(also, will we ever know how/when Hashirama died? it says Tobirama was the one who hid Madara's body, so...?)
.

A better translation said that Zetsu grabbed the body and hid it, before Madara came back to life and created a shadow clone to use as a 'corpse'.
 
Assassination Classroom 91

Interesting mix of characters but its always tiring when manga do this for 15 year olds etc, barely ever IRL seem them that look this way, they could easily be in their twenties, etc. Interestng name choices.

Im kind of leaning towards an Isogai defeat since it would make the midterms all the more suspenseful in trying to get them to overcome it.

I'd like to see the Japanese, because I'm not sure that "better" translation makes much sense... Why even leave a clone if the body was stolen and hidden in the first place?
(incidentally, it's not the first time I see those translations referred to as "the better ones", but they're actually considerably worse more often than not)

Someone has been reading Toriko.

Who the fuck was Zzygg Zoldick?!?!

Also oh my god don freecs omg.

How is this manga so good.
 
Noboseru Karada 1

Really attractive character designs for this bakery and hot baths manga. The famous calligraphy is really forward with his desires in this even making a move within 28 pages. But it is looking to be worth it. The lead seems somewhat attracted, but a bit insecure about his appearance so maybe he can some esteem boost in a relationship with him. Lovely story.

World Trigger is coming in France. Only read one or two chapters but I'll buy it, seems like it got better with the latest chapters no?
 
The Heroic Legend of Arslan 12

These characters need to get to Arslan already and take back the throne. However, the books being 14 volumes, suggests that it would probably take many months for that plot to ever be reached.

So everyone's going to the Soul Palace then. I'm expecting Aizen to show up and say something about it being part of his plan or something all along. Nice to see some other characters show up, but now I feel like we are going to hit fake Karakura Town portion of this arc.

Naruto
Uchiha is seriously OP. Seems like the black zetsu is also some sort of plot no jutsu to try and explain why all this is happening.

"None of this makes any sense..."
"Black zetsu son."

One Piece
Anyone else super excited to see Sabo literally wreck some Marine fools and go toe-to-toe with Fujitora? God I hope we actually get to see that fight play out. Decent setup chapter, but come on Riku, Luffy and crew just saved your ass and brought back all those forgotten toys and you still question why you'd trust him?

HxH
So Gon isn't able to draw out his nen? Also, did I miss a page or something as that seemed like a really odd panel to just thrown in there. Nice reveal with Don btw. Family still trolling around the DC for ages. So hope we run into him later on.

Dude with the sick sister is totally coming back in a body bag too.

Naruto 681
Naruto and Sasuke are still fighting Kaguya. Though, this is end-game, so I expect Kishimoto to have a lot of chapters dedicated to it. There's not really much to say. They fight and Sasuke learns how to make a platform for himself. Then they get ambushed from behind by Kaguya and Black Zetsu traps them. Then it turns out that Black Zetsu is SOTSP's brother. And Kaguya is crying because Naruto & Sasuke are both being brats. We get a little backstory about how Kaguya is the mother of all chakra and hates her children. And then Naruto gets pissed that Kaguya sucks as a mother. Not that that means much to anyone in the Naruto universe. Almost all the parents there are terrible. Kaguya decides to discipline them. Also "there's no popcorn." What's up with that?

Bleach 585
Ichigo fights the 8 Sternritter there. But it turns out that Ichigo coming back from the Soul King's realm was exactly what Bach wanted. 6000 seconds to get to that Soul King. So Ichigo isn't really any sort of key, just his clothes are. Which leaves the question of why Renji, Rukia, and Byakuya didn't open a hole when they dropped down. Though I suppose they dropped down earlier and Ichigo was the last guy to leave. Speaking of which, those three and the remaining allies hold of the Sternritter so Ichigo can go fight Bach. I wonder how the Ichigo and Uryu are going to interact.

