Started reading Shangri-La Frontier

Basically a VR MMO game where the Mc who is great at beatin trash glitchy games starts playing a super well made. While the plot isn't super high stakes because its a VR game. But he is such a hardcore tryhard so there has been intense moments already.

Shangri-La Frontier: Kusoge Hunter, Kamige ni Idoman to su

Second year high school student Rakurou Hizutome is interested in one thing only: finding "shytty games" and beating the crap out of them. His gaming skills are second to none, and no game is too bad for him to enjoy. So when he's introduced to the new VR game Shangri-La Frontier, he does what...

Volume 2

Sunraku really got caught at the wrong place at a wrong time. He meeting up with Pencilgon was great because you could feel the intense rivarly between the two . He did got some help but luckily he was able to get out of their and finally get in a spot to get the proper resources and level up. Tho its interesting now that everyone is gunning for him. Tho a scheduled meetup between Kazto and Pencilgon was surprising. Pencilgon was intense tho god damn . Psyger-100 being his childhood friend and she just wants to spendtime with him in the game . And she can't get that easily . The point that Sunraku playing so much garbage games which puts him at a higher skill level then most players is something really interesting

Read through the first volume of this and honestly it was pretty good. Def a potential hidden gem.

Touge Oni

In the ancient kingdom of Yamato, between the eras of gods and men, there was a time when the two coexisted. Miyo is chosen to serve as a human sacrifice to her village's god, Kippuuson-no-Mikoto, but she's not ready to die! Can Ozuno, a monk with the ability to speak one-on-one with the gods...

An Orphan Miyo is meant to be a sacrifice however when she sees what very may be her future and goes and becomes the priests disciple. After giving the opportunity live is an opportunity she can't let go away. Zenki while aggressive towards Miyo does care for her. The point of their journey being able to grant a wish. A wish no matter how big or small. Zen's wish being to be human again is a giant one and Miyo's wish of living in the capital is a much lesser one in terms of demanding. But despite that the happiness they will receive from these wishes is just as big.

So each God has a divine instrument. This makes the journey a very interesting one. In chapter 3 Miyo was able to solve the current crisis granted it was more luck of the draw for her. It is clear that doing good for them is always desirable even when there is no benefit to it. Granted you never know when the kindness will be rewarded in due time.

Oni's seem to be a real threat to the world, but people who come across as strange also get that label. Thats kinda messed up. One thing is cool to see the 3 of them in the future. The series is mostly about these 3 journeys to get to that point.

Spoiler: Togue Oni Volume 1

Also read through volume 1 Mr. Villians Day off. More of a chill read but damn some of these chapters were hilarious

"How dare the humans treat their children so poorly I can't wait to wipe humanity. "

Then him realizing that would wipe out the children as well Some nice wholesome chapters mixed in as well.

Kyuujitsu no Warumono-san

As a member of a malevolent organization, the General is tasked with invading Earth and wiping out humanity. Even an extraterrestrial being like him, however, needs a chance to rest. Not even the Rangers—a team solely dedicated to defeating the General and his colleagues—will stand in the way of...

Ichnoise Family Deadly Sin Ch. 39 - Sota finally coming back to reality of how much of an idiot he is. Tho the idea that each family member is one of the 7 deadly sins is interesting.

Tenmaku Cinema Ch. 20 - Looks like 1 or 2 chapters left. A shame if it gets axed . This has been my favorite weekly sunday manga since it started.

Polar Opposites Ch. 39 - This series gives off major Horimiya vibes. What a great wholesome chapter.

Kill Blue Ch. 19 - These last two chapters have gotten the series back on track. And this chapter was the best chapter yet

Nue's Exorcist Ch. 16 - shyt I kept with this series and honestly Mangaka is improving and the story is finding its rhythm. Still need to see more to say if its any better then decent

I’m sad it’s getting axed, it’s been 1 of the most enjoyable WSJ titles I’ve read since it’s been out. I can’t say I’m surprised though since the numbers haven’t been great.

Dark Gathering Ch. 48.

Holy shyt

Yayoi set Eiko up with a broken ghost. She took that Black Asura of the Eclipse was able to make he even more powerful then S rank. . It seems they about to get the W and walk out with their lives except some new ghost comes out. And those mob ghosts carrying out leads us me to believe that is the boss. And they gonna need to beat it to save Yayoi.

Say what you will about Eiko's psycho side. Its because of that side that Yayoi is still savable. But damn Anna is an infinite spiral of pain that won't end till they win

Spoiler: Dark Gathering Ch. 48

Frieren Ch. 111

Frieren is back

Nice chapter per usual we get. Seeing Frieren now in the past we get to see what she has learned from Himmel and how she has changed. Obviously she doesn't want to risk something happening to Fern and Stark so no surprise no mention of those two. Also Eisen really is the tank of the party god damn.

Spoiler: Frieren Ch. 111

Cafe Terrace Ch. 119

Big Ouka Chapter. Great mix of comedy and development. There is clear favoritism at this point in her favor from Seo.

Shangri-LA Frontier Vol 3

The game's world is getting more interesting

Looks like Sunraku is teaming up with Pencilgon and Kei to take down Whethermon. It's gimmick is a level cap of 50 giving a level of difference of 150 .Well I am sure the trio should be fine. Tho Sunraku's cockiness of skipping the first town basically had him skip an essential tutorial . Tho the weapon crafting and how the skills combine each other is really cool, makes me wished this game was real. The stab betlte and queen Be proving big dividends as an exmaple. Tho the npc dying is kinda big since all these rabbits are NPC's. Sunraku would get screwed if any died.

Poor Rei tho poor girl was anxious to closer to her Sunraku and Pencilgon got doing tasks in a blink of an eye. Kei choosing the female avatar was interesting choice at first, but the extra story actually shows he thought out his character creation pretty thorough. Tho Sunraku explaining to Emul that Kei is a guy despite looking female

Shangri-La Frontier Volume 4

This series really going the extra mile showing not only SLF game itself, but Sunraku's family life along side him playing the other shytty games. Most MMO series don't even try to excel in one of these areas and here we are getting a series doing that with all 3.

The fight in this volume was fukking intense

You could tell while playing that Berserk game dude really sinks his teeth in. And the best part he was more then happy to lose a round since he got more enjoyment seeing the newbie unlock a new glitch. I got made respect for him . I love the banter with between Sunraku, Pencilgon and Oicazzo there banter is fukking great

Wethermon is basically your typical superboss, but a superboss on fukking steroids. Pencilgon pulling all the fukking stops. The amount of in game currency she spent for this fight is fukking insane. Sunraku is putting in the work but god damn this shyt takes a toll not to mention the constant part of dying and reviving. That stat buff was fukking clutch .Ociazzo is the 2nd line of support but damn is the dude creative.

Props for Sunraku for sticking to his pride. He actually wants to beat Wethermon not win from him falling apart. Now we on to round 3.
