I think a large part of it is that the novel isn't even all that long so the manga format feels awkward for it.

 

[BatDan]

One Piece continues to dominate, as per usual.

 

[dakkumauji]

Prince of Tennis sells that well still? Dang.

Pretty boys, jRPG level tennis action, what's not to like about it.

Interesting spread:

Unrelated edit: Oh, Takako Shimura just posted an illustration on her tumblr

 

[Rebel Leader]

Iron Knight 9

Im guessing the twist at the end, sadly, did nothing to help make the series leave from being the lowest ranked in jump

It needs to get up.

 

[Shouta]

Guy why are you so badass. Naruto should've been titled Guy!

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Naruto

HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIT

Guy beating the living crap out of Madara. Such an epic chapter! Cannot wait for it to be animated. The Lee gate opening fight was one of the best fights I have ever seen in an anime series.

 

[Angry Grimace]

After the last chapter I thought she was maybe just putting on an act, but I like this idea better.

It sort of makes sense, given the only information Isao gave about himself is stuff that Mari could have figured out by simply watching him and she obviously knows how to break into his house. Given how much the author likes writing normal-seeming girls who are actually deranged, I'm pretty much expecting it.

 

[Kabuto]

Bleach

I might not be getting something obvious but I don't get Zaraki this week after re reading the chapter. From the Bleach Wiki:

Some time later, Kenpachi killed Kenpachi Kiganjō, the captain of the 11th Division, in a single blow in front of over two hundred members of the Division. As per the 3rd Captain Qualification Trial, Kenpachi became the new captain of that division. By killing Kenpachi Kiganjō, he became the official and uncontested holder of the title, Kenpachi, as well as becoming the 11th person to hold the title.

He officially had the Kenpachi title already so why is he acting like he just got it?

33. Omairi Desuyo #2 (17,567 / 17,854)
36. Honto Yajuu #7 (16,724 / 17,069)

BL domination. Omairi Desuyo deservices it as its one of the finer bl titles around, though they spend more time just being all nice and friendly even two volumes in.

Because Unohana was the first Kenpachi and had never been defeated. She simply was shifted over to the Fourth Division.

Yeah but I didn't think that'd be Top 10 good.

Edit:

Nisekoi 115 - So Shuu was along just for the pictures? Meh. And the grandfather was just joking about dying? Meh. This arc was a waste--

Oh. Uh ...this wasn't a good week for grandparents, I guess. RIP.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Nisekoi

Should I be shocked Ruri has the best arcs?

Ruri > Chitoge > Tsugumi >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Marika > Onotsundera > Onodera

 

[Averon]

Nisekoi 115

Smooth move there, Shuu. Why isn't he the MC?

 

[thesaucetastic]

Nisekoi 115
If it were ever in question, we now have solid proof that Ruri is the best girl.

Also Shuu is obviously best guy (as if he even has competition in this manga).

This definitely hasn't been the week for grandparents tho

 

[bigkrev]

Well looks like Viz/ Shoujo Beat licenses rescued DN Angel digital only though :/

I honestly have no idea if I even got all the Tokyopop releases, lol.

Is DN Angel really Shoujo? I've never read it

 

[scy]

Well, it's in a shoujo magazine.

 

[Save 'N Quit]

TWGOK 260

Bless my heart.

This one scene makes up for everything that happened.

 

[bigkrev]

Well, it's in a shoujo magazine.

Literally the only thing is know about the series is that the MC is a boy with red hair, and it didn't look like Shoujo!

Actually, biggest thing out of this is the price- it's 5 bucks (on sale for 4) instead of the 7 they jacked all of their prices up to a few months ago

 

[scy]

I really do like his character designs in general (/duh, cute girls being cute). Hope whatever he does next has more excuses for waifus. We need more wars.

lol

Hm. It has it's less shoujo-y behind-the-scenes plot with the Phantom Thief / Dark Mousy stuff, I guess? The entire plot kind of revolves around the whole other person the main guy turns into and stealing dangerous works of art and so-on.

Edit: Oh yeah, it also has Risa who's unbearable 99% of the time.

 

[PhillipCostigan]

Nisekoi 115

Damn, them feels

RIP old man.

Good guy Shuu comes to the rescue.

Ruri's pretty damn good. Deserving of her spot behind Chitoge.

 

[bigkrev]

Nisekoi 115

Shuu and Ruri both move up my list.

Tsugumi>Shuu>Ruri>Onodera>Chitoge>Marika>The non-harem members (Fuu and Paula)> Haru

 

[dakkumauji]

Love triangles, pretty boys, lots of slashable pairings, it's pretty shoujo.

