Dowman Sayman Manga (Voynich Hotel, Melancholia, Suicide Parabellum, Oddman 11). They're all short manga with endings that I like.
The Emanon manga series (Omoide Emanon and Sasurai Emanon) are both like 50 chapters collectively.
does Getter Robo Count? All except for Arc have good endings, with Arc ending on a cliffhanger because Ishikawa died.
Spirit Circle and Biscuit Hammer are both good and will hold you over until Sengoku Youkou S2 drops.

The Philippine English dub of Digimon:

Imagine, what if US studios said fuck it, and just acquired the English dubs from Southeast Asian countries and put them on US networks, especially with these accents?

Well, it's happening.
Sakamoto Days is finally getting its own anime, and I am absolutely excited about it.

It will come out in January 2025, so if you are curious about what this series is about, read the manga to see why it's worth the wait.

I'm definitely gonna be looking forward to this but I am a bit worried it might get a little too overhyped, it is already extremely popular as a manga out is even outselling a few other WSJ manga that recently got anime adaptions (UU and Yozakura) and given how almost every shonen anime that's got popular over the past few years has been insufferable in one way or another, thsay days of it being a fun action manga might be numbered.

Also feels weird that sugita is voicing another shonen jump MC outside of gintoki, yes I know he also did young joseph but the battle tendency anime was over a decade ago and kinda short in the grand scheme of jojo.

The Philippine English dub of Digimon:

I still have a fond memory of my brothers and I losing it over thinking Mimi said MetalSeadramon was "burning the bitchhouse". God bless Filipino voice-actors.

Anything from Tsutomu Nihei like Biomega, Aposimz, Blame! Endings are more open ended in Nihei fashion but they leave you with something satisfying to ponder once you finish.

Who else is following Maria no Danzai?

Massive mummy domme vibes in the most recent chapter.



Also really feel for the kids that were left alive by the torture gang. It almost would have been kinder if they'd been put out of their misery, rather than living with what was done to them.

I'm happy we're back to trend of women with boobs larger than their head.

Fourth-wave feminism slowly creeping through normie spaces means we're allowed to enjoy fanservice again.

That's actually a big part of the plot/character; she had a ton of plastic surgery, both so that she could assume a new identity, and also that she'd be able to more easily manipulate certain kinds of coom brained morons into doing what she needed them to do.

It makes a nice visual for the reader, but it also emphasises how insanely obsessed she is with achieving her goals... and also how stupid some males are when they're around a decent pair of boobs.

Agreed, but i don't think that ever affected japanese media

Nah we definitely had a reduction in size over the years. Once upon a time the chest size in anime was an inverted gaussian.

I started reading "Die Wergelder" by Hiroaki Samura, loved "Blade of the Immortal", wasn't ready for the high-impact gore and sexual violence in this. I am not even halfway into the first book and it's already pretty fucked up. Gonna keep reading because it is just three volumes and his pencils are still top notch, even if he recycles a lot of char designs from Blade. Autistic use of german is another plus.

Much deserved congratulations to Keisuke Itagaki, as his Baki series has now sold over 100 million copies worldwide.

To celebrate, their YouTube channel did voice acting of famous scenes of the manga in question:

Either way, congratulations to Keisuke for this great milestone!

Baki has some of the ugliest set of character designs I have ever seen. Even the fuck-ugly faces Onizuka from GTO would make aren't as garish.

I'm happy we're back to trend of women with boobs larger than their head.

All pale in comparison to the paragon herself.
