Erza seems to hit some kind of fetish button for Japanese artists, because there is a lot of professional Erza fanart.

It's all from Fairy Tail magazine, so my guess it's commissioned art by the publisher. Hm, more Comics GAF, but not sure if anyone posted Sandoval's print (he worked on the Marvel crossover):

Well, as far as food porn, this probably the 2nd weirdest one that i have ever read. The 1st one is the pringless porn for those wondering.

They're just giving an opportunity to the less talent. Plus if they fail there's a fallback plan.
Oh cool, I'm coming to your house to pick up your car. I've got some money.
Not saying what he did was correct, but if I ever have an interaction with a thief I hope its with one paying me back the full value of the item he's taking.

Plus the item wasn't supposed to be sold in the first place. Yassan was at fault there.
 
Keijo 9

looks like there is some family strife at Miyata's household (maybe not approving due to being a Judo house?) hopefully that will be dealt with soon enough and with Nozomi being there.


Keijo 9

For a second I actually thought she had a penis.
Thank God that's not the case.

So no one is interested in their respective sports?

Well this sport apparently gives them a lot of cash, plus it could be seen as character building since you are going against people from all sorts of sporting disciplines in a "new" sport.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

I think it was supposed to be for sale.

The bass lacked a price tag and Yassan was really uncomfortable parting ways with it, plus Nick refers to it as "my bass", so I interpreted it as Yassan selling it cause he had a thing for Yuu and Fuuka, even though he wasn't supposed to.

I still think Fuuka's alive and in a coma.

Genre shift into a supernatural battle manga where Fuuka is an angel who must battle the forces of Death's army to come back to life and be by Yuu's side.

So the guy that took care of her as a baby is writing her an eroge character and dialogue?
This is all kinds of wrong.

Oh God, now they tried to coerce her to perform a fellatio on the precious mentioned guy. After her various refusals to do so they ended up getting her to suck his finger instead.

Koe No Katachi - 62 - End

Last arc or this series was a bit of a disappointing with everything going perfeclty, and this ending is an extension of that.
Even Ueno just changed personalities in the last few chapters and gave up on Ishida.

Still no actual dating between Ishida and Nishimiya, but hey, they held hands!

Best thing of the chaptet was the reveal that Ueno is now going down the Yuri route.

Tokyo Ghoul ch47-79

Well that certainly was an enjoyable arc. I found the pacing and narrative to be much stronger, and we get introduced to new characters, some of which are pretty entertaining (was Juuzou making a Jojo reference?) or interesting. There seems to be a bigger emphasis on fights, but so far they were all pretty good, as none of them felt dragged out.

Kaneki's... treatment, and the ensuing transformation was pretty brutal. Poor guy just can't catch a break. I did find his jump in power surprising though, awakening or not. I'm guessing there will be a proper explanation later? His shift in personality is to be expected, though not unwelcome, and I must say it makes him more intriguing as to what actions he may undertake next. He's finally stopped to just getting dragged around and seems to have a goal in mind, or a semblance of it.

Touka gets more development as well with the introduction of her brother and a flashback, although she herself didn't really get much time to act or shine. She seems to be stuck in a lull right now, but I hope she'll take action soon. Same thing for Hide, who has been rather lacking in screentime these past few chapters.

Oh, is that yuri I see? Did Ueno just redeem the ending?
 

Today's new gets. I'm completely on the Oresama Teacher train!

I still have another volume of something else where I'm waiting for USPS to deliver during normal business hours (like not at 9 PM) and vol.4 of Oresama Teacher is said to be coming tomorrow.

The definite "high point"
lol
of the series was Ishida's fall. Everything after that increasingly got worse until we reach a rather poor, not very satisfying conclusion. Even with the issue of everything getting wrapped up so perfectly with Ishida waking up, I think the main problem this series had was the treatment of the secondary characters (which is partially the reason for the first issue). Nothing really comes of characters like Mashiba, Kawai, and most disappointingly Ueno. Mashiba's still fucked up (and not really that interesting), Kawai is still completely delusional, and Ueno went from (in my opinion) the most interesting character in the whole series to "figure it out yourself, b-baka!" and getting mad at the girl that won in a lol comedy manner.

For a series that got as dark as it did with attempted suicide, horrific elementary school bullying, etc. it didn't even attempt to take any risks with the conclusion.

I'll definitely check out the anime version (if only for the reactions, lol) but I'm still very disappointed.

Just to be sure, what is the last chapter of GUNNM LO? Just making sure I'm not missing anything before reading the new series.
The number, you mean? That would be episode 124 (or 129, if you're following the serialization instead of the volumes).
 
Yamada 135

There is a direct correlation between the quality of a chapter and the amount of time focused on Odagiri.

This chapter was terrible.
 
Nanatsu no Taizai 104

I always wondered why King didn;t have any wings.... Having an arc dedicated to those two Sin characters is great! They have the most interesting pasts to discover

Past Ishida falling was dumb.

I completely agree with everything hipsterpants said.

Oh, okay. That's good. I thought, earlier in the year, Alita's story was ending for good and that the final volume was going to close the story. I had no idea they were going to do a whole new serialization.

Yamada and the Seven Witches 135

Well, that was about as expected besides the Shiraishi stuff, which was bad.

This overtake the SC is still dumb though.
 
I'm so salty over Ueno. All this time spend developing and exploring her character only to watch her become generic anime losing girl #12432649 as soon as Ishida wakes up. What a waste of a character.

UQ Holder 57-58

HMMMMM gee I wonder how this will end. If this series had more interesting characters it would be pretty good. We have hot blooded shonen teenager, level-headed companion with a not-crush on the MC, violent OP girl that only seems to get beaten by even more OP magic (I'm pretty sure she already has a different personality than she did when she was first introduced) and some robot assistant dude that's pretty bland.
 
Boku no Hero Academia 9

I am really starting to love this series more with every other chapter


Loving how the Protag isn't a dumb-ass and instead strategies his plans

You forgot the hot powerful girl who's sole job is to lose her clothing in every battle she gets into

Can't disagree with any of this. It's criminal how nothing was really resolved with the side characters. The fallout from Ishida's fall could've lead to more interesting things, but everything's just magically fixed when he wakes up. It felt cheap and unearned.

Today's new gets. I'm completely on the Oresama Teacher train!
Good man. I've totally forgotten about Oresama Teacher, I'm going to have to reread it at some point. It's too bad the translations fucking suck.

As always, I tend to let some of the manga I follow build up before playing catch up. But is there any hint of Soma travelling to experience fancy cooking from around the world?

It was like when Vegeta went up against Freeza and got massacred.

Oh, it's already over? I uh...at least Pedro came back. Resolving with hand holding is just incredibly.....eh. Like it's lewd, sure, but man I am disappointed. I'm sad that this just kind of ends.
So Shimada...

Wow that fucking twist at the end of 30. This series has like a twist every other chapter now.
And that is one uneasy alliance.
