A new series dropped from Shonen Jump entitled "Kinato's Magic."

The first chapter introduces us to Kinato, a young man who is a magic user in a fantasy world. His magic is purely about rearranging mana and has been used by him and his family to for healing or physical therapy purposes. And it works well.

Throughout the first chapter, this shy man who doesn't believe in himself or his powers are worth anything realizes that he is.

A fantasy world story based around a character with low self esteem suddenly realizing that he is not just capable, but actually incredibly useful? I can get behind that.

Will check out Chapter 2.

So, Nice Prison is a new manga series. I'm down to try a first chapter of a new series, so I checked it out. I'm...no.

The story has two main character - a woman whose Dad was a prison guard so she wanted to be one and a "super model prisoner" who was born in prison to two inmates and got himself arrested for like jaywalking so he could help keep order in the prison.

...

So, a cop, designed to look like a child, and a fake convict are going to be keeping order in prison with a bunch of other cops / guards being largely unhelpful.

That's the series.

Huge pass for me.

I should've looked at the premise more before reading cause it's 100% not my thing.
