I actually really like how anticlimactic it's gotten. The pacing is all thrown off so now I have absolutely no idea how things are going to play out, and that mystery has me excited.
I would still recommend it. I greatly enjoyed it before the current stuff. And even if I don't like the current direction it's going in, I still somewhat enjoy it week to week. The characters are still fun, and it still has the ridiculous stuff I like. Last few chapters have been pretty decent IMO.
Hmm, I'll get around to it eventually then.

Demon's Plan 1
Fairly solid first chapter, established the main duo and their relationship, established the shitty world they live in, and ratched up the scales in the finale giving our lead a good goal to works towards.

I am continuously confused by people who want Promised Neverland to be something it's not and never presented itself as.

Just get rid of Emma please.
It's Not My Fault I'm Not Popular
This manga continues to handle its gradual shift in tone like a pro. Tomoko has gone beyond just actually talking to people; she actually has friends now (or at the very least, someone she can get "real" with).
It's all good stuff, and I hope the author keeps it going for a while longer.

I thought it was a pretty boring chapter, since Fujiwara doing Fujiwara things isn't too fun unless she has someone to bounce off of. Ishigami with the save at the end though. Truly the best.

Demon's Plan 1
Sold. Bolo and Carlos relationship is all I needed, and then when both had a Demon's Plan, battle of the Demon's Plans will be pretty splendid. I wonder if Carlos will be the type of rival that just keeps showing up in the center of every bad action that happens and then they end up teaming up for some common cause in the deep part of each arc.

The Promised Neverland ch. 16
This is some strong decision making from these two.
I Am A Hero ch. 246
I don't get gassing the old people, or much of anything else in this manga lately come to think of it, but that expression on Not Asano's face as he was holding the kid is hilarious.

The Case Records of Professor Munakata 1-4
Not really feeling this, I expected a more Twilight Zone/Kagewani/Franken Fran kind of thing but its not supernatural and just deeply rooted in extremely specific Japanese history.

Like usual, really strong chapter, Black Burn is a really cool villain and I like how Tatsu is not so OP anymore. The fighting sequence all look super cool.
Demon's Plan
That first chapter was really strong, the characters well well set up and so were the world, the artstyle is fantastic, the characters designs are awesome AND that first cover was amazing!
My Hero Academia 116
The best Shonen title like usual, super strong chapter with a great conversation bewtween All Might and AFO. Also that ending YO!

Toriko END
So the hardcores who insisted Toriko would have an outerspace arc were right after all? Could have been interesting since the whole Galaxy is a table idea was intriguing, also was mindblown at the whole reason for the Eclipse
8/10.
BLack Clover 87
Definitely the best way to describe each chapter this arc.
Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V 16
Akaba Reiji finally feeling entertained by the BEST type of summon, Yuugo Shokan!!! Not the cheap synchro Shokan but Yuugo Shokan.

If they are any big three right now Black Clover would be the closest to it no? OP, MHA and BC are usually the highest.
Of course Haikyu is up there too.
Unless your speaking about the western shonen jump.

I highly doubt Promised Neverland will be a big seller to rival what peoples thought of Big 3 sales are.
BLack Clover at least has potential whenever its gets a big promo campaign and a long running tv anime...please manga goddesses.

Huh, so I'm apparently weird in that I love Air Gear in part because of its descent into insanity? Well, whatever. (To be fair I've been doing the English releases so I still haven't read the end, and have let the last like 2-3 sit waiting for them to amass, so I don't have the "full experience". And I suppose it's been a good while since I tried reading it). But still, I was totally okay with the sports manga going off the rails and including goddamn superpowers and genetic experiments and skate powered mechs and Obama schoolgirls and whatnot. Sure, it probably would've been "better" if it was more focused, but goddamn if I didn't enjoy seeing it hit the point where they were, like, fighting guys dressed in RPG outfits on the back of fighter jets or whatever. And at the very least, I'd say it was a more focused/held together form of crazy than goddamn Bleach, if nothing else (I think I spied the comparison in that discussion, but I'm admittedly too distracted to go back for it right now). Maybe more akin to what happened to Toriko or something. I dunno, but I liked it, at least.
Also, latest US Shonen Jump: New series seems promising, RWBY remains terrible, and it still seems like an especially goddamn bad idea to bring along Naruto's essentially untrained rookie son to the fight with guys who are as powerful as the insane end boss from the main manga or whatever they were claiming.

I think it sets up a great chance for enough danger to be present for Boruto to be transferred some of Kurama's chakras.

The never ending blender that is WSJ takes down another one, now the question is will it be a complete mess ending or will the mangaka go the smart route of a open-ended ending (tends to be less of a slap to the face).
I enjoyed Air Gear mainly because the central characters were amazing, probably top 10 manga bros, but around there being one King every week (??????like what?) and power levels (A teams) getting way retconned after their resort trip I started losing it. The art was still consistently great but I couldn't follow what the hell was happening and somewhere around the battle with Nue I noped out.
I don't want to say it, however...it peaked when Ikki got his regalia.

Wow that was fast.
To be honest, I'm not sure what the Promised Neverland is and will be at this point. It's not like they can keep up with the same premise with 100 chapters and it's not like they can fight the
It was pretty bad anyway, it's like the author never heard the word "pacing".

Neverland will turn into a shonen eventually
To fight demons, we became demons
I've sacrificed everything, what have you given?

I'm not complain about that they're still in the orphanage lol. (If the post refers to me)
I wonder if it's just Azami's fault (he's kinda bad, I give you) or people just getting tired of the formula. I'm not sure if getting rid of Azami will change much.
Oh no, I'm not referring to you. It's just something I hear a lot and it's weird. The manga is brand new still.

What genre PN will end up as is still completely unknown, just please don't go full on shounen.
Hey I'm not the one that's cancelling anything that dares look to be interesting. The way Viz are going they're going to have to run Ghost Tits and I imagine they'll sooner cancel the magazine than do that.
