I'm extremly happy that Ryuuhei is back in Jump, but bolded had my jaw fall to the floor. Boichi in Jump? Teaming up with the writer of one of my most liked series?
This is one hell of a newsbomb. One i would have never imagined to be real.

Boichi on Jump? What the fuckkk
Oh boy, this is going to be interesting. I really enjoyed Esprit and Fukashigi Philia, so here's hoping that his new one is good. Also looking forward to Tamura and ES21 and Kuroko guys new works.
Wonder what's going to end besides the current bottom 4, or do they have some extra space they can fill (the World Trigger and HxH hiatus spots for example)
Also great seeing Kimetsu no Yaiba doing great.
It came back from hiatus 3 weeks ago tho
Started watching the drama Tokyo Tarareba Musume, which is the adaptation of the manga of the same name by Princess Jellyfish's author. It's about 3 women in their 30s and their shit love life.
First episode was pretty cool. Plus the theme song is by Perfume so yay
Will check out the manga when it's over, just like I did with Juuhan Shuttai.

To be honest, I already have most of the older games/consoles I want. There's very little that didn't come out here that I really want to play from an older gen that I either don't have or is too text heavy to be worth a playthrough. I'm a dirty gaijin that if it's in Japanese I generally don't want to play it.
I have 38 volumes of Pokemon Special acting just as a collection items. But I'm fine with and honestly if the shipping cost isn't so prohibitive I would buy some manga that I really want on my shelf, just to support the author. I can read it somewhere else and as you might have know, on digital platform
I dunno. I think if I'm gonna buy stuff to support the author I'll buy merch since that seems to have a good correlation to what indicates a series is popular (sorta) and it's a little more useful to me even just as a "looks pretty" thing.
Yoooooooo, those two look like they could be legit. I loved Beezelbub an incredible amount (before the awful last arc) and Boichi drawing and not writing might mean the series doesn't go to fucktown like SKR did.

Hopefully the 6 jump starts to impact whatever plans US Jump had for new series to pick up/announce on their live stream.
Beelzebub was amazing to me until the arc where they went to some Beach Resort. I think I dropped it midway through that arc. But it was really, really cool and fun while it lasted.
I'd love to see the author that did Nurarihyon no Mago coming back to the Jump with a new series. NuraMago is one of my favorite shonen mangas from the last decade. Amazing art that got progressively better as the series advanced and the story was quite good. I was really sad when it was cancelled, but at least the Shonen Jump gave it three 60 page long chapters so he could wrap up the story (which was on its final arc) eventhough the final fight suffered from the lack of time and pages.

Damn Jump going HAM with this serialization round. I'll check em all out for sure but I'm definitely most interested in Tamura, and Fujimaki's new series as I loved Beelzebub and Kuroko. Inagaki and Boichi's new series should be interesting too. Haven't read all of Eyeshield 21 but what have read it great, and Boichi's art is really cool and very un-jump like so I expect them to be an interesting combination.
Either way, the next few months should be fun to watch (or read I guess). I do wonder if Fujimaki's new series will be as big of a hit with Fujoshi as Kuroko was.

How Many Light-Years to Babylon? 1-2
More new Dowman Sayman, this time featuring an MC's intergalactic quest to fuck the hottest girls in the universe. And also find out about his past or something. The premise isn't exactly what I'd want to see from this author, and the uncute monster girls aren't selling it either. Still, I'll stick with it for a while to see how/if it develops.

Yeah, I'm hoping he can at least finish the Rank Wars before he has to retire due to his health.
lol it's that guy that drew the Onodera Nisekoi spinoff that showed tits.

If that is really Chuuta's childhood friend...nice. I hope more come back. He has a great design.
Shocked Chuuta is actually pervy.

Not how I pictured Sister Krone being off'd I thought itd have been better if it was NormanRay to do it. Oh well.
Isabella is too perfect.
Food Wars
Taku is in this, lets go. I hope we get SoTaku + Erina I guess. Best team.

