I believe it's chapter 42, which will overlap with the ending a little, but there are a few details different.
And I will also recommended you end at chapter 80 instead of going all the way to the end of the manga as the manga never did get finished and 80 is about the best stopping point I can think of for it for what we have, but I doubt you will be able to resist the few more chapters you have :P
I will also note that reading before 42 wouldn't be the worst as a lot of chapters have bonus bits that cross over with the author's previous work and other extra info and what not via Junko's room.
I wish you luck at stopping at 80... it may be the best logical stopping point, but... ^^;
I'm quite curious to hear what you think, as no one else that I got to watch Nana this year was brave enough to venture into the manga knowing it's unfinished.
Though I didn't realize that there was basically enough content for a sequel series of equal length in the manga.
I have actually been reading it for a couple of days now. I am in the mid 50s.
Takumi's a bastard and it is painful to see Hachi double down on her poor life choices. :)
I was already sold on Fujimoto after Look Back, but jesus christ, endgame Chainsaw Man is a conceptual mindfuck.
Also one of the few manga I've read that has really started fucking with the format (though to be fair I don't think I read particularly widely)
YUP
I finished it well over a month ago and I still think about it on a near daily basis.
I read it at the start of this year.
I have no idea what my life would be like if I watched that CSM trailer first.
The trailer made me more interesting in reading the manga. Watching the trailer again after finishing the manga, you get a better appreciation for what the trailer is doing.
I can see how Chainsaw Man can be hard to get into at the start.
The whole thing about Denji wanting to touch boobs is a bit grating, but thankfully it wasn't dragged out for too long, and the punchline was hilarious.
After that, it's smooth sailing.

I have a pack of Chainsaw Man, but I need to wait for 6, 9, and 10 Vol. to come delivery at my house so I can binge it. Y'all are getting my excitement up for read it, lol.

Wait, where was I when this was announced? I know there's been plenty of Zelda manga before, but I didn't know about a Twilight Princess manga that's been going for almost six years.

A requiem for the anguished, lost, and wandering in life over 50.
With Japan entering a new era, the story centers on Shiosawa, a former manga editor for a major publisher. After going into early retirement, he now finds himself wondering about what the world of manga means to him: is it work, a form of expression, or friendship?
Also ranked #1 in this year's Kono Manga ga Sugoi
2. Look Back by Tatsuki Fujimoto (Chainsaw Man)
Fujino is a fourth grader who draws a manga strip for the school newspaper. Her art makes her the star of the class, but one day she's told that Kyomoto, a student who refuses to come to school, would also like to submit a manga for the paper...

The protagonist, Rafal, a child prodigy, is expected to major in theology, the most important subject at the time, at the university where he plans to skip a grade. One day, however, a mysterious man appears at Raphau's door, and he is studying a certain "truth" in the midst of heretical thought!

It's super cute, and the art is perfect for SoL. I need to read more.
I finally understood how to use the secret BakaUpdates (MangaUpdates) advanced search filtering options! (I'll be using BakaUpdates from here on out.)
You know how when you look at any entry in BakaUpdates, there is a list of categories that this entry belongs to. Categories include things like "Magical Girl/s", or "Swordsplay" and such.
In the URL, we can add or append these category criteria as the query string like so:
But I've always wondered, how do I concatenate multiple categories together, so I can narrow down my search filters? The answer to this question has eluded me for many months.... until now!
Use the underscore!
This is how you concatenate multiple categories together. I can specify a lot of these categories together now. And now I wanted to share my findings.
I don't know where else you can do in the webpages to concatenate categories like so... so it seems you have to type it into the URL to get the results you want.

Never read a full chapter of this until today, just reading the comments about it on reddit is entertaining enough for me
But this one kicked up enough of a fuss that I had to read and wow, pretty impressive of this mangaka to test the limits of how much shit their audience is willing to put up with lol

Shaman King 1-300 END
Well, I'm glad that the Kanzenban editions were a thing, I had to find the original ch 285 to see where the story originally ended and yeah, that was not a good stopping place, but looks like the mangaka was burnt out by this point :/ Really glad that more chapters were added years later to give a more definitive ending (even if it wasn't the best, it's better than where the stopping point was originally!) I remember reading Shaman King back when I bought the first few years of the original Shonen Jump english print books, and at the time, I was way more into Naruto and One Piece. Reading through it all now, and I actually enjoyed it much more than I did all those years back and had a lot of fun with it! I'll probably read some of the spin-offs/sequels at some point, but nice that all 35 volumes were 'free' via Comixology. But yeah, guess it's time now to get to the Netflix anime at some point (and will also pick up the subbed blu ray from Discotek, whenever that becomes available, with only the dub version currently out).

The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess Manga Will End With The Next Chapter
It's been going since 2016
Wait, where was I when this was announced? I know there's been plenty of Zelda manga before, but I didn't know about a Twilight Princess manga that's been going for almost six years.
I've been seeing the volumes in book stores for years but never got around to checking it out. Might do so as it's ending.
They did a nice hardcover of the Ocarina series this team did from what I could see. Hopefully they do something like that for this one too.
MC is about to confess to heroine. She knows this, is unsure/afraid of her feelings and runs away before he can say anything. MC in shambles. Goes to the pool and imagines the heroine have surprisingly graphic sex with her guy friend for 8 PAGES. Last few panels shows the MC crying while having an erection.
This is all in a shonen magazine btw.
It's been trash for a while (slow pacing, no relationship progress, garbage characters), but this is the first time the series ever went this far. Reason everyone is talking about it is because its so unexpected.
I guess the author and editor was looking for shock value to get people talking about the series again. It worked.
It's so bad that I feel dirty even knowing it. I just read it because I'd heard the rumors and boy oh boy. A friend gave me some context on what's going on in the arc that makes it even worse. lol
Basically the MC thinks he got dumped and spends the chapter wallowing in self-pity and imagining his crush (who is currently running around trying to save his ass from his insane ex) getting her back absolutely blown out by some random dude (softcore porn style). Also it gives him a boner and he cries.
What kind of insane person would even conceive of such a chapter. Then there's the editors and assistants who all rubber stamped it. It's some straight up nutcase shit.
Yeah, I do not comprehend how editors were down, but I guess it gets people talking and potentially picking up the magazine to see it.
A chapter so bad it became a meme.
I only know about RaG from hearing anime folks talk about the adaptation a couple years ago. Didn't really care about it.
*anime came out in 2020* .... Fuck you!
