I think I'd take out the polar star losers. Meat and Takumi also exist in that nebulous state where they're kinda-rivals (not really), are in love with Yukihira (but not in that totally-viable romance echelon, occupied by Erina, Tadokoro, and Hisako), and where they're not good enough to be prominent at all going forward. Once we see more of the council members I expect them to be phased out like the polar stars.

Polar Star losers, Meat and Takumi/Isami seem to be not able to keep up with the other ones so I guess so, I doubt Takumi/Isami will be dropped though
Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
My guess is Hisako just makes her and she acts tsun the entire time.
The most relevant thing Takumi has done is lose in a way that pissed Soma off.
nah Alice will take the Yamcha role.

Alice is such a fun character when they aren't trying to present her as a serious threat.

nana to kaoru
due to nana to kaoru arachi ending, any sense of suspense or intrigue NTK had is gone for me.
we already know how things end. and it wasn't even that extensive in difference from where the manga was/started.
so all this hand wringing and nana angst is nothing more than inane drama for the sake of drama. and it has really bogged things down.
the allure of seeing Nana's Nanas was always a more subdued selling point, but not even that was guaranteed, as seen in Arashi.
end this crap and continue with Puppy Lovers already.

The fallout from the Ida vs. Stain encounter. Ida is pretty much a goody two-shoes but its clear he's out for blood here. He doesn't intend to arrest Stain (or at least if the opportunity arises to kill Stain he'll take it). So does this encounter (or this arc as a whole) represent Ida's rise to the mantle his brother once held? Does it mark the start of his transition to an anti-hero? Does he come out of this a villain (vigilantism can't be tolerated here, if he actual kills Stain he won't be able to be a hero anymore). Will his actions lead to jail time? Will his actions lead to his death (unlikely but that would be a ballsy move)?
From Deku's words (past tense and all), something BIG happens here (if we just get back to the status quo than the author is a hack fraud confirmed) that will leave a lasting impact on Ida and his friends (like Deku). We just don't know what that is and any one of those possibilities I mentioned can have big repercussions for future plotlines and character developments.

Jojo Part 5 End
What? Was that really the ending, I mean what the fuck happened overall? Is Polnareff dead or is he living with turtle from now on? Also so did Giorno suddenly take over the Buisness and all? I'm spinning in circles right now because that ending was left much to be desired. It didn't feel conclusive to the overall story, it just felt out there.
Also you thought The World was hax or The Crimson King was hax but noooo. The Gold Experience Requiem is on a totally totally different level. It has the ability to fucking turn everything including a opponents attacks and willpower to a state of zero. He can pretty much make a opponent go through death multiple times. This Stand is unbelievably hax and here I thought Crimson King was hax but this one is too invincible. That asspull.
I can see why so many people say this Stand is one of the strongest if not strongest in the series. Anyway overall Part 5 wasn't too bad, it was pretty enjoyable with all the Stand fights. It's probably one of the weakest Part but in no way was it terrible, still it could of been more. I'll probably do a full write up later on about Part 5.

GER is the de facto strongest. It's akin to that button Coop presses in Mega XLR that just makes him win

Stain looks like a total Beast compared to Ida; Ida's power isn't even that good to begin with so he better not win in some bullcrap way.
Yeah I'm waiting for it to be translated. Didn't flip through it, but I hope it'll go a bit further with its premise.
It's the little things like these that makes it worth reading.
I always thought GER was hilarious in how broken and blatantly a deus ex machina it was.

Yeah Polnareff is alive, just in the turtle. Yes, Giorno is the boss now.
To me, thematically GER makes sense. If King Crimson's basic idea was "erase the cause, keep the effect," then GER is "keep the cause, erase the effect." Ok I get that. But in the end it's still funny how it basically amounts to "nuh-uh you didn't win." It's such a simple idea that I genuinely think Araki didn't even realize he created possibly the most broken power in fiction.

Truly tragic news. May he rest in peace.

That's what makes this kind of weird for me. If his bro was dead, sure, avenge away, but he's still alive and kicking. Since I guess he's crippled and/or unable to hero anymore, I'd figure a good ass beating would suffice.
I guess since his brother was crippled with the intent to kill, I'd be kind of pissed too.
I guess I changed my tune while typing up this post.

Kazuki Makes Love Happen At ALL BOYS High School END
How you write a BL manga and make him end up with a girl in the end. Awful. Awful. Awful. Why cant writers in mainstream things go the full distance and give us a fully well done canonical BL in high school relationship. This is as bad as Satoshi ending up with Mayaka and not with Houtaro in Haikyuu, cause the writer was afraid of going the BL route when it was practically canon. No one will believe that Kazuki likes Yuhi and wouldnt keep thinking about Yu. This is unacceptable.

Yeah, I would expect a thing called Kazuki Makes Love Happen At ALL BOYS High School to have a BL ending and would probably be disappointed if it didnt

If i'm gonna start to read JoJo, should i go at it from chapter 1 or just skip straight to jotaro kujo? Because that early stuff is rough, yeesh.

"Why no, i won't mention how you've supposedly just drawn and quartered two kids to secure your position as king. Why would I? It's not like i'm the idiot that acted surprised when soldiers pillaged cities."

Early stuff has it's charm, just really rough art (although I personally really like bombastic manly 80s manga art). I suppose if you've seen the anime it isn't a requirement, but if you're going in fresh then yeah you should probably read it from the start because of some important plot stuff in part 1, and the overall excellence of part 2.
Told you not to read it. I don't mind anyways as for it seemed Yu wasnt really into kazuki for me anyways. Kazuki actually tried but I didnt feel i see same effort from Yu.
Yuhi is fine for kazuki and his suffering finally ends. Better end now than go to tje depths of toudouin suffering imo.
Would also like to say rip iwata. The bob-ombs will never be dropped again.
That's... an interesting title.
