The Promised Neverland 013: Kind of lost me with this little twist. I’m now much less sympathetic to a major character and it just doesn’t ring true that Mama’s had all this information but just acted the way she has. Eh. 

One Piece 843: oh Sanji, that’s not necessary. It doesn’t really ring true that Sanji can be blackmailed like this, but I suppose it makes sense in a story context. I’d rather it didn’t come to this, though.

Boruto 006: this chapter improved this spin-off quite a bit. Not only was it nice to see flashbacks of Naruto to remind us what this franchise once was (fun and cute), Boruto himself got to look extremely cute and full of regrets this week, with a truly badass team assembled at the end. Interesting to see where this will go now.

Haikyuu! 227: the team is coming together well! But I still don’t feel anything like the emotional involvement I do with the anime.

Mob Psycho 100 97.4:looks like we’re going to have a good old-fashioned Mob explosion. It’s been a while, and hopefully that will quickly put an end to this rather silly broccoli arc.  

The Promised Neverland 011: probably the most interesting part of this season just now is seeing the slow disillusionment of Emma. But this mole side-plot is more water-treading. Get to the escape!

One Punch Man manga 67: great chapter, actually adding depth to several S-rank heroes that we haven’t seen elsewhere, as well as moving back towards the original story with Garou’s reappearance. Saitama’s little tournament had some nice progression, Child Emperor looked absolutely adorable as always, plus Pig God, Drive Knight and Watch Dog – parallels drawn much more closely to Hachiko this time – were able to show their abilities much more clearly. 

The Promised Neverland 010: aw, they didn’t dive right into the next part, but at least there’s a 10-day limit in the story now. It’s time to move this title out of the orphanage. 

Mob Psycho 97.2-3: things start to reach a head as poor Mob is psychologically alone again. But it’s good to see things picking up and I’m interested in what will follow.  

One Piece 842: Luffy’s fight ends in amusing fashion, though I doubt we’ll see this debu version again, really. Funny, though, and Nami’s evil face always gets a chuckle.

The Promised Neverland 009: I’m not sure if it was the writer’s instinct or an intervention from an editor, but a much more interesting development just got teased for next issue. Good. It’s also intriguing to see the boys might be plotting darker tactics than optimistic Emma’s.
