RIP laptop. Long live the laptop.
Paperweight Eye1
A shy doll-maker has her entire collection inexplicably brought to life by a mysterious young man, who then imprisons her in a gothic mansion and tasks her with creating 'inhabitants' for his own warped little world. Premise is interesting enough, and the first chapter hints at there being a slightly twisted undertone to the story. Looks like the final chapter(s)'ll be released shortly (it's only 2 volumes long) so I'll shelve it until then.

That depends on where you'll be sticking those fingers.

Holy shit, a Ludwig Revolution followup! Someone get me a direct line to gunbo's office. For the uninitiated, the original was a highly enjoyable shoujo series about a decadent corpse collector who toured the land encountering various fairy tale waifus.
Still debating whether I find those hands arousing or not.

Well, that flashback cleared up a few things. Also, I do hope Marie never falls in love with Kahrel. He has quite the god complex, and while he saved Marie's life once, it's because she's useful to him. He'd obviously not let the creator of his new world die because of one jealous doll

Consider that her hands might be like that because of how lonely, painful and filled with self-loathing Marie's love life is
She cries when she masturbates
Bonnouji, or Houkago Play perhaps?
Thanks for the info, though it's pretty disappointing.
It sounds a lot like the Holp Shuppan deal, which took away Break Blade. Some Japanese publisher are really giant assholes.

Kiriwo Terrible 1
Like Attack on Titan. Except not. The world's being terrorised by oversized monsters, and the MC fights them by transforming into one using a super special serum. He's aiming to be a hero, but unfortunately the sheer level of destruction he (inadvertently) causes means that everyone sees him as just another villainous monster. First chapter was goofy and entertaining enough that I'm curious to see where this goes, not least for the prospect of the eventual showdown with his sis (?).
If that turns out to be the case then my answer's now pretty obvious:
Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

How many times is Soma going to bust out that shit where he tells his opponent they don't understand the target audience of some dish?

Yeah, there doesn't seem to be any good reason for it.

d'awwww that flashback was really sweet. Guess next week we're going to see how he used the candy.
Tonari no Kashiwagi-san 1-22
Just started reading this on a whim. I /think/ it's good, maybe, but I dunno. At least it's cute anyway and I read like 22 chapters in a row so i guess it must be good?
Kashiwagi's friend is hilarious too. It's all pretty adorable if a little dumb.

This maybe one of the most literal answer to be had lol
Shokugeki no Soma
Aww that flashback. 3 chapters per fight seems to be the format then.
Soma may say that but the judges definitely liked Alice's dish, including how extravagant it was. If they like his more because it pulls off the homely feel better that's a different matter.
If Soma wins it with this attitude I'll be surprised. I was expecting something closer in level.

It's really just Fuuka pulling those two along. The supposed MC would feel insignificant if it weren't for the friendship with that idol

It's pretty obvious that he's also doing something experimental/outrageous judging by the last panel. Doubt he's going just by homeliness, though his outrageousness might also involve that as a theme.
Yeah but I mean the general attitude, whatever he did to the rice, still kinda comes off like he beat Alice more easily than what he had with Hayama. It's too soon to say this, I'm just calling a what if.

I feel like this is going to be a running theme whenever alice is in the equation as a rival, where they will say that she is technically superior but lacking "spiritually". Which isn't the point of molecular gastronomy but whatever.

Was it explained how Alice would keep her dish warm/fresh if eaten half a day later? I imagine Soma could win on technicality because her meal wasn't made to be eaten hours later. Heck I wouldn't be surprised if he pulls our a "those are dishes I made hours ago, the ones I cooked on the floor are here" to prove his point
Shokugeki no Soma 65
Adorable flash back and overall good chaptee, next chapter I imagine will be the end of his dish and a cliff hanger to the winner.

Wow that 201cm player is pretty aggravating of an opponent for them. Though he's pretty inexperienced so speed or just skills should give Karasuno the winning edge I bet.

Also first episode was incredible.

I gotcha. Could be okay but just as a one-off, I guess.
I think the thing was the nitrogen or whatever it's called that let off the mist, that it could keep the dish cool for hours.

Definitely still in the route where traditional bento > cooking with technology.

My feeling about Alice, when she makes dishes, it's all about herself and her superiority rather than the customer. I wouldn't call it lacking spiritually, just that she's the type who is in cooking for her own pride. That's why her dishes are so splashy, but lacks the kind of homeliness you find in Tadokoro's stuff or even in the meatiness of Nikumi's stuff. Nikumi's like TASTE THIS GODDAMN MEAT IT'S GLORIOUS and she sort of wants to share that with the person who will eat her dishes.

Yeah, I think that's probably how Soma will ultimately win in the end. His competition with his dad before the tournament does indicate that thinking about what the person wants is an important element in this tournament.

aww, dat grandma. The actual food detail is lost on me, 'cos I'm not versed in Japanese cooking, but that's alright because it's not like I'm reading this manga for the food anyway. Can't wait 'til we see who wins.
