Weird manga is best manga. And I am so there once I kill my backlog.
You don't know what weird is until you've tried Yume Tsukai.
I'm holding you to this. Be sure to give detailed impressions.
You have no idea what you are getting into.

Air Gear 111 - 126
Kazu chapters tend to be the best chapters. Gosh from being distressed to being a hero and that Flame Road and I guess Spirfire's successor. Now Ikki needs to come back and Agito too.

Yeah, it's such a stepdown.
I agree completely. At least Yume Tsukai is interesting, MGX bored the hell out of me.

I still can't bellive Air Gear is still on-going. When the hell did they go all Sci-fi?
Anyway, that tease from Capter 815 in Detective was really decieving. Now we have Conan & Co adventures, instead of giving us who/what are Sera and Subaro is up to.
WTF? which one is that?

Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
It isn't even just that. Just look at any scene with Erza in it and how she stands there making sexy swimsuit poses and ass shots in every single panel even if she's not naked in the panel, which she is like 50% of the time.
yeah, not much in the ending department. but its about the journey, right? and you got to see chocoloves tragic past....

C'mon guys, I bet a major development in their relationship is just a few chapters away.

Yeah, it's definitely where things began to get stale.
He did notice at least that "urabe" was acting weird. The "payoff" for that arc was also very disappointing.
It might be hard since the basis of Urabe's character is her being weird and mysterious (her absent parents, the nature of the drool connection, her odd way of showing emotion). I suppose Riichi was unprepared to make good on any of that.
Started reading after I got into MGX, way back when. Never finished it though, from what I read it was really good. Art wasn't as polished as MGX at the time, but MGX's art isn't even as polished as MGX at the time.
Have you read any of the Discommunication stuff he started in '99? I've skimmed through a couple pages, it looks pretty interesting.
I just made the mistake of actually going back to read chapter 36. Now I'm going to make the mistake of reading back from chapter 1 again, severe depression is likely the only outcome.
Cage of Eden
And there he goes. To be honest I think he's way too fucked up at this point to make it out alive. I guess Cage of Eden can have that kind of end, but he might be the final sacrifice to let them break out, if the author has it in him to do that.
Dunno what's up with the shadow thing though. He's obviously repented by now. Oh well.

Look up!
Please don't talk to me about Chocolove anymore for a while. Maybe if we keep it down I'll forget he transformed into 50 cent

Oh, this ended? Gotta finish that. Can't remember for the life of me where I left off though. This was back in like 2007.

Typically when an attack gets a "next week! Will the attack finish the guy or not?" treatment the guy being attacked either escape or the attack is shrugged off. Thankfully right now this is not the case.
Oh, and sexy schoolgirl/mom/yokai/9-tails/fox returns... somewhat surprising.
The art in Nura is sometimes pretty stunning.

Yikes, that's an incredibly severe drop-off in quality. What a shame. At least I can rest assured that the anime shouldn't make it that far.
I did? Damn I'm starting to run out of weird shit to trick people into reading.
Aikawa is my kind of girl (guy)

At first I was gonna stay away from the animation because I was afraid it would end up generifying the style of the comic. But Riichi seems to be doing that by himself anyway, so I checked it out and they at least made a decent effort.
It'll be interesting to see where they take the relationship.

Magico
Whoa, Anise just pulled a Yoruichi. Love her human form.
This isn't ending soon, is it? This kind of feels like an endgame arc to me.

Yoruichi is the first thing I thought of too, haha.
And it does it really feel like an ending arc? It doesn't at all to me

I thought someone said they were close to completing Magico, but I could be wrong. I definitely hope it isn't ending soon.
I thought i read that they were
ogre giants or something

Yume Tsukai vol 1
Wasn't as crazy as you guys were making it out to be. There's still a somewhat coherent plot. It's just the designs get awesome and surreal whenever people go all fucked up mechanical Akira. Not enough to make me think the guy is insane like I do with Umezu thanks to Fourteen. Still interesting though.
I looked up the anime and it seems like I actually watched a few episodes a long time ago. It definitely wasn't anything like this though.

I figured Anise would have some other form but yeah I didn't expect.. that. It's great. Shame she has no cat ears though.
There's also Anise crying which could potentially go into a rescue arc.

Unless there's outside intervention it shouldn't be the last arc because of those 2 dudes from the hot spring arc. And I didn't notice anywhere saying they're close to finishing Magico.

garden - 7.1
This was . . . hard to read. Unless the second half twists things around it just seems there for the shock value only, more crass than anything else. (Although I do feel like a hypocrite for writing this after enjoying some of Furuya's other works.)

Say what you want about Boichi, but the man can draw.

Having a blast re-reading this series, I know it will eventually go up in flames. But for now I'm really starting to remember why I loved this series Ueshiba Riichi made. Im totally gonna read Yume Tsukai after I finish this up.
Ran into this choice sequence from chapter 6, lost it.
Tsubaki keeps his ho's in check!

Skyhigh 4
Well that was pretty typical Skyhigh. Why does the mangaka break this up into so many different series? Only the second one was any different and it's just getting confusing at this point, but at least it's not as confusing as...
Wandering Emanon '67
So this I think this series goes Memories of Emanon to Wandering Emanon '67 to Wandering Emanon season 1, but I'm not sure. Oh well I don't think the order you read them in is important. The main appeal here is images of Emanon smoking (which is what is happening in at least 50% of the panels and 100% of the pages).
