Another week in the books. Let’s chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.
Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).
Read the first 6 chapters of NO\NAME! This one was pretty cool. People receive powers based off their names. Our protagonists are name cops investigating a string of murders.
Read some Sailor Moon. I’m almost halfway through (roughly corresponding with the early episodes of Sailor Moon S), and what’s struck me hardest about it is just how different the manga feels due to the absence of all the filler I’m used to from watching the anime. On the one hand, it’s mostly great! It’s like watching the anime, but only with the parts where things actually happen! On the other hand, I’m realizing that most of the characterization of the sailor scouts (aside from Sailor Moon herself) came from those filler episodes. Overall it feels like they have a little less personality in the manga as a result.
Finished Jujutsu Kaisen. It was overall good, but in the end the author cared way too much about his power system and not enough about the characters. One of the few epilogue chapters was dedicated almost entirely to ramblings about simple domain that nobody really cared about at that point for example.
