[ This post is entirely based on the stuff that I find to be promising from the current week, not a best of or highlights of the week list. The rest of the stuff I didn't find interesting due to preferences based on my taste and so this is solely my view. ]
Series : Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction Vol. 6
Story & Art : Inio Asano
Publisher : Viz Media LLC
Synopsis :
The collaboration between S.E.S. and the Self-Defense Forces is going beautifully. Fujin Type 9s patrol the streets of Tokyo, and the slaughter of the Invaders is at an all-time high. It’s almost enough to distract the populace from the ominous smoke coming from the mother ship!
Meanwhile, Kadode is getting used to having an Invader living in her apartment. His delicious cooking almost makes up for the stress of dealing with the constant threat of vigilante exterminators taking him down right in front of her eyes!
[ Another seinen from the creator of 'Solanin' and 'Oyasumi Punpun'. Worth checking out for sure. ]
Series : Fire Punch Vol. 7
Story & Art : Tatsuki Fujimoto
Publisher : Viz Media LLC
Synopsis :
In a frozen dystopia where inhabitants eat flesh to survive, can the destructive powers of fire bring salvation?
In the not-too-distant past, the Ice Witch blankets the world in snow, starvation, and madness, leading the inhabitants to seek their salvation in fire. With that, an unusual destiny unfolds for two young orphans, Agni and Luna, blessed with the ability to regenerate. But will this ability prove to be more of a curse than a blessing?
With his promise to Tena imprinted on his mind, Agni can only enjoy an inauthentic peace coated thickly with lies. His existence blames, tortures and undermines him, becoming an affliction worse than the anger, pain and madness he’d experienced as Fire Punch. As Agni searches desperately for an escape from this hell, an old friend suddenly appears.
[ I have been quite interested in this series since I first heard about it. Now it's almost finished being translated, time to start on reading. ]
Series : Terra Formars Vol. 21
Story : Yu Sasuga
Art : Ken-ichi Tachibana
Publisher : Viz Media LLC
Synopsis :
Humanity’s attempt to terraform and colonize Mars goes horribly wrong.
In the late 26th century, overpopulation on Earth is reaching the breaking point, and humanity must find new frontiers. The terraforming of Mars has taken centuries but is now complete. The colonization of Mars by humanity is an epoch-making event, but an unintended side effect of the terraforming process unleashes a horror no one could ever have imagined…
The Terraformars have infested Japan and the war for Earth is on! The aliens have evolved and so have Earth’s warriors, striking back against the invaders in new and powerful ways. As Japanese and American fighters and soldiers face the onslaught, Michelle sets out on a mission to take Shokichi away from General Kai…
[ Another series I have known about for a long time. Should be action-packed and fun. ]
Series : Altair: A Record of Battles Vol. 11
Story & Art : Kotono Kato
Publisher : Kodansha Comics
Synopsis :
In a fevered effort to rally allies and thwart the Empire’s advance, Mahmut continues his campaign south to the mercenary metropolis of Tauro! The city’s seasoned soldiers would bolster the Tripartite’s force tremendously. However, if Mahmut is to win over Tauro’s twin mayors, he must first defeat them in a perilous mock battle! Wielding his wit and military finesse, can the Golden Eagle break the Bull?!
[ A shounen with a very unique and interesting setting, the reviews are very positive as well. ]
