It’s the end of the year so no better time for a best-of (and more importantly worst-of) Shonen Flop awards aka The Floppies. See what manga takes the crown for honors like Best Dad, Best Art, Craziest Ending, and ultimately Best Series. It was a wild year of manga for us including Hard-boiled Cop and Dolphin, Moriking, Build King, and Look Back.

Hi everyone,
Unfortunately due to some travel related issues the chibi episode will be a little late. I'll post it as soon as it's ready and it should still come out before the episode will drop for everyone tomorrow.
Thank you for your understanding.
