Technically these jinchuuriki guys shouldn't have their bijuu powers anymore right?

i honestly think they shouldn't since the bijuu were removed.

But edo tensei allows the resurrected to use all the powers they had in life (including bloodline limits) so i guess having a bijuu at that point counts also.


All the more reason how broken that technique has become.
 
It's a discussion forum - disagreements are kind of the point to some extent. That doesn't mean you have to go out of your way to say how much something sucks every single week; I wouldn't get away unscathed if I went into the Skyward Sword thread and argued every Zelda game is bad.
 
Well edo tensei allows the resurrected to use all the powers they had in life (including bloodline limits) so i guess having a bijuu counts also.

Or he could have just put them all back in since he's the one that took them. :P

Because he's wrong and mean spirited about it.

I don't know how he can be wrong about his opinion, but how is he mean spirited? You're the one constantly on the attack. :P You hadn't even read his post and you brought him up.

Well, that was one of the issues with merging all the threads. Before, we had a separate thread for the big three exactly because each hated the next. That said, this isn't a Naruto thread.

You had to be there. *shrug* It's not really gonna make sense if you just show up now and wonder what's going on.

Copy 'n paste of a post I made about it at NF:

They have been "tainted" by the chakra of their Bijuu, as the KinGin brothers were; probably much moreso considering they were actual Jinchuuriki that were exposed to their chakra for a much longer period of time. So using something of this level shouldn't come as that much of a surprise.

And assuming that they weren't capable of partial Bijuu transformations before, Tobi's control over their actions could explain how they could accomplish that now. After all, he has the ocular power to perfectly subjugate the Kyuubi, it wouldn't be far fetched to assume he could essentially make the Jinchuuriki "perfect" as his tools. In fact, Tobi/Madara's control over Yagura could have been the reason he was known for being a perfect Jinchuuriki alongside B.

It's also possible that, since Tobi should be acting as the seventh path, Gedou, and these Jinchuuriki are being used as his Pain Rikudou, he may be able to somehow sync them with the Bijuu currently sealed within Gedou Mazou.

That, on top of Pain Rikudou's abilities, make them a much more threatening combination than Nagato's Pain Rikudou.
 
One Piece

So the Sea Kings could have came anytime before and saved the island? lol Talk about a shitty conclusion.

The only useful thing that came out of this chapter is stressing the importance of the ship and this Boy Joy person. Otherwise boring chapter.
 
NARUTO
Wooooo! Just 1640850935345901313409 weeks until Tobi reveals who he is! Uhg, Naruto + Bee vs. Tobi and Six Paths, while all the Kages vs. Madara, and we still need to deal with Socks and Kabuto. This war is never gonna ennnd, I wanna know who's under the mask right nowwwwww.
 
Naruto F

I can't even tell what the fuck I'm supposed to be reading anymore. The art and action is abysmal, and if I wanted to watch skinny ass boy-toys making stupid poses and doing even stupider shit while trying too hard to be DEEP, I'd play Kingdom Hearts. This shit is progressively getting worse and can only get even worse with the reintroduction of Sasuke into the storyline.

This is fucking rediculous. I said wow.
 
One Piece
This arc seems like it has gone by really fast. I hope we get Jinbei to join the crew but more than likely they will just have him stick around on Fishman Island to rebuild and all that stuff.

You're joking?

You're joking.
 
One Piece
I always like chapters that end the arc and set up the party stuff.
Reading back this arc today from the start made this chapter seem even better .

You're joking?

You're joking.

In way it does , it's fair amount of chapter but reading back today it seem rather short.
 
One Piece

My God the overall thing with the Strawhat chant and the "your feeling summon us" thing from the sea-monsters are so incredibly corny, hahaha.

Can't believe Oda pulled that kind of stuff.

looks like luffy is starting to hear the voice of all things like roger.

What? It is Shiraoishi that heard them talking, not Luffy. In fact it's the other way around, his "intense feeling" and Shiraoishi's "desire" to become his strength both summoned them. That's really corny stuff from Oda this week.
 
Bleach

I look forward to more information on this apparent revelation.

Naruto

Feels like a boss rush before the final boss of a game. Hope we'll get some good action out of this.

One Piece

finally
I hope we're off the island by New Year's.

Its been 40 something weeks with pointless flashbacks and not to mention several week breaks...and I would rather the next strawhat slot not be taken by Jinbei, someone new and just revealed would be nice, hes been in as many chapters as Vivi if not more, and thus shouldnt join.
 
You're joking?

You're joking.

No I am not. This arc feels like it has been really short. Dont know why but it has. But i am only counting the time on the island, not the travel to it and the reuniting/fake straw hats.

I somewhat agree. I think they need a fishman though to balance them out. Jinbei would fit the role but if not him then who else? Hachi? Too week? Shirahoshi? LOL no way the giant mermaid would go? Prince Fukaboshi? maybe but i dont see him leaving unless it is to see the world and grow stronger. Plus he would have to be able to split his tail into legs like Kokoro and i forget at what age a mermaid is able to do that.

