This why I like the manga, haha. It is just a shonen power fantasy. I was kind of off put by the scouters and power levels, but then realized I'm reading this for cool looking action scenes and over the top fights. This a manga that is strictly style over substance.
They randomly luck on interesting plot lines (Ban/Ellen intro story), which is nice when it happens.
If you dig consistently nice art and off the hook actions scenes with straight stupid in-between, this is the manga for you!
*Everything MetroidPrimeRib said is 100% accurate.

I didn't really like the action scenes much, but I don't think they are particularly great in a lot of shonen manga. JoJo, One Punch Man and HxH have good fights imo, they flow well.

I just realized I've not been keeping up on the manga I've been following since E3 week (and DMC4SE afterwards). Fucking got some catching up to do.

A girl agrees to take the place of another girl who's been sent off to be married off. There, her new life begins.
I like the lead. She's definitely the different kind of female lead, headstrong and willing to help others at the cost of herself. Looking forward to see where this romance will go.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Seven Deadly Sins jumped the shark and is now just plain stupid.
It's a fine-line to walk when your MC is so ridiculously OP, but the first few arcs nailed it.
However, around the time of Arthur + the Great Holy Knights, things just devolved into Fairy Tale.
Ugh.

seven deadly sins was fun for a while but man that battle with Hendrickson (i think that's who it was) that dragged on forever really killed my interest in the series
didn't help that i peeked into one of the later chapters and the dialogue was about literal power levels sooooo yeah i'm kinda done with it
at least it had some ballin' artwork tho

I just got something for you:
[No title?] by Ray-Kbys
From the artist of Love at First Sight, a series of pictures with text that stars a somewhat shy yandere girl. It's rather straightforward (and tame) as far as story goes, but since it's not all that bloody, it's a pleasantly cute and sweet read. The art in particular is very nice, and depicts the tone and expressions pretty well. Hope there'll be more of it in the future.
Now try to find it~
Look who's back from the grave!

I agree as well. They're not smart/intellectual battles, just flashy.

That went too long and then the power levels being introduced and staying for more than one chapter or so has made it a skim and read only the king ban chapters affair. The Meliodas clone is the only exciting thing about the new baddies but otherwise, it has just become substandard fantasy.

Its really bizarre to me that Hiro Mashima can draw so many pages per year without actually having anything happen in his series

Well obviously one of the main reasons he can draw insane amounts weekly is because he spends almost no time actually planning or really working in general on the story LOL

OK, so some late night reading got me caught up on:
Nukoduke! - Still cute as hell.
Minamoto-kun Monogatari - Hoping for more sabotage from the Yandere teacher
Love Tyrant - Play went as well as it could've given the nutcases involved
Himouto! Umaru-chan - Memories are indeed precious things.
Ana Satsujin - RIP Sakaki you sick motherfucker
T-Rex na Kanojo - Nowol's a shit.
Prison School - Gakuto's the best bro anyone could have.
And I started reading two new things as well~
Tomo-chan ha Onna no ko! 1-20
Dense does not even begin to describe Jun. Poor Tomo.
Kobayashi-san chi no Maid Dragon 1-6
Seriously, who wouldn't want a dragon as a servant?
Too bad I'm still shit at reading moonrunes. Can only assume the guy that she's after understands her clearly and is not fucking things up.

Found it. It's amazing what typing an author's name into google will get you.

Nanatsu started off incredibly generic, got interesting, and then looped all the way back to generic again. It'd be misleading to say it's another Fairy Tail though, considering it follows something that resembles a plot.
I see you're following my footsteps well~
Well, you pretty much got the jist of it.

Dark-sta's line was so good, he may not have magic power but he has his friends *epic slash*. Though I like the one he did defending Noelle better.

Even if they do this killing game, they will have to kill each other at some point. Cant believe the best friend will probably be killed too.

This has actually gotten kinda compelling lately.
I've pretty much always treated this as that dumb shounen series with cool action, good art, and often borders on porn. But I'm actually pretty interested to see where the story goes and I appreciate a protagonist that's swiftly willing to move forward even after his mom basically killed* his two closest companions.
*even tho they're totally coming back somehow eventually

District Hakkenshi [Code T-8] Episode 80
This can not be the ending can it? It was the best manga in mangabox and one I looked foward to every Thursday. Oh well it did give Shino his best lines possible.
Shino is one of the best characters in these type of Hakkenshi stories. The normal high schooler thrown into a world changing demon apocalypse though realizing that he was on the wrong side was such a wild ride for these past two years or so. All his friends too and their witty silly antics. I love fantasy stories set in present day. Ill miss it. 10/10.

its a really great manga for various reasons.
those reasons are lewd.
but also interesting premise of spirit objects and japanese lore.
but also cause the author takes great care in attention to detail, and even better care in portraying human anatomy. both the lewd and non-lewd.
you should check out his pixiv.
caution, it's extra lewd.
oh yeah his artwork is great. definitely one of the better ones in recent memory.
totally recommend anyone here to check out his youtube channel as well for some sweet art process videos.
