I guess when your series gets a major movie release in theaters, you get the WSJ cover two issues in a row for cool shit like this:

Where's my One Piece double cover, Shueisha? I would probably import the issues if it was really good. Jump is like what, £3?]


EDIT: Triple?!

When you have the creator of the most popular manga in history supervise a movie you should expect it to be ridiculously advertised.

How did you even have that picture that large on standby so quickly?
I have all sort of shit saved in my OP folder =D

If you don't want to import the older ones with the Strong World covers, I expect Shueisha will do something similar at the end of the year when the new OP movie is about to hit the cinemas, Oda will supervise it as well.

I just looked through the raw for the new One Piece this week.

Nothing too special yet besides who has who's heart. Hopefully the story will start moving at a better pace again in a week or two.

I'm sure that the shipping would make it pretty expensive.
It costs like 6€ in France, and only one store sells it in Paris.

One Piece 675:

Guess I should have known Oda wouldn't have made it so easy for Vergo to beat Law if he had Luffy and co taken out the way they were by Ceasar. There may be still a chance Vergo is a decent opponent, but after the heart reveal I'm not expecting much from him anymore. The chapter ending was a bit anti climatic, but the rest of the chapter was fine. Still waiting for Franky to wake up and bust the Luffy out of jail.

Caribou capturing the mermaids the new running gag now?
What a shitty deal Law has agreed upon with, why would anyone trade his own heart against one of some secretary and not the one of his opponent.

One Piece:

Decent chapter, but this Smiley thing is really being drawn out. Just get on with it Oda. Vergo using Law's heart is pretty lame, and makes me wonder how strong he actually is. Also Law's kind of a dumbass for ever agreeing to give Caesar his heart.

And it seems like Caribou is having his way with the mermaids on Fishman Island. lol

Naruto

Pure, unadulterated fighting! I've always been a sucker for these types of chapters. It was hard to make out what was going on, but after reading it again I could fully understand the fight. Tobi is insanely strong haha... even with the combined might of Naruto, Gai, Kakashi and Bee he's still bobbing & weaving like it's nothing. Can't wait to see what happens next.

Great chapter.

One Piece

It seems like everything is going wrong for the straw hats. Caesar's plan is coming to fruition, they're split up (Luffy and his party being jailed) and Caesar's monster has been unleashed. I'm looking forward to how Oda turns this situation around (maybe team Sanji saves the day...?) Anyway it was a good chapter that was packed w/ info. It's a shame we had a break prior to this one and there's likely going to be another break in the coming weeks.

Bleach

Bleach is fucking stupid. I lost interest when Kenpaichi wank reached critical levels. Oh and Rukia's out cold already? Greeeeat. I hate how kubo always makes him out to be a stronger fighter than Ichigo. Bullshit.

Bleach feels like its 10 pages in comparison to Naruto and OP... seriously 3-4 big panels a page? What garbage.

Smiling for a shadow clone and rasengan? lol. Pretty fast and nice chapter that will no doubt be much more stunning animated, which hopefully they reach relatively quickly. The flying rocks added to the intensity making it even more of a chaotic fight. Guy ought to have used Asakujaku, though. I think they will require Sasuke's assistance to fight and defeat Tobi, or either Madara will step in. Some type of power up is necessary.
 
Excellent fight.It was almost too fast pace for my eyes to catch all the hidden tactics.That seemed all in 30 seconds real time.Great job this chapter.

What the fuck? Why would you wait until the last fucking day to start a long-distance relationship when you were there for a few months? Fucking start it in person and then continue long distance. Jesus christ. And he was stupid enough to accept.

Is this the tip of the iceberg? Will I be raging more as I continue?

Not just likely. Next week is a double issue. No Jump for you, no sir.


One Piece

Well at least Virgo did the smart thing, but that wasn't the most confident way to go about that.
But, he does look methodical and calculative enough to act like that even if he's strong. I'm guessing he's good stuff, but not final VSs material?

