Ushiro - The Somber God of Death 1
Fixed.
A roaming god of death persuades depressed/desperate people to kill themselves, while an upbeat schoolgirl tries to counteract him. Sadly, judging from this opening chapter, it won't be nearly as grim as the premise suggested. Followed regardless because of the (presumably) episodic nature of the story and to keep my suffering levels topped up.
It's now dead and buried. It was originally supposed to show that I'd only skimmed a first chapter to get a flavour instead of reading it fully. Then it 'evolved' to also mean that I was backlogging a series instead of picking it up properly. Then it became a fully-fledged meaningless habit.

Amano Megumi wa Suki Darake! 1-7
Or as I like to call it, High School Love Hina with a single girl
Comes the day his previously bratty flat tomboy and now well endowed
childhood friend with whom he lost contact since middle school comes to him to help her in her studies.
From then on, she regularly pesters him to study or (more often) play with her. He kind of obliges.
It's standard but a pretty fun read, I like how the 2 main characters' relationship is depicted. The MC is a teenager so of course he's going to have perverted thoughts but really, who hasn't ? Plus the two of them are pretty frank to each other so it's pretty funny.

MC is a first-year high school student whose ultimate goal is to get into Todai, so he studies like his life depends on it. The reason is revealed a few chapters in
It's something pretty boring.
beeeeeeeeewbs

Hajime no Ippo 1020
Jesus Ippo stop triggering all these death flags.
Ippo and Kumi close kissu now at 2.
I love super champ Ricardo just chilling, being a boss, fricking "machismo".

Oh boy, its been foreshadowed for a while but im still reeling from the Gonzalez fight outcome. It was a typical Ippo fight of him getting murdered for 4-5 rounds then making a miracle comeback due to his opponents stupidity more than anything else, until the finish. It kind of annoyed me that the fight was close at all, Ippo should have been brutalized bell to bell imo. Serious training arc required, surely Ippo needs to change up his style of boxing somewhat.
Itagaki fight outcome was more surprising and was a great wee fight too. No idea where his character goes from there though. lol at his ridiculously awesome ring name though "Chrono". Itagaki fights have basically turned into JoJo/DBZ at this point.

Yeah Touta didn't stand a chance fighting them
I don't know. In the end of Negima, didn't she wake up in the future like at least 10 years later than the current time?

They better get bailed out and quick. The only person I could see saving them from this is Fate. They're lucky Negi himself hasn't actually done anything offensive towards them or it'd be over already.

And thus, Touta declares himself the ballsiest harem lead in manga history.
Multiple timelines. This seems to be a timeline where she slept or was killed at some point, while the previous ending was one where she exploited a time loop to return to just after she went away to sleep.

Ten- the nice guy on the path of tenhou vol 1-10
The series that first feature Akagi Shigeru before Akagi has it own series. It started out as a SoL comedy about Ten, a representative player for Mahjong parlor whenever there's a troubling guest. Using his Tsubame gaeshi (Mahjong cheating technique to switch tile from his wall to his hand, ensuring he got a needed tile to win the match), he always win at the last round, making a comeback winning. Though he usually admit to cheating after he won the game and let the other player to hit him.
Even before the first vol end, the genre change into what Fukumoto known for, a mahjong game full of trick and mindgame. Ten meet with Hiro, a young hot blooded gambler who use logic as his way of playing, and after a certain incident, both of them got involved with yakuza, and that's when they met with Akagi for the first time, with Ten somehow manage to outmaneuver Akagi after one intense match. After this, the arc focus on East vs West match, an underground mahjong match that will decide the future of mahjong parlor.
If you like Fukumoto mahjong game series, this is a good one to read. The first few chapters was really weak, resembling his Atsuize penchan series. Only when they start playing game for real the manga start to shine. Do note that Fukumoto penchant to drag things out is still in here. If you don't mind the flaw, this is a good mahjong manga to read.

Have you ever wondered where Lynn Okamoto got inspiration for Elfen Lied? Well wonder no more, as he answer such a question in this Napoli Comicon 2016 interview.
I'm a lazy ass (proof is my never completed translation of a Kago interview) so I'm not gonna translate more than this, but I'll add that Okamoto said Togashi is the manga author he likes the most and Nana is the Elfen Laid character he prefers.
He never had problems with getting censored, though an editor told him that Nana without arms and legs was too much, so he had to redraw her with an arm and a leg.
He got asked about why he inserts niche and weird characters in his manga, like the incontinent girl in Elfen Lied and he said that he has no intent of making niche, fetishist characters. His intent for all his characters is to make normal ones, though he admits that he's been told he makes niche character a lot.
Bless you Okamoto, you crazy author.

Wait, they actually are drawn and act in a villaineous way.
That makes things interesting.

The only good thing about Jun is his shirt.
Hayate no Gotoku 531
I like it when he gets no-bullshit serious if the situation seems dire for his friends. Another reminder that he actually keeps his distance from all his love interests intentionally and probably could make them all fall with his latent relationship powers.

I'm probably late to the party here but holy shit did we get a ton of story progression in the latest Chapter of One Punch Man Webcomic. Damn One is advancing the plot like crazy now, we saw nearly every major S Rank hero and even got some mentions of characters like blast. Plus with every other hero quitting and trying to grow stronger I'm really curious what the hell is going on. Big things are on the move.
Oh yeah and what the Hell is the basement of the House of Evolution ruins that could be related to Saitama and the limiter removal

I started reading Real Account I+II and I honestly don't know why I read so many manga like this or Kamisama or like these "survival game" type manga.
I actually get uncomfortable reading them, especially more violent ones, but I can't help it.
I mean I'm a horror fan and watch a shit ton of horror movies but this feels different somehow.
Edit: OMG the collb at the end of Volume 2 had me dying.
Getting the main characters of ReAca, Kamisama, Knight in the Area and Fuuka to receive chocolate from the heroine of their series or Marble reveals the number of times they masturbate a week. This page fucking slayed me, especially his sister's face at the "24 times"

I remember this omake, it was hilarious.
Dungeon Meshi 1-5
Or a better cooking manga than Shokugeki no Soma
The plot is pretty original and the characters are fun to read.
I especially like Marsilla.

You're fine either way dude, Nozomi's top tier in both regards. But really, it's important to have both anyway. A yandere that isn't beautiful or a beautiful girl that isn't yandere are affronts to the rightful order of the universe.