Maybe you're just repressing all those drawn out and unnecessary flashback chapters.
 
why are people acting like the arc is over? there is still that prediction of luffy destroying fishman island coming true. remember that caribou is still out there kidnapping mermaids.
 
how in the hell is Naruto and Bee going to top this? I suspect Sasuke or Itachi to interfere.

Either that or bee doesn't leave this fight alive.
 
But the superior superior shonen, Hunter x Hunter, isn't out yet.

won't hear any complain from me there as I consider them both at the top currently.

This One Piece arc went pretty quickly though was quite enjoying it I suppose we are gonna be getting more on the true purpose of the arc and Joy Boy sometime later.

Stil wondering what the hell happened to Caribou though.

NO ONE CARES.

GET TO THE NEW WORLD.

I think the plot calls for either one of them to be captured. The fight would be kind of boring if Naruto and Bee completely demolished all those opponents, not to mention Naruto has to be on the edge of being exhausted. Itachi would only interfere with Kabuto I thought...speaking of which, has everyone still forgotten about Yamato...
 
So...so...................The OP arc is pretty much done? Oh joy, I can get caught up now. I think I'm behind by almost 15 chapters.
 
OK, I see where you are going with this. Something making sense within a "manga world" is quite different then a narrative that makes sense based on the source material. Anybody can create a manga world that makes sense since it is fiction. "Oh man, did he just headbutt that guy and steal all his memories. Yea, he gained that power from his father who is an ancient kung-fu mage." There, I just took something completely idiotic and made it make sense in a manga world.

Air Gear went for over a hundred chapters in one direction, A-T battles. It was entertaining and had some nice sub-plots like the tragedy of the dude's accident. Even back-stories like Buccha and Akito were entertaining. You always had a looming suspicion that the girls around Ikki were up to some more serious business. But for a long time it just wasn't known. Then we got to that point to bring up that darkness. And you know what? It was just a ball of shit from that point on. We had a nice "manga world" at that point which was then overhauled to a new one. Nothing in the new world makes sense in the old one. Any normal character upon entering the new narrative would be like "can you believe this shit?"

It is the pitfall of many manga. I would call it the "reveal" turning point in many of them that store up this looming backdrop. Some of them do it well and some like Air Gear don't. In hindsight you can probably defend any of my criticisms with it making sense in the world but I see two worlds in Air Gear up to chapter 185ish. And more importantly, one of those worlds was entertaining and the other one was painfully reaching every chapter.

I guess I just didn't find the big reveal in Air Gear to change much in the tone of the story and direction, splitting the world in two, since everything always seemed written as a way to have Ikki show off how much cooler and better than anyone else he is (and with a bigger dick too, since he has enough big boobed ladies swooning for him) and it mostly stayed that way, at least up to volume 30 (so chapter 286) which is where I'm at (since I don't follow scanlations for it).
Add to it that most of what was revealed, was hinted at little by little in the story (things like Agito/Akito, the sky stuff, the kings of the tower, Sleeping Forest, etc..etc..) and that it's nothing too deep (after all, Air Gear is a style over substance manga) and the only change I saw after the reveal was that, along with reaching the top of the tower and becoming the best, Ikki also had to kick an asshole's ass on the way now. After, ithe Kogarasumaru were still having AT fights, still being idiotic fuckers and messing shit up (in style).
I personally had more of an annoyance with the Aeon asspull, even though by that time I liked Aeon plenty.
 
After reading that Naruto chapter i think i'm gonna join the Tobi is Sasuke from Another timeline team LOL

Guy sounded a bit emo and his reasoning for the plan is like how Nagato was (world is full of pain and worthless, etc).
 
He won't do shit fighting wise.

I just hope Oda doesn't drag his plot fully knowing he can get one shotted by someone like Zoro.
okay caribou kidnaps shirahoshi and sells her to some person at mariejoa. the strawhats now invade mariejoa! take that new world.
 
One Piece

I wouldn't be surprised if Sanji one shots Caribou when he finds out Caribou's been going around capturing mermaids.
sanji defeating a logia? not going to happen. it will only happen after zoro defeats one and then the lower level strawhats can have a crack at them.

Him being a clone/experiment created by madara make more sense than future sasuke time travel. He grow resentful to real madara or want to be whole so he want to fulfill that moon eye plan for himself etc.
 
Bleach
Kubo makes around 200 chapter call back and does not get credit for it by most people? Typical mangagaf SMFH.

Anyway i loved the chapter. It´s not surprising or anything, but Ukitake being the architect made hate him even more. What a douche. Ichigo´s bankai should be different than last time.

Naruto

IIRC the 9 tails has more chakra and is more powerful than all the tailed beasts combined. So Naruto and Bee should not be having much trouble dealing with them. I getting really tired of this mask shtick. Kishimaot has been teasing us about the mask since he showed Kisame like 200 chapters ago.

one piece

Luffy talked no jutsu everyone on fishmen island and sea kings. Ahahaah funny. At least this is almost over. Bring on the new world.
 
seriously though luffy hasn't defeated a logia yet using haki. i seriously doubt they will do it before luffy. zoro and sanji never outshine luffy like that.

That is true guess luffy will fight Caribou in the NW .
Unless he going to be last thing to take care of in this arc .
