Yeah my heart kinda died there.

I'm also far more upset at the fact that Mari (aka the best girl) is not in a good costume

This series rapidly has become "Reaction Faces: the manga."

Yeah, there's a good reason Nisekoi's so popular despite it's very generic premise.
Are there any other goons that have the Majikore app?

I hope that when this series is done, the artist can work on something a bit more substantial than a harem comedy. The artist is really able to stretch their style with all these great expressions.

Protip, the artist is writing a harem comedy because he got poo poo on when he tried to make an actual good manga.

He doesn't seem to hate doing Nisekoi though. By that I mean he isn't actively trying to sabotage the series like Akira Toriyama with DBZ.

I dunno, is that really what's going on? Dude makes a funny series, and I'd wager he's more at the point where figuring out bizarre new ways to toe the age rating line is a game at this point.


Let's just hope his gambling streak never fails him. Good lord I haven't laughed that at a manga in forever.

He started just doing whatever after a short while because DBZ got far too big for what he wanted. Long, drawn out fights and stupidly-OTT powerlevels constantly jumping ever higher was an attempt to shake the hardcore fans but they loved it even more. He wanted to start up on other manga ideas and he even wanted to dabble in video games (like how he did the illustrations and designs for Dragonquest) but because of editorial pressure he had to persist with the Dragon Ball franchise. I think he wanted Dragon Ball to end after Vegeta and Nappa were beaten on Earth, from memory. Krursk knows the full story if you ever spot him around the forums.

Raku helps out his Yakuza friend's cake shop and it ends up outperforming Mamadera's shop by accident.

It starts on Ch 101.

Nisekoi is pretty much the author checking through a list of harem comedy cliches with a side of funny faces. It's not pretending to be anything else either so hey, I'll take it.

"Toriyama wanted to end DBZ at X point" is quite possibly the most hilarious lie the DBZ fanbase won't let die.

Don't read Nisekoi expecting things to happen other than comedy and occasional self-referential stuff about how absurd his harem is.

You know, given the fact that the people at Shueisha are probably still kicking themselves over the goldmine that Attack on Titan turned out to be, I wouldn't put it past them to allow a manga to be uncancelled. Pretty doubtful that they do it with Double Arts, though.

We all know that no-one is going to win, but it's very obvious that Yui is the promised girl, the only real reason why Marika was so mortified when she made her appearance.

There's a 2-page extra chapter that was released a short while after the most recent chapter, showing a bit of Yui's past.

Apparently she unified the warring factions through the sheer power of ~moe~

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

If they uncancelled Mx0, I would almost be willing to forgive them for cancelling it in the first place.

Eugh, don't remind me. At least Double Arts ended on an upbeat, if all-too-sudden note. The 'ending' to Mx0 just reeks of crippling hopelessness, like the author was told it was being canned and just gave the gently caress up.
