Hanakaku - The Last Girl Standing is pretty enjoyable so far (through chapter 6).  It's about a small, timid high school girl who wants to become stronger.  In the past, she failed to protect her friend from bullying and looked the other way with the excuse that she was too weak to make a difference.  However, all the martial arts clubs have turned her away because she lacked physical strength.  Then one day she is saved by a very pretty girl in the same year who also happens to be an MMA fanatic and an excellent fighter herself.  She brings the main character to her gym and pulls her into the world of women's MMA.

The other women at the gym are pretty interesting, too.  

Reminds me of All rounder Meguru. That one is about both men and women's MMA.

Sorry, I've been away for quite a bit. So as an apology, I thought I'd throw down a sick beat or something.

 

 

I know a part of this was posted already, but I just wanted to add to it, cuz it's just soo good!! XD

 

 

Also, the lip balm chapter was a nice one, since I've been having this problem lately myself. Not the applying it on my lips part that is... My lips and knuckles have been dry lately >.>;

Alright, I admit it. Ookami Shounen wa Kyou mo Uso o Kasaneru was really, really good. The ending was excellent. The writer went with the correct ending rather than the formulaic or the superficial. You almost never see that in a manga or anime. I'm deeply impressed.

Botan is ... something else. She's more puppy than human. I warmed up on the Princess, too, especially when she revealed that she disliked the part of her that hurt others.

Also, the mangaka is ridiculously good at drawing cute expressions. I hope to read more from them in the future.

Good recommendation, Clouds.

Glad to hear you liked it~

Thanks for all the recs you've posted in the thread as well. I really enjoyed and picked up a lot of the ones you've posted throughout last year.

Ah!  I remember this thread!  I thought Superboom had finally made good on his threats.

Anyway, I'm sad because I just found out that Batoto is closing down.  It was the one manga hosting site that respected the scan-groups.  

That aside, does anyone read Senryuu Shoujo?  It's about a cute girl with problems communicating (I know) and a boy that everyone is afraid of because of the look of his eyes (I know).  Japan must be full of these types of people.  It's a really nice manga, though.  The girl only talks by writing out poems.  The guy has turned away from fighting because he thinks poetry is really cool.  They both join a poetry club and the girl harbors a secret crush on the guy.

Sounds familiar. Can't quite put my finger on it...

 

And poetry as well. It's on the tip of my tongue...

 

 

Actually, that would be pretty awesome if a manga turned out like that...




Jokes aside, I have been eyeing that manga for some time now. I guess now's a good time to check it out xD

Not today, my friend.

....

Been juggling a few manga lately (decided to read Usagi Drop to see if I dislike the ending as much as everyone says I will), but like usual most of my attention is going to ongoing stuff. Finally got around to reading this month's Attack on Titan, though just cuz it took forever for my manga site of choice to get it.

Warhammer Titan has a cool design, I was wondering when it would show up. She's a beast too, damn that hammer is strong.

RIP Sophie and...other guy. I don't know these new characters' names still. Udo? 

Now that Pieck and Galliard are back in action, we have three enemy Titans to contend with. Really hope Armin is part of this team, been hoping to see the Colossal Titan in action on our side finally. Also I wanna know what Zeke is up to...seems like he and Eren are working together. 

Felt like a short chapter...can't wait for next one. Feel like this manga might be over within the year, though we'll see. Not sure how the author can top this.

Also, I thought it'd be nice to do some catching up in the new year and ask everyone what they're currently reading?

I haven't really picked up any new manga myself, but I have been doing some catching up on other manga I have on my list...

I've started reading something called Ano Musume ni Kiss to Shirayuri.

It's about a girl who works really hard to seem perfect because she secretly doesn't feel worthy of being loved otherwise.  Unfortunately, there is a real genius in her class who is number 1 at everything without even trying.  This girl sleeps through class and avoids most people but she has taken an interest in the main character--perhaps even a serious interest, if you know what I mean.  



Reading a bunch of stuff. Favorites at the moment are Boku no Hero, Kengan Ashura, Aharen-san, Komi-san. Also Musou Telepathy and Tomo-chan though it feels like forever since those updated.

Still waiting for the author of World Trigger to come back from from medical leave. That was easily my #1 modern shonen, and I was even buying the physical copies, but I haven't heard anything about it in months..



Here comes some manga postings while I catch up on all my manga I'll be doing some posts of these.

Sounds pretty close to my holidays actually, haha.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, blood types are usually fun topics. The AB ones I always expect to be the most interesting. xD Also, as an A type, I'm not really sure how we'd peel tangerines.
