Hunter X Hunter

This manga is so good. It's amazing that after those crazy chapters with Gon, the next we see of him is in a small blurry panel getting carried away by Killua. Not only that, but no one else is aware of what has happened with Gon and Pitou. Also consider that Pitou is most likely dead (like, for real this time) and chances are Meruem will be winning this contest on the grounds that Pitou barely exists.

I mean, last time we saw Pitou, there was no head.

Naruto

I don't get it, how is accepting he has a dark side going to help him filter out the 9 tails hatarade? The whole dark naruto thing feels redundant now that he's going to fight the demon fox anyway.
if he can accept that he's not all love and waffles, that would be the first step in seeing the 9tails as something other than an embodiment of pure evil.

the 8 tails seems fairly amiable to bee for a walking natural disaster, i would guess thats not because bee beat it to death and hates it.

Good stuff. Hakudou is sure sending out death-flags everywhere.

You think? Would suck if she did, I really like her character. I've actually been thinking that maybe Horse Guy and Samidare aren't going to survive 'till the end.

I really like her too, but her crush on Yuuhi looks to be heading towards a sad ending. I don't think she'll die to the 11th, but the 12th or the Animus? Likely. Although she might last till the end when she's trying to stop Sami.

I'm not sure about Samidare dying, although it'd be interesting, but yeah, I agree about the Horse guy. It sometimes seems like he craves a heroic death.

I think that he accepted it and let go of it . . . not by forcing it down but by understanding that it IS a part of him and that he IS what he is today in part because of it. The first step to changing your self is accepting/ realizing your flaws so that you can change them.

By Naruto fighting it he was pretty much doing what he was always doing, forcing it down and ignoring it. By accepting it he can let go of it.

Thats what I thought at least 0_o

Pretty much. Exactly like the guy who did the Persona Naruto photoshop. In the Persona 4 game, characters had to face their inner dark sides. By denying it, they only made them stronger. Only by accepting that they have a dark, negative side did they overcome it.
 
Naruto

I know fighting and accepting your dark side is nothing new but come on. This reeks of Persona.

Cool chapter though. Glad Bee and Naruto are now friends.

Bleach

And nothing happens once again. Condom Aizen is still dominating. Wonder how Matsumoto is going to affect the Ichigo/Gin fight.
 
One Piece

I thought this was a nice touch.

my thoughts exactly I mean now Pufu and Yupi are fucked :-/
Except Gon doing something about the king I can't see a way out now because they're clearly not driving their way out of the palace :lol

Naruto is boring and Bleach was pointless....
I prefer smirking aizen to condom aizen

If the King sees Komugi, that's pretty much their only ticket for getting out of this alive.

Regarding the new chapter, I was really weirded out when the King suddenly agreed to the challenge, but when he said he knew about a secret I was relieved.

It's the best case scenario for the good guys now, so something will probably go wrong on their end soon.

Last thing, Pufu suddenly came back to normal? What and why? Why is Yupi still small then? Does it limit his strength and will he regain it anytime soon?

One Piece

But I digress.

This is why Oda is in a whole other league.

Any artist with their lick at least remembers those kind of details. Then again, considering Oda's contemporaries in the genre he does... :lol

Kishimoto and Kubo have completely forgotten to draw/include characters at times. :lol

Yea for a while people were making pics of Kisame on a milk carton since he was nowhere in sight. :lol

His reappearance out of the sword should be interesting.

The way I see it, he has about a 6th of his strengh due to the giving the rest to heal the king (and that division was the ...thing that waited for Knuckle at the gate)
so he's severely weakened but since his division was shown as full body size there's nothing that strike me as odd (the little thing that was with the king is the core that he cannot shrink any smaller).
But in the same way that Pitou can't use any aura while using Dr Blyth, Pufu's Scales probably needs all his aura too (especially with his diminished state) which is why he recalled his Beelzebub's ability.
Yupi is still small because he gave all his body for the King to consume, inshort he's fuck'd forever for all we know
 
I'm really thinking Beelzebub is my favorite manga of all time. Even when nothings happening plot wise its still entertaining.

