Years ago, much like Yotsuba&! and Negima before it, Tokyo Mew Mew was actually one of the manga series that would get me back into reading manga full time. I never would think that a “girly” manga like this was filled with so much love and entertainment around fictional cat girls would leave a big (though not as big compared to other huge fans of the series) memory regarding learning more about the fantasy and to an extent, shojo genre.

Tokyo Mew Mew will go down as possibly both successful and also underrated at the same time, and I do hope the updated version for this anime series does justice to Mia Ikumi and her legacy. She deserves it.

Has there been any other word about what it was about the Toei computer hack and why they have to indefinitely postpone their anime broadcasts as a result?

This manga is also getting an anime adpation and I am looking forward to that (I do hope though that they get the style right some of the latest animes I watched weren't what I hoped for)

I'd say it really depends what studio and who's in charge. once you know that you can adjust your expectations appropriately.

Season 2 of Love Live! SuperStar! will be premiering in July.

The timing of it seems way too close to Love Live Nijigasaki Season 2's debut in April. And with their Virtual School Idol group debuting in Autumn, it does seem like they're throwing too much content all at once.

at this point I'm just waiting for some LL vtubers. imagine one of the OGs frome μ's showing up even once.
 
Watched then read Tokyo Revengers on my brother's recommendation (he's a battle shounen fan) and it got me interested in the whole delinquent genre. Anyone have any suggestions? Maybe something a little less "power of freindship/determination" focused.

The manga is called "the wrong way to use healing magic" and it's based of the Webnovel Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata ~Senjou wo Kakeru Kaifuku Youin~

Bouncer
The manga centers on Jouichirou Shishido, a 19-year-old man whose frank honesty has cost him 26 part time jobs. One night, he runs into a group of muscular bodyguards who protect the streets at night, members of a private security firm known as "Tokyo Fist," which ends up changing his life.

Shinjuku Swan (Darker series, but from the same author of Tokyo Revengers)
Shiratori Tatsuhiko was a bum wandering the streets with no money to his name when he meets Mako. He works as a scout for an agency called Burst that recruits girls on the streets for adult entertainment in the Shinjuku area of Tokyo. Tatsuhiko quickly learns the techniques of scouting and is even more attracted to how much money he can make. But with how the industry is maintained, Tatsuhiko has to deal with the lying, deception, violence, greed and even the yakuza. He wants to keep the morals that he has, but it gets progressively harder and harder as he gets deeper into the other side of society.
