Ninja Shinobu-chan no Junjou was a recent find, really enjoying it over all. Kumo desu ga, nani ka? remains my top choice for "why in the heck is this not already an anime" series though.

For those of you who are like me and are interested in TRINITY SEVEN, it just updated two chapters translated.

No "Boku no Hero Academia" this week. The author ended up being sick.

Goblin Slayer raw is circulating on the chans, Elf Archer is trying to teach GS how to enjoy and adventure, sadly instead of finding slimes or whatever they found footman goblins.

Caught up with the last 30 chapters of kissxsis. Mikuni has gotten so lewd. Only a small chance of winning but her chances have just dropped to a snowball's chance in hell.
 
Hero Academia 161

Well, that got just a bit darker.

Consequences!

...just read the latest batch of translations from Hajime no Ippo at Mangastream.

I have no words for what just happened. I got goose bumps from reading that, and that final page. Is this really it?

I was so fucking infuriated by this entire last fight. I can't even imagine how the manga can actually proceed, with how fucking dumb what just happened was.

Hajime no Ippo was one of my favorite mangas to see updated, and.... now its fucked. Fuck that noise. It's done. On the shittiest possible note.

Just read through all of the chapters of Black Clover that are currently up. Fun stuff.

However, the artwork....

Some of the chapters look unfinished, especially the most recent one. A good chunk of 136 is rough lines.

Still a very enjoyable read though.

Those chapters with the unfinished art were both around the time that HxH was announced to be returning from hiatus so it's generally assumed they were a tribute. There was at least one other manga that did the same thing last time but I can't remember which.

Really? Is that how it's actually ending? Are they just going to do a few wrap up chapters and an epilogue now? Because you're right, there's no way the story can recover. Way to shit on all the fans.

Well, Morikawa has been getting worse health wise, so that could be one reason. I mean, he did cut down on the page length for some of the chapters.

I would have preferred an official statement from the man himself that he was going to finish the manga, but apparently, there are still chapters coming, so we will see how it goes.

Personally, I'm hoping Ippo ends with this. It's the best chance it has to end semi-gracefully given how bad the fights have been for years now

I remember Morikawa's health affecting chapter releases. I'm just surprised that they don't hire ghost artists to keep popular manga going, so the original author just has to work on storyline. Can you imagine if Stephen King were a manga artist? He'd have burnt out by now trying to write and draw everything. Focusing only on the writing has to be easier, especially if your health is poor. But if he was straight up retiring, an announcement would be nice.

But I don't think Ippo has won a single fight since stepping on the world stage. And now there's this loss. It's like it's moving towards a bitter ending focusing on the dangers of boxing. Sort of like Kamogawa's buddy (Dachi?) who retired punch drunk.

I think it should have been taken as a danger sign when Ippo said that if he lost again, he was going to quit, full stop. He pretty much set himself up to fail with that.

Makes me wonder how Morikawa is going to make use of this in-universe, considering how all the hype Ippo had to live through were pretty much torched thanks to this loss.

Berserk updated, finally. New chapter is up in Mangastream.

...yeah, should have expected Griffith's fucking memory to be there and mess things up as ever. Not only that, but Berserk armor decided to add its own brand of unpredictability to the mix.

Hayate no gotoku extra chapter.

If that chapter translation isn't bs-ing, Maria turns out to be Hayate's half-sister.

Well, for what it's woth, Hajime no Ippo updated with 2 new chapters in Mangastream.

Ippo's real condition seems to be portrayed as a huge question mark, and Takamura is going all in with the certainty that Ippo isn't going to come back to the boxing ring.
