So much development!
Isidro's fight against the pirates was pretty cool. He's not completely there yet, but at least he won't be dead weight anytime soon. It's amazing that I like him.
Sonia is an interesting girl. As a medium she must be able to see what Griffith really is and she seems to know about the Apostles in the army and yet she doesn't seem to care. That is pretty scary. Getting Magic Loli on her side would've been pretty good for them, I bet. Even though I'm always wrong when it comes to predictions in this series, I suspect that she's going to be Magic Loli's boss in some sort of way.
Farnese leaving the party in exchange for a ship? "She finally made herself useful!" But seriously, this is a weird move, even for her. She just started her magic training with Magic Loli and while she sucks at babysitting Casca ("omg, she ran away again"), Casca trusted her the most. Not to mention that losing Serpico really hurts the group. Just steal a damn ship, like the kid said. Heck, you already defeated a bunch of pirates! Just take theirs! Ugh. But now that she's marrying into another family and seeing how her unhappy brother arranged everything, I smell another fine political drama. That might be worth it.
Little side note: Instead of rape, we get more Loli scenes, including a bathing accident, where she lands naked on sleeping Guts? Is that really better, Miura? No, it isn't! What is wrong with you?!

Be honest, if you had to choose between living life as a vegetable or letting everyone around you die to become a god what would you do? Also you spent the last year being horribly torched every day.
You know I'm right

His meltdown was weird, but I think it was Freshmaker who had a reasonable explanation. Not that it justifies his actions.

Yes he was a dumb ass and I admit that, had he been a bit patient he would have gotten everything he wanted. I feel he had received his fair share of medicine for what he did after all he didn't rape the princess she willingly wanted it. Again if you were in Griffith's shoes and given the option to become a god why wouldn't you take it?

If he didn't brought this on himself i would possibly be on this side, but nope all on him here.
As said before the Count was a fucking better man than he was, seriously.

Headon feels as if he is cheating bad, or is just playing around. Poor Baam, though at least Evan gives him countless support and faith. I wonder if theyd have to actually physically intervene, if every major guardian of sorts will be like headon.

I used to say Yamatogawa but the fucker's schedule is the worst ever. I try not to discriminate in my porn tastes, but I have to be partial to Hisasi's gorgeous illustrations of curves --not to mention he totally gets what moé is about.
That's probably a cowardly answer, I admit! In reality I just don't want to out my fetishes that easily for you, people.
Oh my.
I don't know anyone there. Meeting new people scares me.

All part of the plan for giving her the spotlight LOLOLOLOLOL.
As for the other stuff continue reading.

Oh really? That's awesome. I wonder if it'll start from the beginning or continue from where the one shot leaves off?
As for Katawa Shoujo, I meant more the set up of just having a school set up just for people with various disabilities and the resulting hijinks that come out of that. I think it handled the issues fine, but obviously that set up doesn't allow for the theme of bullying to come out.

Kiba no Tabishounin - The Arms Peddler
Set in a post-apocalyptic future the story centers around Souna Yuki whose entire family is murdered and he is left with a snake mark in his hand.
He is saved by an arms peddler named Garami in exchange for his servitude thus begin his journey through this twisted world.
One of the best things of this manga is the post-apocalyptic setting with elements of dark fantasy. Not only there is remains of the past civilization and technology but supernatural beings such as witches, necromancers, vampires, etc.
It helps that Souna does man up pretty quick and Garami is a hot badass.

I think I'd rather have a genre shift than her becoming the new MC. She's godawful.

If Grimmjow takes forever to show back up, seriously, difficult to wait for, and awful for Ichimaru being dead, unbelievable.

More funny than interesting interview. Of course he had to sneak in "the heart". He really cares about it, you know?
I really want to like Hisasi but I feel like the dude goes waaaaaayyyyyyy overboard with the bodily fluids sometimes.
I like that one with the NEET girl though.

You might not like the other chapters then lulz.
plus eh she's just some girl that has a huge crush on the MC right now and she's actually useful (with bonus help from Griffith himself). Lets see if that will continue or she gets over it eventually.
LOL

LOL Kubo is so boss. Wish he had more time to do other characters. Get back to Japan and give us new chapters Kubo!

It's not her crush itself, but the way it's portayed, I guess.
He was never really a main character and his story was told, plus he's in the flashback. I don't think there's more you could want.
Kubo would've brought him back, if he was popular (same reason Byakuga didn't die), but I don't think he even ranked in the top 10 of the polls.

