Giri No Vacance

Pretty good one shot by Rumiko Takahashi with great art. It's about a woman going on a vacation to a hot spring with her mother-in-law. Good nice relaxing read

Grean Beans

A detective gets tasked to rescue the landlord's daughter and then gets attacked and stuff. Alright one shot with decent art.

How to Colonize Space

Pretty interesting sci-fi work with a nice plot twist. The art was kinda meh but the reveal at the end was cool even though it was predictable.

Ikioku - The Cooler Half

This is about a waifu that will do anything to please other people. It's by the same author of G Senjou Heaven's Door so it has a cool art style

Look Me in the Eyes When You Talk

Best one shot so far. Great art and concept. It's about a guy who can never look people in the eyes but then one day after getting beaten up by a gang and hospitalized, he starts looking at people eyes and to his surprise he sees that they have no eyes. The ending was amazing.

The Monkey's Foot

Some girl wishes her boyfriend, Makoto back, he comes as a zombie. She spends time with him then she realizes he was always acting like a zombie. Then when her sister comes over and sees the zombie, the girl realizes that Makoto had liked her sister instead so she wishes him to go to heaven to rest his soul. It was a fun read, nothing too special

Rome Rome

A fun and comedic take on the zombie genre. Pretty good art too, should have been a full series that tackles everyday issues with zombies everywhere.

Good cover with the second best girl

Koisome Momiji 11


and here we GO!

 

[scy]

Koisome Momiji 11 -

Wrap it up folks. We're done here... Oh, wait, Nana trying to be relevant now.

 

[Kurita]

So is this the inferior Niskoi ?
Or is it Pajama na Kanojo ?

There isn't a single bad yotsuba chapter yet.

I'm still surprised Jump somehow has three rom-coms running at the same time.

Girls of the Wild 50

Ohhhh dat taunt. MC is changing.

 

[Finalow]

I need to finish this series. I started watching the anime and it was perfectly paced for me.

the series isn't over, also a lot of volumes are still in japanese. =(

 

[vareon]

Just read Silver Spoon and now I'm sad because I have to wait for the new releases. Very, very sad since this is one of the best things I've ever read.

Now on Medaka Box. Pretty average so far (I'm on chapter 15-ish) but I have no plans on stopping.

I really need a finished manga to read all this ongoing stuff made me sad.

 

[kayos90]

Koisome Momiji

It's confirmed. Confirmed pairing 11 chapters in and everything? Nailed it! Also, Nana can suck it.

 

[gunbo13]

Beelzebub

This arc is incredibly boring. No good jokes, boring fights(?), and a lame story with the cursed painting. FPS team killing from a jpeg, really? I'm struggling to remember when Beelze was consistent for more then a couple chapters.

 

[survivor]

Koisome Momiji

This just occurred to me, but when Sana starts acting for the TV drama and has to kiss the other actor, wouldn't that be NTR?

Why does Nana keep trying? Like at this point you should just realize you are a side character with no chance of winning

I think the problem is that she's not even likeable or a good side character. She's just bad. Period.

Anticipating Sana to take the development as a "Right, it's a love triangle SO SMART! PRACTICE!" and then we go back to start. Repeat for 200 chapters.

Spoiler

also with obligatory reflection moments and hints of true feelings. Genre staples!

This was the plot of the oneshot basically.

They want to keep drawing her these-would-totally-be-creepy-in-a-different-manga eyes. Also, breasts.

Let's hope the next girl in the harem is more likeable.

It'll be the friend that's helping him obviously.

But it's getting cancelled by the end of the year

Then these events will happen in the next few chapters! Gotta rush these developments.

Wait seriously?

It probably won't last that long. Sadly. I just want more of dat Sana

Bail out, it's awful.

This man is wrong.

 

[dramatis]

Wait seriously?

Probably because Nisekoi is popular, Jump doesn't have any need for Koisome or Pajama.

 

[Tribes of Trusty]

This man is wrong.

You're right.

It's awful, confusing, headache-inducing and the drawings are terrible

Spoiler

if I'm going to criticize one of mangaf's favourite manga I should go all the way shouldn't I ?

 

[kayos90]

Cancel Pajama then!

 

[Crash Station]

Cancel Pajama then!

Jump generally cancels a few things at a time.

 

[survivor]

Wait seriously?

It's probably getting cancelled along with Pajama by the end of the year. In general, half of the new series WSJ add get cancelled in the same year and since Nisekoi seems to be popular, Koisome Momiji and Pajama are the most likely target to get the axe

You're right.

