But, Eyeshield 21!
Ok, honestly, my bad, I'll assume you read Vertical's release and just grab the scan out of convenience for the comparison. But that tl note is pretty bad, lol.

But you get some insight into what the author does every chapter. It's very informational.
I just finished re-reading Death Note and it's still great. I don't hate the Near/Mello part as much as some people but I don't love it. It has some good ideas but I don't think any of them are as well executed as anything in the first half. I think the series would have ended better if Light was captured because of something L had done but with L still ending up dead as well. Overall though it's still one of my favourite series. Also I discovered that one of my volumes is missing and had to read the scans for it. I forgot how much I hate 'Raito' instead of Light & Ryuuku instead of Ryuk. Nia instead of Near bugs me as well, though not as much.
What's a birdlime?

It's a sticky substance used to catch birds.
I liked the second half. I was on the edge of my seat during the police raid.
Sounds lewd.
panda, you better take note of this!

You spread a stick goo on your stick, and if a bunch of tits lands on it they'll be stuck.

You guys force me to put in a note then this happens
Do you have any way to defend yourself
I really like the police raid as well. I also really enjoyed the ending, even if it's not how I wanted it to end. Overall though I still think the second half is weaker than the first. There were bits that got me excited but I was let down by the way they resolved. Like when Sayu got kidnapped, that got me super interested in what would happen next, but it ended kind of boringly & was overshadowed by Near and Light having a pissing contest. The stuff with Takada was a good idea but in the end I didn't care for it much. I liked Mikami as a character but there should have been more build up to him being chosen by Light. Of course it sounds like I hate the second part but I don't, I just don't think it's anywhere near as good as the first half.

Good luck dealing with that dad in the future kuromine.

I originally liked Blue Exorcist, but I reached a point where I said "eh, that's enough" and quit. I think I did so because of the pacing. Now seeing that comment...
I doubt I'll ever get around to pick it up again (more like an excuse, haha). Shame, since I liked the premise.

I can't believe it only has 59 chapters, it feels like it's been going on forever.

Seeing that it's monthly it's been going on for 6 years now.
Yeah, I enjoyed the beginning. Then pacing started sucking then the plot became stupider and stupider.

Well, that was a rather long introduction. I have to wonder how it managed to live through serialization with eight chapters of nothing but build-up, but either way I hope things will get interesting soon because so far it has been nothing more than some pseudo-philosophical internal navel gazing intersected with hilariously antisocial banter.
Nothing much else to say, aside from the fact that, hey, another Touhou doujinshi artist!

Super lewd.
I think the worst one that I know of in legal releases was in Wandering Son 1, where there was a "google it" note left in. Everyone thought it was funny and intentional.
