Just read the Dr. Stone special, and it looks like we're getting a continuation!

Ichinose is in a good groove right now. It feels like we don't get a lot with only so many pages per chapter, but there's been a hook and push over the last few chapters that has me hyped for whatever comes next. Last 3 chapters of Elusive Samurai have been good, too Chainsaw Man still has me hooked into the characters and what's gonna happen, but cutting things down to 15-17 pages a chapter has made a few chapters feel like they're lacking and like I don't get enough. I enjoy the smaller moments with the characters before all the brutal action, but it just feels like not enough character stuff is really happening either. Akane-banashi #52 I also really dug the new Show-ha Shoten. The wait is never short enough for the next chapter.

Dr. Stone

Oh damn, I didn't realize PPPPPP ended! I went and caught up on the last two chapters immediately. Definitely a bummer. I wonder what happened there. It felt like it was ramping up and hit a peak with the 4-on-4 battle, then it just kind of meandered for a few chapters before ending. I don't think it's unlikely it was a somewhat planned ending since his mom died during all that, but it feels like some of those last few chapters were wasted, and we probably could have just done the Dada backstory and then this chapter.

Elusive Samurai 73
-
All the praise for the art on Akane-banashi goes double for Sakamoto Days. Holy shit, those chapters went hard. All the Takamura panels were wild.
-
Yeah, that's why I'm fine with the bi-weekly manga and letting them get some of those weeks off. In the case of Spy x Family, the quality is always worth the wait and I'd rather the writer stay healthy and happy to keep it going as long as they'd like then see them burn out trying to churn out a chapter every week
-
Ok, that does sound pretty interesting. I'll probably give the next few chapters a whirl some time soon in that case.
-
i tell c is definitely short enough right now that I'd recommend giving it a shot until you're current to make a decision. I still have a chapter or two to catch up on that I may read on this train. Spy x Family may be my favorite manga running right now. The plot is heavily fueled by character development, and the whole thing is endearing as heck. I actually just started reading lately and the catch up was a breeze because I just kept wanting to read more.

I thought it was a fine ending. I had decided a long time ago that pretty much no ending was going to be satisfactory. Either he gives an ending that's curbs expectations and is dumb because of how shocking/out of character it is, or he goes with something sort of safe and expected and people get disappointed it didn't happen exactly how they imagined.

Dr. Stone #220 Ayashimon Liking all the other stuff, too, though I don't have much to say about it in particular. The most recent PPPPPP chapter was another misstep in pacing/framing(I forgot who Masashi even was until going back), but the drama and development unfolding between Lucky and Reijiro is really compelling.
-
Yeah, it's resonated a bit more to where I at least understand what's SUPPOSED to be funny. And it's funny enough when. It focused on the comedy, so that helps. Also, the comedy buff chick who's helping them always has this seductive look in her eyes and it does things to me

I think I might go ahead and open up the first chapter of Tokyo Ghoul to remind myself to read it some time soon.

Some really great stuff this week(with a couple manga that I had to catch up from last week, too). Akane-banashi really paying off the brief lull. Elusive Samurai with a signature moment and a gorgeous 2-page panel. Undead Unluck has been really fun with the most recent arc. Ichinose Family really digging into the meat. Even Fabricant 100 had a good pair of chapters these last two weeks after being kind of ok after the first chapter. Just gotta catch up on the last two Sakamoto chapters. I've also been reading Jiangshi X. It's fine. Kinda basic demon Shonen stuff, but this last chapter had some cool art. Not sure I'm gonna cling to this one. I wonder how Cipher Academy has been doing lol.
-
I've only read the first chapter so far, but Gokurakugai has potential. The art is really well done and has oodles of personality.
-
Did you ever read Chainsaw Man? It's a big recommend if you haven't. That said, with the anime coming out this year, it might be better to just wait for that. I have a feeling the anime could do some of the action panels more justice than the manga did. It's one of those manga where the black-and-white pallette doesn't always serve the details well.

Sakamoto Days
-
Whoa. Was NOT expecting the end of the recent Sakamoto chapter!
-
I haven't checked it out yet. Might try to read it today, as I'm pretty much caught up on everything else now. I started Neru: Way of the Martial Artist. I really dig it
-
That's interesting because I was fully bought in to Battle Tendency. I binged through it hard and didn't feel the drag. Odds are you'll probably like Stardust Crusaders more in that sense. It arguably drags toward the middle as far as how long it goes, but the action that happens is probably more engaging. PPPPPP #59 was a heartbreaker I also caught up through Chapter 83 of Elusive Samurai I checked out that Ichigoki's In Control debut, and I think it's the sort of quirky concept that's destined for cancellation. But it was interesting enough that I'll give it a couple chapters before I make a full judgment. Ichinose Family still got me hooked. It's a really engaging twist on the amnesiac protagonist. So far we're just getting glimpses into his past life, but I'm really curious what happens when they start bringing the rest of the family back into it.

I actually read through Death Note for the first time about a year ago. I had already watched the anime multiple times, but never read the manga. I definitely think the manga adaptation is more successful and less corny. Does a lot to get us deeper in L's head as well as fleshes out some encounters better. I dunno, I'm still a huge fan of it up until the second half, especially the manga version. That said, I think the manga is also much more successful at telling the second half and I found it more engaging. When I re-watched the anime after for comparison, the second half feels so rushed and forced in comparison, with no reason to get attached to the new characters they bring in.

The anticipation for the rest of her performance is intense Also, finally caught up on Earthchild. Shit's fucking insane and like...I'm here for the ride, regardless of how long it is.

Dr. Stone #216 PPPPPP #7

Man, I almost wonder if I need to just reread Elusive Samurai. Pretty much everything since the big plot shift has included a lot of characters I either barely remember or legit have no clue who they are. There are so many characters introduced up to this point that you sometimes only see in one or two chapters at the time or didn't do much of significance, and some of the moments where the cast seems to strongly remember someone is at odds with me completely not remembering them. It doesn't help that there are also characters like the Hisashiban who were all introduced at once and then mostly dead within a span of like 10 chapters. It's killed some of the narrative tension for me.
