That shows that Kubo is clearly better at foreshadowing than Oda.

Shoddy reveal aside, there was some other really interesting bits of information in this chapter. Ryner and Bertholdt had the objective to erase humankind but not anymore? I wonder what exactly has changed. And why didn't they transform when their squad (?) was attacked by Ymir?

It does break conventions, which I'll give the guy credit for, but it's definitely going to be divisive when it foregoes something so generally accepted as a means to build tension. In my opinion, a reveal should give you an "OH SHIT" feeling, not a "wait... what?" feeling.
I'm sure there was foreshadowing if we go back and look for it, but it still very much came out of left field in the sense no one was even on the topic of Titan identities.

Stating the obvious bro.
Yeah, I get what you're saying.

Orochimaru attacked the leaf because he wanted to prove to the third that forbidding jutsu makes the leaf weak and that he would have been a stronger Hokage. It was out of spite. He's still working with Sasuke because he wants his body to become immortal. He's no longer desparate with his arms back.

Naruto 620
Suigetsu was quite hilarious in the chapter, that moment, the other one as well. I cant imagine what type of chakra and power Tobirama must have to even frighten Minato and Sarutobi-sensei and get Lord Orochimaru so serious like that. Sasuke seemed unmoved by it. For some reason am hyped for backstory even though Im usually not a fan, but the action scene started seemed to be quite compelling.
Does he really think Sasuke will have a change of heart by his words and not by Naruto's words?

Naruto 620
Hashirama continues to be awesome by basically shrugging off Oro control without a care. Actually looking forward to the flashback fight next chapter.
Bleach 526
Chapter was bad. Kenpachi plowing through Unohana's Bankai was alright though. I kinda do hope Unohana is actually killed off.
RealPG 14
Really felt like the manga is ending soon after reading the chapter.
Zenkichi Box 182
I still have to catch up to this since I left off at the beggining of the Jet Black Wedding, so I don't know what's going on, much less who everyone is yet.
That said I had to comeback just to see Zenkichi's time to shine! Let's just hope he doesn't screw it up.
Also it only took me 1 scene and that Nienami girl is already a personal favorite of mine.

But that ending wouldn't be FRESH now would it?
Zenkichi Box 182
While not as good as Kumagawa Box, still looking forward to Zenkichi being the star again
Also I agree with the "this seems like the finale" sentiments. I really can't see us having another arc with a villain even more powerful then the FRESH maker
[Shingeki no Kyojin]
Lots of people had predicted that one (and the other one), actually.
I don't get it. What did I miss?

Maybe it's starting to dawn on people that Attack on Titan isn't a good manga.

Get Inside Her!
Tobirama just saying that Orochimaru clearly perfected the Edo Tensei, and "this time" brought them back virtually fully-powered. As if to say that their previous resurrection vs the 3rd was incomplete.

The manga is only 15 chapters (3 volumes) long.
Ah. Gotcha. Thanks.
Makes me wonder who killed Hashirama. Probably some nobody with a random kunai to the back.
Naruto B
Decent chapter, hopefully the flashback satisfies as it could cover some really interesting ground and actually expand on Naruto lore.
Bleach F
Wow, that was worse than I expected it to be. Just garbage. Where did the love thing come from? Kubo really pulled this one out of his ass. Hey Kubo, ever heard of foreshadowing and build-up? Apparently not.

Shingeki No Kyogin 42:
Now I know how the FMA folks felt back in the day complaining about spoilers. That week early spoiler discussion disguised as normal chapter discussion just messed up the whole chapter. Not even going to write impressions cause it wouldn't be fair to the chapter. The chapter was good though.
Gantz 377:
Interesting, I figured the story was just based in the "present" with no actual time frame. Wonder how the invasion affected the US election in Gantz time?

Already hungering for another chapter. The reveal was ok, I chalked it up to Ryner being mentally unsettled after the last stand at the tower.
It's nice that the huge titan and the armored titan were sort of painted as these unknown, dangerous 'inside' people, but it turns out they might not be after all.
That said, I'm surprised Kurita outlasted some of you in not changing his avatar. Neoriceisgood's reign must come to an end, eh?

Sasuke is younger than Orochimaru, why wouldn't he? Hasn't he used Naruto kun before too?
Hasn't he always said that? It was just in a sinister and predatory way before, whereas now he's just oddly submissive.

It does kind of suck having this be in Jump because we'll never get to see all that the female characters have to offer in this series. Other then that it's fantastic easily the best new thing Jump has started since Assassination Classroom.

He probably choked on a dumpling or something like that. Would be fitting.
Hell has frozen over.
Yeah, he did. Like "I'm gonna rape you, sasuke-kun."
haha Very Bush-like.
Even Stat can't deny this chapter was garbage.
