Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Well maybe dosn't fit HBO portfolio but the manga (as other Kurasawa works) has a interesting premise for a show and dosn't seem an expensive endeavor.

Maybe they're gonna give it a darker tone. (I hope not).

I mean, how do you do that? Nina shower scenes?
 
As I said in the topic-thread, I don't see it making a lot of sense on HBO anyways. Monster doesn't have any sex or violence in it that's too intense for TV, which is one of those things that HBO apparently goes out of its way to find.

As if HBO has a problem with bolting on some tits randomly.

Geez, Setsuno seems really angry. I don't like how her chances are looking though.

Also I've officially lost track of pretty much everyone's motivations in this jumble (well aside from self defense where it applies). Why would those guys want to kill Setsuno?

They are attacking her because they are a bunch of bitches, serious answer she is on IGO side and since she is the only one there that can make every run they are ganging up on her to take her out.

But I hear all of the anime isn't officially available in English. What's up with that?
I'm pretty sure you can find it on various streaming legal sites but keep in mind the English version really butchered the soundtrack which was a large part of the Anime series.

And the Swagamoto hype continues.

I guess all ten volumes of Attack on Titan will definitely pass 1 mlns, respectively even those mid volumes that were lagging behind. Guess the anime is a definite success, assuming bd sales...I wonder if it will do the BLue Exorcist route, adapt an arc, then just filler end and thats it for years.

I wish it were in english.

Kodomo no Jikan END

This ended pretty much the way I thought it would. Everyone gets a happy ending. I really enjoyed reading this series even if some chapters got a bit too uncomfortable even for me. I hope the authors next work is as good but I also hope it has less lolis. 9/10

It's finally over. No trolling, no insanity, it's just over. I suppose in the end that was the biggest troll of all, we expected a troll and there was none. Bravo Nisio, bravo.

No extravagance, no outlandishness, no Kumagawa showing up to cause chaos or Ajimu dropping by to break the fourth wall. Just a simple ending for a series that bathed in absurdity.

In a way it's both a fitting conclusion and still the biggest possible troll Nisio could have done.

Well done, Nisio. Well done.

I'm still pissed we never got to see adult Nienami

Medaka Box 192 [END] - Huh ... it ... just ended like that.

Huh.

And no trolling?

...

Yeah, there's another chapter coming. Has to be.

Pretty much my sentiments right here. KnJ showed some promise in her writing ability for sure and the ending was pretty satisfying all things considered.

Anyways pretty okay ending. Kinda overstayed its welcome towards the end but I'll miss it all the same.

A boring ending to an otherwise great series. I'm glad it ended now rather then dragging it out even more. I hope both Nisio and Akatsuki do another series together in the future. 8/10

Wasn't that adult Nienami holding Kikajima's baby?
 
I've just been assuming that they were all Ghost Nazis. It would be weird if they were still alive: what with all the last of the quincy talk and the fact that they don't age. Not sure where they've all been hanging out this entire time though.

Eh, Ryuuken definitely aged. The last quincy talk i always perceived as the Ishida´s way of being quincy aka the true way of being quincy. Or else Soken Ishida would fear another quincy shinigami war in his flashback with Uryuu.

That's Naze I think

Medaka Box 192 (END)
That was sweet, definitely one of the better manga endings I've known, the credits page was a nice touch. Congrats on the marriage Zen, you'll become a fine bride. I'll wait until GLK before calling Nisio a troll for not showing us Nienami and Ajimu, Kumagawa certainly has to appear in his own story right? :lol
 
Bleach

Everything but the rain part one had a rain drop in the title page. Everything but the rain part eight the rain drop hit the ground which could mean that the flashback is done. I doubt it though the flashback should include Ichigo´s birth, but maybe that´s in another flashback.