That combination sounds pretty promising.
And new stuff from the Beelzebub mangaka is also welcome. Such a good series with such an unsatisfying ending though.

Fujimaki did say he wanted to do a golf manga I believe, guess he's going through with it. I really liked the one shor he did that was more action, so I kind of hoped he might do something with that, but oh well.

Listening to the shonen jump podcast and it kinda blew my mind how much they misunderstood the ending of monday's shokugeki no soma chapter and spent so long speculating what the 3 on 3 meant and forgetting that Hayama got expelled.

Shokugeki spoilers
Apparently the Regiment de Cuisine is an actual team battle - you can basically help the other members of your team in their fights. I assume this is how they will justify Team Soma winning since Erina can just help all the other crappy members.
And DTL is gonna be sad with the team pairings. It's exactly as predicted - Soma, Erina, Joichiro vs. Doujima/Takumi/Tadokoro

Man this manga is frustrating. It could be SO good if it wasn't so set on making it seem like it was written by a pervy 12 years old.
It has a lot of good elements: the art is solid, the action and fights are entertaining and the concept of this warrior seeking revenge from the guys who betrayed him is good
But then just as you are starting to enjoy it is screws it up with its sexual content. Every single female character in this is super sexualized. There is this little girl and the "joke" is that she allways ends up in kinky clothes, there is this other girl who is allways half naked, then there is this older woman who looks like a type of dominatrix and then just as a more normal and badass female character is introduced, we find out that she really likes taking baths so after a while she is naked like half of the time.
Then we have the main character who apart from being skilled with a sword is also a sex god. Early on he basically overpowers an enemy by overwhelming her with his sex skills and then he has the dominatrix woman crazy for him becuase of his ultimate sex skills.
Oh and just recently a character got re-introduced and we know he is a badass because of how much sex he has and how he is shown in a room with several women he KO'd with his intense sex.
Holy shit, it's not even a power fantasy anymore. It's like a 12 years old sex-power fantasy.
Also Glenn.

All the other 7 heroes are generic evil/corrupt guys. But Glenn was amazing, easily the best character and concept of the manga.
He did a horrible thing in his youth, but it's now been 20 years and he is older, wiser and overall shown as a good guy trying to make the kingdom a better place for everyone. He is trying to atone for his sins by becomming the type of hero that the people think the 7 heroes are.
So it present this interesting dilemma because he did a very bad thing many years ago but he has very clearly changed and is working for the common good now. You can even draw comparisons to the real world. You can have someone who spent 10 years in jail for a crime but is now a changed man and working for a good cause. Does he still deserve a terrible fate for what he did many years ago?
And then the author goes and ruins him by reviving him. He went from this complex and interesting character to some generic evil guy who, as mentioned above, is mostly shown having lots of sex so we know how badass he is now

(NSFW?) How Many Light-Years to Babylon? ch1-2 by Dowman Sayman
A trio of an apparently amnesiac earthling guy, an alien, and a robot are on an intergalactic spacetrip.
On the road, they encounter various different planets with various different girls.
Then stuff happens.
A longer serialized story by Dowman Sayman, which is always welcome. Let's see how deep this galactic rabbit hole goes.
Someone's got their priorities at least.

You have to had at least read the General Furuichi's arc, (can't remember if it's before or after though probably after). The last great arc of the manga.
Furuichi probably was the best thing in the manga, and I'm not sure if I've read it. In any case, I may go back to reading the series, maybe see how it ends now that it's done.
Except, ya know, the auction that starts the whole story

Apparently not - its a team effort and Doujima and Takumi get along very well, whereas Erina is in full despair mode over her dad and Soma and Jouichirou just fight the entire time.

Saki needs to get in this, if Mirai dies
Mukaido though, I think he'd die anyway, was sad at the scene when the daughter was talking about the wedding dress

IIRC you can't pay through Paypal after merging accounts. Other than that, no, there aren't any other disadvantages really. I only had a small handful of things when I merged but everything carried over just fine.