One Piece 750
King Riku is apprehensive about pirates helping them. The dwarfs and his daughter manage to convince him with stories of their grandeur. There is a good point about how the Marines and World Government are kind of assholes. Especially since Fujitora was all "We're still 'friends', Doffy. I'll help you out" & "The Marines aren't gods so don't attack Doffy." Rebecca is off to deliver the key to Luffy & Law with Bartolomeo following her so he can Luffy again. The fighters from the coliseum are all rushing to beat up Doffy as well. I was suprised to see them make their way up so fast, especially when Fujitora and the Marines were specifically mention to fight them. Then we see that Sabo is holding off the Marines all by himself. Sabo vs Fujitora? Lots of stuff in this chapter.

That page was pretty. Otherwise more infodumping.

gw minotaurus, doing your one role for the entire tournament probably.

Hmm Ging seems alright (though not much of a dad LOL) and very interesting history.

and i guess this is the "enemy faced with similar origins is just a weak version of what is really there" aka garabge tier compared to these thing.

also i guess with the Freesc surname its a relative of sorts but will it be an ancestor or even Jin's pops/Gons GrandFather (given the life herb).

Appreciating the set-up Togashi is doing here (looks like Gon might be involved after all?)

So maybe we have an explanation for something that bothered me before. Obito sprouted the great tree, and then later Madara sucked up the juubi and summoned the ten-tails, and absorbed it. It seemed like there was a contradiction there, since the tree was sitting right there the whole time, there shouldn't have been a "ten-tails" left to summon, it WAS the tree. But the implication in this chapter is that the ten-tails was in fact both the tree and Kaguya's body. So with the tree sitting around, what Madara actually summoned and absorbed was straight up just Kaguya's body, in ten-tail form. Kaguya's body, separated from the tree, which was likely part of black zetsu's whole plan here, to get them separated so she could be revived.

I was confused about the white zetsu part as well, until I remembered that Kaguya used infinite tsukiyomi in the past as well. So the white zetsus throughout the series were really just the leftover shells from that first time she used it, and black zetsu pulled them out of the gedo mazou. I guess it's kinda unclear if the "cloning" done later by putting Hashirama's cells and Yamato into the statue by Obito was actually doing anything, or if black zetsu was just pulling more shells out of the statue that had already been there.

There are still some things that are unclear here, like why was Kaguya fused with the tree and rampaging against her sons. But things are coming together bit by bit, however confusedly.

Why? WHY DIDN'T YOU BUILD 73 BARRIERS!

It is so weird Renji is being so useful.

Naruto
According to your keikakus was according to my keikaku all along!

One Piece
I was looking forward to Law's backstory but I guess we are saving that for another fight. More pairing off for fights. Fucking Sabo *foams at mouth*

You know what, considering how badly most mangas end, I'll say this is perfect for story.

Short, sweet, and really good romcom with a twist. Read it.
 
One Piece 750:

Disappointed we didn't get the flashback to Doflamingo's brother, but I'm guessing we'll get it once Law faces Doflamingo again. But Sabo is definitely doing a great job as an Ace substitute, though the fact he can hold off an Admiral and all the marines after only having his powers for less than a day is pretty crazy. Otherwise not much else to say about the chapter since it was mostly set up again. Ussop had a nice/funny panel though.

To be fair he was already 2nd in command for the revolutionary before that.

You can't use an after the fact explanation unless it makes sense in some universe. For fuck's sake, Kishi, this is stone cold idiotic.

Man, Minamoto has his big boy pants on even though he came off like an eager virgin. My heart started thumping when he took Semi's bra off. Guess I got a thing for older women as well. Heh.

Naruto 681

lol wut did I just read?
 
Hiatus X Hiatus

Why is this manga so good ?

Weird spelling of "Isaac Netero" btw. Oh well.
I like how "Freccs" is becoming the new "D" of Hunter X Hunter, à la One Piece

Also, Sister guy might go back alive, given Togashi's liking of subverting our expectations and red flags.
 
One Piece
Oh yeah, I'm expecting some hot Sabo action next chapter
am i right?

Bleach
So are we finally going to see Shuhei's (and Yumichika's?) bankai?

