Chainsawman 33: I think there’s no plan to this manga at all. A visit to a yakuza boss who made an interesting point about yakuza protecting Japan from worse foreign gangsters, thankfully undercut by being confronted with what a shitty excuse that is to be a criminal, and then the beginning of a large-scale assault. Very freewheeling.

The Promised Neverland 145: well, the pace just increased dramatically. Including everyone turning against Norman. I feel like this genius leader should have been able to keep them on his side somewhat better. And him now having tuberculosis or whatever tragic illness is a bit too far on the cheesy side for my liking.

Samurai 8 13: the pacing of so many other Jump series seems to be picking up, but this one is just all over the place. The battle ended in a flash, now we have seven clones of the main character (Kishimoto does love clones, which people like to say is down to him being a twin) and no clear focus for the storyline. I still find this to be a mess.
