In hindsight, this makes a lot of sense. Kind of great to see Mari dismantle Kate so thoroughly.

Well, count me interested! I think this is the first time it's felt like Souma's been legitimately challenged by a situation, and as someone who's always felt like he's been a little too good at his job, I'm really happy with this development. It's nice to see Souma be the smaller fish in the bigger pond for once, and really like he's off-balance.

As a side note, best new character or what?

Rough start from him. But he's not succumbing to pressure.

Prison School 160

Boom exposed!

Nozoki Ana 1-117

Wow I can't believe I read all of that in a single day. One of the best I've read from this genre in quite a while.

I usually don't get it until 12 PM, so I'm always wondering how everyone's reading it so many hours earlier.

Oh well, I'm rediscovering manga and I though I had read on some website that WSJ was updated every Monday at dawn (in France). It's now 15:18 and I think the author was high.
No subscription for me for now, I want to see if I stick to manga before that.

Well, like I said, other seem to get it earlier, so maybe it's specific to me.
Though if you're in France, we're probably not even thinking of the same service.

Pokémon - Dating a Team Magma Grunt 8

That Gurren Lagann reference (probably inserted by the translator).

Did she really end in second? As if I can buy that.
 
Prison School 159-160

Oh my~

I wonder if Kate has a good enough ass for Mari~



It didn't hit me hard, it mostly hit me as "wait, it's ending?", it does help that the series felt semi-dead since going into monthly format.

Sad to see it gone as well though.


In another subject, here's a bag I got at AnimeJapan.



I actually had to queue for this one, but I felt the obligation to go get this particular bag.

Getting a Tokyo Ghoul bag and not a Free! or Haikyuu!! one, iCant.

Ffs Turok you don't need to give out all those hints. keep it to yourself.

Christ, you've been subtly spoiling the chapters for weeks now.
Wtf? I only STARTED to be subtle yesterday.
Where have I been hinting before yesterday?

If you're talking about the ones where I properly used spoiler tags, why the hell did u click them spoilers? Otherwise, you have me at a loss. What are you talking about?

Hmm, I'm speaking about the digital WSJ update on ios. Not available in France but I have a US itune account.

On another topic, nobody answered me about what Stinky said :
Any anime fan knows a Gakuto.
I have no clue about what that mean ( 'T_T)

I didn't click the spoiler tags, but you've been talking about it non-stop, hinting on stuff that's 4, 5 chapters in advance consistently. You don't really need to click on the spoiler tags to pick up what you were talking about.

I look at the raws too, and some of the translations, but I'm not disclosing so much to not spoil the fun of those who doesn't.

Quote me these post you speak of. I do not recall doing this before yesterday.
Spoiler tagged posts do not count. They are tagged for this very reason. Especially since a lot of the spoiler tags i use, i flat out talk my reaction to said chapter, forget being subtle.

I call bs until stand corrected.
 
Boku no Hero Academy 35

I actually feel like she's going to win. I mean, Deku had a whole book dedicated to different strategies she could use to win, and all she needs is one touch to defeat him. I'm sure she's aware of that. Of course, all he needs is one touch to blow her away as well.

And on top of that, there was a clause that was pretty prominent early on saying that if you are too agressive or overly dominant and try to harm your opponent mortally, you would be DQ'ed. I have a feeling that was foreshadowing this match.

I got all the bags I could find (they're also double sided), if I didn't get those it's cause I didn't see them. Don't think there was any "Free!" bag, maybe Haikyuu had one thought. I did get one bag with some basketball anime in one of the sides, Kurokos I think.

Admittedly, Tokyo Ghouls was the one I actively searched for.

This panel has a whole different meaning now.

I'm not about to waste my time.

All I ask is lay off talking so much about future chapters. You're giving so much away.

Up to you if you want to call bs.

So...

Reading fodder, not particularly impressed nor disappointed -

Zetman 5-6
Nice but, please, stahp it with the whole 'noble savage' concept, it's fucking ridiculous.

Assassination Classroom 3
Not the best, a 'same as usual' vibe. Still funny.

My Hero Academia 4
Starting to warm up to it.

World Trigger 2
Still nice but not enough to catch me.

Seraph of the End 2
Had a better time with it than with the first one, but that's because I didn't care for the underground vampire stuff.


The real good stuff -

Prison School 3
Still funny and nice to look at.

One-Punch Man 4-7
Same as above, a wonderful surprise for me.


BFF stuff -

Tokyo Ghoul 11-13
It's soooo good. Maybe a little predictable with the mother thing, but damn, when you plan to read one episode and you can't stop, that's a sign.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
While waiting for the new International Jump...
Did anyone notice they changed the One Piece cover a couple weeks ago?

In Japan, Luffy is falling from Tokyo Tower
But here, he's falling from the Golden Gate Bridge

... What the hell Viz? Quit treating your audience like idiots.

Luffy cant be falling from different monuments from around the world?

Kind of a silly criticism for a worldwide icon :(

For the Japanese version, look up One Piece 779. I'd link it but the pictures are from forbidden sites, and Akito hasn't updated the gallery.

Here's the American one, I apologize for the borders, I used MS Paint.

They mentioned on their podcast that they wanted to put on something different I think. I thought it was flimsy reason to change it, but it is not like it mattered.

Finally got this picture today.

Here's me
badly
posing as Kiyoshi


Wish I had took a few more tries at the pose, but it was odd enough to ask my coworker to take a picture and then pose without warning.


And here's the banner by itself (NSFW)

I was hoping for different artwork by Oda, but it's just a different background inserted behind Luffy, that makes the switch even more disappointment.

That's what I was thinking while being there!

Next time I'll need to get something Prison School related to wear.

Well there's Comiket next weekend which is pretty short notice, so maybe the time after that.

Though I could try to find a place to print a shirt if there's any good source image for "I <3 WT".

I only know a few, if you're referring to slice of life romance drama. Good Ending, Domestic na Kanojo, Nozomi to Kimio (from the same author, just read it the day after lol), Natsu no Zenjitsu, Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai, Fuuka among others I can remember. Not all have adult scenes though :p Maybe you have read all of them.

I am calling bs as you spout nonsense.
If you're gonna claim such, be prepared to back it up. Waste of time? A pitiful excuse, more like there is no evidence since I never committed such. Perhaps you mistook me for someone else? I speak of future chaps in spoiler tags only, with exception to yesterday and that one time where i just say omg repeatedly. Omg is extremely vague. You could draw infinite conclusions from omg.

I will continue to discuss latest chaps in spoiler tags. I force no one to click them nor do I ask anyone to do so. I have no reason to listen to your request. Especially since its half baked with little ground.

... I gotta stop refreshing my browser...

Get a school uniform and a wig made of real hair!

Ooh, Comiket in March? Do people sell doujinshis during these spinoff conventions?
