Kinato's Magic - Damn, it’s an interesting arc, but one big thing I don’t like is why the hell didn’t they bring Linae along? She wasn’t in the last city either.

Is the author really gonna split the characters’ screen time like this?

A tradition topic where I ask this at least every 6 months. Here's the previous ones, October 2025, April 2024,  June 2021, September 2020. Women from series that was in the magazine from April 2025 to present. Whether they're Heroes, Villains, Neutral, doesn't matter. This list is in no order, just names that immediately pop into my brain. Mine are:

  1. Desscaras (Ichi The Witch)
  2. Osaragi (SakaDays)
  3. Kasasagi (Shinobi Undercover)
  4. Kaminagi (Kinato's Magic)
  5. Kiri (Kagurabachi)
  6. Mukudori (Shinobi Undercover)
  7. Chiwako Oshimori (Under Doctor)
  8. Uran (Kagurabachi)
  9. Nue (Nue's Exorcist)
  10. Yuka Okkotsu (JJK Modulo)

HM: Akane Osaki (Akane-banashi), Chinatsu Kano (Blue Box), Etupirko (Otr Of The Flame), Hero Girl (Hero Girl & Demon Lord), Hibari (Shinobi Undercover), Kinpa Yobana (Astro Royale), Long-Armed Kamunabi Traitor (KGB), Lu Xiaotang (SakaDays), Suzume (Shinobi Undercover), Yamato (One Piece)

Manga with good bonus content.

Is there any currently running manga where the volume release has good bonus content? Like concept art, character and story detailed or answering questions like One Piece's SBS? Or exclusive bonus manga. I always get let down when I get a manga physically and there's just nothing between the chapters. I was hoping Ichi the Witch or Ultimate exorcist have something to justify buying them after already reading them online, feel free to include any Jump+ or manga+ series as long as they're out in English.

The last double volume release for a new mangaka was Takamagahara. It has never been more over.

I don't think Alien Headbutt is as bad as Takamagahara tho. It's a shame it got treated like this.

Also, attached is a scene from chapter 1 of Takamagahara.

Where the love for Alien Headbutt?

Am I the only one who absolutely love this manga? It’s not too unique of a plot but it’s still very interesting. I am actually digging the linear storytelling and it just feels like a spin on typical apocalypse storylines. I also like the characters type, art design, and the power system. Over all, I think it’s the strongest out of the new batch of manga and thought it had serious potential with the introduction of intelligent enemies rather than just aliens.

For new manga, which seems easier to execute successfully: a manga with a unique premise from the start or a manga with a simple premise that builds and develops over time?

I'm curious since it looks like Alien Headbutt will go the way of Star of Beethoven, Dear Anemone, Ping Pong Peril, and others with a unique premise that didn't make cut.

  • Mashle: Muscles & Magic (1F) (2A)

Once again thank you all who participated I deeply appreciate it and I'm glad it resulted in this unique and fun roster.

One thing though, a lot of people were asking if DLC is planned and even though if anything I was gonna make a sequel to draft stages, one per series, if this gets over 50 upvotes I might do both. I'd Allow assist to be promoted to fighters, a few new series for DLC, and some DLC assist so if your interested please show me and I'll be down for it.

This has easily been the most fun and enjoyable roster I've built even though there are definitely some problems with it. Like having more than 20 series is already kinda unrealistic since they'd prioritize having big names over smaller series, couple that with despite the large roster size for this not a single sports rep was included is kinda odd but I still loved how this turned out.

Thank you
