shingeki no kyojin

Caught up. So annie was the female titan? I knew it. Titans on the inside? Humanity is fucked. Titans breaching the wall? It's over. Now we have a talking titan? What the hell is going on?

Talking Titans isn't at all surprising considering the other developments you've mentioned. Titans already exhibited the same level of intelligence as humans, so revealing that Titans can communicate is the next step to humanity learning that they are just completely boned.
 
Woah what? That's way too old.

Nisekoi dropped.
 
I just realized I hold a really fearsome power over you guys, granted to me by the virtue of not saying straight-face jokes often.

I'll make full use of this in the future.

I guess I should've quoted the reactions too so I could further my confusion.
 
TWGOK 182

Too much swag, cannot comprehend
 
I dropped Drifters since chapter 2, nowhere near Hellsing quality. It's also rare for me to drop a manga because it sucks...
 
Completely caught up now with TWGOK, what an enjoyable ride. Keima is a god among us and I cannot decide which of the girls is the best, they are all great. Ok, that's not quite true, Ayumi is my favourite I guess but Yui is the most amusing one.
But what the fuck is going on right now in the story? After such a long and exiting arc, I would have expected some slower chapters to follow.
 
The espada were ranked on riatsu and not strength. Yammy's resurrection is rage which means the angrier he gets the more riatsu he gets. Ichigo is pretty consistent as well. He's no different than any Shonen main battle manga character. I will save my friends blah blah. The quincies have sealed shinigami's bankai. A shinigami's most potent weapon. Of course the shinigami will be corned and suffer casualties. Soken said that there were casualties on both sides in the quincy shinigami war. In Turn Back The Pendelum flashback Shunsui said that the only original captains left was Him, Ukitake, and Yamamoto. Ukitake mentioned Unohana as well. Theres only 2 ways that shinigami captains stop being that. They get promoted to the royal guard or they die in battle. The only exceptions who quit voluntarily is Byakuya's grand father. So yeah, you don't seem to know what consistency means.

Not quite, I distinctively remember Yammy saying he was the strongest espada, and given the fact that he had 2 resurrections I was inclined to believe him. He referred to Ulquiorra and the rest as trash. Ichigo pretty much jumps up from power level to power level without rhyme or reason. In HM, he was easily defeated by Ulquiorra, but was able to keep up him a few (fights?) later? He didn't train or learn a new technique; he fought him the same he fought him before, except this time he wasn't destroyed. Furthermore the fight itself is bullshit because Ichigo shouldn't have turned into a full hollow... and if he did, Hollow Ichigo would be in complete control, not some mindless zombie.

There's also Aizen vs Ichigo. We never did get an explanation as to why Ichigo (who trained for 3 months) could easily overpower aizen at the near peak of his form with that dumb jewel. It's theorized that he gained full power from his hollow form & bankai spirit, but meh that's insubstantial. I've got more issues with Bleach's consistency but I can't be arsed to find them.
 
It was briefly mentioned elsewhere, but the next issue of Bessatsu Shonen on August 9 will have an "important announcement" for Aku no Hana.

It's probably just a picture of a bunch of underwear with the caption "SHIT EATERS"
 
Yugioh Zexal 19

That 5200 Attack Power, wow. The card doesnt even look that strong. One of the minor things I liked was how the legacy card, Seven Tools of the Bandit has managed to stand the test of time and is even present this many generations from the original series. That card is one of the most annoying, on the level of Dark Hole, and Harpie's Feather Duster, oh and of course Mirror Force from the first era of Yugioh, if I recall.

Viz ought to have at least provided the first 18 chapters though, for Alpha...

Yammy is all talk. Kenpachi and Byakuya beat him while fighting each other.
 
Aku no Hana is terrible. I have no clue why I read it. I think it's supposed to be some kind of allegory for sexual frustration or something, but fuck if I know. Plot would have been resolved a long time ago if MC and crazy chick would just have S&M Bondage sex with each other.

None of the reader know why, we just being dragged deeper n deeper to the other side!

Well, since the manga seems to tell us we're all shit eaters, i guess its just normal to keep reading something shitty?
 
Tegami Bachi v 7

Impressive set of chapters. I think these are definitely up there for the most memorable moment of the series. The impressive things she does with her hair and blades, combined with Lag Seeing's shidan and heart was nice. I enjoyed the flashback and the emotion in this series always gets to me. Something about him and the others.

Zazie and Noir even had panel time, Connor too, if only Jiggy Pepper was around.

It's a glorious, nonsensical, train wreck painted in shit. We all know why we're reading it.

I only read it because I'm hoping they figure their shit out and fuck each other and or die horribly.
 
The manga I like gets cancelled. ST&RS, Magico.etc

Story of my life. Scanlators either drop their series and obviously no one wants to license it, so you won't see the ending. Or they take forever to finish it or I simply don't care anymore.

I still weep for Mx0.

I'm still waiting for someone to pick up Imperial Guards

still waiting for pokemon reburst and at least someone to finish ST&RS...I wanna know what happened to Maho!
 
My small list (filled with doubts):

  • KO SEN, cancelled and 4 chapters before cancellation no active groups.
  • Blazer Drive, I don't what's up with this manga.
  • Pyuu to Fuku! Jaguar, they still only covered 2-3 volumes
  • Hunter X Hunter, hiatus everywhere
  • Dragon Zakura, about 1/3 of the series.
  • Gintama, 2 missing volumes (I could see the anime however)

I'm lucky I got to read Yakitate!! Japan.
