An awesome wraparound cover for the new TWGOK artbook, which comes with the volume 17-18 double pack: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ILtNr.png[/IMG Here's a slightly higher resolution version with slightly worse image quality, if anyone wants it instead: http://i.imgur.com/h9BOx.jpg

Bleach

I missed out a 100 chapters or so. How strong is Urahara anyway? Has he actually fought someone full strength?

[Kusagari]

It looks like a piece of steak to me.

Yeah, in higher quality it definitely looks like a steak.

...which is just bizarre.

[mysticwhip]

naruto
meh, dan's spirit jutsu is lol bullshit kishi made up this chapter, i don't care about tsunade, tired of madara, sasuke to save the day.

only good thing was some nice background art on a page or two

Broken tier like Kenpachi and he only swoops in for bits.

[Dedication Through Light]

Bleach


One thing I can always count on Kubo is, well he makes Ichigo have some pretty awesome angles and panels. Kirge was feeling so pressured by him and even frightened, when was the last time someone felt that way at Ichigo. I loved it, and then the panel of just one of Ichigo's eyes. Sternritter in Soul Society are gonna get so destroyed, I cant wait to see their faces when they learn they cant seal his bankai. Show it to them Ichigo!

Bleach Kirge was feeling so pressured by him and even frightened, when was the last time someone felt that way at Ichigo.

Oh DTL, [has happened every strawberry battle] you so crazy.

[Tess3ract]

So what's going on in naruto? Is Madara turning on edo tensei just for himself or everyone again?

[remz]

I guess Fullbring might have something to do with it, or that he's not full Shinigami.

it having something to do with Fullbring would be a nice, sensible way to explain it. Having a call back to the "that's not bankai" thing or the part shinigami thing would be pretty dumb... IDK. Bleach and Naruto are both pretty much losing me at the moment.

So what's going on in naruto? Is Madara turning on edo tensei just for himself or everyone again?

99% sure it's just for himself. why would he care about the others? Also him bringing everyone back would make the whole beating kabuto thing a waste of time and like 1000 chapters... uurk

[survivor]

Minamoto-kun Monogatari 1-39 :/ ... it's like I'm reading a bleach paced doujin. I guess i should blame the short chapter length for that.

No, you are reading a classic Japanese tale of love, betrayal, and psychology.

Some of the new volume covers in the OP need to be updated:

Did you crop these images from Amazon or did you get them from a source where they are already like this?

TWGOK is tough, I don't think I can fit both covers, I will just stick with one of them.

[PK Gaming]

Naruto

Naruto was complete shit today as per usual, but I didn't really need to tell you that did I? Boring stuff overall, and Dan/Tsunade's bit annoyed me, however there was a single moment that wasn't as bad. It looks like the Kages are in this for the long haul, though knowing kishi none of them will die and they'll actually beat Madara.

Bleach

I won't lie, I actually liked this chapter. I think there's a constant mathematical chance that I will enjoy a Bleach chapter (1/7 perhaps?) and this was it. Soul society being thrown into a panic wasn't anything special, but Ichigo actually FIGHTING AND WINNING with Bankai was a first. For the first time since his fight Byakuya, his speed in Bankai has been noted as being "too strong." If Ichigo can actually speed blitz his opponents now, then his Bankai actually has a function now instead of being a useless power up. I just hope kubo doesn't bring back that retarded mask (though I do miss Hollow Ichigo). Seeing that smug quincy captain sweat was a threat.

[scy]

Yup, Wednesday.

[Defuser]

Magico is cancelled? Fuuuuuuckk!!! First ST&RS, now this.

[BatDan]

One Piece

So is it Wergo or Welgo? I've heard it's pronounced with a V since it's meant to be German...
Wergo sounds more likely as it sounds like ""Virgo".

Either way, I'm curious if he's the real big bad of this arc. The steak-face says otherwise...

As for Kinemon, he's awesome. I can see Zoro making great use of his ability to cut god damn explosions.

[Glass Rebel]

Virgo makes sense, I mean Oda copied Mashima with the dragon already, might as well get some Zodiac in there.

And Kinemon is a fire-based dragon slayer if I ever saw one.

[Angry Grimace]

Naruto

I have no idea what Dan did, nor that he had ghostkiller powers. I had kind of assumed Tsunade would get killed at some point, but probably not now.

Bleach

Spoiler: nothing happens.

This is the same panel he always draws.

Bleach I missed out a 100 chapters or so. How strong is Urahara anyway? Has he actually fought someone full strength?

Very strong. Not really, he's fought seriously but never completely gone all-out.

[Erigu]

Naruto Never thought Madara would stay in the world without using the sharigan. Thats such bullshit there.

He's so powerful he might just get a named good guy killed before the ultimate-war-to-end-all-wars is over. Impressive.
The stakes have never been zzzzz

[Freshmaker]

Bleach Spoiler: nothing happens. This is the same panel he always draws.

Elfshoes Nazi died and no more HM. That's something.

[Mr. Fix]

One Piece
Virgo with the meat-face swag. Another awesome chapter. Of course, Zoro's gotta give the nod to Kinemon. Truly an unpredictable arc.

Naruto
Already expected Madara to live through it. Also, thing's seem like a mess with Kishi trying to squeeze in some Dan-Tsunade time last minute.

