While not every story was a homerun, the main core stories all had me interested. Very ice cream man but not always as dark as I expected. Overall enjoyable and would read another.
The early days of Tim drake as Robin. Some corny ass moments mixed with heartfelt moments. Lots of 90s cheese but somehow entertaining throughout. Worst story was joker.
Really liked this volume. Lots of big reveals, alot more funny moments that worked, people speaking the truth on their feelings. Also...boobies? Always a win.
Alien vs "aliens" is a real fun short one shot. Lots of cool hunting moments, a great ending, solid art. Overall some real good stuff is 28 pages
Gosh this Nagatoro girl is a real asshole. I get the teasing thing is part of the genre but she is such a asshole. Much more of a Bully. Luckily begins to turn around some in the end but she still a ass.
I have a love/hate relationship with this one. Insane guy wanting to create music from the kills of a alien? Just insane enough to get me excited. Ninjas fighting aliens? Uh yes! But the way things come together, rushed pace, and ending leave a lot to be desired.
A cute volume.
Sayu gets a lot more time, and we get a lot deeper into her mind state. Finding out more of what she had to do to survive. On top of that Yoshida gets to shine as not being a loser who takes advantage of a girl in a shitty situation. So plus to that. The series has obvious fanservice but it works for the main character as she's dealing with a traumatic past and dealing with that. I also like the girl Yoshida might be seeing, she's cute and awesome.

So we get a much needed, and pretty fucked up, origin of Shigaraki.
After seeing his past and learning why the leader of the villains is the way he is, you almost feel pity. Almost sad enough to understand why he does this. I mean I expected tragedy with his family but not on the level we got. It's also pretty bloody and then the end result, the new leadership, is leading to some interesting future plots.
The stuff with Deku and crew was cool, nice to see them growing, though the light hearted tone it had going for it was a bit too jarring for me after the excellent mood setter Shigaraki had, making it less appealing to read.
Overall though, some good stuff all around. A 3.5 out of 5.

Another adorable volume.
This time the lovers go to the hot springs. Nasa tries to make his move, as silly as he might be, which leads to some really touching moments. Then we get a really funny chapter of them dealing with their new AC unit and learning to live with it during the night. Too hot? Too cold? The fun only begins when one partner gets hotter than the other during the night.
This is probably one of the most wholesome, fun, and easy going mangas I've ever read and just a joy to read if I want a smile on my face.
A 4.5 out of 5. 5 for pure fun enjoyment.

Equals stupid and fun.
Let me just say Jeri the alien is a great character. Who knew a robotic Alien who smokes Cigars would become a favorite of mine, but here we are. There's also a gigantic robot who murders aliens...so robots are pretty great in this.
The human characters are less desirable. Everyone is kind of shitty, bad, or evil. None of them are that interesting, and they are just not the part I cared about in this story. And sadly they took a good chunk of the story.
So overall a 3 out of 5.
