I am going to be an adult here and actually read Rookies first before I decide if you're wrong or not.
Slam Dunk holds the crown in my life currently.
Slam Dunk is no slouch for sure, but I'm partial to baseball and these last few chapters had me speaking to my monitor.
Why's that? It's as much a sports manga as something like Touch or H2, and I'd consider those sports manga as well.

Touta is so silly, and all the kids with him. Probably the funniest chapter in awhile. Ultimately the manga did redeem itself and is shaping up to be something extremely special. Kuromaru liking Touta and even being finally confirmed to what was hinted canonically is commendable.

Never read those but I remember people here describing them in a way similar to how I'd describe Rookies, yeah. It's technically sports but the sport itself is a really low focus for the manga, it's just a tool for what's really going on there, unlike something like Jump's sports manga that are basically the sport with a story. I guess that's what I think about when I think about a sports manga. Or at least, I like to make a distinction, since they're completely different types of manga to the point where they should be different genres.

Never stop believing.
I guess I'm not understanding, because it's a baseball manga with the story about the team coming back from being disbanded following a fight. There's an arc involving setting up the team, but after that it's just the games and the team trying to shrug off their negative rep.
I don't know of a different style of sports manga, I assumed they're all like that since everything I've encountered has been. Hmm...
So inspired by the Zelda Joestar thread in Gaming I went to Wiki to check out JoJo's Bizarre Adventure...................and there is apparently about a million volumes already.
Is it hopeless to get started with the manga? Or should I just watch the recent anime series?
One-Punch Man is pretty good by the way. Love the art.

It's possible to read the entire thing, but when I did a few years back there were some super iffy translations, especially Part 4.
Huh. Now that I think about it, there should be two or three new series that started with the 2014 issues. I wonder if there will be another breakout hit this year.

Surprised that there is so much going on and the arms are flaring off. So many wild anima.

I've read the oneshot one by Jin Kobayashi and it was indeed quite funny but I was feeling like I knew the "franchise" well enough already.

Part 1 and 2 are fine
Part 3 has some really shitty scans
Part 4 has been rescanned and rescanlated except for the last 3 volumes
Part 5 and 6 alright from what I remember
Part 7 and 8 have great scanlations
The anime is only part 1 and 2 so far with part 3 announced
I read the manga and didn't regret it one bit. It's awesome.

To be honest, I bounced of the first volumes of JoJo, between the old art and the stilted narrative.
Later, the anime got me in the story in a easier way. It kind of made me notice the cheese factor in a humorous way, instead of a serious way that made me dislike the manga.
Just watch the anime and see if you like it or not.

Naruto 660
So he's getting his fathers half soon enough then.
Wondering if Bee is inside the tail Gyuki cut off.
Bleach 563
lol Star nipples
Mask and James have really been making these last few chapters of Bleach enjoyable.
Will be sad to see them go.
One Piece 733
Only good part was Usopp being cowardly.
Not interested in the Colosseum, Rebecca/her dad, or that cliffhanger.

I tried to read it like one year ago, but I can't quite tell why I stopped reading it.
...Which usually means that there were problems with pacing.

How does it feel to be intellectually unarmed?
Nooooooo!
Please let it have a sequel please! Why do the good manga die, and KNIM continues when it's the same formula every 26 or so chapters?

Posting this here because we read the manga.
But there's been a site update regarding a project for Akame ga Kiru!
http://minatosoft.com/t4p/
Whether its an LN, VN, or an anime adaption is still unknown.

Esdese anything.
Toriko 263 portoguese
Rapid summary of what i've managed to understand...
It seems that all that people showed Toriko all ingredients he discovered and showed him how much those ingredients have enhanced their lives, that made Toriko want to follow his dream again, to become "O Maior Bishokuya do Mundo!!" (best bishokuya of the world).

Was Akame meant to be the heroine of the manga? Because Esdese just obliterates her when it comes to everything.
She even has a prequel manga!
Which, speaking of, I always find the deaths of the girls sad. Even if they had like all of 3 sentences up to that point.
To make her eventual death all the more tragic.
Or to make it all the more ironic when she outlives everyone.

Mob Psycho 8 - 24
Great action. I like the brother kageyama r more though, entertaining and enjoyable plot and his wanting to help mob out and such and even protect him a bit. Hope he continues to get good involvement and actual powers.

Dia Game 4 and 5
Yes the pairing I wanted ended up being canon and Kuro managed to find a way to stay with him in the end. Liked this manga quite a bit though these scenes could have had more action. Hopefully the extras deliver that content.
Hime Doll! 10-14
Finally Oomori gets some panel time but why so short, he was my favorite from the start and the most interesting, even if it was cooking based.
lot of the events just resolve way too fast, could see that many would have been full chapters but I guess the notice that it was ending at chp 16 had already been passed on to the writer at this point in time.

Random question: When was the last time a manga chapter/ending has made you salty as fuck with zero fucks given?

Mx0. Simply because I was surprised that it ended when it was actually pretty good as shonens go.
Zennou no Noa - The World of Lost Memories. It was a pretty good series up until the ending.
