That confession makes him seem suicidal, which I doubt was the intention. Yukino is pretty though.

What ever happened to that "more mature" pokemon manga? I think it was announced in like 2011 or 2012 but I dont recall a release? Was it canned or something? I was looking forward to it

I want to read it, but I really don't want to start it, knowing it's being serialized. ¬¬
How is it? I mean, is it episodic, or is there a good main plot?

There's always Pokemon Adventures and it's great.
But I think you are talking about Pokemon ReBURST which had less than stellar reviews.

It has a good main plot and its ending soon as far as I know.

If only it had been finished...instead of skipping to the last three chapters. reburst was fun.
I think this is redundant too.

Assassination Classroom v1
Bought it today and read it upon arrival. Great take on the manga, I love the extras like the character profiles and random drawings too. Will definitely be collecting every volume, kind of love this manga series now, and I forgot how great the first chapters started. Terasaka and Karma kun in only the 2nd or so chapter, and then Karma kun being all heroic at times but punished. What a terrible school.
Part of me thought they would change korosensei name but they kept it, didnt ever know it was a pun, unless I skipped over that a long time ago.

The Black Knight Story by Kobayashi Motofumi
World War 2, a fascinating period of history, and I dare say not really mankind's proudest moment. This work tells the tale of a company of German soldiers (specifically, the ones manning tanks) at the Eastern Front during the Soviet counter-offensive campaign, and depicts the war with a mix of glorification and grim realism. The author put a lot of effort in historical and technical details, although the company itself seems to be fictitious.
Overall, it's a decently gripping story about a defeated army' struggles during these forlorn times, but I must admit the demonization of the Russians, in particular for that "alternate history" bit in the last chapter, felt rather unnecessary, though it's somewhat understandable when one consider that this had been published while the Cold War was still in effect.

I'm sure this Calvary game won't be extremely lewd.
How many more times can the VP coming back be teased before it actually happens?

Assassination Classroom vol 1
First thing first- the presence of gendered pronouns kills the "Nagisa is a girl" thing like 5 pages into the first chapter
I went back and looked at some of the original releases to compare how the translations happened. There are some tiny changes that don't really amount to anything ("He built Osaka Castle and prepared a tea ceremony" changes to "He built a sand castle and is drinking Green Tea"), some that are a bit head scratching (Kuro Sensei weakness 3: He's Petty changed to "Sore Loser", which doesn't make as much sense in the context), and basically anything that required a translator's note in the original was changed or presented without comment.
For the most part, it's basically the same as the original, and i'm happy the translators didn't go crazy adding jokes (The only new joke I noticed was a Dragon Quest Metal Slime joke in ch7 when Kuro Sensei is in his ooze form). They also did a great job preserving the cover of the original release- I can't wait to get the future volumes on my shelf next to this

Hey guys, what's your top favorite Manga covers that you really adore?

Ao no Exorcist 60-63
You know, I appreciate the character development in this... but I'm not really a fan of the cast as much as I think I should be? I'm not sure why. Maybe it's because it's updated monthly, but for whatever reason, I don't really care about them that much.
The action sequences are not really good either. I can barely follow them.
yeah this things popularity fell harder than anything else after the anime
monthly really hurt it. I also lost interest. Thought the anime was great

What did the anime cover? Did it do the arc where everyone finds out Rin's the son of Satan? That one was my favorite, it really fleshed out the side characters.
I feel like the manga being somewhat aimless at times also hurts it. That's pretty excusable in weekly series, because it needs some room to wiggle around if it's supposed to come up with so much material consistently, but in a monthly series, you really need strong progression of the narrative so that people don't forget why things are important. At least that's what I think anyway.

The anime had an original ending and I believe that they diverge right at the part where everyone finds out about Rin including changing their reactions. I think that's what I remember reading when the anime was airing.
Not that it matters, the movie blows the anime out of the water and is something everyone should watch.

Rin is the main character, glasses dude's brother.
Damn, that sucks. It was refreshing to see everyone hate him, but eventually getting over that. Is the movie original too, or is it a faithful adaption of sorts?

I think everyone hates him still but it was done differently, maybe. Not having read the manga and watching the anime years ago hazes my memory.
The movie is original but it is a really well done story. Probably my favorite anime movie of last year.
LOL. The editor of Kamisama no Iutoori Ni has been inserting little private messages at the end of the last couple of chapters in the magazine and it turned out to be an interesting read in the end
