YAWN

Ask me which Shakespeare novel is best
So FT won the tournament or watevs?
Nice to see it's as predictable as always. Did that psycho chick from the other Dragon Slayer's team do anything good at least?
 
Fairy Tail 322

First Kishimoto and now even Mashima, why force these hand holding moments in and Chelias comments :/. Anyway really awesome chapter just for Sting, just seeing him so dedicated to his Lector and then tearing up so much really made that part emotionally moving. So many tears of joy there makes it best non action moment of the arc.

Nakagamis armor of sorts feels like a high level cheat and even that aoe for it,however it is a cool concept. I think I prefer less bulky armor though, flame pants is probably the best exquip in the series.

Mashima also has great page spreads, epic pose for Gray in the Fairy Tail lineup scene.

Darin's dad is pretty fucked up. It's funny how in a series about love with undead people, this is the first time actual necrophilia was implied.

Why does every single female character have breasts larger than a porn star unless its for absolute comedy value in which case they are only porn star sized

Bigger boobs = more sales.

Not just a victory, a flawless victoly.

Whereabouts in Fairy Tail does the story start starts shifting into the well loved "masterpiece" its known for now days?

I've only flipped through the first 3 volumes at a friend's house a while ago, but could never get into it due to being a bit dull at the start (the general opinions on the internet didn't help either).

So is Swagamoto the next collective read? I don't know if it's quite on par with Kurosawa/Molester/One-Punch.
I don't know about it being on par with those series or not but it sure caught fire more quickly than them. It definitely deserves a place on the banner in the next thread.

If you intend to start Fairy Tail. Start with the anime instead of reading the manga. I only read the manga to find out what happens next. IIRC, the anime ads more to the story than the manga.

Trust me, the soundtrack and the voice-acting take any sense of dullness out of it.

Don't waste your time with this manga.
 
I honestly thought Swagamoto was an older manga. I could've sworn people in here read it a while ago. I guess I'm confusing it with some other manga.

It's exactly the same from 1 to whatever chapter they are on now.

Yep i also think FT anime better than the manga .
Plus the OSTs for it is awesome , my favorite for any long running shonen show .

The fanservice is toned down a lot in the anime, although you can't really make Lucy and/or Erza anything other than a fanservice machine in the first place.

An FT episode was on TV a few days ago, I saw Lucy and some girl with blue hair fighting a guy with his guitar and turning the blue hair girl into a slutty demon. Then Lucy fought them wearing only her bra.

Cringe worthy.

That was Juvia and Juvia is the only thing about FT that's any good

Not sure how many people follow Boon's blog so heads up! He's now translating the Molester Man 2ch threads, post by post (and it's updated automatically as he translates every post, pretty cool).

Everyone in VIP, no, in 2ch, please hear me out.
The other day, I was totally mistaken for a molester.
And I don't mean it as a joke, I was actually mistaken for one.
Haha oh man

Berserk 89-109

Huh.

Well, Griffith is a fucking jerk. What a crab, fucking ol' boys girl in front of him.

The way Gutts lost his arm was nice. I'm surprised Caska lived through all of it, even if she's broken for now.

Overall, I think this was an interesting way to write this entire set up. What a flashback. What a tremendous amount of character development. It was great, really.

Griffith is such a dick, though. :lol

That's where I'll stop for now.
Griffith is a big jerk! All that nonsense about having a good reason for doing it is nonsense. That part is just nonstop craziness.

The flashback is all about character development (understatement) but from now on, Berserk steps on the worldbuilding gas pedal hardcore (especially compared to the flashback where it was intentionally iffy), which I think you'll really like!

"Griffith is a big jerk" is a somewhat accurate statement.

Why do I have this weird sneaking suspicion that the new thread is gonna be made while I'm sleeping

Can you link it?
His site also hosts the manga so I avoided it. But I can say how the "scanlation group" is called, so, uh, um. By the way, there's this thing called google, you may have heard of it before. It's pretty cool.

I didn't know about the scanlation group. Thank you.

Any time I think about picking up Fairy Tale, I see one of those little fucking cats taking up pages in a chapter and am all "nope."