Naruto
So can someone explain what's going on lol. I only understood like half of that

Hunter x Hunter'
Wow, I think this chapter sealed the deal on Ging being my favorite character, and I guess Gon really can't
use nen anymore? I expect he'll somehow learn to get it back if he's involved in this arc at all
. I like how they showed Netero and his old crew in the DC a bit too.

ALSO, DON FREECS??? MEGATON

edit: Ging was talking about how the threats in the Dark Continent are greater than the Chimera Ants. Does this mean we'll see creatures with more power than Meruem? Ging would have no way of knowing how strong he was though, and Netero was able to survive in the Dark Continent, so I'm still under the impression that we won't meet a stronger enemy than Meruem, but the enemies in this arc will still be quite strong.

HxH setup so good. Looks like this arc will be everyone minus Killua. I wonder how Leorio and Kurapika will help in the Dark Continent though. Seems like they'd be useless in a place where Netero was like "omfg" I really dug the little bits of info on stuff they found. That Ghost Stone would be so amazing, lol.

Bleach is being Bleach. Big Damn Heroes moments all day, every day.

Naruto is explaining everything again but it's kind of hard to make heads or tails of it without reading the original version and in one full sequence. But it makes sense that Black Zetsu's role was this. Manipulating things from behind the scenes and all that.

You know what's bumming me out after hours of pushing it to the back of my mind. Sasuke's sword is gone. That thing, it was so loyal. Like Sokka's trusty boomerang it always found it's way back somehow. I couldn't even keep track of how sasuke got it back after Madara stabbed him with it.

RIP Faithful Kusanagi

iirc He is travelling with Alluka though so i wouldn't be surprised if he popped up somehow
 
Naruto 681

So the Ten Tails is the Moon. Uh, ok.

Nice history lesson, is this guy Aizen? When's he going to show up?
And the big climactic plan is to use that. Just end already.

Bleach 585

6000 seconds is really specific.
At least these boring fights will soon be over and we can get some Soul King stuff.
And did Renji just save Ichigo? What is this, backwards day?

One Piece 750

3/4 of the way to 1000, a number I'm sure it will make it to.
It's this point in the story and people still think fodder marines are worth half a shit? And that rifles do anything (they never, ever have)
Sabo ready to take on an Admiral, doubt it will happen.

Hunter x Hunter 344

AHA! A ZOLDYCK DID GO WITH NETERO TO THE DARK CONTINENT.
And maybe
Gon actually did lose his Nen. That would be a really interesting twist, but I kind of doubt that.

Really good chapter. All the setup has been really interesting to me. Nice seeing a tiny bit of Gon again. Curious on how much he'll appear in this arc though since this is Togashi.

Possibly the missing Zoldyck that could be seen in episode 264?
And the third member, Linnet Audoble, was one of the Hunters mentioned during the election (episode 326).

well he just says the calamities were more dangerous than the chimera ants, that doesn't necessarily mean there is a stronger creature out there.

for example the ants can be dealt with just by killing the King/Queen and they have nukes and stuff to kill them them with.

Imagine if that immortal virus got loose, how in the world would you stop it? Or if Pup and Hellbell started sprouting up everywhere, people would be wishing for the days of the Chimera Ants threatening the world.

Man, I don't know. The chain of manipulation is pretty silly - Pain is the boss of Akatsuki! But he's being manipulated by Obito, who is being manipulated by Madara, who is being manipulated by Black Zetsu, who is being manipulated by Kaguya. The Ten Tails fits in here somehow.

Black Zetsu was not manipulated by Kagura. He revived her with his own decision.

He doesn't need to be an expert of the fire fist - He was already strong enough to be Dragon's right hand man and to win a battle royal of individuals with 200+ million bounties (pretty easily).

Keep in mind that Dragon is the most wanted person in the world, despite keeping a relatively low profile. He's probably at least as powerful as the most powerful Yonkou, including Whitebeard. Shouldn't be a surprise his right hand man can stomp everyone.
