Are there professional comic books critics in the US? I know there are contests and awards in Japan but I doubt it's a full-fledged profession.
Edit: Apparently there are: Google books link.

Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru ch76-78
I have to ask myself why I believed there would be a big change.
Sports event ending is gold. Kon best girl as always.
Hotori could be a legit detective and that scares me.

Man, this series is so dumb. Also it's so shounen that it hurts.
I like it though.

Looks like Kotomine has found a waifu~
Wait. Who's kotomine?
no NTR (yet). It's more just him ruining a relationship (first girl) and then the second involving a break-up (+ her leaving the country).
Since the overall plot is one of the girls showing up again and there's _seven_ of them, I'm not sure I like where this is possibly going.
HOW DO FIVE MORE GIRLS FIT IN THIS TIMEFRAME ANYWAY.

O rly? I guess you could put it that way.
But i would pay to see him actually fall in love, like a NORMAL human being.
But that won't happen, cause he a fucking magic king, and he can do whatever the fuck he wants.

旧世界の魔女 aka Kyuu Sekai no Majou, oneshot by いさかわめぐみ (Ichikawa Megumi)
In a post-apocalyptic world where technology has regressed to the point of being indistinguishable from magic, so called "magicians" are branded heretics and executed.
Our young executioner finds a young female magician, possibly from another time, conveniently wearing sailor uniform just because, and is tasked with executing her. He finds out he is in fact from another time himself, and the two escape together in this heartwarming yet slightly dark one-shot.

Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Its Saber right? Oh wait, that's the other guy who's all hot for Saber.
Fake. A very old one, too (2009 or so?).
An era has come to an end.
It's time to get off the boat.
Next episode will be in issue 16 (August 8), and still about Rickert and Griffith.
EDIT: Actually... See below.

Yes even in such a despair filled climate they can still have a blast being best bros. Unfortunately the crazy mom will most likely meet death.

That cover is relevant to my interests.
Actually, now that I think about it, it might be real. A real announcement from 2009.
I had completely forgotten we already were in that chapter.

It'll all be for moot once more iDOLM@STER DLC comes out.

I just read ashita no Joe for the first time.
he didn't die! He didn't Die! Someone please tell me he didn't die.
I even found this explanation on some blog.
http://hoxtranslations.blogspot.com/2014/04/many-thoughts-on-good-manga-10.html
"I have heard that at one interview later on in his life, one audience member asked Chiba why he killed off Joe. To this, he responded that Joe did not die that day because he is Tomorrow's Joe. This echoes Natsume Fusanosuke's own interpretation of the ending, in which he points out that the left-side in manga represents the future (right-to-left order, remember). By having Joe sit down facing the left with a faint smile, while the status of his mortality is kept intentionally ambiguous, the manga tells us that whether or not he died is trivial. The true significance is that Yabuki Joe faces tomorrow. "
Someone please tell me the explanation is true.
