Mob Psycho 100.3-4: One’s art is
definitely improving a lot. Hopefully that will transition to One Punch Man soon. How will Mob’s
rampage end, and how will this affect how he sees himself? Interesting to find
out.

Dr. Stone 17: quite a lot of the chapter given over to just
showing names and faces, but I’m quite liking this development. The newly-introduced
characters are quite interesting and I wonder how this little society will
develop the storyline.
The Promised Neverland 45: the kids are safe for now, but who is looking over
them? Clearly they’re not to be trusted. I want to see who they are.

Dr. Stone 14-15: the prequel chapter was
a little slow, but quite interesting. Nice to see a manga encourage logical
thinking – like Death Note, I suppose!
And The Promised Neverland right now
as well. But now the title has moved on to its next phase, with the heroes
separating. Wonder if we’ll follow each group or just Senkuu…
The Promised
Neverland 42-43:
no surprise that the bestial demon was easily dealt with, but the new twists
here with Ray separated from the rest and a strange new face appearing make
this arc more interesting than the last has been for a while. I’m intrigued!
One Punch Man 75: This is pretty much how I expected things to go, with a bit more Suiryuu than I’d wanted. Great to see the ease with which Saitama dismantles this set-up.
One Piece 866: Even though Big Mom’s such a distorted, crazy character, even she gets this kind of back-story. It’s funny to see her so young, with the same uncontrollable abilities.
Haikyuu 255: Some great expressions in this chapter, haha
Dr. Stone 12: I knew there would be something to undo what happened before this. Wonder how the title will develop.
The Promised Neverland 40: This chapter played through what was clear from the last chapter. Still entertaining! And the omake was oddly cute as well.
One Piece 868-869: Fun chapters! The
plot went awry, of course, but there’s a moment of respite as Bege shows
another amusing power. Some last snippets of the young Lin-Lin’s life too. I
enjoyed these a lot…too bad there’s another break.
Haikyuu! 258-259: Cute, Hinata is
starting to think for himself and emulate others. This kind of minutiae is what
makes sports manga fun.
One Punch Man 76: Unexpected chapter, half
Puri Puri Prisoner gross-out homophobic humour that admittedly can be very
funny (though was much better-done in Macadamia
Wasshoi) and half uncharacteristic soul-searching from Saitama.
Mob Psycho 100 100.1: Well, this is quite
the development. Should have the next chapter tomorrow…quite excited to see
what happens next.

Haikyuu! 254: Seeing a frustrated Hinata is pretty cute. I know
Karasuno will win this one, but I’m curious to see how they overcome this.
Mob Psycho 100 99.1-2: the new arc will be confession, eh? I hope
this goes to somewhere more…exaggerated. It’s been a bit boring lately, and the
omake wasn’t very funny.
Dr. Stone 011: Interested to see where this goes. I doubt they’re
aiming to wrap this all up in 20 chapters and there’s the intrigue of the other
people

One Piece 864: no explosion where one was expected, as it’s still
brewing, but Bege got the best lines at the end of this. Though the
misunderstanding about Brook’s face was rather brilliant. Definitely looking
forward to the rest of this developing!
Dr. Stone 09: Quite a satisfying chapter, though Senju has some
ridiculous speed. Obviously the other factions will intervene…but who might
they be?
Boruto 012: this looked like it would be a bad generic filler-style chapter,
but it was actually very well done, and with nice art. Didn’t appreciate what
became of poor Shino in the Omake, though.
The Promised Neverland 37: the escape finally happened. Very nice bit of
backstory for Mama too, especially connecting her to Ray in an unexpected
manner. Looking forward to seeing how this title develops from here.
