[A Huge Battleship]

7th Garden 1

This is not an upgrade. Why would you bait and switch like that? Why?

A gardener accidentally awakens a sleeping demon, then makes a contract with her to stop the Spanish Inquisition from purging his loved one(s). And by contract, I mean he just gets an oversized sword. Meh. The art's more appealing than the story.

Nisekoi vol 8-15 extras (Magical Patisserie Kosaki-chan!)

It bothers me that someone genuinely thought this needed a full spin-off series.

Ishikawa Emi draws Yomi Yumi with her body in one piece for the first time in ages (and says as much on her twitter).

Pokémon - Dating a Team Magma Grunt 1

Have you ever wondered what it'd be like for the Hoenn MC to date a grunt from Team Magma? No? Me neither. But someone made a cute manhwa about it anyway.

I've never gone from not recognizing a thing's existence as a possibility, to it being the most important existence in my life this quickly

This sounds as good a concept as the fanart I saw that literally depicted all the protags as ten-year-olds instead of the fifteen or sixteen year olds they're actually drawn as and how all the various criminal groups were instead overwhelmed by their adorableness

Gintama Prediction


Nobume.... Oboro and Gintoki are all related

calling it now... some assassin clan... hence why Gintoki has that killer mood swings and red eyes


Something likely happened to Gintoki before he was adopted by his Sensei

Gintoki is a CROW

So guys here's a question, which manga do you think has a better chance of coming back from haitus D-Gray Man or Hunter X Hunter?

Hoshino or Togashi take a pick.

 

[Usobuko]

Just realize My Hero Academia author was the same one that made Oumagadoki Doubutsuen. I just couldn't get into the latter despite numerous attempt.

Good for him to find success at last.

HxH, only because we know it will come back at some point since Togashi seems to care. While Hoshino seems to have little urge to ever touch her series again.

You know I would say Togoshi also, but since Hoshino showed pictures of D-Gray Man on Instagram and she's going digital for drawing her manga rather than traditional. I wanna go for the latter on this one. I mean you gotta keep that faith going.

Spoiler

RIP me

Also about Togashi caring about his series. I don't know man he's really lazy. If he did care about his series he wouldn't have went back into haitus after 9 chapters not even 10. At least in Hoshino's case she seems to have had an injury while Togashi's only excuse is his laziness.

Huh, did not know that. It doesn't even look similar enough for me to remember that either.

Quick search on Baka shows that a few of them are on their debut works? Could be promising, this is what number 3 cover looks like.

I wonder how many now-relatively mainstream authors started off drawing porn. Like, as a percentile of all mangaka.

Tsukimizuki Rikai no Tantei Satsujin 01

A transfer student appears in a wheelchair, kisses the protagonist and vows to kill him for killing her in an online detective murdering game.

Uh huh.

Nisekoi 153

Chitoge>Tsugumi>Onodera in terms of school trip scenarios. But Tsugumi's is weaker than I would have thought (mostly due to raku being included in the play).

Hopefully Marika's blows them all out of the water. And Chitoge doesn't interfere.

"Hey buddy how's it been?"
"Oh you know, just killed my mother and have become super crazy and stuffs."

I'm really digging this one, sometimes a little more than the main series. Mostly I love how quick everything is. Also the multiculturalism is a huge benefit to the series because it keeps places interesting. And the

The dragon dance was pretty cool.

On the other hand, it's like everyone has some angst just waiting to erupt.

 

[Nightengale]

Magi 251

Doubt everything will go well with this confrontation.

"Let's tell him everything about Alma Toran!"

"Yo, sup Haku, your mother was an even bigger queen bitch than you thought she was. Not only your brothers and father, she was responsible for the destruction of an entire parallel world, and she planned to do the same with the current world!"

"Oh, and by the way, destiny."

If anything, Alma Toran will only reinforce Hakuryu's convictions and wrath to kill Kouen, since Kouen's path was laid down and subtly supported by Gyokuen, and even if not true anymore, was a reflection of the what Gyokuen planted.

Netgame no Yome wa Onna no Ko ja nai to Omotta? 01

Our protagonist has been traumatized after confessing to a girl in a MMO who turned out to be a guy. Now, he's been proposed to by another female character.

And I guess harem antics? So uh, yeah, the whole premise kinda gets resolved in the first chapter (is his new wife actually a girl?!?) so dunno where they are going to go with this.

Have you seen the anime? I've heard it's about as good as the anime in terms of storytelling, and adds its own details here and there but more or less follows the same general flow. Although, I feel like you could get it used for cheaper?

Prison School 148

Yeah, this chapter made me nervous! Cannot wait till new prez gets hers, she's so annoying. Also, Andre's inevitable super saiyan transformation is going to be epic

Gunslinger Girl 1 - 100

That epilogue was a pile of trash, definitely did not give me any hope for the world. Easily the worst part of it all. Now I'm depressed and sad during the holiday season. This manga has failed its purpose.

It was good, all things considered though. I wished it would have concentrated more on the fratello relationships, easily the most engaging part of the manga, and forewent the formulaic and boring mob plot. The relationships between the girls and their handlers were developed well, but it still felt a bit raw.I also really didn't like how flashbacks were handled in this. Every handful of chapters or so, there would be a flashback to a scene already shown previously with either minor details added or unnecessary scenes added.

I've read that the anime does stuff a bit differently so I'll be checking that out.
