I can totally see Oda pulling an "you activated my trap card/sharingan" here and having his Logia fire being hotter than magma

I'll forgive him for it if he does because he doesn't live off those like Naruto/Bleach do

If not, I look forward to what Luffy does

One Piece

Luffy will beat Akainu's ass if Ace dies, this will be like Goku turning Super Saiyan for the first time when Krillin died.

This is exactly what I was thinking of when I saw those last two pages. Except I don't think Luffy can kick his ass at this point... he will use haki next chapter and will get some shots in for sure. I'd be surprised if he's able to beat the fuck out of him.

Then again, Oda has succeeded in surprising me for the past n chapters, so who knows :lol

Also Sengoku is seemingly useless

The guy hasn't done jackshit. Perhaps the theories that he was mostly politics were right

He is the Yamamoto of One Piece. Guy in charge of a fighting unit who does jack shit as he watches his forces get owned.

I love how you call us out for hating on Naruto when you did the exact same thing for Bleach.

Some people certainly do hate on Naruto just for the hell of it, but the series really does suffer from the Sharingan fetish. If Izanagi had nothing to do with the Sharingan, this fight probably could've been really cool. But even then, this fight really served little purpose other than to give Sasuke another fight.

This chapter WAS a major improvement though, I'll give you that. It just shows you that Naruto isn't completely terrible when it's more about the world and history that Kishimoto created, rather than his Sharingan fetish.


I think this is the most disappointing part of the Naruto manga. Its an interesting world that could go on and on considering we barely know much about the other countries and their ninjas. Instead we're stuck with new Sharingan abilities every week and crappy Sasuke talks about eyes.

Bleach

So they did what everyone has been saying for months now and fake-won. If having everyone attack Aizen at once works so well why didn't they just do that from the start? This manga is so dumb. And of course, Aizen will be in perfect condition next chapter.

Although we know that it is true; words can not describe my anger at the fact that of ALL the characters on that battlefield that it was Toshiro Hitsugaya to actually strike through Aizen! What is up with that!

I picked up the first volume from my college bookstore because the cover looked awesome. I hope we get the anime in the US
 
Us top manga posters need to get on the ball. It takes our top 26 posters to make up half the posts in this thread(with at least 273 posts each), whereas the gaming side's Rock Band thread only needs 11 posters(with a whopping minimum 2651 posts). Furthermore, the RB thread's highest posters have comparable post amounts, whereas Angry Grimace carries us by a wide margin. I know we can make our corner of OT the most exclusive and unfriendly on GAF.

I thought it was weird that Rewrite was trying to stop us from complaining about shit, then I noticed he's a double agent for the rock band thread. He knows that we're creeping up on them, and is actively trying to prevent us from getting into scarily long conversations that are guaranteed to only consist of our core posters. Oh, I see your games.

No matter how broken Aizen is, he will never be strong enough to outplace Hitsugaya is character rankings. It makes me wonder what Dragon Ball Z would have been like if Mr.Satan was the most popular character.

Hunter x Hunter: Another great chapter. I wonder what Pitou will do once that girl is healed.

Yeah, this chapter is much better than the last one. I'm thinking she'll ask gon to let her take the girl somewhere, but I doubt he'll let that fly. All of a sudden she seems so much weaker than when she was introduced, though.
 
Hunter x Hunter

Well if anyone was still unsure of Gon and Pitou fighting, this chapter should erase all doubts. I've said it before, but intimidating Gon is awesome. Great chapter.

Damn it all to hell, I'm liking Hunter x Hunter again. Not like, I think it's great or anything, I'm just beginning to like it a little bit. Again. Then it'll no doubt go into another hiatus just as... forget it.

One Piece:

I can't help but wonder if Luffy will go batshit insane and we'll get a shot of Sengoku going KEIKAKU DOORI with a knowing smile on his face. Ace's execution was way too drawn out, although it could just be Oda being Oda.

Negima:

Stuff happened and a bunch of no-name scrubs from the Magic World 'died'--but they could just be illusions and the magic world was just one giant illusion as well. Who knows.

Where are these Hitsugaya fans, how is he so popular?! Hes just some elementary looking kid with spiky silvery hair and an ice dragon! When will this series go back to making sense, lol

I read Deadman Wonderland...good god that series does its best to cut the main character as deep as it can on a regular basis then once you think that torture is over they take a dump on him.

