In this week's batch of mini-manga reviews, I dove into two foodie-worthy reads, several comedies, a supernatural romance, a boys love story and a somewhat creepy horror story set in a small town. It's quite a mixed plate, so let's dig in and see what I read this week.
See which ten titles got the quick look-see treatment in this week's edition of my Weekly Manga Reading List, a.k.a. "What I Read This Week."

I love Moyashimon (and am praying for volume 3 to survive the Del Rey/Kodansha shakeup) but I would hardly call it one of the best drawn. The microbes are cute but something about the character design for all of the humans really puts me off.
