Like, have you seen the quality of the background art deteriorating to noticeable proportion?
If anything, Oda needs more break. Drawing manga, or One Piece to be exact is his hobby to the point he become workaholic over it.

Oh well.
i guess Amazon still having some stock rather than not having them at all can be seen as a positive in all of this

amazon has the best deals on new stuff. Otherwise I'd probably browse used book stores to try my luck. I've gotten plenty of american comics that way but I've never gone looking for manga. The two are usually segregated in book stores in my experience and my american comics phase came at the expense of reading manga for ages.

What.
Introducing inconsequential characters only to spout unimportant drivels and to be killed off almost immediately *is* the definition of dragging it out.
What are the functions of the folks like this stupid D guy, his introduction and his death, serve to the overall story? None, nada, zip.
I guess I'm comparing to the typical Bleach standard. Ones where they take 3 chapters or so with a backstory no one cares for. Also showed that the other squad zero member is now there.
Honestly, I'll take one chapter fights rather than 2-4 ones like the Kurotsuchi battle. A lot of the villains have lame backstories in Bleach, and some of the fights feel like a waste of time. Making them one chapter like how YuYu Hakusho did it for weak enemies, I don't mind. Having every letter Quincy to have a month battle while having dry personalities, I'll pass.

Nice that we're getting more background on the nitro. It's nice to see them developed just beyond villains.

Gonna be betting on Reincarnation Ex Machina.

Amari Mawari 16
Kyouka is way more of the heroine of this manga than Amari. Please show Amari, Kyouka is a jerk
Taiyou no Ie
That's that then. Y'all freaked that drama's going to happen in the last second but it was painless. Even the novel thing happened and stopped happening within a couple pages, I'm okay with this.
We're already at the point where even if he knows who the novel's about, it won't really change anything about everything else he knows, but at least it'll be nice closure.

Hayate 468-469
Man that loneliness hit Nagi pretty hard all of a sudden. 469 was amazing, the author has complete mastery of what he's doing. Oda you could have given us SOMETHING about All Blue in Fishman Island, dangit, one thing!!!
Not sure about where the story is going with the jewels/dreams, but then again I never did, until they made a joke out of it.

Tokyo Ghoul ch34-46.5
The Gourmet is a decent villain, with a motivation that fits his nature, even though ultimately he didn't felt particularily important to the plot outside of forcing character growth to others. One has to wonder how the Doves never managed to find the restaurant though, since it doesn't seem to be particularily discreet.

Super-Conductive Brains Parataxis by Shintaro Kago
A gripping tale that plays with the human condition and the various stories that surrounds a pragmatic and heartless world, where one might have to beat their brains out in order to attain happiness. As such, thematically it toys with the definition and worth of one's life, thus making the readers question what truly defines humanity's heart and soul. The author skillfully combines moral dissonance and good ol' gore, painting a dystopic world in which the survival of a society costs an arm and a leg, all for the sake of one's flesh and blood. One also has to admire the creative and sometimes eye-catching, if rather gruesome, design of some of the tools used, despite their controversial nature. In other words, typical Shintaro Kago stuff.
I don't think I'm going out on a limb in stating that it's a pretty cold-blooded story, despite its tongue in cheek approach, so as a heads up be warned that it's not recommended to those for whom such content makes their blood boil, nor for the faint of heart. Don't lose your head over it however, and appreciate the madness! It will blow your mind~

From what I see the Gourmet restaurant is a secret society with wealthy members, that could easily conceal their movement. Also Tsukiyama (Gourmet) is from a wealthy family that seem to have authority. Considering his elegant high class personality outside his crazy moments.
Also your on the next arc which is one of my favorites in the series. Hope you enjoy
