It seems Beezlebub's spinoff is ending.
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-03-03/beelzebub-bangai-hen-spinoff-manga-ends-in-march/.85540
I really miss Beezlebub, it was a great series. It had amazing humor that always made me laugh. One of the best comedy manga Jump has offered and it was an enjoyable ride, such a great experience. One of my favorite manga from Jump. So I guess it's goodbye now since the spinoff is ending. I'll miss that loveable bastard Oga and Beel. I hope the author is able to serialize a new work or his new recent one shot.

Shokugeki no Soma 61-62
Well shit. Why did this have to be the opening match? I guess knowing the outcome makes it slightly easier to swallow than it otherwise would've been. Slightly.
Or because he really likes poop.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I still think its funny they literally just dropped the storyline from the Christmas party in Umaru-chan. Like a thing happened at the end and we never saw the outcome of either Umaru meeting back up with Sylphin OR Taihei and the other girl.
Tonari no Seki-kun 67-71
I forgot about this, how did I forget about this? It's so good that it doesn't make sense that I forgot about it, still, no Gotou in these chapters which would have made things better. Seki is a genius, he made water out of air, and he made Rumi get distracted from class without even being there. It's been nearly 2 months since the last chapter though :/.

Omurices are overrated.
Seriously, it's like the author/editors axed the outcome because they suddenly thought about maintaining the statu quo in a gag slice of life series.

Looks like the group doesn't have a translator anymore for this. How? We'll never know.
At least Vertical is releasing them at a steady pace, every 3 months a new volume.

It seems Viz is releasing Tokyo Ghoul digitally on March 17th and some other series as well.

As much as this sounds nice I'm really waiting for those physical copies. Those cover arts are worth every cent, they look so beautiful.

For Umaru meeting back with Sylphin, i think the author could use it as bonus chapter in tankoubon or skip it altogether. Taihei and Ebina on the other hand....
Himouto! Umaru-chan ch91
Dat secret saving.
Umaru need to hold back on buying microtransaction. She's still a highschool student!
Wait, there's no "norway" in this chapter!?
Catching up:
Amazing.
It was very subtle at the time (especially since early Prison School is explicitly about the boys group struggling with the majority of the girl population at the academy), but Prison School is actually about equal opportunity thirst.
Hell that setup is half the reason why Hana is one of the best things in the manga. :lol
Edit: Shinomiya spin off was fun even if it was essentially the French new game plus version of Soma ch. 1.

Yamada and the Seven
Shiraishi hasn't been an important character in 50 chapters.
Also, I have no goddamn clue who the seven witches even are other than most of them are guys.

Shokugeki no Soma 63-67
dropped
. Hoping she'll make a resurgence in the future. Best girl status aside, her culinary speciality's the most interesting to me. The match itself gave me indigestion, though at least there were two good things that came out of it.
dropped

Alright then.
Looks like the test tube baby theory is a go.
My sympathies goes most with Hana. A lesser girl would have committed suicide already.
Despite that, I have a strange liking for Kiyoshi x Hana.
edit: ^^ if that's true, nobody won the NegiBowl. Damn. That transformation near the end of negima probably screwed that up.
Soma to travel world trying to find daddy. He randomly runs into a bunch of Joichirou's fellow working friends/acquaintances starting with a chance encounter with a rough and aggressive past rival with a grudge on Avarice Archipelago. After dealing with that, he gets flown out VIP style with whoever accompanies him to another corner of the world where his dad's best work friend introduces them to cooking for the not so glamorous. All's good until another group of landsharks comes into view and Soma thinking he's hot shit cooking challenges them. This time however, he loses but the older guy in a moment of maximum bro takes one for the team and sends Soma and companion home. They find out later that Joichiro's bro folded and his kitchen was handed over to a new Erina tier prodigy. Soma then heads back into town through the chain of operations held by the landshark beating ass and working through their chain of kitchens before meeting the upstart and blowing them the fuck out in a Shokugeki. Time passes and Soma goes back home upset that he still couldn't reinstate his dad's friend as a chef in the area. Companion enlists help of adorkable little bro/sis to cheer up Soma all while Joichirou shows up at Tootsuki again for some "expansion" business and to elect a new head between Doujima and another disagreeable and potentially malicious alumni. Soma heads back into Tootsuki to find Jo back once more. Joichirou tells Soma to meet him by a tree in the Polar Star backyard. Companion of the moment leaves with younger sibling for their own journey. Pops shows the plans for the Tootsuki expansion involve facilities far beyond Japan alone.
Random montage of other people from Soma's class doing stuff.
Pictures devolve every now and again into pencil sketches.
Suddenly Erina's father pops up like "hey gaiz we're moving into 'murica for the expansion"
Coming in 20XX.
Soma x Soma.
And we STILL never get on the fucking boat.
She's basically gender swapped Soma minus the whole "I am made of and for winning". If you like Soma, you pretty much like Alice.

