[Captain Cadaver]

I do, though there wasn't much else short to choose from for the challenge and at least the chapters are easy to skim through due to how little there is to take away from them. 2

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Subjected myself to breezing through more of Ping Pong up to chapter 37. As expected, still a whole lot of nothing (and I doubt that's to change. Just wanting to get it over with to fulfill Kenshi's challenge).

Read the first volume of Blade of the Immortal. It was so-so. Manji being immortal really saps the tension from most of the fights (though I expect that will change soon) and Kuro stitching the head of Rin's mother just screamed "edgy". Hopefully, it gets a lot better soon.

Dragon Ball, DB Super, Tokyo Ghoul

 

[Papasmurf]

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 7. Currently on chapter 39.

 

[SSJ2]

Berserk, and the most recent chapters of Super and OP.

 

[Papasmurf]

Been reading some of Shin Kurosagi because scanlations of it have been coming out so slowly since I started the manga in 2012 that it was only recently that it was all translated. The episodic set up of the series really limits it from good storytelling other than when important villainous characters get involved, but it's nowhere near as much of a flaw as it is with Detective Conan or similar series.

Just finished Gunnm.

Reading Blame! now. Started it ages ago but never got around to reading it.

 

[Papasmurf]

I read Waga Tousou as a joke and read some of Ichigo Marshmallow and Gunnm: Kasei Senki as well. Also re-reading I"s and 3x3 Eyes.

 

[SSJ2]

Starting Devilman tonight.

 

[SSJ2]

Finished volume 1 of Devilman. It’s off to a great start.

 

[Papasmurf]

Finished volume 1 of Devilman. It’s off to a great start.

It's only 5 volumes long. You should be able to finish it within a day or so.

 

[SSJ2]

Finished volume 2. Still pretty entertaining.

I've posted my thoughts on Alita in the reading thread [mention]Supreme[/mention], if you wanna read. It isn't too big and detailed but it's what I could come up with lol.

I'm gonna read Shin Angyo Onshi next. Kenshi recommended it.

 

[SSJ2]

What's your rating?

 

[ahill]

7/10 I guess

 

[SSJ2]

Going to find another short manga to read before reading Last Order. Maybe Akira?

 

[Papasmurf]

Yea sounds like a good choice considering Akira's fame.

 

[SSJ2]

Halfway through the first volume. They are much longer than Devilman's.

 

[Warmmedown]

Dragon Ball Z chapter 30 or so. Was reading huge Vegeta vs Goku and then up to the hospital, skim read a few more chapters up to Namek. Was surprised how short the time on the spaceship with Bulma, Krillin and Gohan was.

 

[SSJ2]

Nearly on volume 5 of Akira. I can definitely see why this is considered a classic but the story feels like it is beginning to drag on. There are still 2 more long volumes left lol.
