Y’know what, lemme pivot the Nue discussion a bit: Nue fans, how far does it seem like the story is from naturally ending? In some sense I could see people saying that, with Kasha being “Hyo number 1”, this decisive battle atop the tree will deal with him and Raisei and be the final battle. But...

Guess I’ve been a bit dulled by the past few occurences. All the anime releases I’ve been around here for have been decent but not huge for sales boosting, and sometimes pretty middling. For a lot of them it was more like returning back to pre-anime peaks after a dip, and then maybe a bit above...

I had a lot of thoughts written up but they kinda sucked so I’m gonna sum them up better. Nue is fully capable of amassing some form of popularity under the right circumstances, but it will be capped at a certain point just off of how it strongly caters to male viewers (fanservice, “nerd boy is...

I know I don’t engage with it much but I do want to say I appreciate the effort you put into the analysis of all of these budding authors in Giga and such.

Right you are. This is making me realize how, despite Akane generally being designated Red as a signature color (in paradigms such as her/hikaru/karashi being the typical red/blue/yellow), both her and Kaisei are rather Pink.

That object on the left next to his hand… could this be a combined cover with someone else on 25 connecting to him?

Tbh as someone who is quite invested in it now, I’m comfortable with saying Kagurabachi didn’t particularly start off super strong. I think both of these things can be true; Chihiro isn’t immediately deeply compelling and the story feels a bit tropey/edgy or generic at the start, and as the...

I’m pretty sure Chihiro being a single-minded and straightforward “bland” protagonist is kind of the point. This kid has given up all semblance of a normal life in pursuit of revenge to the point of forgetting about anything else that matters, especially his own well being and the consequences...

I quite frankly don’t mind if the sales drop during this arc if it means we get to see a full idea of Hokazono’s vision (speaking as someone who is LOVING the character moments this flashback has given us). The greater concern at the moment is his health/lateness to submit that is impacting both...

Issue 41 votes: 1. Kagurabachi (hilarious that I gave it 1st given it was only 13p) 2. One Piece 3. Cannon Master (mostly for the art + emotional panels) 4. Hal Formula 5. Akane-banashi 6. Witch Watch 7. Ichi the Witch 8. Ruridragon 9. Greykeith 10. Shinobi Undercover Hopefully I can give...

Oh boy… I can only imagine what next chapter is gonna look like if it makes you say something like that… If they do a batch of 3 next and don’t get rid of Witch Watch… that would make things interesting. I would hope they use that 21st slot to hold over until WW’s end, at least. I don’t...

If I had to be predictional… I do think since we just had a batch of 2 we’ll have a batch of 3 next, it’ll come in around 8-9 chapters, and it’ll use the slots for Sakamoto, Witch Watch, and Cannon Master. It feels like they want to give some lifeline to 2B since the fanbase is willing to buy...

A lot has been said already about the TOC and Kagurabachi and Nue and more, and I’ve read through most of that discourse, so I’ll try to keep my thoughts not too repetitive on top of what was said. I do believe that they planned on Chihiro being bigger on the cover and shrunk him after learning...

Issue 40 votes because I’m still behind: 1. Kagurabachi (I could stare at this embrace for a lifetime) 2. Akane-banashi (As a character and not as a human being, I have fully fallen in love with Zensho) 3. Sakamoto Days (I really like the Nagumo/Akira dynamic where he’s like her weird uncle or...

All I know for sure is that from how the past few weeks have been and what the current lineup is, the next axe wave is gonna hurt. Genuinely every series in the magazine is good, maybe not good all the time but they all have some real juicy moments that make me appreciate them. If I had to pick...
