Delicious nightmare fuel is delicious.
Madness powers are badass.
It's funny how the "main" character Maka is the most bland and forgettable character of the whold group. Any other character is better than her.

I won't even bother trying to figure out the kanji puns. I'll just accept everything that happens.
Also, that's probably the hardest ability to figure out from just seeing its effects. I don't think anyone would have ever found that out without heavy hints. But I might be biased since I'm not Japanese.

I always thought it was strange that he didn't share Luffy's surname, for one, even though Luffy pretty much established beforehand that him an Ace were brothers. When "Monkey" D. Garp was introduced, something was up.
Though my point is that once we find out the truth about the Lost Century and whatnot, a lot of shit we've seen in the series will most likely be pieced together. I don't expect that from Bleach. I never expect that from Bleach cause when it DID piece things together, it still didn't make no sense and was pretty bad.
It's true. There isn't a single decent explanation for something in Bleach, ever. And there never will be. Shit that is actually interesting such as Ichigo's dad will just end up sucking and make no sense.

OK so I've been a little sick and on my 2 days off from work I've been reading Shaman King
Shaman King 240
Why is Chocolove's outfit post err his changes so stupid looking? Man he looked cool with his dress shirt and his Indian/Inca thingy. Ugh, it pains me seeing his hot pants.

Hating on Silver Spoon

ReBurst aside I just thought this chapter of Silver Spoon sucked, not the entire series

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

"I know exactly what's wrong, but instead of telling you about it, I'll just make you look like a jackass in front of everyone by letting everyone else succeed while you fail!"

It's just puns based on how certain symbols are put together to form different words. Like how if you take away the dot in the symbol for ice it is the symbol for water. Easy if you know chinese too, even if I'm rusty.
Thought they explained it pretty well.
Sadly I haven't found anything similar to it. In general when it comes to BL manga, I have found that the internet fanbase likes to overrate them a lot so it's kinda hard to weed out the bad ones. Seven Days was good since it was short, had good pacing and serviceable art.
Ending was good, agree with you there
Toriko always gets the best Jump covers
Yeah, I was following. It's just, the moves themselves are completely disconnected from any sort of functional brain until they're explained (and their explanation isn't something I could figure out myself). So all you can do is accept everything with no reaction.It's just puns based on how certain symbols are put together to form different words.

Why do you even read manga? You hate almost everything and the only things you apparently like you're often only able to articulate as such by comparing it to things you hate.

Oh, well, this is pretty much my default attitude already. It's medaka box we're talking about here.
It has been a while since we did this.
Umm not true at all. Most manga I read tend to be stuff I end up liking, and it's usually the complete inverse when it comes to comparison. Bad manga SHOULD have the ability to articulate the story other, superior manga should.

Reborn never seems to get covers anymore, at least when last I checked.
Pretty sick. Though, I wish Shimabukurou would put more effort into colouring. Some of the recent colourspreads aren't nearly as good as the earlier ones. I'm guessing he has a lot on his plate at the moment though considering how popular Toriko's becoming in Japan.
Edit: The Jump cover is really well coloured though.

Detective Conan:
Fapfapfapfapfapfapfap.
Yeah, this is definitely the climax of the Bourbon arc. We have Gin, Vodka and Vermouth showing up, the organization actually knowing where Sherry is, and a large portion of the players all gathered in one place (I'm sure Okiya is somewhere on the train). I'm really excited to see how everything comes together.
Don't forget the fact that we keep getting replacement members in the Shichibukai. There's no end to future antagonists/rivals for the characters to face, and I'm sure we'll get a lot of new groups in the New World.
I think Conan ends first. The plot is a lot further along than One Piece is. I could see One Piece running for another 20 years, and that's difficult to see in the case of Conan. I think Conan probably ends within the next 10 years.

There was also something similar in Fairy Tail. I don't think either were this bad though.

I wasn't lying, I haven't been involved in manga politics since that day and stay well away from the usual channels. Ignorance is bliss, I don't want to know what latest assfuckery is going on between the groups these days. Doesn't meant I'm going to stop reading TWGOK before everyone else. Having served in the position I did, I do get some retirement benefits.

Flame of Recca 18 - 37
The arc with the other flame user who is supposedly Recca's brother was actually pretty nice. The only other fighter in the series I like is Tokiya Mikagami (water knight), I think hes pretty cool overall. Best moment was when Kagehoshi arrived and made Recca take off the arm band and the glorious eight dragons popped out, mindblown.

I like how being a peeping tom is always presented as common comic mischief in manga, despite the fact its a pretty serious crime pretty much everywhere. Naruto would probably be on the Konoha sex offender list.

Tokyo Girls Destruction
This is incredibly stupid. I'm not sure if I'm willing to accept the concept of having girls beating the shit out of each other as "so stupid it's good" or "so stupid it sucks"
They definitely need to shift focus away from the "drama" and the stupid sister story and focus more on comedy.

I dont think this series focus in comedy and the sister plotline is important.
That's my problem with it, it's a dumb concept and they are all taking it to seriously and focusing too much on betrayal and other sister related garbage. They should have straight up made this a comedy manga and it would be much better.
Cosmic is indeed the shounenbro. But that doesn't exclude him from taste criticism! Also there's no reason we can't be both shounen/smut readers. survivor is like the merging between both races. It's like when Zeratul discovered the Zerg/Protoss hybrid.
True TWGOK fans don't have single character allegiances. We work to build our own harem.

Nice closure. Is this the first time Katsuragi cries in the series?
Kongou Banchou
Dude Hakai Banchou is crazy powerful but the best moment was the Kongou statue.

The fight is over but I dont feel satisfied, it was easy.

I really liked this chapter!
Interesting to see Keima actually care about something for once,
I guess it's cause after all was said and done he realised this
might've been the first genuine crush a girl has had on him? or what?
Tears for Chihiro are the only real tears anyway.

For everyone following Naruto, I have a question:
Have zombie Kimimaro and Chiyo done anything yet? I remember seeing them way back at the beginning of all of this Edo Tensei stuff and don't remember them doing anything.
