Who knew Raku's into graffiti? Then again, it's for a good reason—the second season of the anime has started! If you haven't watched it, I'd give it a try. It's well animated and surprisingly stylish...I mean for an anime based on a comedy manga with so many antics.
Nisekoi
by Naoshi Komi
Raku's dream date with Onodera was going so good! But of course fate threw a monkey wrench in the works, and now he's faced with a terrible dilemma—go meet Onodera at the giant Christmas Tree or save his beloved pendant from the jaws of the trash compactor! Talk about impossible choices! What will he do?
Toriko
by Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro
I have a decent imagination, so it's not often I think, "Man, how does this guy come up with this stuff?" But this entire Pair arc has blown my mind. The most amazing part to me is just when you think there's no way it can get crazier, Shimabukuro Sensei cranks it up a notch! I really thought there was no way he could have topped the flying poop cloud, but this chapter has totally proven me wrong!
World Trigger
by Daisuke Ashihara
The Rank Wars are getting serious! Agent Murakami and Agent Kuga face off in an intense hand-to-hand bout of combat! Meanwhile, the Nasu Squad is still very much in the game, and it's nobody's match so far.
Food Wars
story by Yuto Tsukuda, art by Shun Saeki, contributor Yuki Morisaki
Soma's submitted his attempt at French Cuisine! So far, everybody's been blown away by it's appearance, but they've yet to taste it! Furthermore, it's a Chicken-and-Egg Rice Bowl dish?! Is that really French Cuisine?! And will it impress Chef Kojiro Shinomiya?!
My Hero Academia
by Kohei Horikoshi
Most everyone expected Midoriya and Todoroki to advance deep into the tournament for an epic one-on-one match, but lo and behold, the twosome are somehow matched up in the second round of the tournament! But can Todoroki really handle Midoriya with only half his power at his disposal?! Who will sacrifice the most to win?
Gakkyu Hotei: School Judgment
by story by Nobuaki Enoki, art by Takeshi Obata
The plot thickens, yet again! The body in the rabbit cage has been identified, but it's still a mystery how the door was locked. The only person with a key is the mild-mannered Tento. Making matters worse, he's a suspect in the Bloody Classroom Session. There are lots of questions, but not many answers. Could Tento really be a killer?
Black Clover
by Yûki Tabata
Three more chapters of Black Clover! And I must say, this has been a very fun manga to read, and so far every chapter's been a hit. The world is interesting, the action great, the characters interesting and above all, it's really funny. The art is solid too. If this keeps up, I have a feeling this is going to be a major hit. And in these chapters we start to get a broader look at the world, including a magical shopping trip to Castle Town!
Extras: Kishimoto Sensei's Naruto Fan Art Cover Picks, Toriko Bundle MEGA MEAL, Nihongo Lesson, Author Comments.
