Why does everything has to be so dramatic? Manga! Sometimes, i swear....

It makes perfect sense. How would fake Zangetsu teach him quincy arrows while quincy powers was not awakened? His hollow form is his true Zampakto.

Haha wow.
I seriously want to read that now.

I read Bokurano recently and didn't find it too bad, the premise was already giving away the fact that they would all die, Narutaru was way more deceptive at the beginning and way more brutal at the execution. That said I don't really remember that much about Narutaru anymore and that probably has its reasons.
I'm feeling compelled to reread it.

Considering how the series is going now, it'd b best for it to bow out gracefully.

I was able to read bokurano without much revulsion but what I've heard about narutaru really put me off.
Like, I don't recall any brutal rape in bokunaro.
Dr frost 38
Aw, that was pretty touching. I do wonder how accurate some of these psych evaluations are, but apparently dude uses psychologists as consultants.

Oh I certainly don't wish for a Naruto sequel but it would be hilarious as hell if it was anywhere similar to Narutaru.
Oh man, I don't remember anything like that happening in the anime. lol
Holy shit, someone started translating this.

Caught up. Would be interesting to finally see what caused the rift between baek and the woman. Seems like the manhwa is now being scanlated at a pretty decent clip, so that's pretty awesome.
Really liked what I read. Nothing feels really extravagant. Every case (except probably the idol one) are just regular people who suffers from various well known psychological problems, and I like how grounded the premise is. Dr Baek fits into the Dr house role of genius diagnostician who's pretty quirky, though for him it's more coldness than being a rude asshole. Like house he get frequent flashes of a mysterious past that helps create an interesting narrative backbone other than the case of the day format of the manhwa, as well as fleshing out the character instead of making him seem like some sort of psychology ubermensch.
Also his interactions with assistant yoon is too cute.
As far as manhwa goes I'd say this is definitely one to read.

There doesn't seem to be any bulletproof Yo-Yo's in sight just yet but starting off the series in an oppressive female youth detention facility run by a ruthless director makes it no less entertaining. That Bunkoban cover is godlike too.
Boku wa Mari no Naka 16
Yeah, nothing really happened in this chapter apart from Mari slipping up just a bit, I do wonder when her friends gonna confront her about all her fuckups.

The cover is definitely deceptive, but still, seems like an interesting premise.

Ano Ko no Ie 1
Huh, this started off pretty nice and and all but took an unexpectedly morbid turn towards the end. The art has this really soft feeling to it that it almost feels like you're wearing a nice big fluffy blanket while reading it which says a lot about this as it's currently freezing here. I wonder if it's gonna go in the direction that I think it is but I'm definitely gonna stick with this series regardless.

You know what'd be pretty badass?
If on Wednesday, Orochimaru makes a call back to Part 1.
"....remember when I placed my life in your hands, and you didn't want to save my sealed arms, eh Tsunade? Because I remember."

I am going to restart reading this shit after the flashback ends. Boring flashback i am skipping it.
Detective Conan the last 100 or so chapters
Is it me or has there been a lot more plot since the new characters were introduced? Well, it's been a while so I don't know for sure, but I'm not complaining! They're a great way to mix up the dynamics of the plot and I think they're all really interesting as well. I wonder if I should try and keep up with the series weekly now or let a few chapters build up again.
These chapters have had plenty of Ai which I've also enjoyed as well :3. All-in-all, I'm glad I revisited this series, since I'm finding all of the characters a lot more charming than I remember.

Kuroko no Basket 217
The pep talk with Aomine was fine.
But the game needs to end next chapter.

Ahiru no Sora vol 1-3
Damn, what a great manga this is.
I'm already hooked, easily the best basket-ball shonen since Slam Dunk. Kuroko's Basket wishes it was as good as this manga.
The main team is quite likable, Sora is a good MC despite being the usual "short kid who is really talented OMG!!".
The Hanazono brothers are also both great characters, Chiaki is without a doubt one of the best characters in the manga so far. It's pretty obvious that they'll be the main players of the team along with Sora but I don't mind since they're cool. I also dig the remaining three players. They aren't good players but they remind me of the Ha-Ha brothers from Eyeshield 21 so I can't help liking them.
There's a lot of humor, that's always nice to see. Even the author admits that he doesn't want the manga to be a really serious series.
The art is also quite good, the author knows how to draw epic scenes as well as more light-hearted and funny stuff.

BTW the reveal of the PS4 design music reminded me of Hollow Ichigo music.
That's great to hear. This is really high on my to-read list.
The group that was translating it is on hiatus for a while now and no one new has picked it up.
Fantasy World Jun volume 01
Holy shit this was absolutely incredible. It's about an aspiring mangaka and his wild imagination. It doesn't have much of a story or even text, it's mostly just brilliant imaginative artwork flowing together in an abstract dreamlike way.
And here is an amusing bit of relevant 60's mangaka drama that I stole from the comments of the translator's website.
Oh Tezuka.

Pool chapter!
Waratte! Sotomura-san 32
New character could be interesting if they actually showed more time her spending with the main character.

It's that Jiro Matsumoto? I find no information online about it.

Class structure getting you down? All you need is a dose of shonen willpower!
A naked obese man being bathed by naked concubines is not something you put on public television.

I know; I was just talking about the cover. It looks like they asked Jiro Matsumoto to draw it or something.

What the fuck ?
What the fuck ?
It's made by Noriyoshi Ohrai.
I think i found another one by the same artist
Thanks I Googled the name and I got some amazing 80s retro vibe art, looks like Noriyoshi Ohrai made the movie poster for the star wars movie in japan, it's manga covers and godzilla movie covers.
