pickOh Sy-on boy... Kid just can't catch a break and he's trying so hard to get some recognition and some time and love from his dad, which from earlier volumes hinted that he hadn't had in some time so it was nice how much of this volume was Damian.
I love that the comedy is still there even with the other chapters focusing on Bond, Yuri, and Yor even , as we get to see some behind the scenes of his work filled days.
pickThis series really is a lot of fun and the manga made me laugh out loud several times. Of course, I worried about the cute German Shepherd Dog, but Pooch also gets a Happy End 🐶 The bonus comic is just as cute. Can't wait for more adventures with Anya and Bond.

pickI'm still in love with Anya and her attempts to befriend that kid, because her expressions are priceless. Yuri is still being weirdly creepy and I hope they talk about that at some point in the series because it's a bit worrisome as I'm cheering on Twilight. Which talking about, the new character of Fiona, is throwing an odd wrench into the current setup but let's see where that goes before I make up my mind.
pickJoJo‘s Bizarre Adventure: Part 7, Steel Ball Run, is a masterpiece of storytelling and art. Set in a gritty, unpredictable Wild West, it reinvents the series with stunning characters, emotional depth, and a magnetic rivalry between Johnny Joestar and Gyro Zeppeli. The narrative flawlessly balances bizarre Stand battles with philosophical introspection, making every chapter riveting. It‘s peak JoJo—Araki at his absolute best.
so-soThe sillyness continues. Didn't care for the one story with the tutor fearing his wife, seems to cut pretty close to making light of domestic abuse. The 'Yor needs to invent marital problems' side plot exhausts me. The main arc in this book definitely feels like it's been cut off to make way for the next book, but am I wrong in thinking that's a manga staple? 1/2
We hope you enjoy this fourth-wall-breaking moment. 😁
I got on 'Nessa's choice' on my #BookishMonopoly and what did she choose? Yes, you guessed right 😄

I've been on a roll with spy stories so thought I'd get to this one that has been in my tbr for some time. Fun story about a 14 year old recruited by MI6. Lots of action, and a character you can like.
