| LOL. Yup. This comic summarizes the bulk of shonen titles out there. |

I actually didn't think this was funny until I saw Nina's face. Lol.
Then I realized it was a parody. Funny comic as always.  |

I got Yakitate!! Japan vibes from reading this comic. It's probably just me, though.
Nice comic this week. |

Some people just notice the strangest things!  I always look for Myoopi-brand candy, and sure enough... ;p
But I agree with here-and-faraway that this one pretty much summarizes most shounen out there. A mop though? What in the heck is Kevin watching?!  |

The second panel is so Cuuute!
Also, a true inspiration to amatuer janitors everywhere. |

Yay candy! (I wonder if anyone actually eats it...)
Good ol' shonen formula... it can apply to anything, including janitors... |

Oooo, I hope UMD DX is picked up by AS this year! Or, can someone tell me when volume one will be available?
A very funny strip this week. |

That's the first series that popped into my mind.
Not that it's a bad thing. Some premises are so ridiculous, but darn it - they work surprisingly well sometimes.
Honestly, at this point, I wouldn't be phased one bit if there was actually an ongoing manga series exactly like this out there. |

| If it is specifically referring to shonen jump anime, she forgot the part where the badass-looking rival comes with his arrogance and says: "Hmph! I'll show you how a real janitor mops the floor!" |

| I too thought of YJ when I saw this. Just goes to show the shonen forula can apply to anything. |
