The President's Day issue! Here are my thoughts...
Bakuman - Those color pages look epic! Especially that spread! While I love manga in physical form, seeing it backlight takes the colors to a whole different level. I also like where the story is headed! Looks like their dreams are finally happening! Amazing drawing of an obsessed otaku. Hope I never get like that! = )
Toriko - As a huge fan of nature specials, I love the animals in this series. Shimabukuro has a real talent for drawing crazy creatures and this chapter's full of cool aquatic monters. Some clever wordplay too - Chowlin Temple. Genius!
One Piece - Looks like a new adventure's getting underway! A forbidden island of Samurai! Should be interesting to see how Oda draws them. I'm kind of obsessed with "Transponder Snails." Dunno why, but I just love the technology! And this weeks chapter has some hilarious transponder snail bits. I want one!
Naruto - WOWOWOWOW! We get to learn more about the biju! I've always been fascinated with them, because we know so little about them, but in this chapter you'll learn a whole lot more. Cool stuff.
Bleach - Another touching chapter! Looks like the new arc should be taking off soon.
Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan - Cool battle! Can't go wrong with a battle featuring yokai and an army of undead! Great art as usual, I really enjoy seeing all the skeletons together. Always been a fan of skeleton armies. What's not to like!
Anyway, what did y'all think?

I really like Toriko and Nura
I really like Toriko and Nura. Even if they have a smaller fan following than something like Bakuman or Bleach, they should stay in the magazine. Nothing should be rotated in or out of the magazine, but more stuff should be added, such as random one-shots.
*Insert obligatory request to add Reborn! to the magazine here*
Agreed
I totally agree with brown about this weeks chapters but i feel like I'm losing Toriko :(
It doesn't make sense that
It doesn't make sense that Viz would take out stuff that they're already publishing in graphic novel format anyway. They have to translate the chapters one way or another, so why not?
BUT we need more series.
I agree we need more series...
We're trying our darndest to convince our betters, but they don't always listen to lowly life forms like us. If I was in charge there'd be free ice cream with every issue!
