Sounds like a bad game then if all you can do is lose.
It says a lot when I can read this comment and immediately know, "Ah, someone must have gotten to that Haganai chapter."
Kyojin have this dreadful feeling of grossly overpowered giants that it took a whole team to kill one, and the human keeps on the defensive side that humanity practically did not make any advancement since years ago. Not to mention that the human side's plans seem to always fail for various unforeseen reasons.
Premises may be similar (don't know about Ragnarok Odyssey though!) but I'm pretty sure execution is a whole different thing.
Mecha x mecha to be exact.
I've learned so much from this chapter alone. Like what seme and uke is.
I haven't been keeping up with the manga and still immediately knew that Rika was up to her usual stuff.
I really wish this manga was more "age appropriate" and I wouldn't mind reading it.
You should have known that already.
Unfortunately.

Not entirely sure whether this chapter was incredibly profound or whether the translator's lost his marbles.

I bet Rion wrote her own name down (or they discussed it among themselves). Lolicon trio to the rescue!

Well the last arc is like a fanfic. But I'm a fanboy so I enjoyed the fuck out of it.
And how!
It's really only the last arc, with is pretty tacked-on and totally skippable. You could easily just read up to the Christmas Bowl and then skip to the final chapter, if you wanted.

I read Eyeshield 21, and the only reason i did not drop it was because Yoichi Hiruma. One of the funniest characters in manga.
They should have ended the manga after the christmas bowl though.

Disgraceful deviation from the canon material.
Because the original blowtorch is vastly superior.
Everyone wants to be like Aizen
Looks like Ginjo. Oh wait-
Some matches are pretty intense too.

Slam Dunk is the best sports shounen ever written and probably the best shonen ever written, only challenged by REAL but REAL is more seinin than sports manga at time.
A sports manga can be shounen or seinen.
Like you said though, basketball is just an excuse to tell REAL's story. It plays a big part to be sure, but it's definitely not the primary focus of the comic. Which reminds me that I need to order vol 4, 5, and 6.
Absolutely, the last match alone is better than most other sports manga. E21 is also pretty good. Never really got in Ippo.
dis gun be good
I need to watch Gobusters.
Somebody who watches anime and reads manga with fujoshi characters. They never shut up with that stuff. Even Gahara gives us a run-down Bakemonogatari joking around, IIRC.

Don't get me wrong, I read Slam Dunk and almost cried during the last match, but I still prefer Ippo. I caught up with the manga in one hell of a week and it was rollercoaster ride of emoties filled with intense matches that easily exceeded every match in the anime adaptions covered.
Ippo became a manga which I have to see through to the end no matter how many chapters will keep coming. As a matter of fact I would probably stop reading it if there was an ending.

I only really read Ippo and Eyeshield. Started Slam Dunk but got distracted. Gotta read it again one day. That baseball one shot Kishimoto did was better than the entirety of Naruto post timeskip.

I am Korean.
I tend to enjoy Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru more than Ippo lately.
Well it's the thought that counts. It's like OP, the peak of epic has been a while ago.
I'll put Minoru on my list that never stops growing.
I personally like this and All Rounder Meguru to current Ippo.
No doubt, but his wording made it seem like sports comics exist only in the shounen realm.
Can Mecha BL even count as proper BL? Also, the last part of this post was gibberish to me.
Enies Lobby > Dat Punch
I don't know...but all I was saying was that fujoshi characters use that terminology all the time in manga/anime.
This girl
in this anime
made a fujoshi joke with those terms.

Looks like the Fran impressionist is beginning to make her move.
Also Choujin Gakuen 13 is out, paging cosmicblizzard.
'ed pretty hard as well. Not as bleak as the bad ending of course, but then few things are.

Yeah II remember the first time I finished Tsugumi's route in Ever17.
'ed pretty hard as well. Not as bleak as the bad ending of course, but then few things are.She's more of a lunatic. But it will require a serious round-table discussion to decide if she is a fujoshi. We would first have to discuss if robots have a sex.
But nevertheless, fujoshi are the ones who use those terms, Rika aside. With embarrassment on my side since I've lost count on how many series I've experienced with fujoshi about. Reading shoujo doesn't help the situation. Or is that yaoi? Or both? I forget...guh. :/
I said before that this thread should be nothing but images. I now feel that that may have been a shortsighted idea.

The fuck? So um... is that black man the villain? Does the main hero triumphantly defeat him with sheer guts and determination? lol.