Bleach
Banter wasn't funny, and it dragged for too long- nothing unexpected. Urahara just went and showed that Ichigo's time at HM was zzzzzz.

[scy]

This is the same panel he always draws.

Not enough white space.

MMY is awesome. It's like a more battle version of Spice and Wolf. It requires thought and for you to pay attention. You better know the value of potatoes. And the art at times is stupendous. It's like my favorite running manga.

I'm OK with this.

I'm sorry gunbo, I gave you the benefit of the doubt with UDDUP but I just can't overlook all that smut stuff. Survivor already used up all the credibility smutGAF can claim for itself.

[gunbo13]

The comp ace version is not in that exact style but still very strong.

I know its hard to take in that smutGAF also reads more fine quality works then you are accustomed to, but it is an indisputable fact.

[Infinite Justice]

Bleach

Urahara was like "play time is over LOL which have bigger fish to fry"

Would be interesting if Kubo gave a good reason why Ichigo's bankai is immune but we'll see.


Naruto

Crap.

Dan/Tsunade was kinda ok and i guess Madara basically outed the issue Kabuto kept hinting on?

Now the scene is ripe with The Sauce appearing to save them all or some horseshit.


One Piece

And it was someone completely new, damn you Oda lol

Interesting to see more of this wego/law dynamic and it looks like they knew each other for a long time, maybe when they were children (could be the "Older brother/Younger Brother" dynamic even though they might not be related)

Ceasar knocking them out is intriguing since he seems to be weak as fuck otherwise and Sanji once again showing the failed potential of current Nami imo.

Samurai seems boss as fuck with that new technique to the point current Zoro who is fully impressed (and might want to test himself against him and/or learn that technique)

[Glass Rebel]

Wolf Guy is better than 95% of everything I've seen you talk about.

There, I said it.



Anyway One Piece was pretty awesome, I had to reread it:

- Was Monet "made" by Law or is this a fruit power?

- Law seems to have some history with Virgo so I assume we're gonna see a flashback sooner or later. If this means Law being an important part of the story I'm all for it.

- The power that knocked Law, Smoker, Tashigi and the Strawhats out must come from Virgo I assume, the real question is however, is it Haki or something else? I don't remember anyone having selective Haki so why wasn't CC knocked out? Either that or CC's fruit has more than poison attributes.

[survivor]

Wolf Guy is better than 95% of everything I've seen you talk about. There, I said it.

None of my favourite manga I read this year have 20 chapters about rape.

[Glass Rebel]

None of my favourite manga I read this year have 20 chapters about rape.

It's a metaphor.





For rape.

Edit: The hate directed at Wolf Guy is completely unwarranted, at its core it's a story about love and finding your place in the world. You guys just don't get it.

[Rebel Leader]

Are you hyped?

will watch

[gunbo13]

Wolf Guy is better than 95% of everything I've seen you talk about.

Wolf Guy is better then:

Accel World
A Girl by the Sea
Blood Lad
Chrno Crusade
Dengeki Daisy
Goodnight Punpun
Hekikai no AiON
Hetakoi
Kekkaishi
Kuragehime
Legend of Maian
Let's Lagoon
Love in Hell
Lovely Complex
Lucifer and Biscuit Hammer
Ludwig Revolution
Lunar Legend Chronicles
Oresama Teacher
Otaku no Musume-san
Ouran Host Club
Sun-ken Rock

?

That's just a taste. Don't make me go full list wars.

Jesus, Madara. I shouldn't be surprised, really

learn to take a joke gunbo ;)

[Solune]

Any chance Magico had was ruined with that awful reset. That along with it's episodic yet not episodic structure. Though I've been calling it ass for some time even though it was fun early on. Nuke it. Terrible manga.

I think upandaway likes Pajama though. I'm gonna give it a try when I get around to starting new manga.

Darker than a Wolf Guy night, More testosterone than Hokuto no Ken, that is Wednesday.

Are you hyped?

Art looks good, need to add this to my list too.

[StickSoldier]

Man, OP is so much better than Naruto.... I wonder if Kishimoto even enjoys writing that shit every week.

Nope, serious business. I've done plenty of write-ups for those series. I just usually do quick ones these days like a random chapter of Daisy or Countrouble. I was hyping Freezing for awhile though and now as I predicted, it has turned back into a streaming pile of hell. Still was pretty damn hype for that time. Beam can back me up on that. I'll post a lot more shoujo just for you GR. Full paragraphs on Ao Haru Ride TBD.

See, this is what I'm talking about. I picked up Freezing because of you. I was suspicious because Beam you know but still, I gave it a chance and it was shit with shit fanservice.

But yeah, I'm not lying when I say that I've never seen you post about these series. I'm sorry. Hey, at least we agree that punpun is great!

Quoting so you can't edit it ever. :)

It's technically right so I stand by my opinion.

Wolf Guy is better than Aunt Tits and TLR(D).

They're just so abysmal that it's sometimes hard to tell which is worse but everybody knows the truth.

If only you listened to me

can you forgive me?

[That Singer Guy...]

Virgo makes sense, I mean Oda copied Mashima with the dragon already, might as well get some Zodiac in there. And Kinemon is a fire-based dragon slayer if I ever saw one.

I haven't been in the manga thread for months but are you the new DTL? or are you getting troll on? lol
