Manga |OT|: No matter how I look at it, it's discord's fault we're not popular
- Thread starter dramazen

honestly, it's all the more frustrating because the current arc is ludicrously dense, so it's easy to lose track of things even without a hiatus. Also the current arc feels largely unnecessary and kind of feels like it's getting in the way of the stuff we were really looking forward (even the parts that are interesting like the spider's involvement didn't really need the prince stuff to happen in the first place)
Bakemonogatari 1-2 by Oh! Great
The art seems okay, and the dialogue you'd definitely be better off with the anime or novels. The character designs are odd to say the least, as in not 1-to-1 to either the anime or Vofan illustrations. Meme is kinda freaking me out. It could be worse though -

Apparently it's only skipping one issue (according to the HxH thread) so I'm not sure what this means for the bet.

Well, let's see what happens. If it's more than one we'll see who wins.
It always starts with "just one" and then 8 months went by.
Tonari no Kyuuketsuki-san 10
They have the internet on computers now. Humans or vampires, at the end of the day they're both the same underneath, i.e. cute girls. I too like to give the skulls of my enemies as moving-in gifts.

The new guard all in the top and BLack Clover still consistent. Anime has not turned people off the series.
Will keep fervently praying for jujutsus and zigas continuing success.
Karasuno v nekoma could have a cool Battle of the Trash Heap color page.
How Many Light-Years to Babylon? ch6-7
Well, guess he found a new perspective to achieve his goal. Or should it be she?
New Game! ch73
The biggest takeaway from this is that Aoba should take more days off.
Tonari no Kyuuketsuki-san ch10
Vampires are so last century nowadays.
High Score Girl ch46
Making choices is tough. Guess he'll have to make his decision now.
Murenase! Shiiton Gakuen ch43-44.5
RIP Miyubi. She had a good death at the end.
Good thing humans are in heat all year long instead of periodically!
One-Punch Man ch89
The quiet before the storm, hopefully. A hundred pages of not much action.
Henjo - Hen na Joshi Kousei Amaguri Chiko ch28
A totally normal girl talk for once, if slightly too focused on penises.

How many chapters has it gone?
Apologies i haven't been paying attention
I guess one of Minerva's allies will be the one who helps Norman to escape.
Wondering how Emma will defeat Lewis tho, maybe if she joins with Ray they'll be able to defeat him? although it'd be very difficult to do so.
I hope the Seven Walls are not a rip-off from Shingeki no Kyojin with special demons inside of the walls D:

The power of of being talked about on a tv show in JPN, better than an anime boost.
It'll be the tenth chapter this week if I'm not mistaken.
It also has to be good to keep the audience, so it must be doing something right.
this is from an excel file that was shared to me.

I just love the reaction faces in this manga. Kohaku not caring about the shield that was passed on to her and her fathers face was priceless. I really like that Chrome continues to show his potential for science, I just hope it doesn't end up costing him his life in the coming war.
Boku no Hero Academia 177
I wasn't too fond of Gentle at first but with each passing chapter I'm warming up to him and what great use of his quirk. Deku though, man, holding a girder in one hand and flicking an air blast with the other.
One Piece 900
That cliffhanger. RIP Strawhats.

How do we define hiatus ? 3 missing chapters in a row or more ?

Shimanami Tasogare 20
This should be the last chapter for a while, given translators only do volumes and it's changing magazine... I guess the manga survived given it ended with a cliffhanger?
The tast chapters felt a bit rushed too, hopefully the new magazine will bring in some stability.

Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon ch67
Picking a side can be tricky, especially when there's no particular good option.
Please don't bully me, Nagatoro ch8.2
On the bright side, he gained a better appreciation for her assets.
One Piece ch900
And the 900th chapter ends with one hell of a bang.
Shuukan Shounen Hachi ch9
Welp, already a serious contender for best character in the series. I wonder if her presence in the E class is due to her flighty personality rather than her ability.
He's not wrong, y'know.
Aho Girl ch113
Pok■mon Go is serious business, especially when you don't even know how to use smartphones.
My Hero Academia ch177
I gotta admit, I didn't expect Deku to get this outplayed considering he just got an upgrade. Gentle's quirk is really versatile.

One Piece ch. 900
Man, the whole song bit leading into that cliffhanger was really cool. Big Mom's expressions, the cemetery in her mouth - everything, actually. Great chapter.
How Many Light-Years to Babylon? ch. 6-7
Sixth chapter is honestly kind of w/e, but the seventh is vintage ass Dowman Sayman.

One Piece Part of me is thinking Sanji's cake is so good it caused an alignment change in Big Mom.
Boku no Hero i'm enjoying this fight way more than any of Deku's fights this last big arc. Maybe its cause I'm a grumpy pants, but I hope Gentle ruins that culture festival.
Black Clover Fire Lion is so god damn fucking cool! I know the chances are slim, but I really hope she just straight up wrecks all their shit!

