The art is really good especially for the main cover pages and even some scenes, Noshiro looks amazing. Anyway good chapter at least for some background and exploring how familiar and friendly they are too each other. Though wonder why Noshiro wouldn't give him his email address if he is doing all this, taking care of him while he is sick as well as even kissing....

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

That dialogue is fucking gross.
It's probably his turn to clean!

Shonen = moe moe
Shojo = noodle people
Watch the anime, it's has a much more tolerable design.
Aoi Hana and Wandering Son are wonderful manga.

I think it has been a okay year for OP Punk Hazard is has been fun and it set up a fair amount of stuff . ( it's 40 chapters already )
It has few pacing problems but they not going to be as bad in Vol format .
Naruto was okay at the start of the year but it got worst , so all i waiting for is this arc to done .
Bleach was not that great and the start of the year but has gotten good so i looking forward to see how thing go from here .
The anime art is better but if you want to know what happens after it you got stick it out with the manga art which not that great .

Oh no
Oh no
But they are like extra ugly and the art style doesn't appear to imporve when looking at newer chapters and older ones.
From the pictures I'm looking at the girl looks a bit better but the guys are still ugly.
Indigo Blue, Free Soul and Love My Life.
I would definitely recommend watching the anime though, it's funny as hell and Kyoko is one of my favorite shojo heroines ever.
Don't exaggerate.
It's not that fast
Confession time: I've never watched Madoka. I should get on that.
I should get on a lot of things, now that I think about it.

I've only casually read Naruto and Bleach during the entire year and only started reading other manga in the last two weeks, so I can't really make a MOTY list or anything like that. However, In that short time I've read several manga or caught up to some still running manga. This is basically the list with some comments, in the order from best to worst:
Green Blood really grabbed me and combined with that fantastic art, it's definitely my personal manga of the year(/last two weeks).
Onepunch Man got way too many laughs out of me and I see it as the shonen that shits on other typical shonen in some regards. No drawn out fights, no drama, no boring background story, just not that serious at all. It's nice and refreshing.
This is me during every One Piece flashback:
Molester Man, oh Molester Man. What a ride that was. Reading this with you guys, sharing the laughs, the tears, hoping for the best or worst and enjoying the ending all together. And this is why the manga is only third on this list. Looking back, the manga is pretty much just a cute romance story and reading all chapter in one sitting just wouldn't have that impact.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 1 & Volume 1 of Part 2 has its moments and I like the combination of the ridiculous moments and the art, but so far I wouldn't even say it's a must read for me. I'll try to read the rest as well (will definitely finish part 2), but it's not unlikely that I'll drop it around part 3, if the suggested drop in quality is true.
I can't say much about Onani Master Kurosawa yet, since I've only read 9 chapters so far. I kinda like it, but I don't get the hype yet, which is not surprising, because I'm not even halfway through it. In a way it seems like a Death Note parody, which would make this really hilarious. Will definitely finish it.
TWGOK hasn't amazed me either and I just read it to catch up with it (chapter 192-213). I really don't like the current arc and I hope it finishes soon. But maybe it has worn out its welcome and it just starts to bore me. Keima's shtick (omg need to play vidja games and I love 2d girls!) has become old and the story around hell, the (boring) goddesses and vintage is just not that interesting anymore.
I'm trying to catch up with One Piece right now (chapter 645-671), but I just can't read more than 5 chapters in a row. It's just too much of a drag, really boring and I wish they'd just move on (and leave Franky and Chopper behind, if possible). Punk Hazard is simply boring.
Blue Heaven was on my old reading list. I think someone suggested it last year, when I asked for some horror. And while it's not long, I can't recommend it at all. It starts out good and then falls off a cliff pretty quickly.
I still don't know why I read all 117 chapters of Wolf Guy guy in one sitting. I just hope it didn't leave some permanent damage. It's a shame that the artist wastes his time with trash like that. He should find a competent writer.

I've yet to see a reason to consider Kumagawa a good character, and no, stupid Nisio Isin writing doesn't count. "Bu bu but this character has a quadrillion powers/can do whatever they want/etc, that means it's awesome right?" No it just means you're still stuck in the sandbox with the 5 year olds and still think that actually means something.
While unlike the rest of you I don't continue to read stuff that is bad or that I don't enjoy, I still flip through the occasional OP chapter to see if it has gotten better (it hasn't).
And yes, I know that's the whole deal about Medaka Box, Nisio pulling random stuff out of his ass, but that doesn't mean it's particularly well executed in many cases, Kumagawa being the prime example.
He's batshit insane and likes to troll the shit out of everyone because he's a born loser. And he has an unrivalled taste for female clothing.

Well damn, somebody's insecure.

KHR, had an amazing final arc at start, but the end, oh man, the reveal sucked so much, and the end was a fluff piece about Tsuna being the same person as in chapter one. At least i´m glad that he did not chose Kuyoko.
Not enjoying poor writing = insecurity? Thanks for letting me know

It's really a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation, since if I constantly read One Piece it's just an unpleasant experience, and if I say One Piece is bad without reading it the inevitable complaints arise.

Its almost like i got transported to the anime thread LOL
Fortunately the anime thread generally has less OP discussion

Hahahaha.
At least there haven't been any Big One rants in a while!
Er, wait.
Huh?
That's also not why anyone likes Kumagawa (or, rather, Ajimu/Anshin'in).

Oh hey, that thing everyone predicted a long-ass time ago finally got confirmed.
Only 3 chapters to go. This is going to have such a bad ending

it usually have less discussion about stuff like that anyway (Shonen is a nono unless your are cosmicblizzard LOL).
I haven't watched any anime for a long while so i've not being in that thread like before. Maybe one day when i get enough free time to knock out some eps

It's not really flawed Angry Grimace does it .
The only time he talks OP is when we talking about manga as a whole .
Most people don't comment on stuff they don't read or like .
OP has it's own anime thread so that should not be surprising.
Also edit was mistake want to add part about Angry Grimace .
To many pages open .
I don't have a problem with you not liking Kumagawa and Ajimu, but I don't know why you always act like people like them because they're broken and all powerful.
We like them because we find them entertaining. They entertain me more than any other character in Medaka Box and most of the time them being entertaining has nothing to do with what you bring up.
