Already liking new girl.

Poor Gintoki lol.

His nipple was just abused this chapter.
 
Iron Knight

Eh, the setting it pretty meh. As in pretty much done everywhere before (yes, I'm getting bored of this humans turning into demons set-up these days).

It wasn't bad for an one shot but really doesn't have much of a promise as anything more than an one-shot.
 
Are You Alice? Vol.02

dXhpzY6l.jpg


I'm enjoying this a lot more than I expected to. The plot is still a mess but I guess that's to be expected. I am liking the themes they are exploring in this, keeping your identity, usefulness of your character, unfinished stories and tying it with the whole Alice in Wonderland theme.

The main character also willing to take some action is a bonus as well.

Huh I thought it was her hand what was meant, I mean in the next panel we see her hand at his ass.
Doubt she has a dick, if she has well.... that will be interesting.

Nice to see Assassination Classroom so high.
And Haikyuu!!! is in there!

"Only" a three million gap between One Piece and SnK.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
The real question is, can Attack on Titan sustain those numbers next year? It's possible if a Season 2 airs.

Hmm Bleach getting its last volume of the year on the 4th is screwing it over again in the rankings.

Otherwise it would be rank 12 easy making 3 million. Fell quite a bit though with Ass class and other new popular series bringing it down. Sales are steady though throughout the years even though it lost fans and isn't as popular anymore. OP and Attack on Titans are just absolute monsters.

Seeing Naruto being so high with this preachy war volumes makes me sick but then again I think the same when I look at Justin Beiber and Miley Cyrus on the music charts making millions.

Fairy tail seems be getting a bit more popular.

As for HiatusXHiatus, this is why Togashi doesn't come back to write new chapters.

Magi is really popular, I need to check it out. Kuroko no Basket must have a huge Yaoi fangirl base and sports fan manga. Kinda Slam Dunk but not as good because nothing will be as good as Slam Dunk.

Did I completely miss the discussion, or have you all not read the new chapter? I'm never the first to read new stuff because I rely on you all to tell me when it is. Haha.

I haven't read ONE's version much, so this is all new to me! I like the reason for the prophet's death. Oh, ONE.

15 - Meisetsu Kougyou Koukou Rugby Bu 00


Of all things, a rugby manga. Well this is just the one shot of it for the main series.

But man, that was extremely enjoyable. There's mostly focus on the two main leads, the kicker and the captain but their growing friendship was highly enjoyable to view.

Not to mention, just this one shot was filled with nothing but bromance. So much bromance, I'm drowning in it.

The art was pretty amazing, especially those kicks. The story was pretty great and while I don't really understand rugby anymore, it was still an enjoyable sports series.

If anything, this one shot basically pumped me up to read the full series.

I like how there are some hints here and there in regards to the plot but it doesn't take too long to give some reveals, plus certain gender reversals, like the Queen.
Also, there are some scenes that are really sad and I feel they pull it off pretty well without going too overboard.
And the art is also a plus.

Are You Alice,?, together with Devils and Realist and Magnolia has become one of the manga I look forward to read the most.

So if they succeed where does the series go from here? The series biggest plot point, saving the future, will have been solved.

I was about to complain about how angry I was that this still wasn't finished, but it seems the final chapter was released in the last week.

Yeah Kuroko is not going anywhere if they win. The mangaka says there are plans for a possible timeskip arcs like Team USA vs. Team Japan.

Yeah I believe it was in an interview with Togashi and Fujimaki (KnB mangaka) that it was mentioned Togashi wanted the Generation of Miracles to reunite to play versus the world in a international tournament. Fujimaki said he was 50/50 on that idea

Also the cover for the new Kuroko no Basket volume looks great.

Slime girl is an instant fave on the account of being my favorite monster girl.

Looking at the poll, I'm extremely pleased to see her and Dullahan (hope she appears soon) ranking so high. Disappointed that the nine-tailed fox is so low though.

They're really selling the ideas of fated lovers, and unrequited love really hard in this series. After a slow start, its getting really good though.

I think the manga will continue in some fashion, even if it moves to another Shueisha magazine like Prince of Tennis. The series just prints money and merchandising. Especially considering the feast or famine nature for mangakas. Editors will not give slack to even those with previous success like Watsuki.

Assassination Classroom cannibalizing Bleach and Toriko sales is finally clear at this EoY benchmark. Definitely deserving of it thanks in part to the phenomenal quality its been since this second portion has been going on.

Ace of Diamond's anime must be helping well (though why no Yowamushi Pedal...). Hope its its the 4mlns at least next year assuming the anime wont be ending this season or even next season. Haikyuu!! ought to explode too.

Next year ought to have Shokugeki no Soma and One Punch man (which had a volume on the 100manga best selling list).
 
Akuma de Keiyaku 4 end
Assad was a great new character to come along in the final chapter, I think ended up being the first middle easterner origin of a non doujin yaoi story I encountered. Seme too even. In any event he was funny and could have had another part in an extra, hopefully he returns in some other story the writer does maybe. Hilarious fun manga about the contract and getting the wish fulfilled, both couples stories were good and pleasing, younger one best one though.
 
Akudama 4 (nonfiction pt 1)
tumblr_mx5ytkAOOn1qbxqfpo1_500.png

Actor accepted a role to start in this gay romance being filmed with the two students and one making a confession, it ends up being a nice start as he seems to start having feelings for his partner in this acting thing, but then at times it seemed to be a bit confusing or blended in someway to the scene being filmed. In any event, its his first time finally having feelings for someone and being all nervous and such. Its a good start for a part one, and I like how he looks (no megane),
