One Piece 922: that escalated fast! And it’s great to see the arc progress rapidly. I doubt anyone, good or bad, was seriously hurt in this chapter but it’s going to be interesting to see what the fallout is here. I assume Law will get Luffy to safety.
HunterxHunter 386: I’m still not into it. Words, words, words.
Haikyuu! 324: with intentional bathos, the fated match ends. And it was a great one. Hinata not realising the match was over was cute and I found Kageyama thinking about onigiri funnier than I should have done. What’s next for the team?
Dr. Stone 80: a lot of people have been commenting that it might be the case for a while now, but for the first time with this chapter I felt like this title is already about to end. A big team-up against a badly-conceived villain won’t be that fun but maybe the creators just don’t want to be tied to this long-term. But Tsukasa reviving was some bullshit…
The Promised Neverland 108: Ehhh. It wasn’t terrible or anything, but the going out in a blaze of glory and sacrificing yourself to blow up your enemies thing is very overdone. Plus there was meant to be a self-destruct button in this complex. Did that just get forgotten?
D.Grey-Man 230: It’s almost weird at this stage that this title is still going and is still meant to be coherent. It feels all over the place. Just when we were starting to get a rational setup with Allen, Johnny and Kanda on the run together, Allen teleports him and Kanda to England (looked more like Scotland – isn’t that Edinburgh?). I guess we’ll get more flashbacks…
