I am sure the twins are just young and will have time to grow as the story moves on (unless they are there as a conflict to show not everyone can be as mature.) :)
A Bride's Story and Emma are recommended reads by Kaoru Mori. IMO time & marriage will help to mature the (A Bride's Story) twins. Currently re-reading Eyeshield 21, continuing Kekkaishi as a library read, and just re-read Whistle!

I am currently reading
the short story collection of stories in the world of Ancient Magus' Bride, I have the manga to read and the spin off manga from the short stories to read.
I just finished the 2nd of 2 volumes covering HP Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness" story.
I am not reading any manga currently, but i think i will start volume 7 of Vampire Knight, volume 4 of Attack on titan, volume 9 of A Bride's Story or volume 3 of The Ancient Magus' Bride
A little bit slice of life, a little bit magical adventure, and a whole lot of darkness as a bullied girl makes a wish for friends and is cast into a world where fairy tales are real but not in the happily ever after way.
I have been reading My Hero Academia and am looking for new Manga to pick up and read.
Dylan wrote: "I have been reading My Hero Academia and am looking for new Manga to pick up and read."Have you tried Assassination Classroom, Vol. 01 yet? A powerful nigh indestructible creature is giving everyone a chance to kill him before a deadline that will mean the end of Earth. In the mean time he passes his time as a teacher to a group of students with no hope for a future. Being another Viz title it is the same price as My Hero Academia and there is plenty of laughs and actions in this one (along with some feels in the end.)
In addition to that I can verify One Punch Man and One Piece are good titles and would also like to throw in Black Butler, Vol. 1 and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, Vol. 1. If you don't mind romance then a popular fantasy title is Yona of the Dawn, Vol. 1 which also has its mix of goofy and serious moments.
I am currently using Kindle Unlimited to try and read several of the manga from my TBR List and am currently reading
Say I Love You. 3 with it and just read
Aoba-kun's Confessions, Vol. 5.I am also reading
The Misfit of Demon King Academy 03: History's Strongest Demon King Reincarnates and Goes to School with His Descendants through my Library.

Doc wrote: "Chelsea wrote: "I am currently using Kindle Unlimited to try and read several of the manga from my TBR List and am currently reading [book:Say I Love You. 3|23..."I have a 2 month subscription that ends at the end of the month so I figured I would try to get as much reading done as I can although I have other genres I have books to read from too that I am neglecting. I started a Goodreads shelf to keep my KU TBR Manga on so it will be easier to keep track.
I also just heard that Kodansha had added a bunch of manga to KU and they had something about it on their website: https://kodanshacomics.com/2021/01/27....
Stay Safe and Happy Reading!
I am also reading off the Shonen Jump App so it is giving me a ton to read. Just started reading Demon Slayer.
I just finished the manga version of "Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Senpai". Very good, imo. Definitely worth a read. The end really makes you want to get out the kleenex.
Right now I'm reading "Even Though We're Adults". Very good. The watercolors are amazing. Same Mangaka as "Sweet Blue Flowers". So far it's good.
I am reading phantom seer at the moment, I am really enjoying it!
Currently reading Raymond E Feist riftwar series😁

Started to read Demon Slayer. Rereading One Piece. Continuing Trinity Seven. And that's it for this week. One Piece still continues to be a rough one to read since it always appear to drag the story a lot. Last week read the first 4 volumes of Spy x Spy Family and it was amazing. Also read the 3 volumes of ChainSaw Man and was a nice surprise. And Gigant!
All in all - nice reads!
Cheers!
I'm currently reading Bungo Stray Dogs and it's SO GOOD 😍
Hello allsince last update:
- Read the last 3 volumes of Blame! (more for the art, since the story is very simple).
- Read the 9 first volumes of Ajin (great story and concept)
- Read the 4 volumes of The Witch and the Beast (nice story)
- Read the 22 volumes of Vinland (amazing books - one of the best manga series)
- And started FullMetal Alchemist (should finish it this week)
All in all - great readings and cannot wait to continue FullMetal Alchemist / Ajin and to start Vagabond and Akira (will go to "classics" next).
Cheers!
Just finished
will be starting
on the weekend
I have recently completed Kitchen Princess, Fullmetal Alchemist, The Gods Lie and Erased which I have very much enjoyed taking the time to read as I adored the characters portrayed.
At the moment I am reading Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou which I find to be a very relaxing read.

Finished re-reading STROBE EDGE; continuing to read BLACK CLOVER, DAYTIME SHOOTING STAR, FLYING WITCH and HAIKYU!!; currently re-reading EYESHIELD 21 and SAILOR MOON.
I'm reading What I Love About You, Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro, Gal Gohan, Spy X Family, and also reading again Bloom Into You for like the 5th time. my favorite all time Yuri story.
I'm currently reading Tokyo Revengers and Jujutsu Kaisen. Sending good wishes to Gege :(I don't count Hunter x Hunter 'cause...yeah.
Currently reading Nodame Cantabile and absolutely love it so far. Just finished Supinamarada!, which I last heard Satoru Noda is redoing because it was unfinished. Looking forward.
I just began Gachiakuta, this is a fresh new shônen, I just read the first volume, and it's basic but I love the universe and the drawing style.
I've been reading My Androgynous Boyfriend, it's not at all what I expected. Super fun so far.

I just read My Happy Marriage 01 and am planning to read volumes 2 & 3 soon before volume 4 is released.

Pretentious love triangles and obnoxious baiting.
What I'm getting so far is pretty wholesome and the manga illustrates the dangers of celebrity/entertainment personas. Our main, Meguru, shuts down any horribly forced gossip to boost their image with fans. Ex: fashion subculture industry, trying to mock the narrative that Meguru is dating another model to feed the shipper fan base. Meguru publicly stays true to their actual relationship and their personal love for fashion and makeup.
Another refreshing element are the fans. Which the majority are actually supportive/understanding characters with a great deal of depth. Not just "the fangirl". Ex: a super-fan of Meguru's was inserted to be a romantic wedge in their relationship but this idea took a very pleasant and unexpected turn. Inspiring self-identification and healthy relationships instead.
Great read so far. :)
I’m finishing up bleach right now, it’s the third manga I’ve read. Enjoying so far hopefully it ends well.
20th Century Boys is amazing. Had to binge because I couldn't stop reading.Currently reading the first Planetes omnibus from Dark Horse.

I considered reading Planetes for no other reason because it is the same mangaka of Vinland Saga. :)

Yes, you're right. :) Vinland Saga has been on my radar for a long time now. I've just been trying to get through manga that's been on my PtW for ages now. What do you like most about Vinland Saga? Planetes is really good so far, very different from the anime.
Vinland Saga starts out being a story about revenge with a really amazing and often graphic art style. However when I really started liking the series was after the story of revenge changed to one of redemption after realizing the emptiness left behind by an all consuming hatred. Throw in an assortment of interesting characters and locations and you have a formula for a fantastic series.So basically the realistic nature and emotions of the characters is what I like most about Vinland Saga. Of course enjoying Norwegian culture doesn't hurt either. :)
Vinland Saga is such an effective Manga! The characters are all endearing and well written, the Viking era is well respected, clashes / war and betrayals as we like...https://www.minimilitia.mobi/ https://www.applock.ooo/

I am loving this series!! Kao..."
Yep! I love most of these characters, but there are still some pretty boring (like the twins) that i do not really like.
