Tokyo Ghoul: re 31

Kaneki is like Mike Tyson. I sure hope those ears are tasty.

Not a fan of the lightning fast way to conclude the arc. ~13 chapters with little payoff and concluded in 8 pages because lul reinforcements came. Hirako vs Uta got no meaningful resolution, the author skipped the reveal Saiko's Kagune, most of Hinami fight and did a super quick resolution to Haise &Takizawa. The latter shrugged off similar blows a few minutes earlier which makes that conclusion not very earned. In general, the story didn't progress very much outside of Hinami's capture and Haise'&Kaneki compromise. All this makes the ending feel rushed and anticlimactic.

Though as much as I disliked both the incessant „people die but they're not killed” and the proliferation of half-ghouls at the end of part 1 . I managed to warm up to both. Takizawa got what he deserved for being the biggest waste of space inpart 1 and Amon has a set of interesting dynamics with a bunch of other characters and is pretty much the only „good” person with the knowledge of CCG's wrongdoings.

Dunno were things are going to go from here. Tsukiyama arc and then Toka busting her father and Hinami out of Cochlea perhaps ? Or maybe reformed Urie will go with the rst of the crew to :re and sniff her and Yomo out lol. One thing is certain, Arima/Haise/Akira/Hinami interactions will be fun for sure.

Akagi ch244-245

Washizu is pretty honorable considering the circumstances, and I'm impressed by how loyal his underlings are.

Still, with all that setup no way he doesn't survive.

Boku dake ga Inai Machi

Aaannnd there it is. :x

Should check 'n see if the raw scans have gone beyond the point where
he wakes up
. Still hoping he's able to jump back to that point again; going alone was a massive screw-up.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
That moment when you realize Hishoko stayed up all night reading porny shoujo.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Basically Erina is about 1 step ahead of Soma in the "noticing the opposite sex" game.

I'm gonna lose it when Soma has a similar situation and asks another student about what it means to love and they give him a copy of a Seo manga.

Hina is a brat but I love her for it. Her interactions with Nitta is just as hilarious as Hitomi's chapters.

It's not that I dislike Hina, quite in the contrary, I like her a lot, but the rest of the cast entertains me as much as her and having the manga focus on them adds a lot of variety to the manga.
Hitomi in particular tends to have excellent chapters.

I wonder if it would be too on the nose if Soma reads a harem manga and draws parallels between all the girls in his harem.

Does he really have that many? Meat seems to be the only one that cares about winning the Somabowl, has Megumi ever shown anything like that?

And Erina is Erina so lol

Meat and Slowkoro, basically, but also Erina in reality. And Slowkoro is way too chickenshit to make a move. Not that it would matter because Soma is oblivious and needs to read some manga to figure out that girls exist.

Soma and Erina are so oblivious they're going to be married with kids and Erina will still be plotting how to get Soma fired from his job at Totsuki because of his B-grade commoner food while Soma will be confused as to why Erina is living in his house but vaguely pleased she's there to try his dishes.

Naruto

Guess Naruto forgot he can give people 9 tails power to protect them so that they don't have to stand right by him.

Guess Naruto forgot he can make shadow clones to do ... w/e the fuck he needs them to do. Guess he prefers to stand in the same place like he's just daring them to attack him.

Wonder if Sas is regretting passing on that replacement arm yet ...

And Sakura sneak-power-punched the guy right onto death's door step but she is now being punked into doing medical shit for him because of a group of kids?

Ok.

Yeah whole chapter was an ass pull on EPIC levels. Sasuke needs to get his arm replaced ASAP. All of this is his fault in the first place for fighting Naruto to the end anyway.

Ajin 80

Sato
(Samuel T. Owen)
basically loves killing people and that is the reason he's doing all this. Tanaka knows about Nagai's plan as Tosaki's team moves to the final phase of their plan. I refuse to believe Tanaka is killing all of these people and maybe leaving them alive somehow. How in the shit is Tosaki flying to America freely and not getting killed or trailed back to their hideout?

Everything is setting up for a nice endgame where the dude within the illuminati faction betrays everyone, launches a nuke at the decisive battle, and tries to assassinate Tosaki anyway.

Why are we getting an Ajin movie when this series could easily be the most epic anime in years?
