I plan to do this every Thursday, once all of the new chapters have been released. However, Manga Stream was able to post new releases a day early, so here's the first weekly summary of my manga reading list. So far, no new Air Gear chapter released for the week. I'll include my first summary of Fairy Tail next week.
Spoilers ahead! So if you would prefer to read it yourself, please visit your favorite scanlation sites.
