Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Probably not. As Naked-Apron-Guy said during their challenge, Souma doesn't really have much else to bet with at the moment. I'm sure that if/when he starts his own club stuff for that (budget, members, appliances, clubroom etc.) will be put at stake. That will allow him to lose with having actual "consequences" and allows for Souma to think up some inventive cooking techniques to deal with not having, for example, a good oven.

I'm assuming he will have his own club or whatever.

Get Inside Her!
One Piece 700

LTTP here, but I can't be the only one hoping against hope that the yet-to-be-revealed final member of the Shichibukai is the one and only:

I like how his opponent is permitted to present her dish wearing a bikini, too.
 
Assassination Classroom 9-19

What a super boring school trip. The only interesting information is that Koro was probably human once.

I don't see how this manga isn't a waste of time. It's not funny, not interesting, it doesn't look good, doesn't have any good characters and I don't see how it stands out or why it would sell well. But I'm sure the tentacle porn industry got a kick out of it.

There's 2000 posts before thread ends, he can overcome DTL's commanding lead by then.

All of DTL's posts in this thread are like weird posts where he describes the first two chapters of some BL series and then never mentions it again. :lol:

If post count is a thing that matters, I had the most by quite a bit before I stopped to do the Bar Exam

If the series would get a chapter update more than once every thread.

I'm not sure how you could really differentiate between them by the time a new chapter comes out when they all appear to have a super similar, super tropey premise (e.g. there's a seme and an uke and they act exactly like a seme and an uke) and only like 2 chapters.
 
Assassination Classroom 20-22

Look, they got a computer and koro modified her to be more relatable. How nice of him. And hey, a 2D girl joke, haha. But no, her master or whatever removed the mods, but she hid some of the code and maintained her new personality. Also, face drawn on boobs. Funny!

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.

It's how he compensates for the lack of regular releases.

You guys should have more empathy for DTL, how awful is it when a manga you love is dropped or forgotten!

Speaking off, took a look at my manga updates today~

new Voynich Hotel (Cool)
new Cromartie High School (Yesssss!)
new Yotsuba (knew this was coming but fuck yeah)

Now if only Vagabond or I am a Hero would return.
 
Sakuranbo Syndrome 55

Rena gifts you the chance to make up and you botch it. GJ dude. Also the huge breaks in the releases mean that I can't really remember who this new/returning girl is. But never mind, because he'll definitely be sensible and not get too involved with her. Right? Right?

Hayate 397

The author needs to head on out an interest strengthening trip.

Maga-Tsuki 23

As above.

TLRD 29

A few pages back I speculated that another series could almost be as super interesting as this one.

I genuinely have no idea what I was thinking.

Berserk 1

So yeah, this is happening.
This should be fun.

Nisekoi
So apparently the old woman who appeared in the latest chapter is someone from Komi's earlier oneshot, Koi no Kamisama. The main girl there has amazing luck because she is loved by god himself so anyone who comes close to her will be imposed with bad luck. Sounds familiar alright. I wonder if the last sentence of the Nisekoi chapter implies that a girl out of Raku's harem is also god's darling.

Berserk 1 (90 pages?!)

I'm actually jumping into this virtually blind on a whim. All I know is that there's a dude called Guts and at some point he goes to elf island or something.

EDIT: And done. I like this guy already.

I've heard the later chapters are kinda bad and the mangaka is busy playing idol games, I think.

I might start it after AC.

I've been reading manga for about 5 years now and Berserk was one of the first I had ever read.

..I still havent caught up.

Mostly just took breaks for some reason. I read Berserk about as often as Miura releases it.

Great series though. Prime example of why I prefer print manga as well when I can get it - The art is almost always superior to the scans and the translations Dark Horse puts out are great. too bad about the out of print volumes :/

Hehe.

I hope viz picks this up, has really been one of the more memorable experiences in the genre and every chapter just makes me feel so good. Jun's unlimited blushes so often and difficulty to handle being so loved never ceases to make me chuckle. And Saki getting all angry and jealous at the body pillow was hilarious (end extra, wanting to destroy it after waking up facing it). Shopping for one was fun.

Yeaaah I'm just going to let this manga end and marathon the rest. This should be end game, right?
But we haven't got to the other continent yet :lol
I don't see anyone being able to take out Pris right now, not even Neo-Riful so yeah...

Picking up Berserk is roughly equivalent to picking up Hunter X Hunter knowing that Togashi wanders off after he gets bored every few chapters
 
Any recommendations for series that update on Monday or Tuesday? I have nothing to look forward to between ToG and Magi on Sunday until jump releases on Wednesday, I need to fix that.
 
Assassination Classroom 22-27

Wow, that was bad. Naruto has better teacher-student stories than this and I'm talking about part two.

And yet I did it. I guess there's no way around it now.
 
Nozomi x Kimio 9

Shitty cheerleader girl arc resolves fairly unsatisfactorily, but then I wasn't exactly expecting her conversion to the noble flasher therapy cause. Opinion of Nozomi++ to the point where introducing any other girls now would just be a waste of time. Wait--

Scanlator said:
Though unfortunately, as stated previously, Nozomi x Kimio is on hiatus. It wasn't in February's issue of the magazine either, so that makes it 6 issues now it hasn't been in. I'm more inclined to believe it's on hiatus rather than it having ended, as the last page in volume 1 points to more Nozomi.
