To expand this back into general Jump territory before Buranchi gets here, for the established manga I'm casually reading:

HeroAca's been the best it's been in a long time. Definitely since Pro Hero, arguably since AM v AFO. Buildup was a bit iffy, to be completely honest, but the payoff's been really nice so far. I'm really intrigued.
We Never Learn made a worse alternate route than Uruka's, but best girl's arc begins and I hope Tsutsui doesn't fuck this one up. The finale of Rizu's ending was nice, though.
Yuuna's heading towards the end. If this can't change the status quo of the series, then I don't think anything will. I hope it does. I want my harem end/progress, damnit.

Need to read Chainsaw Man, since everyone keeps fucking talking about it going bonkers, and it has me interested.

Little over 2 hours remain till new chaps.

Good to see Act-Age adding a million after two new volumes and some reprints. Hope to see it grown even more, especially when the anime happens.

i know its a hopeless question but do you guys think HunterxHunter will return in 2020?
Nope

People dropped the manga?
I did ever since the Villain Arc (which, funnily enough, I did enjoy), now I only watch the anime sporadically.
My enjoyment of this manga varies too much, there are moments I roll my eyes, moments I get bored yet there are moments I do want to know whats going to happen, I personally lose interest if its not consistently entertaining me
As for the latest arc, it throws a salve into the biggest wound MHA has that its a lack of "steakes", even then, it only fixes it so much as its acceptable for a shonen manga with a huge relevant cast. That being said, I will take a peek into it to see what its about.

MHA: Alright, things are getting even more interesting here. I really wanna see where things go from this point onward. I’m expecting the beginning of a massive shift in the status quo.

WNL: This may jsut be the Fumino fan in me, but that was the best chapter I’ve read in months. Was really invested here. Please do me a favor, Tsutsui, and don’t fuck this up.

TPGW: Hmm... I’m gonna need a minute. It was weird but then it got really intriguing and now I’m not sure what to feel. I think I liked it, though. It’ll depend on what the next chapters entail.

YNY: Huh, this is what I thought the climax would be. I’m guessing the next chapter will show the flashback that lead up to this series of events. I’m betting that important things will happen that will alter the status quo. I have no idea because I just skimmed the Korean raws.

TPGW: For me, it was kinda backwards. It got intriguing, but then got weird with the ending. That was certainly unexpected, but I'm still curious to see where things go from here.

I should elaborate:

It started off a little weird, but the middle was super intriguing, but then it got a little weird again at the end. Not a bad chapter, IMO, but not what I was expecting. I can see some being disappointed here. I really do like the question that this chapter poses, especially as someone who draws and often comes up with little stories myself “What does it mean to be original?” How was Aino able to make something so good if she’s in the same boat as MC?It can’t just be sheer passion and dedication to the craft.

Or maybe I’m thinking too much into it. Either way, I want to know more about Aino now.

Is me or the art of My Hero Academia has been way better than usual in these last chapters? I'd say MHA has the most amazing art right now out current Jump.

My top-3 this week would be 1. MHA, 2. Act-age, 3. I'm stuck between Dr.Stone or Chainsawman

TPN just refuses to end lmao

And Chainsaw Man was, as expected, nothing worth getting in a fuss over. It almost looks tame compared to Yuuna xD

Dunno how to feel about Chapter 3 of TPGW. Overall it was good, but I'm a bit confused. Have to see where this going.

TPGW keeps getting better (for me at least) - Itsuki Aino best girl already. I get that if you're not already liking the characters then you probably won't like the large amount of text in each chapter, but I liked it that way. I like how fluently it feels to me the mood shifts between comedic -> serious -> wholesome scenes as its keeping me engaged throughout the whole chapter (and ofc Date's amazing artstyle). Especially looking forward to seeing how Sasaki and Aino's rivalry/friendship develops, it seems already like a more wholesome version of the rivalry in Bakuman between the MCs and Eiji.

I reread Mashle over the past week in both English and Korean as I didn't really enjoy it as much as I felt I should have on the first go. I must have had a stick up my ass while reading it first round because I'm absolutely loving it at the moment, I feel like I can finally appreciate the light-hearted humor and how it doesn't take itself too seriously. This week's chapter was great, love to see Mash being a boss.

I got SnS vibes from Moriking this week at some point lol. Very cute chapter, still one of my fav newbies.

I agree with TPGW.

Well Yozakura went back to action-comedy this week instead of doing a third in a row plot chapter, don't think it's wrapping up just yet. This week's Moriking was pretty funny, probably my favorite chapter of it so far. Ghostwriter was good, didn't love it but still interested, I want to see how they further develop Aino as a rival character.

I think Yozakura and Mitama are not going to be canceled.
Mitama must have done a troll to think it would be canceled

Yozakura was alright this week, as far as episodic filler chapters go it's done a lot worse, but the chapter didn't really do anything for me.

Mitama was pretty good, the ending makes me wonder if this really is just a big fake out and it's not ending but the rest of the chapter tells me otherwise

Agravity had probably it's best chapter so far, I was laughing the entire time.

Undead was pretty good, not the biggest fan of Victor but it'll hopefully be explained in due time. Meteor shower was cool

Mashle was alright, I'm glad he didn't give a total gag about being asked about his motivations, but nothing else really did much for me in this chapter.

Guardian was boring, probably won't get U19'd but I'd be surprised if it went over 25 chapters

Moriking was pretty good, got some laughs and I'm glad to see the sister starting to develop a little more

Bone Collection was alright, didn't really care for the twist with the high ranking exorcist, but everything else was fine enough

Ghost Writer was good, I liked the first half of the chapter, but not sure how I feel about the rest

HQ, Dr Stone, and AA were great this week. TPN hopefully will end soon, I suppose this little bit is an homage to the hide and seek from the first arc, but I just want it to be over already.
