I've reached the current chapter of the Beelzebub manga (ch. 139). The grand finale with Oga fighting Jabberwock was not so grand - it was sort of disappointing. So I suppose it's nice to see something more lighthearted and comedic, like Hilda losing her memories.

The formula, again, like many other elements in the manga, is a tried and tested story line twist that wreaks a lot of ridiculous situations. Interestingly, the chapter went from cover to finish without an over-the-top joke...

Warning to anime-only fans, spoilers ahead.

Hunter X Hunter's manga perked up quite a bit after Killua went to his Dad to ask to see Alluka, his little sister. Frankly I'm relieved that the plot is picking up - the Zodiacs and Pariston are interesting, and Ging's antics are both ludicrous and impressive, but the best plot line development thus far in the current arc is the one involving Killua and Alluka.

I was concerned how the manga would fare without the main protaGONist....
