Pick of the Week: We Love Viz

SEAN: I mean, can I pick Viz’s releases as a unit? If not, I will certainly pick My Hero Academia as a unit. With Vol. 18 of the main series (which wraps up the “Overhaul” arc), the 4th Vigilantes, and the debut of the light novels, there’s enough here to satisfy any fan.

ASH: Viz really has most of my attention this week, too! But as previously mentioned, it’s the Shojo Beat fantasy titles that are holding my heart. If I can only pick one of them it would be Yona of the Dawn, but I’m also very much enjoying The Water Dragon’s Bride.

MICHELLE: Oh, man. Decisions! I really do love both of the shoujo titles singled out by Ash, but my Academia love knows no bounds. Ultimately, I have to go with “What Sean said.”

KATE: I won’t lie: The Promised Neverland is 100% pure manga crack, and I’m jonesing for my next fix. The story gets darker with every turn, but Emma’s pluck, brains, and heart make me optimistic that at least SOME of the escapees will eventually find their way to safety.

ANNA: I’m with Ash, Viz’s shoujo fantasy titles are always something to celebrate.

MJ: I’m going to go with the latest volume of Ao Haru Ride! I feel like I should be on the Promised Neverland bandwagon, but I’m a sucker for Viz shoujo, so here we are.