Really don't care about the experiment right now since, it's, uh, an experiment. There will barely be casualties if any at all. It was blow right up for all I care. It's (horiz- wait no) in the middle of nowhere.

And yeah things are pretty messed up right now but well, that's sorta how it is every arc before the climax. Everyone are either too far away or out or captured, and then things still work out.
 
Hells Yeah !! Kenpachi show that bad ass Shikai!! I had that song "Time to play the game " from Motorhead in my head on that last panel.

Cool fight. It's nice to leave the whole Kabuto thing behind, talk about a snooze-fest. Hopefully they don't skip over the Madara fight too.

Bleach

Kenpachi, hell yeah!
You have no chance.
I just hope they don't do that thing where Kenpachi gets his ass handed to him, he shows something new, but still gets his ass handed to him.

OP

Still not sure what Law's looking for. I guess this means he can't go full force if they have his heart. Also, where's KID?

I can't believe Law would actually make such a stupid decision.

Naruto

Can't tell what the hell is happening, but at least epic troll Obito reveal should come soon.

Bleach

If Byakuya actually died.......

Kubo is playing for keeps I see. Kenpachi has no shot at winning, though.

Naruto:

WTF was going on? Need to add some color in that crap so i can understand whats happening.

I'm not even sure what order i should read the panels in anymore.
 

BatDan

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
One Piece

I get the feeling this is somehow part of Law's plan. I don't think he'd do something that stupid without having a reason. There's gotta be a reason right?

I do think that Franky can break them out at any time, but they're staying around to learn more.

Bleach

No, he's not dead. If he was, we have the Dragon Boobs to heal him. False tension.

Well that was an tragic end to Byakuya. With Kubo killing off now a fan favorite character, I can only hope and pray that Hitsugaya isnt next. I think that event would potentially be closest to the hardest hitting moment in Bleach since that time in Las Noches when Ichigo had that hole blasted through his chest. I can only imagine that pain that Byakuya fans must be going through.

Unfortunately I do not have as high hopes as you all do with the anticipation that through some miracle he will somehow spring back to life. He has already uttered his last words and apologies and instilled his will in both Renji and Rukia. So, it seems just impossible to think he has anything left to offer the world. I do not recall any such writer having characters do the same thing and spring back to life, so I imagine it wont be something Kubo will do.

Ichigo shall have a difficult time and hopefully Renji gets back in action, great moment of him trying to do something, so a second chance must be given.

It's kinda wierd that Byakuya never tried to pull off any kido moves in this fight. He seemed to be pretty good at it when he used it in his other major battles, and now that he lost his bankai kido seemed like it was worth a shot.

The goal was to kill him off, to make the scene look cool. I guess some could argue that it shows the difference in strength, but ehhhh.
 
OP
Law making that deal with CC came back to bite him in the ass guess he really want whatever is on that island .
I hope slim does more stuff next week .
 
Naruto

Naruto (the manga) can be terrible at times, but when it comes to fights Naruto (the manga) is amazing. I love all the strategies and team work that Kishi puts in his fights.

Bleach

Bye-kuya. Not the healing squad, Unohana, Hacchi or Orihime can help him now. RIP Kenpachi you will be destroyed in the next 2-3 chapters.

one piece

Law is dumb for making that deal.

KHR

Yeah boy. The fight was short but good strategy by Tsuna and co. Next week´s fight will be epic.

It was stated many times already. Nothing can touch the Stern Ritters except bankai. That´s why they have sealed it.

About Law, am I missing something here? He was obviously shafted on the deal yeah, but he wasn't exactly on the most equal grounds to begin with. Like Caesar said he was stronger than Law and could make the rules or Law would be kicked out.

Kubo has forgotten Kido exists.

Tbh I have always been disappointed that Kido doesn't play a larger part in bleach cause at times it can be much more interesting and cool compared to the standard bleach fights.