You're asking why a young hero with silver hair and the power to make an ice dragon is popular in Japan?

Need more posts kthnx.
The only manga I really actively follow is Naruto, so my contributions are very limited. I do read the occasional Bakuman though, and some Shoujo that I'm sure no one here would be reading anyways.

It's up on onemanga, and I just read the first chapter. Seems like a kinda iffy premises, but it was decent none the less. And the girl isn't actually naked. Not sure why she was made to look that way... actually I do.

Forgot to mention that I love the design for the Crimson Man. Maybe not the most original but definitely awesome looking.

For comparison, the top posters of last PoliGAF thread.

I'm really glad Luffy is the most popular character in One Piece, stops character polls from messing it up.

Fuck you. :lol Reading that made me laugh out loud so much!

Caring about how many posts you have is completely irrelevant anyway and you know this. And I wasn't trying to stop the complaining, I was simply calling out the double standard that people have in this thread. You know you're always welcomed to join the RB thread God's Beard. ;)

You need to get banned again like bjork so I can creep up on you.

:lol

Also, I remember someone mentioned we're one of the largest threads on the OT. That's an incredible feat!

yencid said:
Hmmm do you guys call a manga a chapter or a volume? ive always refereed to it as a volume and then the #
Volumes to me are the manga books you go and buy, while the weekly releases are "chapters".

You guys think that this is all an illusion by Shinji's sword? Maybe it's the perfect "opening" the captains were all busily talking about so that Ichigo can go in and strike.
 
Negima

Damn, people are disintegrating left and right. I'm betting none of them are really dead, but if they are, Akamatsu just killed off a good chunk of his side characters.

I don't even read Negima but I read that chapter just to see them get killed (although probably not for realz).

I've been thinking about trolling poligaf a little but I've heard thats supremely dangerous and that looks like a hardcore bunch at the top. I realized manga-gaf doesn't have any trolls. Its the nicest place on gaf.

Blame!
Has anyone read Blame! and is it good?

One Piece
I wonder ff a person heals (like if Ace recovers from the fist in his stomach) will their piece of paper regenerate? It wouldn't make sense if the paper stays burnt even if he recovers...

Bakuman is so so awesome.

When the author of Otters features it always cranks things up a notch.

"The christmas lights are too bright, can you get my sunglasses" :lol

No, not nearly exclusive enough. Takes way too many posters to make a substantial percentage of the content. Everybody's got an opinion.

Ah ha! I thought it was just my imagination when your posting speed increased after I passed you up! We'll see who's the pettiest poster soon enough!

I'll join the RB thread when Harmonix decides to update with some music instead of advertDLC and bullshit country packs. So basically, you've got nothing to worry about.

Volumes to me are the manga books you go and buy, while the weekly releases are "chapters".

I remember when there were no volume releases in the united states. I used to go down to the comic shop and pick up the new singles for Dragon Ball and Ranma 1/2. I remember the first time I saw a Shonen Jump in an Asian market, it just blew my mind, and it was less than the price of 2 singles, which were about 3 bucks each. I'd be damned if I wasn't going to buy it, moon runes and all. I bought a Japanese dictionary and sat there after class in elementary school, translating the chapters of Hunter x Hunter and Naruto, before I even knew what they were. Hell, I didn't even realize Naruto was about Ninjas. I thought it was some treasure manga about collecting scrolls.

Does Ichigo need to go in? Couldnt he just fire off dozes of Getsuga Tenshou's? I guess its feasible but unlikely. The only way I even see Ichigo doing some type of damage is if he went into that second (resurrecion, I guess) form again.
 
Ah this is reminding me of why i love HxH so much, the way how the story is told is different from other shonens i read. Also while Gon is probably going to get his ass racked i must say him being intimidating is freaking badass.

Sakura is more boring than Sasuke. I'd rather have Madara storytime hour over anything even remotely Sakura-related. Seriously, she's irrelevant, except as bait for Naruto or Sasuke.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

They weren't no name scrubs. They were a bunch of pedos. :lol All those girls are still 14.... and the only people that "died" were those 2 old dudes that were into Nodoka and Ako, a creepy lesbian, and a Furry wearing a maid outfit.

Bakuman

I laughed when Iwase came in, put on her full Ice Queen act, and Eiji just acted exactly the same; like a total lunatic. :lol