I got your back bro, Medaka Box is awful.

 

[dramatis]

Cancel Pajama then!

There's most likely two rounds of cancel/start left this year. Don't know if Koisome will survive the second even if it survives the first.

To be fair, it has an easy route out at least. I wouldn't mind it if it actually wraps things up well.

I got your back bro, Medaka Box is awful.

We can be nakama no more.

Will check it out, thanks.

lol at you guys and Medaka. I am now conflicted.

Ah good, you're close to the genre shift. It gets really good then (and even better at around chapter 50+). Users typically burn out in the earlier chapters, so its good to see you sticking with it. It's a great manga.

House of Five Leaves vol 2

This volume was mainly about Ume and his reason for joining the Five Leaves. His backstory was good and it's nice to see how his life differs from Senkichi a lot just cause he asked the help of the Saint before Senkichi and thus he was able to quit the gang business without any repercussions. Denshichi was a total asshole and I'm glad to see Senkichi and Ume take care of him and get rid of him once and for all. At least now Senkichi can move on with his life and live peacefully with his family.

The first kidnapping of the Five Leaves was really weird. Yaichi just suddenly brought the idea of kidnapping the guy Ume hated. I thought there would be more to it. I guess when they reveal his motivations we will see why he started the Five Leaves.

Masa is hilarious and it's still funny seeing him struggle with his shyness when he has to fight in front of a large crowd. Yagi is an interesting fellow and I'm looking forward to what he does with Masa and probably their inevitable fight. Plus I can't wait until his connection to Yaichi is revealed.

I'll overlook it this time, Wonzo, but tread carefully.

Benkyou no Jikan vol 1 End

Adorable collection of 3 short shoujo manga. They are mostly standard and cliched but they were still readable.

Benkyou no Jikan - Matsumoto needs help for her next math test so she asks for help from the loner smart Ando. She studies with him and he opens up to her and changes becoming more sociable. Cute stuff even though it's so tropey it hurts.

Green Days - So many emotions. Rui moves in to a new school along with her other friend Akito who she secretly likes. There she quickly befriends Hiro. Then we later find out that Rui got into big problems at her old school where she was betrayed by her friends and was branded as someone who steals other people boyfriends. This leads to complications with her new friend Hiro since Hiro likes Akito too. At the end everything gets resolved nicely, Hiro confesses and gets denied but she hooks up with another boy from her work, and Rui finally confesses to Akito and they live happily ever after

So, Stand by Me - Sakumi, a childhood friend of the twins (I think), Ryouta and Souta struggles with her feelings when one of them starts dating a different girl. It was kinda confusing read since I lost track of which boy Sakumi likes, thank god they had different hair colours otherwise I would have understood nothing.

Unless they tank really really hard (not saying it's impossible), they're only really in danger for the latter August cancellation along with Barrage and Kurogane. After that, the next cancellation will probably have only 1 series because the GFC would have freed up room (and Takamagahara will probably be close to cancelled too). If any of them survive by then, it's free game since August series could be terrible and get cancelled. Plus, Nisekoi being popular doesn't hurt Koisome and Pajama, it's the opposite.

Koisome Momiji
She just confirmed it? Goddamn, mangaka have written himself into a corner. It's either end the series now or create a deus ex machina misunderstanding to extend it.

Koisome Momiji

I'm not really sure what's eating the manager here. Look:
1. "You can't have a relationship till you're 18"
2. "But it's not a relationship! It's prac-"
3. "SOCIETY THINKS OTHERWISE"
4. "But.. I think I love him!"
5. "Well, dang."

Also, Sana. And Sana. Also.

I loved how Murakami could translate Neko into saying "Karaoke" without even tsukkoming or anything. Man, you can always count on this guy.

But yeah looks like we'll be about internal problems for a while. They have a month, I guess.

Nisekoi being popular does hurt Koisome/Pajama. It's the same way a new action manga can't gain any traction, because all the votes are going towards OP/Naruto/Bleach/Toriko. A person who votes Nisekoi isn't going to vote Koisome/Pajama, he'll give his remaining votes to other things.

Unless he's a part of smutGAF.

Barrage gets low ratings, I don't think it'll last more than a year.
And to be honest, even though I read it, I don't find it really exciting.

Pajama Terrible

There was like an attempted rape by knife-point 10 chapters in along with a subsequent confession. And the story behind the ghost thing never really made much sense. I don't see any thunder there. My favorite was the early moment when it was like, she's dead! Sike she's not, she's asleep!
