I highly recommend this if you love fantasy/drama/martial arts manga.

I took your recomendation and read all of this. I enjoyed it quite a bit. I took a short break just before the final story arc, but other than that, it kept me entertained.

On another note, I saw a manga pop up on the site I read it at called Goblin Slayer. It was seemingly like all the other RPG manga/anime series I've seen lately, but it got real dark, real quick. It seemed to rattle me quite quickly which seems odd.

oh wow which projects besides Feng Shen is completed on that site? Loads of downloads, but dunno what to read, but I specifically want completed, preferably long (100+ chapters) mangas.

**DrClout** · 2016-07-02 20:54

EG handles a LOT of Korean/Chinese mangas but I haven't read much of their stuff that's gotten that far. Could try "Legend of Tyr" i loved it

**The Stig** · 2016-07-03 11:29

I see. Do they still read right to left? I was flicking through some random ones while browsing and found some were left to right but I wasn't sure if it was specific.

**DrClout** · 2016-07-03 11:33

Korean/Chinese = right to left

Japanese = left to right

The easiest way for me to tell outside of knowing where its from is context from a few blurbs. If it flows and makes sense then I have the direction correct

Thanks for clarifying. Actually on the random pages I was looking at, it made sense to me both ways hahaha!

**Zealot** · 2016-07-11 11:33

Is there a dedicated Hajime no Ippo thread or should I just talk about it here? Because damn, I have to discuss these story developments.

**Vandalhart** · 2016-07-11 11:39

I think most of the discussion has been in here. I've been pleased with the last dozen or so chapters that came out recently.

**Zealot** · 2016-07-11 11:57

It takes so long to get anywhere! Several chapters in a row with real storyline development is a breath of fresh air. I'm trying not to get my hopes up about any kind of happy ending for Aoki, because every time in the past it's seemed like he might make him and Kimura win something worthwhile they've had the rug pulled out from under them. So much is happening with the title picture now, I can't wait to see what Ippo's next challenge is.

**Vaspinne** · 2016-07-12 01:23

HnI has been going on for decades +_+. 1146 chapters at (over-estimating here) 50 chapters a year is 22 years of manga. Not including any breaks or anything like that. I'm all for some story progression lol. Ippo is still nervous and shy around whatshername for gods sake +_+.

For any fans of Magi (incoming spoilers for those who haven't kept up):

Spoiler: show

**Zealot** · 2016-07-12 16:36

Well the big developments recently, as far as Ippo is concerned, are his pledge to retire if he loses a third time, and Takamura confronting him with the fact that if he doesn't have a real goal to strive for, he'll never succeed in the World. Plus Ippo's realization that Takamura is right and he's not a World-level competitor.

But new Dempsey Roll!

**Vaspinne** · 2016-07-13 00:34

Oh, I'm totally happy with all that stuff. Any progress is good progress. The big problem for me lately is that while Takamura, Kimura and Aoki's fights are enjoyable, Ippo's and Itagaki's have been pretty meh as of late (Ippo's last one against #2 in the world not included, but all the shit leading up to it. Itagaki has always been a boring character to me). And when the bulk of your main character's fights have been really mediocre, you got yourself a problem. But the other 3 have been so good that they're able to carry the manga themselves lol

Japan made a manga about my life at college. Unbelievable.

Read this shit if you want your sides to go into fucking orbit every page. Funniest shit I've seen since Cromartie High.

Nisekoi seems to be wrapping up, if not completely wrapped up.
The latest chapter I read was good, but it left me wanting a little more. I can't tell if it's done or there's a little more to go.

I enjoyed it quite a bit. I was half expecting the author to go the To Love Ru Darkness route (in terms of no choice being made at all).

I've actually started reading Assassin Classroom. I had a completely different idea of what it was in my head. I'm enjoying it immensely.

**Xno Kappa** · 2016-08-04 13:52

Assassin Classroom is a phenomenal manga.

I've sorta dropped Nisekoi a few years back when it became the standard harem affair with no end in sight.

**The Stig** · 2016-08-04 18:26

Whoa whoa whoa, Nisekoi ended??

DID THEY OPEN THE LOCK

OR IS THIS SOME HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER/LOST BULLSHIT

or even worst, is the ending some AND SO LIFE GOES ON (pendant still locked) BULLSHIT?

I stopped at chapter 200 as I didn't want to wait weekly or monthly again. But that was a few months ago, so not to catch up.

Everything was resolved pretty well actually.
