Doron

I was expecting more fireworks in the last couple chapters of Chainsaw Man... it's still interesting but kind of a letdown. Gimme more action. (Looks like that's where the next chapter is heading!)

If one wanted to read Dr. Stone starting from where the Stone Wars anime ended in the winter, then what chapter would one start at..?

Seriously I’m super curious to see what comes next in 228!

Pretty solid new chapters of Ayashimon and Doron Dororon this week. I had started losing interest a bit in both, but these chapters renewed my interest. Sakamoto Days was OK too I guess, but I’m not super into the whole entrance exam angle. It’s been done enough times… I did like last few panels though. Nice pen!

I was thinking about going on Reddit today to read all the overreactions but thought better of it

Dr. Stone

I never would have seen that no matter how long I stared that panel

Yes, hooray for a new DB Super chapter!

So many new chapters today!! Fabricant 100 Tenmaku Cinema Gokurakugai Everything else was solid, just don't really have anything specific to comment on them...

Yeah, that's why I took a break after Stardust Crusaders too. Needed a break after binging the previous parts. I am really enjoying Diamond is Unbreakable now after having taken a break from JJBA. It feels fresher again.

Yeah, they've still been good chapters, I'm probably being a bit too critical in my comments about the recent chapters... but I still do want more action and crazy shit to start happening re: Elusive Samurai: I think it's been easier to keep track of who's who by staying current with new chapters every week. If I let it simmer for a few weeks and then tried to catch up, I'd probably feel a bit lost too. There is a lot going on. But I think a good chunk of these newly introduced characters (sometimes killed off shortly thereafter!) aren't super duper important anyhow I also agree re: Ichinose Family. It's getting back into a better groove again IMO. I finished my re-read of YuYu Hakusho yesterday. Those last few chapters are bittersweet. Togashi really seemed to struggle with finding a good way to end it. The final arc is a bit of a mess, and the last 2-3 chapters are quite the hodge podge. But I still loved it. I kind of want to go back to chapter #1 and re-read it all over again This one is on my personal Mt. Rushmore of manga. Truly one of my favs.

Also really been enjoying Kagurabachi. It's only up to 31 chapters so far. Still relatively quick and easy to get caught up on.

Chainsaw Man #163

I decided to start up on Undead Unluck last night. I only made it through the first chapter before I got sleepy. Pretty kooky. Seems like it will be fun. I wonder how many weeks it will take for me to get caught up 200+ chapters!

This week's new Chainsaw Man chapter was a good one. Hopefully we get back to more excitement soon and Denji gets his groove back. Feels like something big is about to happen.

I’m not familiar with that channel but I’ll give the video a watch later. I’ve only read two of the new chapters from this weekend so far. The latest Elusive Samurai chapter had a bit of an epic feel to it. Big things are about to happen! The fight going on in Sakamoto Days continues to be pretty good too. Gonna read everything else today. There was also a new series dropped yesterday—Super Smartphone. Not a super inspired name But the description sounds like it could be interesting: Kyu solves crimes when he finds a phone that can search for anything in existence, but can he use it to find his missing brother? I’ll give it a try.

Dr. Stone - Finished chapter 100 yesterday. I am very curious about "Why-man" and what they are going to encounter on the Treasure Island. I hope the next story arc is fun. When reading this, I'm trying to turn off the part of my brain that takes exception with Dr. Stone, because it is a comic after all... I think what irks me is there is all this science talk, like there is a realistic, scientific basis for all of the stuff Senku does, but at the same time some things seem so incredibly unrealistic. It's a bit of a disconnect. The science stuff can be interesting and all, but I think I'd rather get rid of that element and just make it unrealistic and fantastical. In any case, I guess I'll enjoy it more if I overlook the science-y stuff I also started reading the DB Super manga last night on a lark. I think I started at chapter 42, somewhere around there, I looked it up on a wiki. After the tournament with all of the other universes (the manga just glosses over the Broly movie). Goku and Vegeta are joining the Galactic Patrol. Might be fun! I don't know if/when more anime is planned... so I'll just take in the manga and be happy with that.

Dr. Stone #223

Akane-banashi I am happy to read that Earthchild is over. Phew. I’ll read that chapter later. I’m pretty pumped for the next chapter of PPPPPP ! What is Sorachika’s playing going to be like?

DB Super #78 - Another solid chapter. This arc has been constantly very good IMO. Dr. Stone #219 Ayashimon #2 — Not as good as the first chapter, but also not terrible. I’ll keep reading I don’t have any spoiler-y comments for PPPPPP but I am still enjoying it. Gotta wait another week for more Elusive Samurai

I blitzed through the hockey manga (Dogsred) last night. It is a hit in my books! It's honestly been a long time since I considered myself a hockey fan, but I still have a soft spot for it at times. This is perfect. Outside of the hockey stuff, you can kind of sum it up as a fish-out-of-water story (at least to begin with). The main character is a talented figure skater who, for {reasons} finds himself up in Hokkaido, estranged from figure skating (but still loves skating) and then all the sudden he gets roped into playing a game of hockey. It really takes off quick. I didn't want to put it down. And the "edutainment" portion of it about hockey and skating in general seems pretty on point so far. I like it I also finished off JJBA Part 5: Golden Wind yesterday. It had a very strong finish and might have jumped up to #2 in my rankings of the JJBA I've read so far (with Diamond is Unbreakable as the clear #1). The final showdown with the bad guy gets confusing at times because of the crazy stand abilities involved, but the author takes care to remind pretty frequently exactly what's what. My one complaint about Golden Wind is probably the awkward stand names in the version of the manga serialized in Jump, but I'm assuming that's like a copyright/legal problem and not a bad localization. Most of the stands are named after bands and they were probably going to have issues with those bands (or their management, record companies, etc). But when you know what the name is supposed to be (e.g. Sex Pistols) and then they keep calling it something else (in this case, Six Bullets) it just hits a bit different. A few of the "other" names work well though (e.g. King Crimson was a great name choice, but Emperor Crimson is a pretty cool alternative). Part 6: Stone Ocean is still being serialized in Jump... looks like they're about 2/3 of the way through. So I will start reading that soon and eventually get current on it. I am looking forward to the change of scenery away from Italy in Stone Ocean, and to the return of Jotaro in some capacity.

Good weird or bad weird? Or just weird weird..?

You guys check out the new series this week? (Kagurabachi) I thought the first chapter was pretty rad.
