I already said that I didn't liked the second part of Koe no Katachi as much as the first part, it didn't feel natural but instead it went with the melodrama route, and now add the weak ending and meh, now I'm not hyped about the anime.

If Mine does not survive the next chapter or any of the chapter afterwards in Akame Ga Kill, I will be seriously pissed.
I have a feeling that she will be killed and Takumi will get her Pumpkin as an upgrade in some capacity or some such, I don't know, is it possible according to the lore for such thing to happen?
I am seriously kind of worried for Mine, hahaha. Her daring rescue attempt is really cool/touching in my book, I am weak against that kind of stuff.

Then are you forgetting time traveling loli? The series has 5 main characrers at this point. MC, no gender best friend who can choose its gender at some point to officially join the harem, older girl who gets nude every battle, time travel loli, and robot guy. Probably ghost boy santa will join at the end of this arc.

Hina face look different, it's kinda creepy.
No you don't.
Anyways, hope some raws for that dumb new Eva manga show up
and last NGE volume out in Japan tomorrow, hope we see some extra chapter leaks. I should probably stack 4chan.

Law vs Doflamingo is a pretty good fight. Too bad most of the chapter was wasted checking what was happening with everyone.

I'll forgive you
Anyways about Kaneki's power it wasn't a jump because he had all the potential from the very beginning. He was given Rize's organs who in fact was a powerful ghoul. Her Rinkaku kagune is really strong and lethal. Though the reason why it may seem as if Kaneki was weak in the beginning was because at that time he didn't want to let go of his humanity. He didn't provide his body with enough nutrients (human meat) and kept on eating those coffee snacks which is why his body wasn't as strong. Though during the torture his mentality had changed, he accepted his Ghoul side even if it meant losing some of his humanity. When Kaneki took a bite off of Yamori he gained a boost in RC levels and it's been told that if a Ghoul eat's other ghouls they get stronger. So what I'm saying is that with his new mentality, Rize's Kagune, his training, and abnormal regeneration which was told through Yamori, his strength wasn't a asspull. Ending with Kaneki destroying Yamori.
Nah, I get that Kaneki not accepting his nature made him weaker. What surprised me was that Rize's abilities were that powerful, even if that bit of cannibalism increased his power. Considering how much hype Yamori had, him getting stomped like that was rather surprising.
I'd rather have a Yandere Kanojo, but I agree otherwise.
Raw version.

Well, 社長 = Club President.
Nah, that means "CEO", pretty much. Nothing to do with school activities.
You're probably thinking of "部長".

I did not see that twist coming. Aaron is a fucking badass, and Alex is so goddamn moe when he try to write using his hook hand.
The little match girl
I really like the artist art. He did Black rock shooter manga. The story is horror twisted version of the match girl story. Moral of the story, be careful what you wish for.
Fujicue
Looks okay. I don't see anything special yet. A young man enter highschool for musician in an attempt to join his favorite band. Problem is, he suck at playing guitar. Thankfuly he paired up with a girl who's great with piano, but have stage fright problem.

I basically googled to see the difference in both chinese and JPN usage context.
You're right, they are different. I'm too used to 社長 as club president in chinese translations.

Back to the present, ending in sight, mixed with a brief recap of everything going on, as expected. Also cool that the biggest revelation of the flashback was put into play almost immediately

Just started a new job, and with the added commute, I've barely had time to do anything. lately.
Probably going to read Hero Academia this weekend, and slog through some more One Piece over Thanksgiving break though

I'm still playing Samurai Warriors 4, Fantasy Life and Miku now demands my attention.
Not to mention ORAS comes out in like three days.
One Piece:
So the flashback is over? There's still some unresolved plotholes regarding Law's past with Doflamingo. The biggest one being that the flashback makes it clear that his first time meeting Vergo was on the winter island with Cora, but Doflamingo stated during Punk Hazard that Law pissed off Vergo before in the past and got his ass stomped. From the way the flashback ended, it seems like Law parted with Doflamingo and the family after Cora's death, so how did he get beaten down by Vergo then?
Outside of that, it was an ok chapter kind of wasted by showing us everyone, whose status hasn't really changed at all. It was pretty neat to see Doffy and Law use Armament haki for the first time. Also, it looks like Oda is going to screw us out of having Robin have a fight once again. I'm not even surprised at this point, I think the next time she'll get a proper fight will be in 20 years when we finally get to the Raftel arc, against a member of Blackbeard's crew, and that's if we're extremely lucky.

Wish the webtoon app added more series, after SHADOW ended I know only have 10th dimension boys, gamer, soul cartel and flow, which leaves lots of days empty for sizable content.
The new winter one added today was an interesting chp 0 but I dont think its for me even though the art is interesting style.

Nil. I am guessing Luffy is going to run train on the mucus guy and then come in to finish Doflamingo after all he did vow to kick his ass and Luffy tends to get his way in the long run.
Anywho,
One Piece
A tiny bit of progress since the flashback happened at least but I really want to see some focus on the fights in the immediate chapters. Look forward to the Pica, Diamante and Doflamingo fights. I really wish Franky's fight would just end already. I was kind of hoping he would fight a 'stronger' opponent. Go Bartolmeo!

All your new series (and Bleach) are dying.
Yeah that's what I'm expecting. Law beating Doflamingo solo would take some insane asspull.
I'm still wondering why people are voting for Kochikame.

Look at World Trigger nearly in the top 5, soon!
I think Kochikame is unranked. It's been running since 1976, it's essentially immune to the ratings system.
No surprise the new series are dying, they all looked like crap.
I know it's immune to the ratings system, but what dakku posted are the rankings, and if Kochikame is there it means it gathered votes.

Bleach nonsensical

Actually it's the Table of Contents.
The issues are sorted by the ranking system.
New series (less than 8 chapters) and Kochikame are just randomly placed in the magazine.

I imagine that Kochikame and Isobe are both just randomly placed in each issue. Along with the cover and color pages too.
Cause if Bleach is even less popular than those two...

Okay, here's the thing. I don't know if its a cultural thing, but I've noticed most series that aren't explicitly about pairing characters seem to have a penchant for only vaguely alluding to what is actually happening in the end. I don't know if its just us western readers that actually expect to see the kiss or the babies or whatever since it was pretty clearly implied. The overall effect is that it seems obnoxiously incomplete.
Also, Ueno wasn't lesbian with Sahara, you guys are dumb and can't read. She was trying to make Ishida jealous.

Oh I see. That makes sense, at least more than a bunch of people consistently and futively voting for Kochikame.
Bleach having low ratings isn't that surprising, considering its sales decline.

Even if Ishida and Nishimaya kissed or had babies or whatever (I think there's supposed to be a subtle thing about them holding hands when that's how they communicate) it still isn't satisfying because of the way everything was resolved, especially in regards to the side characters. Alone, it's a fine ending, but when looking at all the other problems that plagued the second half it's pretty bad.
Maybe Kubo should introduce some more characters. That'll surely help.
