I really hate that I'm all "Man, unnecessary fan-service is turrible, we need more mangame with respectful treatment of women characters" and then I read that manga and they do a shot of the angel's butt-cleavage and my brain turns off.

THE iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls - U149 3
Arisu in Wonderland was the first thought that came to me as well, but that was a pretty vicious reactionary death stare. On the plus side, she seems to be established as the most prominent of the group now. Not sure what the fuss over New Generations is about - Rin's the only decent idol from the main trio.
Angels are beings that transcend humanity and gender, so there's nothing hypocritical about your stance. Nothing at all. Nothing at all. Nothing at all.

I don't know why that lady needs a knife to cut with all the edge going on in that panel. Bleh.
Also read some of Amalgam of Distortion, not feeling it.

So that's 2/3 of the dangerous trio who're dangerously cute. Kino referred to Kyurii as scary so I'm assuming it's a nocturnal split personality kind of deal. Shame she (also) had to establish a bond with Papi of all characters.

Super Space Gal was incredible, but this was kind of funny chapter, how does she always walk in when Chuuta is being so pervy.

Reading that one shot of the new Kenshin side story makes me realise I need to read the original since Kenshin is a cool guy and all.

I'm going to save you some time. Don't read Kenshin, or at least not all of it. Maybe to the point where the anime ends, but then watch Samurai X and stop. Kenshin jumps the shark in the worst way at the end and it's kind of ridiculous in retrospect.
Stone Ocean
Member
I don't remember a single thing about Kenshin's final arc besides the big bad having the lamest character design in the series
You mean the movie that gives them all TB? Yeah, No. DON'T do that.
FlowersisBritish
fleurs n'est pas britannique
Does it? All i remember of that movie is it was about the only good part in the fucking ridiculous final arc, which was Kenshin's backstory. If i remember right, i think there was a robot as a bad guy in the manga arc, not the movie? So that is immedietly a plus.
Infinite Justice
Member
Eh the final arc in the manga was ok, no where near the likes of Kyoto but still passable.
@ the bolded: You have to be specific here, if its Trust and Betrayal then yes watch that then stop but if you are also including Reflections then i would say nah to that one (watch it if you are bored and want to see some bullshit).
Also the anime didn't end for a while and was littered with filler garbage so stop once the Kyoto arc is done.
There where 2 sets of Ovas that where released under the Samurai X name
Trust and Betrayal - His past and the good one
Reflections - the one Conan is talking about
Also the guy wasn't a robot but he had a grenade launcher arm (an also a big ass cannon arm) to replace the one he lost.
GoldCrusader

Oh but I already watched up to the Kyoto arc and some of the later filler. Around what chapter was I around?
Or could I just not read and just watch those movie mentioned?

The final kenshin manga arc was great, tied Kenshin's story up nicely.

Read the remaining chapters then watch the Trust and Betrayal OVA. They actually have a link to each other.
apparently the Kyoto epilogue starts at Act 147 and it will eventually lead into the new arc

The last arc was great though. I mean sure the final villain was stupid and his minions but everyone got a cool fight and Kenshin finally got to put down his sword.
Nearly everyone got their happy ending and it was a completion of Kenshin's journey from man killer to wandering swordsman to

Yup. It's a shame they never got to adapt it when they did the anime.

Honestly having completely read Rurouni Kenshin recently on a whim, I'm not sure how I feel about the story continuing past the last arc which it seems is happening now. I feel like it provided good closure and I don't really feel like it needs to be continued in any way

I'd be cool with a story in the universe centered on kenshin's friends and new characters as long as Kenshin mostly stayed home and was a family man.

I would as well but I don't see this happening
Okay, so I took a browse through the list of everything that once ran in Shonen Jump, and pulled out everything long/notable enough to have its own Wiki page that I don't personally have experience with, skipping a handful of things that didn't look like my jam (pretty much just the stuff that was an immediate "this is going to bombard you with massive amounts of fanservice, and that's its primary purpose" flag). I'm at least somewhat familiar with a number of these (and furthermore the mangaka behind a number of them, too), but I have no experience with these series in any format.
So yeah, if you guys could throw out suggestions as to what of the following is worthwhile/not worthwhile, that'd definitely be helpful!

Plus just a general question as to whether or not the older Go Nagai stuff is worth a look/import. (I've generally enjoyed going through most of Tezuka's big older works, so going old certainly not opposed to noticeably old-school stuff. That said, I know that Tezuka was a straight up genius and master of his craft, and I'm honestly not familiar enough with his works to know if it's fair putting him on the same level. (Totally know that he's a big name worthy of respect, but like I said, I just haven't really dug enough into his stuff anywhere near enough to actually compare him to Tezuka)).
Edit: There were a handful of older titles that didn't have a wiki that seem to have had a long enough run to be note-worthy that I'm not trying to disrespect at all. Just didn't want to do the deeper research than just scrolling and clicking at this time. But if anyone wants to bring those up and comment on them that'd be cool to.

SketDance is a must read and must watch (loved the anime).
ST&RS is great and proof JUMP needs more space manga.
Saiki Kusuo is a good read, but also a good watch (each of its episodes are like five minutes)
I love Pyuu to Fuku Jaguar, its really weird. Captain Tsubasa is great if you like soccer. Saiki is a great gag manga. Enigma was fun while it lasted. Oumagadoki Zoo is from the creator of My Hero Academia and its pretty cool.

Kimetsu no Yaiba 1-10
This series has kind of a slow so I'm stunned it actually has done well in WSJ. I'm not a big fan of the choice to have much of the story told via narration by the lead character but the story is good and the action is great. Hoping viz picks this up since the fan translation is really rough.

City Hunter is great, but there's only English scans up to a certain point and there's no official translation.
Level E actually has an anime that is hilarious, watch that.

Helck Still so god damn good. Screw more SAO, someone make Helck into an anime. It deserves it.
One Punch Man (One) Oh hey, this is a thing still. I actually really like the pragmatism of the lesser heroes working together to solve a very difficult scenario. Reminded me of DnD campaign's where we tried to build off each other to win. I'd really like of One's next series is something along the lines of that, because I think he's pretty much stopped caring about One Punch Man.

Link and NSFL/W tag would be appropriate.
Really though not every enjoys seeing/reading disgusting shit like this.
Thanks a ton, guys! This is definitely helpful stuff!
That's actually no problem on my end, as I've generally been picking up the Japanese volumes and reading them for stuff that doesn't have a US release (yay for knowing Japanese!)

So, why limit yourself to Shonen Jump? There are better magazines out there.
Level E is good, yeah.
You're lucky. I'm stuck waiting since there's no hope of an official English release, given it's age it's a miracle this much as been adapted.

It's a cycle. Every few months I would ask people to stop posting NSFW stuff and they just ramp it up and push it until it gets to NSFW levels again :-/
This cycle has been going for literally a decade of manga threads.

Nozomi x Kimio 30
Nozomi x Kimio is a sports manga. I feel like this pairing predicament would've resolved itself without the grand fixer's presence, but I guess it's partially about her growth as well. Not sure what the significance of Mahiru's observation near the end is, if any.

Nanashi no Asterism 17
YA THINK? It's almost like he has some kind of ulterior motive. While this particular paradise is imploding, I'm sure the slumber party will help resolve the problems in the other. What could possibly go wrong?
While I agree, I also can't say I dislike the surprise shocks in this thread every now and then, most of which I'd miss because I usually don't click on spoilers/links. But that little fun probably isn't worth it if some posters find it uncomfortable and off-putting.
