So, the 2nd chapter of Samon the Summoner got dropped on 4chan and i still don't like it. It doesn't seem funny, entertaining or anything like that and there is no real story. The summoner MC wants to bring the main heroine down from her "Angel" like status and thanks to that status other demons start to attack her or people close to her, because demons hate angels and stuff like that. I don't think it will survive for that long.

Right now Mononofu seems more interesting than that, although the story there revolves around the MC being an autist... It's practically Rain Man with Shogi.

"you know the weird creepy transfer kid?"
"you know the one that's clearly an evil bad guy?"
"you know the one who won't shut up about summoning monster?"
"he's getting close with most popular chick in our class, let's try to beat him up, that sounds like a good idea"

Japanese kids are dumb.

anyway, Samon's chapter 2 is pretty much (copy/paste)ed chapter 1, but i enjoyed it
now i want to see a serious arc in this manga

Yeah I agree. It didn't seem as funny, however, I found it more enjoyable then Mononofu's second chapter. I wonder why it's taking the gag-manga page count. Samon looks to have a more story/battle focus then just straight up comedy. Is it just me, or did this chapter feel like it could have been a little longer? I felt like some missed comedy chances could have happened with Emi, you know build her character up with comedy before "those" events took place. It kinda felt like "Oh here's the best friend, something bad happens to the best friend, care about her." I feel like Emi's character could have been introduced better in this chapter, rather than her just being the typical "Childhood Friend Character" that you should care about.

I'm enjoying Samon more than Mononofu though. The cartoony style and design really makes it stand out.

I don't know what it is with Mononofu. I enjoyed this chapter, it was written well, but something about the series itself just isn't clicking with me. Oh well, c'est la vie.

Why do people calling him an autist? Tunnel vision doesnt make one an autist.

"Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired social interaction, verbal and non-verbal communication, and restricted and repetitive behavior"

Though is not confirmed that the main character is really an autist.

November and December?
To begin with, Vol 1 normally would've come out in September or October, Idk why they delayed it until November, I guess vol 2 coming in December is a way to go back to a more normal release schedule

Gintama's gorilla author unfortunately ate some rotten bananas and got sick. He's gonna spend the next two weeks swinging on his tire swing on gorilla mountain and then he'll come back in issue 47.