Where did you find this chapter? I don't see it on my regular sites.
Ah fuck me for not even thinking of something so basic, was totally absorbed in the last pages though. I could totally see it going in that direction, I found Big Mom's reaction a little underwhelming but apart from that not much goes for this theory.
I hope some fanatics will be able to spot some tiny things to support this though.
Fact is, I just reread the chapter having your theory in mind but didn't spot any conclusive evidence.
Apart from that, I really love the staging of the last pages : the contrast between happy big mom and the carnage taking place, with just her song over the pages, awesome.
Reminded me of "Kanmei's singing introduction" in Kingdom in a way.
Hunter X Hunter 900
Saw some of you talking about a one week break and know I'm getting my hopes up unwillingly. The downfall will only hurt more next week, THANKS !
That said, what a chapter this week again. Not much to say, every page's more filled with implications that the previous one.
This cruise is already quite something but considering the momentum gained each week, the next chapters will be... Oh boy.
This is a PM question, fyi. You'll find it if you Google though.

Best beach trip. Hina was actually useful.
Lies of the Sheriff Evans 46
Well, Ted is the luckiest person on town. Evans continues to get his priorities mixed up.
Go-Toubun no Hanayome 31
Dat first girl power. Too bad for the others.
Shimanami Tasogare 20
This ended better than i thought.
Damn, was this almost cancelled? Thank manga gods.
My Hero Academia 177
It seems Gentle is the appropriate person to train Deku.

The magazine it was published died. Luckily it seems the author managed to find another one willing to host it.
Shinobu Ohtaka (Magi's author) is going to publish a new manga in Shounen Magazine this month. She changed Shogakukan for Kodansha.
Despite being a kind of "filler arc" between 2 bigger ones, the current Culture Festival arc in My Hero Academia is the most fun I've had with the series in a while. The premise is already overused, the execution was average and both the villain and the character to rescue had been introduced just a little while before. It kind of felt like the author has ran out of the material he had when he started the series.
This feels quite fresh, however. Despite being a kind of no-stakes arc in the great scheme of things, Deku is actually invested in the conflict here for various reasons. First, the failure of the culture festival will suspend all the "student-like" activities in UA for a while. Second, Deku is invested in seeing the festival succeed because of Eri (was it Eri? I'm awful with names lol). He is showing some courage and resolve here, and the most visually striking attack in his moveset is back.
It's going to sound weird, but MHA should learn a bit from Shokugeki no Soma. It's much better at mixing it's "battling" with slice of life segments and character development, at least up to the end of the second anime season. Seeing its success, I just hope next season reduces the fanservicy foodgasms further, it could be a nice source of humor if used well instead.
And Gintama keeping being weird as usual, but I love it for it. There was quite a bit of fighting, but the comedy hit in the right spots too. The Live Action references always make me chuckle and the One Piece reference (although used before) was entertaining too. The Kanna twist was something I actually expected.
But I still can't figure out what Takasugi is actually planning either. Seems like both him and Gintoki are unable to actually move on from the events of the last two arcs. I wonder if Takasugi is trying to use the Tendonshu to try to bring him back, or something along those lines. Utsuro last words sure hit him hard.
Matako has grown on me quite a bit in the last few arcs too. I like how she is kind of shown as the last straw of humanity in Takasugi, even if he hasn't really shown any kind of romantic feelings towards her.
And it's been stated that Tokyo Ghoul: re is in its final arc, but I can't help but wonder if there is going to be a third series, that starts a few months after the aftermath of the current events, and is devoted to close the remaining plot threads and give a proper closure to the series. I don't think it'd be possible to properly finish it in 20 chapters.
Oda likes to have big stuff reserved for X00 chapters. Chapter 800 was the chapter were the Strawhat fleet was formed. Wonder if we may get a flash back next week. Overall, this arc has been really good too. Much more focused than Dressrosa, which was good but a bit too long. I don't really care all that much about Sanji, but Jinbei joined the crew, seeing Luffy struggle again in a fight was good, Jinbei joined the crew and Brook vs Big Mom double page was amazing. My opinion about him did a complete 180 in this arc, and for the better.
I just hope next arc doesn't have the crew spliting up.
Was Magi actually interesting from beginning to end? I was planning to watch it once it ended, since I don't really like following too many series at once.

No, it changed from a fun Arabian nights adventure manga to full on battle manga.
Most of it after the Magnostadt arc is not worth it.
I thought the losers were meant to be punished, not rewarded?
Some nice licenses there.
I love Radiant. It's got really good art and the story, while standard, it's still fun ( for me).
Ao Haru Ride is great. I love Love, Be Loved, Leave, Be Left by Sakisaka Io more though.
Ran and the Gray World is beautiful and interesting.

I liked the yakuza arc and defend it a lot in the MHA OT but even then I agree that this arc is the most fun in a while, I would go as far to say this is the most fun I have ever had reading this manga. The villains are fun, it has a lot of interactions between the members of the class and it still keeps its high stakes because of how important it is for everyone to not have the festival interrupted. It also has a lot of Mina, that is a huge +.
