Tokyo Ghoul is a series I'd have kept reading if not for this thread talking like ~100 or so chapters ahead and I realized I have no fucking idea who even 1 of the named characters is and I decided "this gonna get dumb I'm out"

Most of Tokyo Ghoul's additional characters flesh out existing groups -- organizations filled with actual people. They haven't actually added any new factions since the beginning of :re, just slowly unveiled more and more players to the reader's viewpoint.

Man, Prison School has kinda gone downhill imo. At first it was good because it was kinda realistic with the prison and everything, but ever since the USC got imprisoned it's just been getting a bit too ridiculous and I'm starting to find a lot of the jokes falling flat. Especially the whole pissing situation with Hana, that shit's just gotten so stupid. It's a shame because I really enjoyed it at first.

But I continue to read because I must know what the hell happened with the principal.

Hooray, its back! Now where's my english volumes. ;_;

Like where the story headed, I was worried we would be without Ontan and Kadode for too long. Also lmao at Ontan's brother being a hot shot in high school, the transition was perfect.

[Viridian6]

Prison School went from glorious smut to regular smut after they got out of prison. And I despise what the author did to best character Meiko.

It still has its moments now and then, such as right now.

Kinda realistic?
You know some scary ass schools.

There was a bit of a lull between arcs, I agree, but the only thing that annoys me in current Prison School is the development of Meiko, everything else is a straight 10 for me. It's just ridiculously awesome.
And nothing involving Hana was ever a let-down. The whole romance with Kyoshi is some of the best in entertainment history, pissing and all.

I don't think using kisses with a girl in love with you as a means to an end is really all that nice Tota.

[A Huge Battleship]

Mechanical Meldina 1-13 (END)

Man, Robot Wars suddenly became a lot more one-sided.

Meldina Stalina, aka Mechanical Meldina, is a humanity hating machine fanatic from a renowned (and largely dead) family. She stumbles across an oversized, crab-esque machine in a junkyard (which she inspirationally names 'Machina') and begins an elongated chain of events delving into the sordid history behind her parents' deaths, their family secrets and blah blah blah.

I don't really have anything positive to say about this series. It had a handful of interesting ideas, but they were all asphyxiated by the author's inability to tell a coherent story. At least it was put out of its misery relatively quickly.

 

[phaze]

Prison School

Hana just shot herself in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can get a boyfriend by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is to repent by kissing Chiyo's feet.

---
I'd generally agree that PS has been subpar most of the time lately but I'm not sure how much of it is, me catching up and having to read it weekly and how much the fact that they're no longer in the titular Prison. The various, ridiculous, escape keikakus and the resulting tension was probably my favourite thing about it and outside of Hana&Kiyoshi under blanket, (which dragged a lot IIRC) all this buildup for the current battle felt flat for me.

Tower of God

lol another power up for Bam ? He just got one, supposedly ground breaking one 10 chapters ago. This series combines the worst of Naruto, OP, and Bleach yet for some reason, I still enjoy it to an extent.

Love Tyrant 29

Haha, well I mean as realistic as it could be with a prison in a school. But now with the pissing thing, the Meiko carbonated drink mask, and the cavalry battle... things have just gotten a bit too out of it for me. I think Hana's a great character and her thing with Kiyoshi is great, but the part where they were naked in the futon was just stupid.
Thinking about it I can't really recall much of what's happened since the USC were imprisoned because I've just been skimming through it without paying too much attention. Like I said I mostly want to know what happened with the principal.

Are you fucking kidding me.
The Uroboros with Hana is one of the, IF NOT THE most amazing manga moments in recent history.

BAITO SAKI WA "AKU NO SOSHIKI"?!

Cute and interesting webmanga about a dude who joins an evil organization as a part-time job in order to make money for his adopted brothers and sisters after their orphanage is destroyed. He joins the New Weapons Testing department run by the sociopathic Dr. and one of the four Executives of the organization Antares, Ladywulf. This is pretty much just an excuse to have him test stupid weapons in combat against the heroes of justice, some of whom happen to be his classmates and sister. With hilarious results.

It's all comedy here folks. Even though it keeps falling into a couple tropes it sidesteps them pretty deftly almost every time. Of course Ladywulf is the beautiful senpai at school but they even sidestep silly romance stuff well. A ghost causes the MC to trip into her box of underwear when he helps her move but she doesn't react even a little and just takes a picture of him and blackmails him into eating lunch with her everyday to dissuade the idea everyone at school got that she's a Lesbian Ice Queen. Or there's a ghost in his apartment who keeps trying to scare him out but he thinks is just his tired work delusions. Or how his sister has a crush on her hero partner so the MC focuses on just him in battles.

It's surprisingly funny. And the dude who does it is on Patreon I think, which is interesting.

This is a really good manga, enjoying it so far. The parts with the ghost girl are great, I wonder if he'll ever become aware of her.

 

[TheRealTalker]

Bloody hell is the Haikyuu anime is soooooooo good

They did well to re-create those two page spread panels that occurred in the manga. Such a great adaptation (season 2 is especially hype inducing) and that soundtrack THAT soundtrack.


Wanted to spread it out a bit so that I had something to watch before the spring season but couldn't help but fully catch up.
