Happy Monday! To celebrate the return of Ruridragon, how about a new general thread! Feel free to talk about things you have read, want to read, want others to read, or want to know more about.

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 think the clear standout is Nagatoro, but that is well over 100 chapters in, so it wouldn’t be quick to catch up.

I've actually watched the anime for that, but the first season only. It didn't really make me compelled to check out its second season, to be honest. But yeah, that wouldn't be an easy one to catch up on anyway.

If you are looking for more general recommendations, I made a comment with some in a previous response to a different user.

Some of those I've seen the anime of or am currently watching the anime of (in the case of Frieren and Dungeon Meshi), but I'll check their descriptions too when I'll be looking for something that's either completed or has a lot of chapters already.

Here are a couple series that are still fairly early in their run that I see at least a couple comments in their chapter threads:

Alright, so all of those sounded interesting lol.

I'm probably going to go with Star Tripper and Ruridragon to start things off. Do we know how often Ruridragon's chapters are expected to come out? I see Star Tripper has pretty consistent releases (3 days ago, 10 days ago, 16 days ago, last month, and so on), but with Ruridragon I can't really tell since it came out of the hiatus so recently that there's only 1 post-hiatus chapter.

Thanks for the recommendations!

Ruridragon is having a weird release schedule right now because it is having a couple chapters released in the magazine and then is transitioning to a digital release format. If I remember correctly, the plan is to have it be every 2 weeks after the transition.

Star Tripper is one of those cases where the raws are significantly ahead of the scanlators, so the releases have been pretty frequent while they catch up, but I am not sure how frequent the raws come out. I am guessing with the length of the chapters and the fairly involved art that it is monthly.