Furuichi is the truth.
 
So after a month-long wait, Nurarihyon no Mago 105 is out. Finally. Some Christian japanese devil guy.

And now, all I need to wait for is Negima.

It's just more pactio fever, but without the Chachamaru orgasm gag.

1) You're responding to my spoiler discussion with actual chapter details that weren't in the spoiler.

2) That dialogue was from when Sabo was explaining who he was in a casual conversation. That's a major difference from the end of the chapter when Sabo, Luffy, and Ace are being attacked and Sabo gets taken by the Nobels. It's like (for example) trying to argue Luffy forgetting who CP9 is before and after they kidnapped Robin.

1) The conversation was in the spoiler. Maybe it wasn't when you started the discussion, sorry about that.
2)At the end of the chapter when Sabo was taken, from Luffy's point of view: Was Sabo taken by his father + pirates or was Sabo taken by the Nobles. If it was the former(likely, since the word "nobles" wasn't mentioned when Sabo was captured), it is understandable that Luffy would have forgotten about the nobles.

If he decides to do something like that, he should tell his inkers too. :lol
The edge of the third cup looks like it's "fused" with the table (there are no closed lines around the edge, in the first panel).

I consider it to be one of his assistants' mistake, since I hope that he created/thought of Sabo before that chapter. Otherwise, Sabo would be a really rushed up character.
 
Would've been too obvious anyway. These are the fans who scrutinize the phases of the moon to determine a time frame for luffy's adventures.

"well I drew a full last time, let's go 3/4ths"

"4.13 days passed!! that's just, like, PI backwards. holy shit Oda"

Who says the Straw Hats are going to get back together?

Man I hope they do but I always wondered that. I mean, in the back of my mind I know they are going to get back together but I could almost see Oda finding some way to keep them apart just to prove Kuma right.

What would Kuma be right about? I totally forgot...
 
Deadly said:

Hmm...I think I may be wrong. The last scene in Shabondy Kuma says they would never see each other again but that's most likely between Kuma and Luffy. I could have sworn I remembered him saying that about the Strawhats but I guess I just remembered incorrectly. :lol

So now I don't know. I'll look back through that fight later tonight and see if I can find anything on it.

He was talking about how he and Luffy would never meet again, he became a robot and all that jazz.
Huh, you're right. 513 19, that's what he says.

Weird, because a couple weeks ago when I watched the anime, he definitely said that about the Strawhats, not between him and Luffy.

Anime gets things wrong all the time but still depending on subs you watch or the group some lines meaning change in the whole . This goes for both manga and anime , still sucks when that happens.
 
The Liar Game goodness keeps on coming.
Nao Kanzaki is always so naive and nice, that at times it angers me and at times it pumps me up.
I'm really curious about Harimoto's answer to Yokoya.
 
Liar Game
The chapter flood has been insane :lol I like how this has progressed -- if this went slower I don't think it would have been as good, but knowing I have a handful of chapters ahead of me, the slower chapters aren't half as bad. At this point it's obvious Nao's goodness will persevere and the old man's true weapon (devoted followers) will falter thanks to her. Maybe even what someone said earlier (with Akiyama stealing the chairs) will happen.

The World God Only Knows
Still good as usual. Liked how all the District Chiefs got together. This giant girl arc is running a little too long, but at least it's coming to a close.

Kimi no Iru Machi
Holy shit, just fucking give up on her and go home.
 
I bet Naruto initially loses control of the Fox again and Bee has to transform and step in to restrain it.
In fact maybe Naruto will inadvertently be responsible for knocking out Bee, leaving Kisame free to haul him away. Then Guy will likely show up. I just hope Zetsu is nowhere on the island this time.

Zetsu is everywhere at any point in time
