Hokami Natsuki's newest one shot,"Greykeys’ Demon World Translation", from the latest Future Jump Project(1 of 9) is now translated:

this guy still need to concise his words. you make action manga, dude give us a lot of actions and double spreads (only 1 in the chapter). you clearly can do it, but for some reason stuck on the mud deliver plot and worldbuilding. and the character not standing out either with a lot of that exposition..
the art is nice tho. i thought his comedy will imrove too, but its not likely. oh well

I am simply incapable of reading OP after the time skip. (Despite absolutely loving it prior) Feels like after that point of time it becomes convoluted mess of repeated storyline. Not to mention the messy paneling. It was genuinely good at one point. Now it is just an overrated manga where many people continue reading due to sunk cost fallacy or herd mentality.

Yeah, harsh. But just my personal opinion

Kagurabachi will hold a Cafe Collaboration with Bandai

Remember that time Chihiro gave the villain a "leg kabedon"? That's the moment where a lot of Yumejo lost their mind.

I need the cafe to have a special menu where the handsome waiter cosplaying Chihiro gives you the leg kabedon.

Japan has a lot of this special service cafes or bars lol. There are muscle bars manned by muscular men (no it is not a gay bar). And in the menu you can ask the muscular man give you a bride carry lol.

You wanna know why the thread seems "civil"? People aren't responding to unfunny trolls and obvious bait anymore because the last time that happened the person moderating this place had a meltdown, locked the thread for half a day and deleted nearly three pages worth of comments made against him and the people involved either left or stopped posting as frequently.
The thread isn't suddenly "civil". It's quiet, because a few people have turned it into their personal circlejerk.
You are absolutely right and summarize it perfectly. Though, most people involved are still here btw.

Just that there isn't much to talk about nowadays. And me personally, i rather be horny than angry.

Oooh, I forgot to comment on this.

It's good to have Hogami back. I love the art work and the concept. A translator of demon language? Really cool! While I would like to say I see this becoming a series....I can't. This is just best as a one shot. I hope he can come up with something else.

I'm in Japan right now and check out what's going on here.

Shinobi Undercover and Himaten are almost out of stock, and they're clearly outselling Kagurabachi and Ichi The Witch. But more than that, look at Hakutaku. It only has one copy left. It's literally selling so well. Jump missed a golden opportunity when they axed it so early, not realizing how much sales it can generate, instead banking all their investment in Ichi The Witch which is now proving to be a dud. Kagurabachi is also proving to stagnate and deteriorate in terms of sales, perhaps owing to fatigue.

No I'm not in Japan, I'm in a local Kinokuniya, the reason for this discrepancy is the low imports of Hakutaku as compared to Ichi The Witch. This image is complete poppycock.

Notice how Nue is not in this. Clearly out of stock already!

Last time I checked my nearest Kinokuniya (it's not the biggest one in the city), the staffs seemed to be really afraid of people buying Kagurabachi

Weekly Oricon Ranking
3. SAKAMOTO DAYS (67,778)
10. Jujutsu Kaisen (48,154)

22. The Elusive Samurai #19 (10,391 / 46,261)
29. Mission: Yozakura Family #28 (8,488 / 33,394)
34. Akane-banashi #15 (7,931 / 37,292)
Damn Yozafams, who thought we would actually sell more than Akane Banashi for a week on Oricon! Not gonna lie this boost is a bit bittersweet because it feels like Gondaira could just go for a few more years with Yozakura than ending now, but well, happy for the success of the finale :occa

Kanai's mom is a typical auntie next door, chatty, talks too much, overbearing, but it's clear from how Kanai talks to her and how Tenichi interacts with her that she's been a close part of Kanai's life. While I can't say she's spoilt Kanai, Kanai herself is shown to be quite proactive in caring for herself and others, it's clear that her parenting developed a very kind and altruistic individual. On the other hand, Himari's mom was introduced in a way that shows her assertiveness and independence, by having her ride in with a bike. Not just any bike, but a Harley Davidson looking power bike, which highly implies that she is a solitary figure (you usually ride this sort of bike alone). Her interactions with Himari shows the distance she puts between herself and her daughter, and how Himari adores and respects her. While some argument can be put on whether this is good parenting, it's clear that Himari herself inherited very similar traits to her mother in becoming a national icon and owning her own company. Hereditary? Perhaps, but I think there's some hint of how Himari's mom cares for her despite the massive amount of distance she puts between each other. Running a company and becoming a model are just not something a high schooler can achieve by their own ability and resources, so you could surmise that some assistance from her mom's part has to have happened, especially considering the bike she's riding ain't cheap, can't be bought by any ordinary woman. The protectiveness she asserts on Himari when confronting Tenichi is more than enough to prove her intervention where it matters most. Still, the dynamics between her and her daughter is closer to that of a sibling dynamic than a parent-child dynamic. It can't be denied that her parenting style developed Himari into a very progressive and independent individual.
lol i feel like you thought more about this than the actual author :grin

Maybe we actually weren't aware but Hakutaku is actually like a video game, and what we read was just the 1st game in a franchise and the sequel will start soon, look at all these copies sold :jawdrop2

Is this the first day of the pre order? Astro in last place…

but we haven’t even seen the cover of volume 4 yet, so once the cover is revealed it might go up a lot more. Not that amazon preorders matters completely to decide how much the manga will sell

I just hope volume 4 sells more than last volume 🙏

I've said this before, but it's been over a month since most color pages have been leaked anymore, and I still find it strange that people here on the forum don't discuss this, the lack of color page leaks in the last few issues.

Astro has never done much good on digital, or at least on Amazon digital rankings, so its not really a surprise.
