If it wasn't for Naruto, Kakashi and Gai would die.
There's not even point on wasting eight gates on them. They can't die. Gai would only delay them.
 
Bleach

Looks like grimmjow is confirmed alive and the next arc takes place in the ice palace.

Wasn't Halibel confirmed alive too?


The editor's guess:

Next arc, a few Espada(s) shows up?
● Starrk
● Harribel
● Noitora
● Grimmjow
● Nel
● Zommari

Other Espada(s) not showing up? Does the editor guess it right?

New arc takes place in Ice Palace/氷の宮殿?

近场の地下で、氷の宫殿が次回の舞台だそうです。

The first one, it says:

(The current captains)

5th division: Shinji
6th division: Byakuya / Vice-captain: Renji
7th division: Komamura
8th division: Shunsui
9th division: Kensei / Vice-captain: Hisagi

Kubo plans to make the Espada to reappear in the new arc.


The 2nd spoiler, I think it says:

The stage/arena for the next arc is the underground of the Ice Palace?
 
Naruto

Not sure if I'm digging his tron armor... Remember when this manga was about ninjas and what not? Now it's all about 2 page massive explosion spreads. huh...
 
Naruto

Took me a few pages to get what was going on, and when Sasuske comes onto the scene to equal Naruto's most glorius of broken hax will be the most fabulous rage worthy moment, second only to Sasuske's redemption.

One Piece

This chapter was ace especially the horrified look on Ussop, Sanji, Zoro and Luffy's face when told to cut loose the fish, Sanji's "headcount" and Brook flipping his shit on the Laboon fakeout. :lol

WE'RE FINALLY IN THE NEW WORLD w00t!!
 
Loved the end where Usopp was the only one freaking out at the New World welcome. While the rest of the crew wouldnt have it any other way.
 
One Piece

This chapter was soooo good. I was hoping for a few more under the sea as I love the inbetween chapters but man oh man. I probably had the same face as Luffy when I saw the surface of the ocean. And I really can't believe anyone thought they were going to surface in the usual spot for a Smoker reunion.
 
Naruto

Best scene was Kakashi almost mistaking him for the 4th.
I love the cloak and I guess the 3/4 pants is a throwback to the sage mode.
 
One Piece 654 - Enjoyable, though I wish the reveal of the New World got a color spread :( I want to see this "surging sea of flames"!

WARP TO WORLD 8.
 
One Piece C

Very slow chapter, lots of humor though and I like how much hype is behind the New World. New World looks very fucked up and crazy.

Naruto C

New transformation looks terrible, but the chapter itself is solid. I like the Godzilla feel to these battles.

Bleach

I'm confused, are we supposed to know what the Ice Palace is?

Vinland Saga B

Such a boss chapter, feels like it finally moving on.
 
Naruto

Soooo Naruto has another power-up to his Bijuu mode, able to combine completely now with the Kyuubi, able to use Bijuu spheres, all the while having a clone in sage mode.

I'm not seeing how Sasuke can possibly become powerful enough to even counter this.
 
Naruto:

Naruto 2012, he's making it happen people HE'S MAKING IT HAPPEN. This is something i wanted to see since Part I, where Naruto used the combine transformation jutsu with Bunta vs Gaara. On top of entering Bijuu mode, It seems he's leveled up his Kyuubi Chakra mode as well. Kyuubi Chakra mode V2? Anywho, Naruto is literally a god now, his power is through the roof. The 4th could barely deflect a single bjuu dama, Naruto can deflect 5. Furthermore it seems that on top of being in Bijuu mode, his body is "outside" it as well. SAGE MDOE MADE A REAPPEARANCE!!! Its unmatched in terms of sensing. Jiraiya's legacy lives on!
Overall, it was a solid chapter.

One Piece:

Ahh, I love transitional One Piece chapter. Seeing the crew interact just makes me smile. The Nami shower panels were humorous, if not predictable. (fucking Sanji hehe) The fishing scene actually made me chuckle when at the end, where Nami forces Luffy/Zoro/Sanji/Usopp to choose between life or die with a fish. They're horrified expressions are priceless. The appearances of Laboons pod was pretty heartwarming, though to be honest I think it would have been better if they showed up later in the arc. Next chapter should be good. New World bitches!!!

LOL that was a nice reference.

Bleach

God I thought you were being sarcastic! You're actually fucking serious -_-
I'm pretty sure Kubo confirmed Grimmjow's death in an interview of some kind. Oh well :/
 
Harisugawa

...all of my everything everywhere everywhat

EVERYWHAT

well i guess i should have seen it coming after that volume 1 author's comment kanou made. it really sounded like he gave up there.

but still...


wait wait more edits: HxH gets color pages next week! Depending on this week's chapter it might be the climax of the arc!