You knew he was dead for two years.
Why is a confirmation going to change how you feel?
I dont get at all what [...] is supposed to be.
But it is pretty funny if his assistants' main job is to do the backgrounds. They must put their feet up most of the time.
EDIT: oh and I though tit was so funny how he doesnt trust his assistants to draw the explosions.
Its really not at all obvious with these shonen manga.
look at Byakuya. Jesus christ I'm not mad that Gin is dead, but I am mad that Byakuya didnt die.

Well, I wouldn't mind if Kubo explained her story, but I don't think there is one. She's an Anti-Hollow robot and that's it.
And of course he's still important. He's going to be Ichigo's Vegeta.
Infinite Justice

Well I guess she feels really strongly about it and it goes with the "older than she appears" vibe she tries to give off (though to the audience she is still just a child also).
She's still young so we'll see...
more likely for "other stuff" that he doesn't want to disclose maybe due to wordlength/time reasons.

Jinta was always a really good character, so I wouldnt mind some Ururu backstory if it involved both of them.
I'll be honest I had to google the name to even remember who that was,but yesI also thought her explaining would be done with Anti-hollow robot.
And Aizen being Ichigo's Vegeta sounds nice, I'll wait for the fusion between them.
edit: That being said I'm sad that there will be no Bleach this week, the flashback arcs are pretty interesting in Bleach.
Yep. It's the way she tries to carry herself as if she's some all-knowing adult and acts like Guts is crazy for treating her like a child. It's the way she constantly insults/belittles Ishidro and buddies up with Farnese.
Lol Kubo being incompetent as hell as usual. Why even expect someone that makes low quality story and characters to even be competent enough to make backgrounds? Backgrounds never defeat the purpose of a story being focused on a character, ever. If anything it enhances the character by putting him in a situation where we know exactly what point in that character's story is.
Let's say for example Ichigo goes inside of a hospital to meet up with his dad who was injured somehow or another. But inside, he meets a Shinigami and the two start clashing for 5-10 chapters straight, and throughout this there is no backgrounds. Situations like this are common in Bleach (just replace hospital with Hueco Mundo, Soul Society, Karakura Town) where you end up forgetting why they're fighting in the first place and what Ichigo is supposed to be doing and where exactly Ichigo is at in his journey. This is why backgrounds are important, cause it serves as a way to show progression of these characters, plus it looks better than a lack of backgrounds.

Scrapped Grimmjow backstory?
They could always use it as a filler anime arc... oh
Kubo's chatting a load of crap about that Backgrounds being distracting. They give characters grounding and a sense on place, Bleach regularly feels like the characters are floating in a white fog because of the lack of backgrounds.
And the drawing "focus to the characters" is hot air too. Removing backgrounds is a good tool to give a particular scene weight, or give the impression that time is standing still. For example like in:

But when minimalistic backgrounds are the norm, it loses impact. If you're really clever, you can achieve the effect while still have really detailed backgrounds:
so Kubo doesn't really have a leg to stand on.
It will probably restart the story just like most oneshots -> serialization transitions. The only thing I'm worried about is when the timeskip will happen in the serialization.
Kubo thinks the entirety of Bleach is like this, when it really isn't.

Well it extends to most of Bleach's hardcore fanbase so if it makes them happy.
Or the rantings of a man whose head is so firmly lodged in between his own buttcheeks that he doesn't know what the real world looks like anymore.

He graduated from troll to Magnificent bastard.
Are the enemies mostly similar to the ones you posted like that whale monster? Anyway, it looks interesting so added to the backlog.

Whats funny that she kinda is that all knowing adult right now in the group but she's ultimately still a child with that info.
Tbf he is a monkey/a bit lacking at times but he realizes he's a just kid and wants to improve himself, so her (mostly her fairy tbh) ribbings pushes him to become that.
as for Farnese it sounds like you are still bitter about her tbh LOL
You say that like I shouldn't be.
That panel only works as well as it does because of how busy mock town was established to be beforehand. It just makes you feel like "For that moment, we were the only people in the world" thing that people go on about in romance stories. Take away the backrounds and that just become a waste of two pages.

Nope, this one is unique. There is a wide array of monsters that include a giant worms, "fairies", an Cthulhu like monster, etc.
There is mention of dragons but they didnt appear yet.

Death in shounen is a curable disease.
Yeah I know. He's still my favourite character in Bleach by a mile.
