maybe the main character feels like a robot inside, and the balls he tosses are so fast to be like laser beams

i've just realized while looking at the preview of the next WSJ issue (it's starting in the next issue right? that wasn't just an other teaser?)

the main character, if you remove the glasses, and the hair, he sort of resembles saitama

So a manga about golf, well not my cup of tea, but maybe others will enjoy.

 

Anyway what I noticed 54 pages and not one female character. It seems only males exist in this world.

[Oben]

I, too, did not expect a manga with that title to be about golf of all things ^^ I like it though, I always enjoy sports manga that are more about suspense than about action (hooray Hikago), which could be done well with golf (at least from the way it currently looks).

Good call

[Zeando]

yeah, it surprised me too when i started reading it....

and the guy also acts like a bored saitama, but more clueless...

 

i'm still finishing the first chapter, but this is shaping up to have lots of math mixed in it

What is with this manga and emotionless characters lol

Either way, this was a great start and I really enjoyed this debut chapter....The art style is nice, the pacing wasn't too fast or too slow, we got nice introductions to what I'm guessing are going to be 4 of our main characters and they laid out the sport and the way it's played pretty clear and we had some cool laughs straight through xD

Not sure which one of the new series that I like the most now between this and Dr.Stone

Right? Like why is a golf manga called robot x laserbeam?

Apparently lol

Chapter 2: http://mangastream.c...beam/002/4135/1

Spoiler

I'm hooked, I'm really looking forward to Robo getting his competitiveness on. Hilarious though how the Samurai dude got the wrong golfer.

[Zeando]

robo's dad is crazy, it's as if he named his son roboto on purpose....

between robo and miura, hope there will be more dense characters like them
 

[Tokoya]

I bet Robo's dad was a golf legend....I'm glad to see that Robo isn't THAT broken whereas he's been practicing for a good while though

 

And this Samurai guy is too funny lol

they messed up the typesetting hard on this one   text in the wrong text bubble, etc

Yeah, it was quite annoying to read with all those mistakes.

Atleast he found out about Robot.
I've got this feeling that Robot will lose this match, which in turn will spark his competitiveness, which in turn will make that Samurai dude work even harder.

Enter, rival.

Chapter 4: http://readms.net/r/...beam/004/4164/1

My man just casually putted an Eagle...

But still, he'll lose according to the laws of shounen rivalry

[Zeando]

it's surprising how a manga about golf can still manage to have hype moments, like this last shot

 

wonder if further on there will be matches during bad weather, or while it's windy, and see Robo still calculate all the effects of the weather on the ball to still land precise shots
