"What If a Female Manager of a High School Baseball Team Read Drucker's "Management"?" started as a novel, but has since been adapted as an anime and a live action film, in addition to a manga.

It features Kawashima Minami, who becomes a manager of her high school's baseball team. She's determined to see her team make it to Koshien (the national high school baseball tournament), but the players don't share her enthusiasm. They see the tournament as an unrealistic goal and are content for their club to focus on physical fitness, making friends, and building memories together. To learn more about management, Minami ends up buying "Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, Practices," a book written by Peter Drucker, an Austrian expert on economics and management. She finds that the respected, over 30-year-old text actually gives a lot of information that she can apply to managing her baseball team!

Weiss Schwarz is a trading card game featuring characters from popular anime, manga and games. Takeshi has been playing for some time now but shows hardly any signs of improvement. He has never beat Michi, his practice partner and classmate, or even come close to it. He decides however, against everyone disagreeing, to enter a Weiss Schwarz tournament to test his skills. Although Takeshi has heart, his passion for the game alone isn’t going to get him very far; he will have to learn and learn quickly if he wants to make any dent to this tournament.

This is what tethysdust said this week:
Nothing really interested me this week. Moshidora and Kamisama no Karute might be good, though, since I think they're both based on novels (and both have or will have live action film adaptations, I think). According to Wikipedia, the Kamisama no Karute novel was written by an actual doctor, so it could be pretty good.
Here's a note from vyc:
I liked Mirai Shoujo Emomoshon - the concept of daughter being together with younger version of dad might be a little creepy but the comedy keeps it pretty light and easy to read. Ryofukochan - I like the idea. I hope the author can run towards an interesting plot line.
My opinion:
None of the manga really interested me this week...
