Yuji, no! That was a load-bearing curse!

I don't look at a lot of AI anime art so I could be wrong, but nothing in the shading on the clothes looks like it's melting. Maybe Aoki's pants? It generally seems to match the shading style used on the color page after it to me. I would absolutely believe it's a paint-over of a stock photo of...

I get putting up split chapters to get things up quicker if they're published that way, but this series publishes full chapters and the raws are up at 56. Why create a split chapter?

You know, it's progress towards a conclusion instead of another week of trading blows and nothing else. (I imagine the pacing on this fight will feel fine on a re-read, but the lower page counts per week make it feel like it's dragging)

Just sigh and pretend they're all actually 4 years older than listed so it matches up how they're drawn/how they act. It's the dumbest trope in the genre, and even if the target demographic for this stuff is 15-year-old boys I don't get why you'd feel the need to de-age everybody under that...

Happy 35th anniversary, George! Now let this fight finish

This fight's gone on for so long I can't remember: have we seen whatever trick Ippo figured out during sparring? If not, I've got a feeling that we can still get the "I've already seen that punch but better" moment. (Though Ippo isn't a counter-puncher, so, hmmmm)

Nicolas Blanco, in the flesh! Watching Junpei! Missing a leg!

No clue, but planning for an anime season can be a pretty significant tax on the mangaka's time. Sometimes they can be very hands-off with the production, but usually they wind up integral to the work of the scriptwriter, the storyboarders, the character designers, advertising teams (including...

I was also reading that as the guild going "there's too many sailors for the town's brothels! lady adventurers, we're issuing an emergency quest" which feels out of pocket for this story. Edit: looks like they fixed it but originally they flipped pages 10 and 11, which really changes the...

"Training people and providing what amounts injury recovery insurance makes people weak. If they all were ill-informed, injured, and desperate to make ends meet they'd be way stronger. I'm the protagonist and I'm very smart." Like huh?

This is actually Aqua with a stage knife, and the knife is actually placed on Ruby's side where Aqua pretended to stab her. "Look, Ruby, we made a whole movie to drill this lesson into you: don't open the door without the chain. It could be some crazy stalker with a knife." (I can cope, ok.)

The axeman cometh

Jose Altuve (though I don't know he does the tongue thing)

"Dance because you can't not dance" goes so hard

The "Forced Drama!"/"We're Rent A Girlfriend 2.0 Now" truthers are in shambles. The "let Fukada-sensei cook" team stay winning.

I got curious and checked the raws. I can't really comment on if the repetition of the word 'evil' stands out in Japanese as much as it does in the translation since I'm not a native (or even fluent) Japanese speaker and thus I have no sense of normal. A lot of the "evil" words are two-kanji...

Here we all are living in the year 2024, while this dude's living in the year 2100

IIRC, the God who gave Kobayashi the holy sword is bored of life and kidnapped a bunch of folks close to Kobayashi to force her, Tohru, and appearently Fafnir into the tournament. The plan looks like it involves using Fafnir's curses to do some kind of self-anihilation trick and escape their...
