Bleach would be one of the greatest of all time if the past several hundred chapters was a massive troll swerve
If that happens, Bleach would jump from a bland, unoriginal Shonen title, to a Dadaist masterpiece.
I know, instant redemption for me. It would be pure bullshit, but I'd love it so much.
AMEN my brother!
Gimme that UBER TROLL

Imagine the Toonami GAF reaction whenever the Blood War anime finally happens to such a twist.
I WOULD FLIP ALL MY SHIT.
I need this to happen.
Man my original wish was that once they defeated the quincies and everybody lives in harmony, suddenly Aizen shows up, just standing there, pulling out his Sword and says "Bankai"
This would be the last panel.
Get it, his bankai is to end the world/manga/story.

Lol at the Aizen theories.

I already have the latter half of the series and I rather like the covers so if I was going to get the initial volumes, I would probably want to get the single volumes. Cause you know, it'll kill me if they don't match on my shelf.
And I could place them next to my box set of the anime. All eight volumes of DVDs for the anime.

Ore no Kanojo ga Stalker na Ken
Just from that title, I could tell this was going to be interesting. This didn't help
Overall, it was sort of cute story about a girl who fantasizes about and stalks a guy who becomes her boyfriend who is misunderstood as a bad boy.

I see, I seem to recall a point somewhat recently where the rankings were apparently dropping a bit and it actually seemed to lead to the story getting picked up a bit after constant filler chapters.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I read it. I just don't find Bert to be a very engaging foe for whatever reason. I love the series, I just find a lot of the minor antagonists to be samey even when they have entirely different motivations. I can't really explain that. I'd really like to see Maruo at least take down on of the big three antagonists (Nabae, Takuma, Araya).

That was a confession!
Totally counts.
And surprise surprise, the smiling guy betrayed them. Who would've thought?
That's Gainax level trolling, goddamn.
I just haven't been posting much in general. Plus, these chapters haven't had much yet. Okada isn't terribly interesting, unfortunately.

We are waiting for it to get licensed brah.
Speaking of licensed manga, Seven Seas has licensed D-Frag. Source: Their Twitter.
They also got a few more Strike Witches manga, in fact I think they've licensed all the Strike Witches manga now.

Huh, interested in the D-Frag anime so I wouldn't mind reading it when it gets released here.

Asaemon's dad was a scumbag. Glad to see him get what was coming to him.
Little more info about Gintoki's past is revealed.
Nice to see the fake smiler lose his composure.
These last two titles Hijikata disappeared at the End of the Mayonnaise Lane and Okita also disappeared, at the End of the Total Sadist Lane are pretty funny considering both of them haven't shown up.

Kawaisa Amatte Nanika ga Hyakubai 2+ extra
Shinobu the younger flower shop owner to save the day and get him out of this nasty affair witht he married man (even pouring water on bosses head). Doing all of that made it a blast and extremely memorable. Hope the other stories in this follow that same thing.

Along with "Aunt Tits Further Analysis," this is a wonderful line.
Depends on where are you from, you could wait a lifetime.

FYI, don't go posting game impressions in this thread Grimace. This isn't the place for it.
Sabotage Mask Vol 14
That's right, I'm picking this back up! I started the TV drama arc from the beginning again to give myself a little refresher on current events and now I've just overtaken my previous stopping point. In what should come as a surprise to nobody, Glass Mask is still great.

What about the occasional western comic impression? Same medium, different country of origin.
I never said anything against that.

Its hard finding a panel safe enough of Suu to post.
Either she'll have the body of a loli or have big busted tits and will reveal her chest, ass, and everything else the raincoat can barely cover.
15 - Meisetsu Kougyou Koukou Rugby Bu 14 (end)
Because it's been so long between chapter releases, I ended up re-reading the whole series before reading this chapter. As a whole, I love the series- it has a very nice juxtaposition of soft, shounen-ai style art with a very violent and fast-paced game, and it works really well. The story has a nice progression to it as well- the mangaka probably knew this wasn't going to be a long series, and structured it in a way that would tell a complete story, having the team play 3 games of rugby.
...except the 3rd game never happens. Instead, this final chapter is a very cheesy and forced way to wrap up the story, and it kinda soured me on the whole experience. It's completely unrealistic, and throws away all of the build-up from the previous 5 chapters. In all honesty, I kinda wish I never read this last chapter.
Series is still worth reading, but you might as well skip the finale.

Anyone read Nanatsu no Taizai? I started it last week and just caught up and I love it, it's got that perfect mix of shonen tone and medieval setting that I enjoy.
Anyone know of any other good shonen series like this? Not specifically medieval setting, but something along the same lines in terms of pacing and over all tone? I'm always looking to find another series to read,

That's sad. Its always a tragedy when a unique manga dies early. I can only invest so much life force kn Soul Catcher(s) that I cannot divert it elsewhere. 15 could've had a life in Jump SQ to replace one of tje six exorcism mangas in there. What is up with that fetish?
Im tring to learn Japanese to support the mangaka. Tennis was my first obsession.

Seraph of the End Chp 6
JUMP SQ folks always have good colouring going on for their series, seems that at least their three exorcists series I read (BLue Exorcist, this, and the just started Sousei no Onmyouji).
Although the content followed an establish path for action series, the classroom scene when Guren applied the pressured stood out as most memorable as the way it was drawn and how people were falling out left and right was intense. Shiho giving in a bit to it even.
At the end was most surprised that Yoichi fell to the dark side, with Mika already having experienced a bad fate...I would be a bit sad here if Yoichi died and had to be killed. He was a good normal guy for the two other key characters.
