One Punch Man (manga) 71: phew, I thought there was going to be a cop-out and Saitama wasn’t going to fight at all, but in the end we got a conclusion, and a pretty funny confirmation of Saitama’s overwhelming superiority.
The Promised Neverland 024: I feel like everything previous has just been thrown out with this, but it’s at least good that there’s an interesting, surprising, action-filled chapter. Is this series fully planned out, though? Who can say for sure?

One Piece 853: Luffy’s back to his plan, stubborn as ever. And Brook’s in an interesting spot. The momentum is picking up, now, and I’m certainly interested where this will all go.
Boruto 009: This arc ends in lazy style, but with a big gesture. At least Boruto looks very cute!

Mob Psycho 100 98.2-3: so this arc will be about telepaths, it seems. I wonder who will answer the call? I hope Dimple will be back before too long, too. I have no doubt he’ll return.

D.Gray-Man 224: no getting around it, this was a pretty lazy chapter! Not much happened at all, and it definitely didn’t come over as a month’s work.

One Punch Man (One wecomic) 109: Yet another King gag chapter, but I can’t say I mind. I love these chapters and this was another funny one.

One Piece 852: pretty satisfying chapter focusing on the main elements of this arc. Luffy’s back in action and closer to his goal now, Sanji’s in a stronger position again even though it was a bit of an easy way out story-wise. And there was some nice interaction with his sister, with her interesting moral take on the situation. It’s getting pretty good now.
One Punch Man 70.2: I suspected it would end this way, with only a demonstration rather than a real hit. But the message – that Saitama’s not having fun any more because of the level he’s reached – was an unexpected bonus.
Mob Psycho 100 97.13: Aw, didn’t want it to end this way, but I’m not too worried. I’m sure that’s not the last we’ll see of Dimple.

Mob Psycho 100 98.1: New arc begins in unspectacular style…wonder where it will go, if anywhere.
