Gotta hand it to them for winning over their fans slowly while dealing with all that shit. Well done concert and it's great that they easily passed their goal. Wonder what groups they'll get promoted to. Hope Okabe stays around.

With regards to one might die, i don´t think that it´s literally meant. It could mean that one of them will be a new person, (change in personality, character development, change of ideology) thus becoming a new person and the old one dies. At least that´s how i will interpreted for now.

That's how I read it.

Also, wasn't Zaraki's VC called Yachiru? So he named her after Unohana? And what happened to her anyway? She seemed so interesting in the SS arc.

My first thought was that shadowy figure was Aokiji, since he's standing on the ocean and super lazy, but now I'm not so sure.

I would hope that's what he meant, because sending your best healer off to die would be really dumb.

Oh man oh man oh man.

OK this manga is pretty fucking good.

That was a great way to treat shuri's and sasara's confrontation.

Little Yachiru is in Soul Society, somewhere.

Unohana won´t die at the hands of Zaraki, but healing is not her forte, but i still get what you mean.

Yeah, but I wish Kubo did more with her. It was cute how scary she was.

Unohana won´t die at the hands of Zaraki, but healing is not her forte, but i still get what you mean.

How is healing not her forte, when she's the captain of the 4th division? Her shikai's special ability is healing others

[Bossun]

Bleach

Well from what I understood from the chapter they both gave each other a scar.
And from what I understood, Zaraki is supposed to be stronger than Unohana as he is the actual wielder of the title of strongest.
And from what I understood previously this is basically just to make Zaraki even stronger by teaching him I don't remember what.

 

[Kusagari]

Unohana won´t die at the hands of Zaraki, but healing is not her forte, but i still get what you mean.

I get what you mean, since she's obviously more adept and probably comfortable fighting, but there's still little indication she isn't the Gotei 13's best healer.

He's going to learn to put his back into it now. His old power-up was using two hands. He may also learn to step into his swing, but that may be too much.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

Yeah, but I wish Kubo did more with her. It was cute how scary she was.

Maybe after Kenpachi is finished with his training she will show up and probably figth in next battle, but i would not count on her to battle.

Kirinji (Royal guard with the yakuza hair) said that she is not fit for healing. She´s the hewad of the 4th division because and i guess that Yamamoto forced her. She´s very good at kido, and we know only one aspect of her zampakto, and that is healing.

I get what you mean, since she's obviously more adept and probably comfortable fighting, but there's still little indication she isn't the Gotei 13's best healer.

Anyone with great kido abilities could heal though. I doubt that she´s more apt than Yamamoto, but yeah she is great user of kido.

 

[Bossun]

Let's try something new Zaraki : swing from left to right!

Could be Kenpachi or Yamamoto. The translations are really crappy.

Unohana is a kendo master, and she will teach him kendo and other arts of the sword.

Bleach / Naruto

Meh I kinda liked both Bleach and Naruto this week.

Bleach: Kubo's obviously just exaggerating to say one of them will die since that would make Shunsui a complete idiot.

Naruto: The only thing thats a little silly is how quickly Kurama turned into the nicest guy ever. Like, Gyuki isn't even that charitable and its been established that he's been tamed from the first chapter he was introduce. I'm not entirely certain of what's supposed to be happening on the action pages but that's kind of par for the course of every action manga.

Yea but Kurama was changed by the powers of TRUST and FRIENDSHIP. Or whatever. Dude was lonely and just wanted a friend. If Kishi wanted to Kurama being in control of a clone could lead to funtime misunderstandings, but probably not.

 

[Gradivus]

I enjoyed one piece this week, but hopefully they leave punk hazard soon.

 

[Mr. Fix]

Bleach

Holy fuck that chapter was ace. So good. But if one them is expected to die, then it's most likely Unohana, right? Great start.

Naruto

Kinda mixed about this. I like that the others are getting screen-time (most Shika-Ino-Cho again), but now everyone has the kyuubi cloak? Also them flashback panels.

One Piece

Disappointed at Doflamingo not arriving yet, but Usopp and Nami getting in the fray was neat. The guy in the sea might be who helps the strawhats against Doflamingo. I'm hoping it's a new character though. There's also the Donquixote family being brought up. If Dofla's the young master, I wonder who the elder is. A wild guess would be one of the Gorosei or a world noble.

Kishi's off to a great start as well it seems.

I think Kishimoto forgot about her completely, it's just weird how she has been completely anonymous. She is supposed to be the heroine of the manga, but Hinata is the one acting like a heroine now.

 

[Raxus]

One Piece


Great chapter. I am glad Nami finally showed off her training and Usopp showing a seastone cuff attack is just icing on the cake. Over the last week I was writing how bad OP was getting with writing fights for its female protagonists and hopefully this is a sign we will get Robin and Nami fights in the future. Usopp's fights have gotten better as OP has progressed and I really want to see how deep his arsenal goes in a full fledged fight.

General Franky was hilarious (and awesome) as usual.

I assume the shadow at the end is Aokiji considering his defining trait and he is in the middle of an ocean seems to both be featured on the same panel. However he has such a unique look it is weird the shadow doesn't look like him.

I may be getting impatient but I hope Jimbei gets added soon to the crew. Be nice to see a 10 v 10 brawl in the series or some more pair up fights with a new member attached.

Naruto

Where's Sakura?

At this point it is probably for the best she just left until Sasuke shows up so she can cry more.

We'll have to wait for better translations to see if that is Aokiji's line. It seems likely though, since this guy's already been to PH.

She was in Ino's super short flash back. That should be more than enough for one chapter.

We should just compile a bunch of panels where Sakura randomly appears once in the entire chapter in one panel, doing nothing.

Cringed so badly at the porn stash joke Shikamaru's dad made. Nothing else really noteworthy about the chapter.

Kenpachi is my favourite captain, dat sword. We'll see how this arc develops before the inevitable retaliation on Quincyville.

One Piece

Does Ussops slingshot have a devil fruit now? Also it seems Doflamingo has a playing card themed crew, with himself as the "Joker" and Law as a potential "Heart".

Other members may include: Diamond Jozu and Zombie Ace (kidding).

Kurogane, up to 50 - Nao x Kamiya doujins everywhere now. Well, if Kurogane was more popular, that is.

And then ... it skips right to 62. Hrm.

Even though the series should've ended, I kind of like the "nothing happens" chapters more than the stupid random dramatic plot twists that romance series have to keep tossing in to justify their continued existence.

You're telling me you're actually interested in where Sakura is? She's probably sitting around that tent receiving more love confessions she's rejecting in favor of her attempted murderer.

 

[IHaveIce]

So I just went back some chapters of One Piece and in the chapter where Luffy knocks out Ceasar we see the guys who watch the broadcast.. and in one panel someone says something along the lines of "quick inform Jack" and someone responds with "It will get pretty crazy once he is involved"

So could be the guy in the last panel be "Jack" ? Or am I forgetting some character who is called Jack lol

 

[Steroyd]

I think it's the most logical question considering even Tenten had a panel all to herself.

It's possible. The only other "Jack" in the series is Giant Jack on Skypiea, and that's a giant beanstalk. ... Fuck me I just got that.

Sore wa Totsuzen, Unmei no Aite ga 18 - Romeo and Juliet arc. Because of course.

Sakura got demoted to White Mage 300 chapters ago.

 

[brotkasten]

I think it's the most logical question considering even Tenten had a panel all to herself.

But that's because we needed to see Tenten's reaction to Neji's death. That was pretty crucial for the progress of the story and her character development.

There are plenty of people who are legitimately highly critical of the lack of Tenten at various places in Naruto.
