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).

I have been pretty busy this past week and, with the start of the new anime season, have spent more time on the anime side of things rather than the manga side. So, the backlog has grown quite a bit. However, that is also due to me finding a series that I have been enjoying and working my way through to catch up with the current chapters:

The Moon on a Rainy Night

I have been really enjoying this series as I have worked my way through it (up to about chapter 10 atm). I guess I had been missing a good yuri series ever since I finished up Monthly in the Garden with My Landlord. So far, it has been really good. With one of the leads being mostly deaf, it is a bit serious at times (moreso than Kimi wa Yakamashi Tojite yo Kuchi o! was), but it manages to keep things light enough to not tip over to melodrama territory.

Mato Seihei no Slave / Chained Soldier

I managed to catch up to where the first season of the anime wrapped up. I paused my reading there at the moment since that is about when I found the first series I mentioned above and it kind of sucked up all my time instead. Looking forward to seeing where it goes from here though.

Momose Akira no Hatsukoi Hatan-chuu / Momose Akira's First Love Struggles

This is only a handful of chapters in and has been pretty cute. It doesn't really reinvent the wheel of romcom by any means, but the execution is pretty funny. The ways in which Momose constantly screws up her attempts at romance are pretty original.

moreso than Kimi wa Yakamashi Tojite yo Kuchi o!

I am still salty about it. I loved it so much, and they just had to do that. I'll go back in my corner and shake my head.
