I thought that was Panda's thing to ask that to newcomers though.

Except me cause I flew under the radar when I started posting.

Yeah it's panda's schtick. It's been a while since he did that though.

I dodged the question by throwing it back at him. I'm still waiting for his answer.

So today I meet with rrvv at Odaiba.

We started by checking the Gundam real size statue:



I can't mention how impressive the statue is, I went back there at different points of the day and took a boatload of pictures, I posted some of those pictures on facebook if anyone cares to check)

After which we went to check out on Fuji TV building, they had a Assassin Classroom theme going on.



We followed up by eating at Baratie!



Ordered the cheapest thing there, which was decent, kind of wish I had went for something more expensive and One Piece themed, maybe next time.

The mood was great though, One Piece OST on the background, Sanji talking all the time, TV showing One Piece stuff.

And right after we order Chef Zeff shows up!



Poor real life Merry suffered the same fate as fictional Merry.

Me and rrvv parted ways shortly after, unfortunately we didn't take any pictures together, but it was definitively a very fun experience (added bonus thatI actually got pictures of myself thanks to him!).

Sounds like y'all had fun! That Gundam is really big. Imagine if it moved. Did they serve Devil Fruits at the Baratie?

Asagao to Kase-san 10

This was particularly cuter than usual is possible.
Bad move by Yamada, even if I can understand her, but she made up and it was all solved with a cute hug.

He's too busy to notice newcomers now a days.

Whatever it is I bet it has Dating a Team Magma Grunt in it.

It's really impressive to stand by it, you don't quite get how big it is until you stop to think that the feet is as tall as you. And it was ridiculously detailed as well.

I seriously could had spent a few hours just looking at it.

I eagerly wait the day we get one of those moving, it's really just a matter of time.
Maybe it's time to go watch Gundam.

Hm, to be honest I didn't really look at the list long, but I don't think they did. All the more excuses to go back and check it out, though I'll probably only going to do that a few months down the road.

The monitor did show an ad of Zoro vs Kuma hamburger with the food shaped like Kuma paw. I should had asked for that.

It's taller than my house lol

I wonder how much it'd cost to buy one of these models.

It was a big menu? I wonder if they went for the obvious Onigiri onigiris.

So much misfortune!

That entrance by Waltraute-sama.

Time to see if Touma can punch his way through any problem! Especially when all your enemies aren't lolis now!
 
Tokyo Ghoul:Re 21 Spoilers!

I'll never see Pineapples the same ever again.



5UHiK9L.jpg

Plucking pineapples have never been so easy.

Like hot damn
, Seidou just ripped out a Associate Special Class head without him reacting. This is some dark humor. To see that a once gullible friendly investigator go from this is pretty brutal.

Man Roma
is a fuckin monster, she shredded one of the investigator while drinking his blood. Also Uta is chill as fuck, he got stabbed by knives and a long spear and is still calm. I can't wait for the Uta vs. Hirako match.

Poor Naki
first he lost his big bro and now he lost his other brothers. It's true that Ishida really foreshadowed him being alone. Anyways a Akira vs. Hinami is gonna happen, yes.
 
Ane Kurabe 05

So this ended.

Of course, no one picked anyone so we just had a series where the harem all wanted the boring lead and none of the other girls cared that the other girls wanted him too. I guess that's different?

I wish they would make this into a live action like they did Why Cant Seiya Todoin Get a Girlfriend, it would be just as good.

Kazuki and Go please.

Zetsurin! ch6

Dat holy water.

Seems like it's at least somewhat popular, considering it got illustrations from Hiroyuki and Wakabayashi Toshiya.
 
They kinda look like Psycho Pass rejects

Wut? They look nothing like Psycho Pass rejects. I mean most of psycho pass character designs look white as fuck. They really need a tan and get some vitamin D from the sun. Plus some characters seem to have the sameface issue.

Crap I forgot about Punpun had it in my backlog. I'll continue reading it once I get a bit farther in reading Yotsuba&!.
 
Punpun


Oh right I finished that.

It's just that near the end I had no idea what was going on and what was the truth and just had to sit down and think for a while.

I enjoyed the childhood chapters more than the later chapters anyway, man Aiko arc shook me up.

Quite the surreal work. Been recommending it to people who want something different. My reaction may be a bit more muted than others but I still enjoyed reading it a lot.

That's what they immediately reminded me of though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well it doesn't seem like Soma's in danger of failing out, given that Shinomiya's being all nice to him.
 
Pokemon Adventures Black & White Vol.06

As the gym leaders get trounced, Black goes to train and White shows off what she has learned on the Battle Subway.

I'm liking White's development, going from someone who had no interest in battle to someone who does now, it's nice to see. Seeing Ingo and Emmet was pretty fun too, they are such goofballs.

Lttp: Inu Yashiki

just found it and read up to the current chapter in a breeze
the Gantz references made me chuckle, overall I'm really liking it, expecially the fact that the main character is as far as the usual stereotipes as possible
 

BakedYams

Slayer of Combofiends

Me too! ;_; Even though I would crusade back in my old days preaching about Onani Master Kurosawa.

Ah, that and The Flower of Evil are works of art that cannot be explained with mere words.

No, you're gonna need Yotsuba&! after you're done reading it Aqua, believe me. Zweizer just wants you to not have an escape if you think like that.
 
iShoujo 09

Jumping out of windows to escape her. That poor kid. Nice ending to this arc though.

iShoujo 10

Mascots get all the attention.

Sure. I'd say go resume reading it after you've finished catching up with Yotsuba&!~

Don't forget to read the interview. It offers a good deal of information and clarification concerning the events in the manga.

Jeez. Don't ruin my fun~

I've been reading a lot of webtoons lately. One of them is "The Stories of Those Around Me" and I really like the art. Its basically just colorful doodles but they're really cute and charming. Its also a nice slice of life / romance series about 3 girls.

1M9zLkN.png


The same author has another series called "Salty Studio", which is about a dude who quits his job to become an artist and enlists the help of an old high school friend to teach him how to draw. The art is a lot better on this one. It has a very vibrant storybook feel and is just really pleasant to look at. Even though the story really strays from the main plot, the side characters have gotten some pretty good development so far. Its also funny.
