Does anybody else feels like this trial chapters of Mashle have been extremely similar to Kimetsu's introduction of the hashiras? Their quirky behavior and name drop things already felt similar last week and today we even got

the elder tutor-figure and the cool and quite "hashira" advocating for the protagonist

Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but Mashle’s editor was Kimetsu’s last one. So I wouldn’t be surprised if they were suggestions from him.

if the dude starts moon walking in the next 10 chapters I know who to blame

according to this, Kimetsu's editor

No break Next Week for One Piece

Feels like Moriking could be ending the issue after WNL, it's definitely set up now as if it's only got a few chapters left. Agravity Boys however is clearly in no immediate rush. My guess for the next few issues is

CSM ending in #2
WNL ending in #3/4
Moriking ending in #5/6
possibly Blood Oath ending in #7 or #8 if its first volume is out by then
then a batch of 2-3 new series starting #7 or maybe #8 or #9 if they spend a couple extra issues celebrating One Piece hitting 1000 chapters before letting new series take the spotlight.

Yeah, we only have 4 ID so is possible that some series are ending after that.
How many battle are left in Moriking? 1 or 2? If there are 2 it could end easily in 5 chapter if there are a 2 chapter final boss + Post Battle + Epilogue.

No break Next Week for One Piece

Spoiler: Pic from Chap.998

Aside from the fact that it was just on break last week, we already know chapter 1000 is on 5-6 which already confirms there's no scheduled break until then...

 

[Franz]

So for double issue 3-4 there should be no breaks of any manga right?

Maybe My Hero Academia, maybe Black Clover. We don't know. But for sure MHA or Black Clover getting break on next issue would be more interesting than the weekly "One Piece isn't getting break!" when we 100% already knew it isn't getting break.

 

[RafGL]

And it seems Mashle is now licensed in France by Kazé. Thinking it was about time considering how quickly it has been licensed in other countries and how they even have Yozakura Family. Now's just time to wait for Undead Unluck to be announced, guess it's not as appealing for overseas.

Suddenly Sakamoto vomic.

Spoiler

Isn't that pretty early for a vomic?

BUILD KING had a vomic last week. It appears all newbies will get one, at least for a while.

But if one of the two went on hiatus, he would not appear in the group cover ....

Hi, does anyone know who the artist below is? I heard it’s from one of Horikoshi’s assistants. Get the feeling the artist might be someone to keep an eye on.

 

[101nemesis]

Yeah. I'm thoroughly enjoying Build King. It's been a while since we had a series with such a big adventurous feel to it. Shimabu is a natural at this.

Sakamoto Days was funny but the chapter was not as exciting as the first two. But it's still a great read. My one criticism is how similar the female characters look to each other.

JJK is probably my favorite right now with this fight and the choreography.

Mashle is also getting really interesting as well. The actual end goal is being more flushed out.

MHA needs to end this arc soon. This final fight has dragged on for too long. But nice to see this certain character back. He's my favorite from the series.

 

[NeeNeen]

MHA: That was rather hard to follow. But I liked the Endeavor part.

Mashle: I'm glad the headmaster got involved, but I kinda feel like we've had this discussion before.

BC: Good to see they're motivated. And they have a real plan! Nice!

Sakamoto: So the old guy knew all along? And the girl is a real character, not just a joke like I feared. These little stories are fun to read.

Dr Stone: That was a little too easy. But I guess it keeps the story moving.

Yozakura: Nice colour page. And nice set-up chapter. See, this how you jump from place to place without it feeling chaotic.

Roboco: Poor Yamcha. I wonder if anyone is keeping track of all the references.

AT: Obvious gag indeed. But the rest of the chapter was pretty nice, especially the boys' personal moment.

TPN: Does anyone actually like ShootTheShaggyDog stories?

C&D: On the one hand I feel they made this overly complicated. On the other hand, some of it made me laugh and it is nice to see justice served, so I liked it as a whole.

HSF: I like this series best when it's not trying to be funny.

UU: They fixed that plothole nicely. Also that's some impressive drawings there at the end. I wouldn't have minded a few more past chapters, but I understand they wanted to move on with the story.

Moriking: Shoko's disembodied voice cracked me up. But, er, what's going to happen now? I thought the next chapter would be the last, but CSM and WNL are ending in the next number too?

AB: WHAT

PS: I like their interactions. It's good to see something ghost-related that isn't completely evil. And I love the mystery.

OBO: The story itself isn't bad, but the character reactions are so underwhelming that even the dramatic moments fall flat somehow.

I better lower my expectations already.

They would, though. Dr. Stone was on break on Issue 6-7 of 2019 but was still on the cover. There is no reason not to include a series on the group cover when it's on break, it's just a drawing lol.

 

[Ebrietas-]

Isn't he just saying that he would like to work on it which would technically disprove that it is being done by JC staff??

 

[wothab]

Basically, yeah
I don't think he would risk being accused of leaking the production like this.
