Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.

Just started this and for a while I thought it was neat and okay but not super great. Then Senku split from the others and I actively disliked the double-page "here's everyone in the village" that was just a bunch of faces and names (except one) rather than organically introducing them.

And then Chrome appeared and the rad sorcery battle happened and it just keeps getting better from there.

I think it's entirely within Senku's character to take Kohaku aside and demand she list off every villager's name and a short bio so he knows what he's working with.

I am insanely into Ginro's self-delusion, really interested to see how the Chrome Magma fight ends. I don't know if Chrome's power of Science will win but it feels like it'll be Senku vs Magma in the final because it's be weird for the tournament to peak now.

The developer of Brigador is a secret chud, don't give him money
Maybe while he was off screen he developed a personality.

His name is Gen and he is a good boy who just wants some cola even more than babes and a hot spring. I forgot they showed him entering the village because I was expecting it to pay off on the last page rather than just that one or two panels setting it up.

Same. I missed this writer so much, that was a fantastic chapter.

"That's low" may have been my favorite part besides the egg. All scoundrel Senku, all the time please.

After Senkuu unites Japan into a science nation, it is revealed that all of the North American continent has been united into a cowboy based nation and all of the African continent into a basketball-based nation.

There's a non-zero chance Chrome gets disqualified because evil heart explosion magic and/or the sun itself count as outside interference because shonen standards demand the protagonist and current antagonist both reach the finals.

On the other hand it feels thematically appropriate for this manga to end in a situation where the final three contestants are all on the same side so who knows what next chapter will bring.

I don't think ES21 guy cares about shonen standards. One of the big ES21 tournament arcs had both major rival teams they were built up faces in early rounds with a new opponent in the finals.

I can't QUITE say this is my favorite manga ever. Yet.

It's getting there. It's good. SO GOOD. I cannot wait to see how things proceed from here.

E: But seriously, it amazes me that the manga artist/author managed to take the process of creating antibiotics and turn it into an exciting spectacle.

Yes it was linked (Not obvious) in that 'are you making GBS threads me' picture above.
