Dear Readers,
Here we are, at more than four months since my last manga review. As always, you can blame the pandemic, my own lack of time to spend at the bookstore, and my local library system being too slow to get in anything actually good half the time.
But all is not lost: I come bearing news related to some of my favorite series, ones that I have even mentioned before on this blog!
1. Spy X Family has recently gotten an anime! It's true! You can find it online in both subbed and Funimation dubbed format, depending on where you look.
And, if you're one of those people who likes to try things out before you buy them, like myself, there are plenty of free clips available on Youtube.
I have been following the series in the official English-language Shonen Jump manga format ever since Vol. 1 and, I must say, it has yet to disappoint me, even up to the current latest release of Vol. 7.
2. Both Black Clover and My Hero Academia are nearing their ends. This news leaves me with a heavy heart, as I have blogged postings extolling the series since their first volumes released on our shores.
I follow the manga of My Hero Academia every week on the Shonen Jump website, but for Black Clover I have only been following the Funimation English-dubbed release on Toonami. (I felt as though I had no choice at the time, given how quickly the anime overtook the English release of the manga.)
My point is that I can only pontificate on the current state of the manga for My Hero Academia. Months after the greatest war we readers have ever seen, the villainous All For One continues to warp/fuse together with his protege, Tomura Shigaraki, the Symbol of Fear. Izuku has been betrayed, found a new ally, and is currently teleported away from the main battle.
Meanwhile, Dabi's past is revealed as he faces Todoroki, and Shigaraki's power continues mutating and growing out of control.
I mean, we know that Izuku will survive and go on not only to narrate the story, but also to "become the greatest hero in the world", but he and his friends are still facing an uphill battle.
But at least Black Clover is taking a three-month hiatus in order to work on their final arc. Academia, however, looks like it's going to be a doozy.
3. Do you readers remember when I said that I had found a site with free translations of the One Piece In Love ("Koisuru One Piece") manga, but I didn't have the link for you?
Well, now I do! And here it is: https://scansofmetsudo.weebly.com/one-piece-in-love.html
Boy, do I sure hope that works!
The link above should take you to the work of a dedicated fan who, with his friends, has managed to translate all of the manga's Volume 1 chapters and one or two of Volume 2's.
Well, readers, that's all for now. But please, stay with me and, with luck, I will once again one day have new manga reviews, written just for you!
