Spring had lots of nice releases, everything is just stacked on the floor causing moving soon, I need to invest in bookshelves once I get to OH.
Batuque ch. 1-12
Just found out about this one, and so far it gets a recommendation from me. A fight epic about Capoeira, early on it starts with a lot of intrigue and real history lessons on Afro-Brazilian culture. Protagonist is a Japanese high school girl but isn't portrayed like a typical one. 10 chapters in and she's already given up the skirt for long pants.

When it said Amamiya was caught up in the explosion...I was like nooooo.
Good chapter

Witch Watch 19
Nice chapter, but I wish he wasn't going back to just repeat Sket-Dan, except now, just with a Witch running the help anyone with an errand club thing.
Nine Dragon's Ball Parade 18
Hibuse is so epic...looking forward to how he gets taken down. Without him Benikoma may be nothing to write home about.
Magu Chan 48
Naputaaku getting the father's approval and then beaming was the best.

I was wondering when Stain would pop back up again, though had been expecting him to be clearing out his share of villains too. Punished Deku looking badass while taking out the trash but I do miss the old kid.
Dr. Stone 201
Hopefully Chrome doesn't fall back now Xeno is taking charge of a lot of the science, seems he'll maybe be getting a rival in Suika or at least I hope she gets the push up now she's older. A lot happened this chapter and Euro trip ahoy!

Cop and Dolphin 47 END
Surfing Samejima is cool.
Series kicked off once it got into the cult arc, honestly should have been that from the start. Can remembering nothing about the beginning at all.
Wanted to see a few more faces in this 10years later though, like Murofushi.

Boy's Abyss 31-57 (Current)
Every single one of these characters would fit right into a Silent Hill game.
I saw this panel posted elsewhere a few months ago, it convinced me I had to read it sometime
Candy Flurry 9
Okay the extending stick was amazing.
BLue Box 10
Laughed so much from that whole scene before the pressure point.
TaikiHaryu scenes are the best though.

A very sweet chapter, and kind of a downer for Father's Day. Magu tries so hard.
Sakamoto Days 28
"20 minutes? I only need five" Hell yeah.

called it XD. Also nice chill chapter, this series is good at mixing the laidback inbetween major arcs. It's one of those were an anime with extra hijinks filler would fit nicely because you can just have fun wi the the cast between major plot arcs

CAN WE JUST SKIP TO THE MOON PLEASE, Speculating about why-man and the medusa's is driving me crazy. Its so gripping.

Yeah, the last page was screaming Sket Dance 2.0. I really enjoyed it, but I still hope Witch Watch goes in a different direction
The Elusive Samurai 21
Really feels like this series is starting to hit its stride where all the characters have had a moment or two and I can appreciate them now. I've wanted these two retainers to have focus and I'm so glad we got that here. The "demons in hell" line was soooooo good

Yeah it wrapped up fine. I wish it was a little more serious instead of the original idea of "squid-man emerges from the sea, hillariously causes crime, it's time for the hard-boiled cop and his partner a dolphin-man, to take him out to sea!" It really hit its stride once they were heading underwater to fight the cultists, making only 2 huge arcs in the series: sea monster-man of the day causing crime, and the battle underwater with the sea cult.
Yeah feels like this could develop into something good driven a bit more time. Also the tease that the candy powers aren't unique was fun and makes sense: candies have tons of varieties for each type
I think the writer knows its ending, which is why I think Nine Dragons turned out like this.
Guessing it and I Tell C will be gone in 8-12 weeks.
Yeah, that's probably the case. Speaking of done series, do we already know what's substituting Shark and dolphin?
Candy Flurry still pretty boring tbh. I just feel nothing reading it, reminds me of Phantom Seer in that way
Good week for everything else, though. Witch Watch and Magu-chan brought it with some sweet father's day chapters, Mashle continues to be fun with those absurd shenanigans, and Elusive Samurai is doing right by its side characters, which is good to see.

Candy Flurry has really picked up since the exam started, yeah. I loved her just fucking roasting the popcorn guy. That was great.
"I don't want to hear that from somebody with that shirt" fucking slayed me.
Still, best thing in Jump this week was either Blue Box or MHA. I really adore how... idk how to put it, I guess restrained Blue Box is? It's just so sweet and measured. I feel like with a lot of other series, everything is so over the top that it just sort of fades into a raucous noise like some really terrible DJ mix. Blue Box keeps itself focused, but still with plenty of humor and heart.
MHA is just on this whole other level artwise compared to everything else in the magazine aside from maybe some of the monthlies, but honestly... just outrageous how good Horikoshi is lately. Plot is moving in interesting ways too.

I refuse to believe the author isn't giggling through every page he draws.
Trash. We never said it wasn't, but damn, it's like watching a telenovela with how everything keeps escalating.
I'm actually a bit disappointed that
the mom didn't actively try to seduce her son more when they agreed to commit suicide together. Like having the mc actually sleep with his mom after agreeing to die together would have been the perfect level of depravity and fucked up content to keep things escalating.
I'd like to think the author knows not to cross THAT line. I hope...
That or there's actual rules against that or the editor jumped in. It's in the same magazine, Young Jump, as Kaguya-sama after all. This is the manga that made me realize that the "4 pages of sex is allowed in Young Jump" joke in Kaguya is actually super real.
This mangaka? Editor/rules must have happened, considering
by all accounts the mother is probably the biggest villain in the story
It is in character, I don't disagree. That would just be a step too far for me personally. Would turn it from "trash but fun trash" to "oh god, I want to throw up".
Shit was hilarious, honestly when was the last time a protagonist just straight up roasted an enemy's outfit lmao
Not THE protagonist, but Reigen had things to say about some shoulder pads in Mob Psycho 100
Candy Flurry is a mediocre series, it's attempts at comedy are terrible, and it's action while decent really doesn't do enough with it's candy premise.
I think the problem is, can this new character and this finished fight, really save the series in the long run.
Even I Tell C had an occasional good chapter.

I don't mind Candy Flurry but it's clearly taking its time when I'm not totally sure it can afford to. Folks clearly just don't have the patience they used to have, y'know? I think the days of being able to wait years to introduce your Big Bad are long gone.
