Jojoveller, a 200 pages Jojo artbook, featuring illustrations from Stone Ocean, SBR and Jojolion will come out on September 19th.
It will come in a box with two booklets (the first one features explanations about every stand by Araki, while the second one features behind the scenes, talks with editors...) and two Blu-Rays (one is about Jojoten, the other one focuses on Araki's studio).
I hope your wallet is ready because it'll cost 20.000 yens.

Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Naruto

I really liked this flashback, but Madara's reaction was incredibly stupid and out of nowhere.
"Oh no, I need to warn my friend and protect him! ... Oh the other hand ... fuck that loser."

Seeing Tobirama shitting his pants because of his brother is always fun, though.

Its stupid because the point of the flashback should be explaining something about Madara and the Uchiha, not merely showing us stuff we could already figure out on our own (i.e. Madara is an asshole.)

So that means there's some special sauce from butterfly Aizen that instakill people or something?

Naruto

Not bad.
Did Tobirama just use the Hiraishin from the 4th Hokage?

I don't think so. I think it was just a similarly named technique (it didn't appear anything like Flying Thunder God) and many translators have an unfortunate tendency to just leave random words untranslated causing confusion.

Cut to Sasuke replying "that doesn't answer my question... like, at all".
Then, you'll just have to wait for Madara's own flashback, obviously completely new and different.

Sasuke's reaction to the story should be hilarious, but it won't be.

Also, all Uchiha's were assholes.

Naruto: F

Stupid. Really bad.

The two most powerful ninja (other than 6th sage god) get their flashback and the fight is done like this:

"After a full day of fighting. Madara laid down.

*love*

*grrr*

*love*"

Naruto is ALL WAYS at its worst when dealing with Uchiha bullshit.
Which is like 90% of the time.

Things are getting exciting, I wonder what luffy's gonna do about the df.

also how would oda handle the colosseum? there's no way they will fight there by the rules.

$200 seems insane to me for just 200 pages.

Not bad too but I hope they don't get in the ridiculous trope of having Luffy care about Ace's DF or something.
That would be bad and stupid.

Good chapter, I wonder if we'll see Zoro fighting with only two swords.
I guess everyone saw the coliseum thing coming.
 
Sleeping Beauty no Mita Yume 1-6 (END)

I need some kind of stock post for these average collections of short yuri stories. The memory loss one was the most enjoyable; having a second part from the other girl's perspective was a nice touch, even though it didn't add much that couldn't be inferred from the first part. Otherwise, business as usual.

Added to backlog. Wait, it was already there.
 

Pie and Beans

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
One Piece
Blind guy is either an ex-Admiral or something to satisfy a "Justice... is blind" moment, or he could be Ace's uncle or something (on the Portgas side).

Naruto
So Hokage has worked out the "cycle of revenge" if he kills Madara but is gearing up to kill himself knowing his brothers a bit of an asshole and probably going to take it A BIT PERSONALLY. Hurrrrr durrrrrrr.

Not all of them. The time when Obito and Sasuke met the first time was pretty bad. Not to forget about the Obito/Madara flashback.

It's the Uchiha curse, the more Uchiha the more shitty it gets.
That's why the war with 2 Uchiha is worse than flashback with Sasuke because he's only 1 Uchiha.
 
Naruto

Madara needs to go ly down forever. Dat Hashirama rage when trying to touch his love lol.

One Piece

Just a set up chapter, blind guy looking to be an admiral.

lmao at Caribou being some sort of Che Guevara.

I really liked the first half of Naruto(though I watched the anime
twice
, so I can't comment on the manga) but at this point in part 2 I have almost no motivation to read it. Hurts, man.

Fuck it. Instead of Naruto, I'm starting 7 Seeds.

Still bleh, fuck this flashback.

One Piece
Setup chapter, the coliseum is kinda exciting but hopefully there's no full tournament arc.
lol Che Caribou
 
One Piece

I guess Senor Pink is Señor Pink. Japanese still don't know about our ñ.

Anyway, pretty boring chapter. But I guess one of those necessary in the serie to prepare things.
 
Naruto

I did like medara's ultimatum of "kill your brother or yourself and I will join your ninja village" even if we know the resolution for it will be stupid just like how medara's sharigan activated. Giving up his love of a friend what the fuck.

One piece

Old man is for sure an admiral, luffy of course wants to win ace's devil fruit. Other then that just a boring set up chapter.

Not seeing the point of the flashback, and to top it off, they skipped the fight between Madara and Hirashima.

One Piece

Yaay~ a tournament arc I'm not looking forward to.
 
Kishimoto really blew it on this flashback. I mean, what the fuck.

Yeah, I was pretty disappointed. I got the complains from people who didn't really care about it, but I saw it as a chance to flesh out the relationship between Hashirama and Madara a bit more and what lead to the huge fight in the Valley of the End and I liked it until this chapter. Now he might as well didn't bother.

Koisuru Edison 15/16 (1/2) - First Ranking
World Trigger has been placed in a surprisingly good position, maybe editorial thinks it is doing well? I thought it would hang at the bottom like the rest of new series before actual ranking showed that that is exactly where it would have gone.

I'm more surprised that Koisuru isn't dead last though.

Cirque Arachne 1-6 END


A neat little single volume yuri story about two circus performers coming together. It could've used a few more chapters to flesh out the romance some more but it wasn't bad for what it was.

I swear that girl on the bottom left corner looks very familiar but I haven't read anything by the same artist. Oh well, will read this cause the cover looks great.

I'm not a fan of Araki's art for the manga, especially the battle scenes, but man his colour pages are beautiful. Gonna have to get my hands on this artbook somehow.

Lol at Edison's first ranking.
Assassination Classroom... bisonyes.gif

@survivor : Wait for the box without the blu-ray. If you're not a fan of Jojo they are kind of pointless.
