Only French manga this week (and not very much for me, I’ve been a in a novel reading mood). I’ve been buying a larger percentage of manga in French now that I can afford it (it does cost slightly more). If you can read French you should seriously consider it: the selection is much better as is the quality of the translations and of the books themselves. And remember you can ask for reviews in the comments.
