Manga Pulse 518: Mach Kill

It’s lunch time again. Grab your tray and get in line. You’d better have an idea of what you want. The menu is at the start of the line and you better have read it. Take too long and we send you to the back. If you don’t see it, we don’t have it. Looking for a shonen manga and it’s not under the glass? Then it’s not available today. Don’t like it, come back later. As for what we have today we’re only going to say this once.
