Since I don't know what thread to put these in, I'm going to drop two recommendations here: 1) The Mermaid Princess's Guilty Meal A dark comedy about Era (the titular Mermaid Princess) who pays her respects to her fallen fish friends...by eating them (and liking it a bit too much). There are plenty of gags and references, and somewhere in there are tiny bits of plot of that might one day go somewhere. 2) Love after World Domination What happens when the leader of the local sentai squad falls in love with one of the evil generals? Ok, now imagine that they're both completely inexperienced when it comes to things like dating, and you have Love after World Domination. They're both by the same author and artist, so odds are if you enjoy one you'll enjoy them both.

ConanThe3rd posted:IIRC Guilty Meal is almost completely translated. We're part-way through volume 6 of 7 as from what I can see.

Captain Invictus posted:yeah apparently it just won a major annual award, too. It's been on my list to read for ages but I gotta save those universally-loved series for when I really need'em, as silly as that might sound. Thankfully there's plenty of middling manga to fill the time with until that happens.

Karia posted:Both of those are kind of intense, so let's end with something much more light-hearted. I burned out on Valkyrie 2/3 of the way through the current scanlations, but this one was real good. While the situations get a little repetitive, the chapters short and usually have at least one good gag. About 20ish chapters in the cast starts expanding, and that does a lot to keep things engaging. Also despite being a manga about Shogi, it doesn't really focus too much on how to play the game (it's not one of those cooking mangas were half of each chapter is a recipe) so don't let that deter you if you're looking for a fun rom-com.

Captain Invictus posted:there's a manhwa I've recently been following, it's absolutely fantastic. It's called Beware the Villainess, and it's in the typical otome game isekai genre, but don't necessarily let that dissuade you. I love this series, but I do want to offer one word of caution: it takes a good 20 chapters to get going. However once Melissa starts being proactive it gets awesome and doesn't stop.

Captain Invictus posted:I would say it's pretty good even until then, her just dunking on the crown prince is fun as hell. It's not that it isn't good, but it's chapter 21 when she really takes the reigns and the series starts living up to the hype. Before that she's fun, yeah, but largely ineffectual since no one really takes her seriously.