Niwa x Satoshi || Dark x Krad

can't be shoujo without at least one

Crisis averted!

This was actually quite the good chapter. Also dat ending.

RIP grandpa.

Mannnnn, if only I could go back in time and convince some group to pick this up. :[

Reminds me how great this series is.

Nisekoi 115:

Surprised someone died, how sad. Shu giving her the picture at the end was very nice. What a sweet arc, ignoring the haremflags in the middle.

 

[dakkumauji]

Sentou Hakai Gakuen Dangerous 04

Death flagssssssss

And also, yes, that was some eye scream

 

[IntelliHeath]

Hey MangaGAF

I took a break from one manga for long time, so I actually forget name of manga. I was recommended by someone in chatroom.

Here is summary from what I can remembered.

It was somewhat empty high school

Spoiler

had somewhat small amount of students that probably died from their previous life with regrets or suicide. Few students found a tunnel underground (through a tree if I remembered correctly) and fought against few people in the tunnels including a girl from ancient time.

 

[Crimsonlink]

LTTP but here are my reactions to the chapters this week.

Naruto

WOO Go GAI!!! Beat the crud out of Madara while you can and make sure to take his eyes out lol. Didn't like the others crashing the party but Lee helping out was nice.

Bleach
Yo I'm Kenpachi Zaraki and I'm gonna cut you up no matter what your power is lol.

The imagination guy sucks ass. Why imagine yourself as steel when you can imagine Kenpachi has will to kill. Battle won right there lol.

One Piece
MIA

Dragons Rioting
Kinda weak chapter but at least the action is going to start.

Nisekoi
Shuu is showing why he is best guy in the manga.

Dem feels ;_; Goodbye Ruri's grandpa, you almost got Ruri into Raku's harem but you steered her right towards Shuu.

Thats it for now.

 

[dakkumauji]

Witch Craft Works 32

I'm sure there was some plot going on but I was more interested in the penguin-bear-rabbit-monobear face off we had here instead.

I wonder what the Index Fund and/or ETF equivalent in Masochist Economics is 'cos I'd invest madly into that shit.

Naruto and Bleach
Damn! This is just the week of the badass. Guy being a bad as a with pretty neat teamwork. Kenpachi being a badass hopefully on Novel Kenpachi levels. Good week for both. PEACE.

 

[Save 'N Quit]

Ana Satsujin 6-8

Serial killer waifu is pure.

MC might as well accept that he likes seeing her murder someone.

 

[scy]

Serial murder moe is in.

 

[TheRealTalker]

Nisekoi

Should I be shocked Ruri has the best arcs?

Ruri > Chitoge > Tsugumi >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Marika > Onotsundera > Onodera

You speak the truth...but for me Chitoge is first since her back stories are more fleshed out... Also extra minus points to Ruri for always pushing Onodera as a supporter


Also Shuu is my bro

Couldn't careless about Raku... He had some arcs where he shined but later destroyed them with the multiple Onodera squared filler chapters

 

[Unknown One]

If Madara didn't have the 10 tails in him, he would have been dead.

 

[Averon]

If Madara didn't have the 10 tails in him, he would have been dead.

Even before he got the 10 tails, he got smacked around by all the tailed beasts and only lost an arm. Though he did have Hashi cells in him at the time, so that probably upped his durability.

 

[dakkumauji]

Baby, kokoro no mama ni! 01

A baby trolls a guy as he tries to get closer to his crush.

I was a little glad they explained the origin of the baby at least and I like the main character getting played with by the baby. It's a fun read.

 

[scy]

Baby, kokoro no mama ni! 01

A baby trolls a guy as he tries to get closer to his crush.

This is totally the best way to put it too.

Kind of curious if there's anything to the "mama" thing or if it's really just her trolling the shit out of him for the hell of it.

 

[dakkumauji]

Maybe she knows the future.

Or saw how pitiful he looked.

 

[scy]

future babies sent back to thwart evil?!

Most likely case is the crush isn't one-sided and she's seen him before.

Doesn't explain the mama part though. Well, besides trolling him.

 

[astrogamer]

Nisekoi 115
Pretty good arc. Nice Shuu and Ruri moment at the end
RIP Grandpa

 

[dakkumauji]

future babies sent back to thwart evil?!

Sounds like another series.

Most likely case is the crush isn't one-sided and she's seen him before.

Yeah, but that's a boring reason.

Doesn't explain the mama part though. Well, besides trolling him.

Maybe the baby just calls everyone she likes mama.