Shokugeki no Soma spinoff 1
So-so, i guess?
It's not bad, but i don't its as good as the OG. Especially since the MC is already OP from the start. I chuckle at that Rose of versailes parody though.

Her eyes (probably)
Female protagonist twin with actually a personality (even a decent one!) that does an interesting type of cooking?

The Circumstances Leading to Waltraute's Marriage
The story of a human boy who challenges a Valkyrie for her hand in marriage and all the fun times that comes afterwards.
From the author of Index fame, this volume is pretty enjoyable. Using the Norse gods as a base helps make it easy to understand all the references, the characters are fun, the boy has probably gone the furthest out of any ln protag and all in all its a fun love comedy. Shame there's only one volume, cause it would have been fun to have more Norse gods hijinks.

Yeah, I felt like a total idiot for patronizing one. At least it was air-conditioned.
Edit: Although I think I would've been much more excited in Kimito's situation.
New Game! 3
With the latest chapters getting translated, it's about time to start catching back up to this series. The drawings are still as cute as I remember. Looks like the main girl is introduced to more of the workers and even gets her own ID card. Not the funniest 4-koma, but still amusing enough.

What do you know, I've been practicing "left hand of god" whenever i eat biscuit....
Really digging the humor.

"Destiny Fucker" sure is strong.
What the hell, this is no longer your usual delinquent comedy. What's the mystery behind Metsuko!?

Cyborg Roggy 2
I have to say I really love these color pages, they just look stylish.
Man is Roggy such an entertaining MC, seeing his reaction towards the Doctor was funny. Though I can't blame him since the doctor is pretty good looking. Though there's something I found interesting in this chapter, on how Dog couldn't sniff out Roggy's scent. I wonder if there's a reason for that, maybe it has something to do with his past. Anyways I like how this chapter was a bit personal with the sister and brother. I find it funny how Dog owns a Porn store ahahaha.
As the series progresses I hope it starts to open up more with these criminal organizations because the world is pretty interesting. I really hope it stays consistently good.

lol Akamatsu. Negi forever single.
So now we have some lifemaker dude and Touta's little sister as villains? Curious how she's going to tie in with Negima.
Yamada 146-148
can't wait for the wacky twist where it turns out she's been manipulating him. Don't worry Yamada you would never betray your true love Shiraishi ;_;

replica of Asuna's weapon? Santa better keep his distance and just fight from afar. that sword if anywhere near as good as asuna's blade is bad news for Santa.
A defect leftover who interests fate averruncus is no defect. there are more questions than answers. even more so why that girl even bother gunning for touta if he is nothing but a defective copy.
Akamatsu done sunk ships by having Negi sterile.

Foreign loli comes to average guy's house to stay. Meets her on a cliff. Gropes her, accidentally knocks her off, attempts to save her and dies in the process. Said loli then revives him all while childhood friend is watching.
It has some amusing parts. It seems like it's trying to be half lewd, half funny, where the lewd parts just don't make sense, like chapter 2. Anyway, the supernatural necromancer stuff is pretty fun. This joke slayed me:
