Another week in the books. Let's chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.

Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).

I apologize for the delayed creation of this post, but my workload continues to be a bit insane. Here are some series I wanted to mention this week:

A Failure as an Idol / Idol Shikkaku

Not sure where this one is going yet. It is about an idol and her biggest fan, but unlike Damedol, everybody is majorly depressed. It has been a slow buildup, but I am willing to stick with this one for a bit to see how it goes after the most recent chapter.

Will You Marry Me Because I Quit Being an Idol? / Idol Yamerukedo Kekkon Shitekuremasu Ka!?

I hadn't planned on there being an idol theme to my post this week, but I have enjoyed the first couple chapters of this one. It's not really treading new ground in the romcom space, but it is at least an adult romance that has their characters act like adults. They have to do things like plan around a work schedule for instance. It felt quite real when a dramatic thing happened once and the MC was basically like, I can't deal with this now, I have to get to work, let's circle back to it this evening...and then everybody involved did just that.

[Munching Away] The Exiled Young Lady's Skill of "Becoming Stronger by Eating Monsters" was an Unprecedented Strongest Skill Where she Levels Up with Every Meal. She Became the Strongest in Humanity in Three Days! / [Pakupaku desu wa] Tsuihousareta Ojou-sama no "Monster wo Taberu Hodo Tsuyoku Naru" Skill wa, 1-shoku de 1 Level Up suru Zendaimimon no Saikyou Skill deshita. 3-nichi de Jinrui Saikyou ni narimashita wa~!

Only one chapter translated so far and I enjoyed it. I am hoping for more soon. The raws are currently partway through chapter 18, so there is content out there for our intrepid TL. I think the funniest part of this one to me is how the monsters become these equisitely prepared dishes for her to eat. I am kind of hoping that those nice prepared plates are just in her perception and she is actually just munching down on monster corpses from everybody else's perspective.
