Holo and Kraft easily have one of the best relationships around. I love that they get to a point of back and forth and both of them know what they're really saying.

Have you started on Wolf & Parchment yet?

Finished the first volume of W&P last night.

Good start to the series.

As far as I can tell Manga is booming, but that might be less visible with online sales and the general paper shortage.

not exactly manga but it took so many elements from looney toons and anime and mange that it should be a hybrid....the mask by the dark horse

Oof, not good. That could lead to no more paper mangas. Then nasty paywalls will be norm.
I used follow a really good manga/webcomic from S. Korea. It publishers decided to put a charge for access and essentially kill it with way we're charging access per issue if I remember right.

That sort thing could happen with Japanese Mangas as well.
Call me old fashion, I do prefer off line reading and own my book verses Crunchyroll website and worry licence expiring or being force to edit content due to the market place. I hate that with a passion.

You do not have to worry about that, Manga is one of the more profitable uses for paper.

Read the ending to Mermaid Princess's Guilty Meal. Ending felt kinda abrupt, but did resolve most of her issues. Still didn't quite feel satisfying though. I want to collect the recipes however.

Looks like The Duke of Death and his Black Maid finally wrapped up. The ending felt very much like Aa, Megami-sama. Pretty nice wrap up.

Yankee loved by the spirits was a very cute read. Isekai about a delinquent that get gets hit by a truck, yaddayadda. Cute art, fun theme and I enjoyed it.

Looks like volume 12 of the Black Lagoon manga will be released in a couple months or so here in the States.

2.5, roughly.

Then again, there were about 5 years each between volumes 9 and 10 and then 10 and 11.

Was there delay getting it exported or the author had to take a break?
UQ Holder finally ended, what tragic publishing history that book had.

Aoki Hagane No Arpeggio was one last ones i was steadily seeking out and buying. I think ThAT still in production still, but slow.

Chapter 131 (roughly current one), Germans are introduced fighting the gone rogue Musashi. Its more realistic than KC.

They are up Volume 22, Volume 20 was released in English May 2022. The American/English publisher has next volume in 2023.

Last actual published Volume, no.22 was released in December 27th, 2021. However, the chapters are still rolling out. I think it's giving space for the Japanese Magazine Shōnen Gahōsha's Young King OURs to get first dibs on stories before they get sent to other medias like Volumes and being translated.

Seems Kazuki Takahashi, creator of the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga, has died while snorkeling. His body was found floating in the waters off Nago in the Okinawa prefecture.

Respect, Yu-Gi-Oh was close second to Pokemon in introducing my generation to Tabletop.

I've been reading what I can find online. Stuff I like usually is scifi but seems isekai (another world) genre is more available(?) or new. High School rom/com genres aren't really my thing. Its seems to be same old pattern, with new quirky characters.
