What do you view as "comfy"? A good enough, inoffensive shonen? A wholesome romance?
100 Girlfriends 64-65
I just caught up with this a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed it. Then immediately after the next girl that's introduced is like a foot taller than the protag and I'm like "is this a thank you gift to me for reading?"
Anyway in this chapter 14 girls who are all not-married to the same dude and call themselves a "family" wear matching long dresses and farm vegetables. Definitely not a cult.

Yotsuba: good slice of life look at a 5 year old enjoying life (15 volumes so far)
Shinmai Shinmai no Futari Gohan: fluffy cooking manga about step sisters (6 volumes so far)
Horimiya: great romcom that doesn't fall for the usual tropes and spends a decent time developing the cast and interpersonal relationships (completed—16 volumes)
A Rare Marriage: How to Grill our Love: focuses on a newlywed couple who enjoy grilling meat (34 chapters)
you shouldn't do that
I remember when someone recommended this series to me months back, and I was just like nah, that looks bad. I don't think I'll join the trash reading train. haha
Harta takes breaks in January and July each year (always have), but the past couple years, they started publishing big things on their break months. For this month, they're doing this big shiny anthology called Terang. I believe it's 20 one-shots, and many of the mangaka are new to Harta. I hope they pick up some talent and get a new big hit, because I'm still sad about the creation of Aokishi, the new Kadokawa magazine that took A Bride's Story and Go with the Clouds, North-by-Northwest away from Harta.
You can see previews of the one-shots in the thread. Lots of cool looking stuff!

Fujimoto's new one-shot is up at Viz (and I assume MangaPlus). Clear your schedule because it's a big one.

It's legitimately the worst thing I've ever read.
Look Back (by Tatsuki Fujimoto)
This almost seems biographical. Like it's based on someone Fujimoto knew, or it's based on himself.
The massacre part does remind me of the KyoAni arson. Crazy guy thought his work was being stolen so he attacked the people he believed responsible.

This made me curious about what would be the worst one I've read. I gave A Town Where You Live and Devil's Ecstasy 2/10, apparently. The only 1/10 is Kuso Miso Technique, which I read years back for the memes (I dressed like the guy with a mask for Halloween in Tokyo one year haha).

Mine is Shuumatsu no Tenki, although I've only scored stuff that I've actually completed
Look Back
It's almost 11PM here and my heart is broken now :(
Can't wait for Chainsawman Part 2 to make my heart broken all over again.

Cant believe we're already nearly 30 chapters in.
Love the shop owner personality. Cant wait to see how it says he did it.

Definitely one of the most epic chapters yet.
Magu Chan 52
Une-san for the win proving once again shes the best of the gods. Izuma FTW.
Neru 3
A little messy but otherwise liked what happened. Entrance exam though, guess its following the HeroAcademia and HxH path.
Anyway, Shinra has competition.

Misaki is so honest.
I also loved the entire discussion and the classmates response.
Also the invitation to switch sides, he really felt sorry for Misaki, sad.
I'm still sad Misaki is trapped in this going to be cancelled manga. He was great.
Good humor this week.

Damn... I feel awful now. That was amazing.

I'm gonna fucking cry now.
Thanks for the shouts, everyone! I'm excited to get to these :)
That's a good question! The series I was reading that prompted the question was definitely a wholesome romance, but really anything with positive, low-key vibes is what I'm looking for. Something like Yokohama Kaidashi Kiko works too, where it's just a pretty positive character going around and seeing their slice of the world.
Magu-chan is about a year in and it's a supernatural comedy with some genuine sweetness and heart behind it.
Witch Watch 23
Oh nice, Kan got to at least do something. Wish he wasn't left on home duty :(
Ayakashi Triangle 53
Ritta is back, best boy. Wonder if the writer will have him peak in/intrude again. Actually did go back to chapter 14 to reread.
Mashle 71
I think the writing will probably always keep this from being in the upper echelon of jump series as some part of it are nothing outstanding, and maybe like the end of the witch watch chapter, felt like the writer could have easily cut two or four of the ending pages. When the enemies face was deforming right after taking space magic for example, he should have left then, not stayed around and then left two pages later.

I'm obviously not recommending it lol. It has a scumbag MC and the writing is all over the place. I think I finished it only because it's kinda short
Blue box
I really liked this date, Taiki is still too nervous, but he can pull nice moves in clutch, the sticker thing was really cut, specially that she used it instantly
Look Back
Even if it is short and closed, really good and I think even better than all of Fujimoto past works, that isnt an easy feat
I love the references to his part works too

Yugami-kun doesn't have any friends (completed)
Psuedo Harem (completed)
One Point Advice Yankee (ongoing)
Shikimori's Not Just A Cutie (ongoing)
Honestly think Look Back is one of my favorite things I've read this year out of prose, poetry, and comics.
Dr. Stone 205
Thats a really long break, guess they have to figure out how to make computer chips and monitors in the stone world so they need extra time.
Sai and Ryusui are good.

Very heavy one shot/it definitely felt like the author was pulling from real events.
Sakamoto Days 32
with Shin's backstory I'm glad he gets to have a family to let him experience things like his first public bath, wonder if he's a fan after all that happened.
Blue Box 14
Uninteresting chapter. Needs high drama and suspension/tension.

At least we're finally leaving this place, really think we could have done this in three chapters not four.
Unsure if chemical infused weapons is all that interesting here in a world of magic. Seems very uninteresting.
Shokugeki no Sanji 3
Would easily give up Chopper, Franky, Jimbei, Brook, and Usopp if we could have Viva in the crew all the time. Best.
Also the left outfit is the best outfit.

RightStuf needs to hurry up and restocking Chainsaw Man volumes already. I'm so tired seeing the "pending" on my orders that long. -_-
