One Piece: I'm so bummed about Jimbe not joining, it almost seemed like a surefire thing but I guess Oda decided to go another direction. I'm still assuming that there will be at least one other person who will join the crew so maybe we'll see them within the next few arcs.

Besides all that though, I'm so hyped. That last page gets me pumped just thinking about it... the crew is FINALLY heading into the New World. And with all the different potential islands they could head to, I see nothing but awesomeness in One Piece's future. To the New World!
 
Naruto

TnJ complete.

Now to see how fucking broken the Sauce will be to even this out (although the dude already has a creature that acts as the ultimate defense and it has sword like weapon made out of ameretsu flames) LOL


One Piece

On to the New world and a new arc, plus it should be interesting to see how the Strawhats stack up in reagrds to strength compared to the guys in the New World (Pecom's bounty being a nice indicator already).

Plus it was pretty obvious that Luffy would want to go to the really fucked up (ie. dangerous) islands.
 
Naruto

these rash decisions midbattle are always going to be bad. even if Naruto wins, kyuubi's just gonna be bored when Naruto is eating breakfast or on the toilet for the rest of his life. at least dragon ball acknowledged this when Goku thought about fusing with Gohan. he would have to go to school and sleep with his daughter in law to have Pan or whatever. these are real issues rarely discussed in comics for children.

Why wouldn't Goku just fuse with Vegeta? I'm guessing this was around the Buu saga where everything was just all over the place.

Well, by all means he would out live Naruto regardless so why not? Naruto's life span is likely a to him what the life span of a hamster is to us :/

Naruto
Was cool ... but they're taking their good sweet ass time getting on with the Fox Form >:/
 
Honestly? Wait till they get to Raftel, we'll probably discover that just the uncovering of One Piece will give us 8 more years of comic or something like that.

I was honestly expecting Raftel to be endgame without a doubt. After what Whitebeard said in passing during the war, there's absolutely no way this series doesn't get an extra year or 2 of material to run with at the very least after getting to Raftel.
 
Naruto

It´s nice to see the relationship between Naruto and the Fox evolve. People might say oh, the Fox is evil and bla bla, but it´s not the first time that Naruto changed someone. Zabuza, Tsunade, Gaara, Sai, etc.... Why is it so hard to think that Naruto can change the Fox? Especially since we got the info that the tailed beasts are creatures with feelings and emotions.

one piece

Pinky swear? That´s some corny shit. Let the new arc roll.

Aizen is one of the worst shonen antagonists of all time, and he's practically the only major antagonist of Bleach yet.

Nope, Aizen is the best antagonist in Shonen history.
 
Magico

Wait, wait wait wait wait. Wait. Wait for a damn second gosh.

Those two blondes... were dead bodies? Like, they were dead? Flinging them around on screen and everything?

He basically smashed two dead bodies into the head of someone to kill him?

Christ that's morbid

othello power could be my favorite power so far depending on how it works. if you put something in the middle of two others it changes to that? limitless potential
 
Up until that huge flashback, the manga was great. I don't know how I feel about that landlady flashback. Seems way too contrived and something just added for the heck of it cause the mangaka needed something to pad the manga.
True, the side-stories were all fairly poor. Only the main story was enjoyable even though I have a few areas I disliked. More about that later.
The cold truth about mangaf

I can't argue with that.
 
The Breaker volume 4

So the dude is now being able to survive gettign dragged on the street while attached to a bike.

I must admit that I'm finding him a little less annoying then he was in the first volumes. Initially he was a spineless coward that almost sold his friend off to get raped, but now he has some balls.
Probably he's being made to be a bit too goody goody, but we'll see. The Sunwoo princess is cute in her reactions to him.
 
Anyone remember when the Ninetails was a murderous untrustworthy beast that was supposed to be kept sealed forever?

Good times.

Ever remember anyone treating it with respect? Nope.

That's the whole fucking point of Naruto. Naruto changing people with his good will and spirit.
Over the course of 17 fucking years, Naruto and the 9 tails relationship has evolved, I think that's pretty reasonable but some posters here are pretty stupid.
 
One Piece

I am SO down for another Baroque Works-type arc. Dude.

Dude. Let's go. Bunch of islands, one arc. I'm ready.

That sounds absolutely incredible.

One Piece
Was Luffy using his neck to coil round Nami like a goddam Cobra? If so, that is amazing. A whole new level of Gomu Gomu creepy what with him appearing so quickly and quietly like that.

Probably my favorite part of the chapter, though Chopper and Usi's death kneel's are a close second.
 
The whole story was supposed to be done in 5 years!!!

lol

Oda really sucks when it comes to judging how long arcs going to last .
Skypiea and few others last longer than he said they would for some reason or the other .
Plus he also said he keep on adding more to the story , now it going to be his only long running manga since it's easy to do anything he wants in the OP world.

Nope, Aizen is the best antagonist in Shonen history.

That has to be a joke Shishio Makoto , Father just to new a few were better than him.
 
I loved all the weird new things in One Piece. Luffy manipulating his body like that is new, creepy, and awesome.

And I did enjoy Kurama finally teaming up with Naruto. It was going to happen, and it happened as best it could. Now, on to unleashing it.
 
Naruto
Seriously what ridiculous bulshit will Kishi come up with for Sasuke to even keep up with Naruto...
Sasuke always takes the main jutsu's of the last person he has defeated to be used in his next fights. So the likely thing will be an infinite Izanagi where Sasuke will negate any damage done to him.
 
I cannot wait for Luffy's newfound snakelike ability to be depicted in the anime. Has the potential to be a greatest moment of the series if Toei do it right.
 
One Piece

Great chapter, just a send off but had plenty of good humour and I am very much anticipating the next story arc!

HxH

After the build up, it seems pretty obvious that Pariston will pull something out of the bag to win a victory.

Good chapter though, I still can barely follow Alluka's ability.

Can't wait for the next chapter though, should be amazing.
 
HxH
ARGH, election crap! Oh well, assuming it decides to focus on Gon, Killua and Alluka it should all go down next week. Actually next week is looking really good for everything...I know these mangaka don't plan these things out but...maybe their editors do...

Also I don't know how I feel about Ging "predicting" all this would happen. There's characters being highly intuitive and then there's Gary Stu's...
 
HxH

So Ging didn't dodge the punch because of a greater plan is now confirmed and that speech was from the heart.

Should be interesting to see how Partison deals with this plus we will get the return of the fucking MC to his comic.
