Another week in the books. Let’s chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.
Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).
Some highlights for me from this past week:
I have mentioned this series before, but the two leads in this series are so lovably weird that I have been really enjoying it. Despite the name, Kirio is really just a side character and you never actually see his face at all. I am super looking forward to the announced anime adaptation of the series.
A big change in tone in the chapters released this past week. I really enjoyed a more serious take on the superpowers that have only ever been played for laughs to this point. I hope that the author isn’t afraid to do this more as the series goes.
This one is a good mix of weird and fun. I had this one on my to-read list from a while back when @PrincessKadath@ani.social had posted some of the early chapters. I finally decided to give it a shot. I am only 7 chapters in so far, but plan on catching up soon. Not sure how this is going to resolve, but the characters are delightfully quirky and it’s just a lot of stupid fun.
I’d be remiss if I didn’t at least mention this one after all the shilling I used to do for the author’s previous work, Assemble! Mysterious Research Club / Atsumare! Fushigi Kenkyu-bu. This new series is about a demon that has come to Earth to recruit some evil guys to bewitch into being her slaves. You might be wondering to yourself what the most efficient way to meet evildoers might be. Well, she decides that it is to become a police officer to meet all the criminals. And thus, a workplace comedy about a demon police officer and her straight-laced partner is born. I’m not entirely sold after just the first chapter, but I have enough faith in the author that I am willing to let it go for a while.
