chapter. If you're doing a nostalgic cash-in spin-off down the line, at least try and make people feel invested by writing an actual likeable, dynamic character people would want Aya to end up with.

Jitsu wa Watashi wa ch170

Glad that Mikan has changed for the better as well. I expect this jump to the post to be quite the ride.

Nanashi no Asterism ch22

Everything rides on the next chapter then.

Kimi wa Midara na Boku no Joou ch11

That dude is a complete creep.

Code:

Superb dedication to the craft. I approve!

Beastars ch18-19

Well that was awkward. At least they're properly acquainted now, somehow.

AKB49 ch220

As expected there's quite the stir.

Shokugeki no Soma ch215

That didn't take long for the next match. I hope Isshiki did something completely crazy.

Muscly lady too stronk. As always Nozomi had got a tough match ahead.

Sure, what's​ a little necromancy at this point?

My Hero Academia ch138

Dayum. Dragon Lady new best hero.
 
Chikyuu no Houkago 33-35

Well thats that, it was alright. I had already looked at the raws so I knew what the ending was. Though I thought there was still another short chapter left.

I doubt Senku dies here more then likely he'll be paralyzed which requires him to rely on Taiju and Yuzuriha

This is a good idea for a way out without him dying and at the same not some ridiculous cop out. I think its worth noting that only Tsukasa's doll symbolically vanished too.

I wonder what was with the panel where the dialogue was in scribbles? Just Taiju talking quietly or something else?

Yuritto Yama GIRL (One-shot) by Mira

A SFW short story by Mira?? What kind of sorcery is this? Fortunately, it's still yuri. Unfortunately, it's kind of boring, filled with typical romantic crush situations with a hiking flavor. If there were any proof that smut would automatically enhance any series, this would be it.

Rokudou no Onna-tachi ch24

What reliable friends.

Well I don't disagree with the fact that the character dynamic is one of Black Clover strength! I don't know if I agree with the less fight part though, but opinions!
I mean let's take this week's chapter. It's Asta learning how to use his ablities a bit more creatively but my GOD does it not know the meaning of hte word "Moderation" in terms of it's comedy.
 
Yuritto Yama GIRL (SFW doujin)

Seconding Zweizer, this was more of a struggle to finish than the girls' mountain climb and had less flavour than my cooking. But it's from relatively early in Mira's illustrious career so it's forgivable.
 
Has anybody here heard of Saint Muscle?

It's like Fist of the North Star taken to the point of ridiculous. I commissioned a translator to keep working on it because nobody else did.
 

Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Having Julio both look and act like a total jobber probably wasn't a good way to sell him as a legit foe

also, Soma got reeeeeeeeeeeeejected by Erina. No play for Mr. Gray.

I don't really participate in any waifu wars but for ichigo 100%, Nishino was better.

Was early teens when the series ended.

shhh Graham I'm still compiling this Radiant map
Jojolion ch. 65

The Happening meets Superfly and Let's Go Eat Italian Food. Makes all sorts of sense, sure.

I don't know what to think about any of this, but if it leads to Gappy punching these sweets, I'll mark out.

Hotaru has a fucking black card. Marry her already Coconuts you dipshit.

JoJolion 65

Is this the JoJolion version of Man in the Tower???

I burst out laughing when his kitchen came out of the pole. Like how does that even work. What.

(NSFW) Monster Girl Transformation Go! by Horitomo


Sounds like the best app ever. Too bad there's only lamia action in this short story, but hopefully the author will exploit the idea further in the future.
 
Saint Muscle Chapter 2 a/b

The idea of the death marathon sounds so stupid, but great. Art is still ridiculous and the translation has got better and will continue to.

Was really impressed with this arc. Was able to effectively bounce around a cast that is already huge, and who are somehow almost all well introduced prior to the start of this arc, and move at a great pace. Was the first time we got to see a lot of characters go all out, like Konami/Kurasuma which was fun, and also our first instance of enemy neighbors who speak/have a personality. Fights are pretty much the perfect mix of strategy and cool nonsense.

Jin's future seeing is also used pretty well to make sure we have stakes and build up to the climax. I wonder if he is going to get written out or something later on since his ability is so good lol.

Biggest complain is that I would like to see Chika's role improved but I imagine she will be the main focus whenever we get to the expedition. I suppose she is only C class at this point so it makes sense she was kind of just someone who needed to be protected here.

Interested to see how the B rank battles go, since it looks like that is a lot of chapters and will bring me up to date.