Don't worry, there's a reset button in the story already so it can be pushed at any time for 200 chapters of hijinks, hilarity, and rage
especially when it gets canceled halfway

Actually, it's the opposite, he said he wasn't dead in an interview. And Grimmjow coming back isn't THAT farfetched either.

Oh really? I guess I must be experiencing source amnesia. Honestly, i'm not hating on Bleach when I say this... but fuck Grimmjow. Really dislike his character. This is the same motherfucker who had the gall to say "all your bankai gives you is average speed and average power." I wish Ichigo snapped him like a twig and beat him half to death.

"In the first place, Grimmjow wasn't meant to be an important character, he was to quickly die. But as of now, his existence will eventually matter for the future of the manga."
 
Sankarea 25

Fashion moe.
Zombie moe
Friendship moe

I can't handle this anymore

How are they releasing chapters so quickly? In the last 30 days alone, there has been 3 releases.
 
Naruto

Fuck yeah. That was an amazing chapter. Kakashi have mistaken him for Minato. Naruto should have combined his Bijou Dama with Bee.

one piece

Fun chapter, and a great last page.

Hey hey hey, Grimmjow might be back? He was always one of my favorites. Hype.
Grimmjow, hell yeah.
God I thought you were being sarcastic! You're actually fucking serious -_-

No he did not. There was a lot of fake interviews out there. Kubo never said that Grimmjow died, as a certain fact after Grimmjow was defeated.


Naruto

With regard to power dynamic between Naruto and Sasuke.
Naruto has been playing catch up since the beginning of part 2.

Sasuke was more powerful than Naruto at the beginning of part 2.
Naruto obtains Rasen Shuriken and brings up some balance to the disparity between the two.
Sasuke achieves MS and surpases Naruto.
Naruto learns sage mode and it still not as power up as Sasuke´s MS.
Sasuke obtains EMS and becomes way out of Naruto´s league.
Naruto learns Kyuubi mode, and now this mode. Now they are even in power scale. Some of you have forgotten that when EMS is obtained it creates a whole new jutsu. Who knows how hax it is. So right now Naruto = Sasuke.
 
Sankarea 25 - Moe after moe after moe. If not for the occasional creepy panel and the zombie references, I'd forget that this is about a dead girl and attempted suicides instead of saccharine sweet moe stuff.
 
I'm more puzzled why the editor expects Starrk to come back. He was confirmed to be dead in that Bleach guidebook, I believe. Grimmjow, however, was not (status left unknown) so I've always expected him to come back alongside Nell and Haliboob.

The editor was guessing, he mentioned different characters including Ulquiorra and Yammy iirc. All the espada are confirmed dead except Grimmjow and Halibel.

BTW ice palace might be about the royal guard. It´s a guess that´s going around.
 
Naruto
Well that was a great chapter. I didn't catch the whole sage clone thing, so I thought Naruto's new power up was a Nine-Tail's Cloak Naruto being projected by Sage Naruto, with a giant Nine Tailed Fox surrounding all of them. I'm glad that someone pointed out that it was just a clone to detect the rods, because that would have been ridiculous (comparatively speaking).
Naruto
Not sure if I'm digging his tron armor... Remember when this manga was about ninjas and what not? Now it's all about 2 page massive explosion spreads. huh...
Not that I disagree in general (as that is what this manga has become), but that is what the tailed beasts are all about. It's not a battle of ninja -- it's a battle of giant energy monsters.
Naruto: B
Pathetic. We didn't even see them fight, what was the point of having them come in the first place?
What are you talking about? Kakashi and Gai fought quite a bit (just not in this chapter). Kakashi and Gai were about to kill themselves to stop that five Bijuu bomb attack.
 
Naruto was fucking awesome this time. Seeing 9 tails kick ass was just... COOL.

One Piece was great as always. I loved the first page too... "wanna hop in with my shower tempo?" YES PLEASE. CHOPPER IS SO LUCKY. Also, SICK last panel. NEW WORLD.

Sasuke will be Shukaku's jinchuriki since Shukaku and Kurama hate eachother and argue over who is more powerful. Shukaku is the only biju missing from this fight.

Wow thats news almost as exciting as the return of Aizen or Ulquiorra/Jinta gaining a main role in the series. Ichigo Grimmjow was my favorite fight in the series, so a return would only guarantee that fighting will perpetually and continuously again be at an epic upper echelon level.
