Horimiya Chapter 64

Sickeningly adorable chapter. <3

I get the feeling that the manga is coming to a close which isn't a bad thing at all. Better for it to have a great ending and relatively short run than to be dragged on and on.
 
uq holder 125

I wonder how long this fight is going to last. I feel like both of them fighting could destroy like the whole arena easily.

tomo 340 - 341

I'm pretty sure the original goal was to get Tomo to go outside looking like that. I'm also pretty sure she'll run into Jun while she's out.
 
There's a Demon Lord On The Floor 14

I wish we'd stop wasting time on the bad characters like her and the angle/tao/whatever blonde. More mushroom. Always more mushroom.

I do find it funny that the most humorous scenes in this manga are the small asides and not any of the big jokes. I laughed out loud at her throwing the sword under the floor and the quick speech bubble of Nukoduke in the background twice.

It's run twice as long as it needed to, so I don't know how it hasn't already done that

Kingdom 476

About dang time kanki started doing the kinda crap he's famous for.

Griffith is a piece of shit and his Utopia is built on lies

Yes and doubly so, but miura has made it very clear that the humans that do join falconia seem to have it FAR better than anywhere else in the world, so It's Complicated.gif. Do you kill him and let hundres of thousands go back to the mysery of their previous lives?

were that the choice, of course guts's pick woulda been lol yes, so yeah, miura prolly gon force a "caska or griffith: pick one" dilemma down the line.

grimace is simultaneously right and wrong about horimiya because yeah if it had ended when they actually got together that would've been fine, but reading it altogether in one big blast made it pretty clear to me it was just fine having the extended second half of 'actually we are totally together and this is our life now' was great too

Honestly it was boring and reinforced why series don't show the boring relationship garbage shit normally. Because its when you learn to fart in front of each other and gain weight.

I'm not mad about it or anything, I just don't understand why any of that needed to exist or even vaguely made it better.

For me, the boring parts were mainly when the manga focused on characters besides the two leads. They weren't necessarily bad but I only read this for Hori and Miya moments. I really enjoyed the parts involving the two leads.

I think that the mangaka wanted to show the relationship of a "normal" couple. It doesn't need to exist but for those that want more fluff between the two and see how they act as girlfriend/boyfriend it is welcome. But yes, it needs to end soon.

Shaman King might be the closest to what you want I think iirc.

Godannar is an anime but it's one example off the top of my head, the leads get married in the first episode.

Ore Monogatari is a shoujo series, but it has the main characters getting together by the end of volume 1 and it's up to 12 volumes so far in Japan.

LOL

is this even possible given what he's become and the bullshit he can already do?.

I'm still waiting on how the fuck Gut's is gonna manage to even attempt that (i.e without using the belehlit he has)
 
I take incredible umbrage with the idea that not writing ongoing relationships or not having the end point of a story be when they get together being the only way to write about romance, relationships or whatnot. It's really narrow-minded and limits a lot of storytelling you can do. Just have them get together in that shonen. Or show the consequences of people's romantic decisions. Or the trials and tribulations of going out. Life doesn't fucking become smooth sailing once you start dating.
 
Jitsu wa Watashi wa 127

Oh man, I would be okay with a Shiho ending. I'd be okay with it, but goddam Youko might be one of the only main love interests in a manga that I am super all for. She's so fucking funny and I love her "Shaaaaah!" when she gets combative.
 
Jitsu wa Watashi wa 127

Poor Shima. Having all the girls actively plan so you don't end up with the girl must be rough. Also, does that mean his grand daughter would no longer exist?


Criminale! 13 - 14

Nice to see Ichimura making friends with the rest of the class. I wonder how long they'll keep teasing the last student though.
 
Homura's Revenge vol 1-2 (END)
If Madoka Kaname had known of the tragic transformation that would mark the end of her magical girl journey, how would her story have unfolded? In this telling of the story, Madoka remembers the outcomes of her previous timelines - but so does Kyubey. Even with the knowledge of her previous lives, can Madoka outmaneuver Kyubey and avoid her fate?
Aaand I got baited again. After the first chapter I figured this was going to be a light-hearted retelling where HomuMado and Kyubey play Stratego against each-other, but that lasted until around... episode 3. Instead I get to see Homura put through the suffering wringer for the nth time. True, that element is partially why I love the franchise, but I'd rather it happen to anyone other than her. Anyway, this was essentially just more traditional Madoka material, with enough deviations from the canon timeline to keep things both uncertain and compelling. If you love the parent story (I do) then you'll likely love this (I did).

Homura's the centre of attention for the entire manga and manages to partially salvage a terrible timeline, but I knocked off half a point because she does technically die, albeit briefly.

Holy fuck it only took Mashima 487 chapters to make one of these couples actually happen
 
Nozomi x Kimio 25
IT LIVES. I can think of few things more intimidating than facing off against Nozomi in a courtroom. Especially if her worse half is your attorney. Unsurprisingly, it already seems like she has the upper hand, even if it wasn't her own idea that triggered it.

She's not picky~

You got to admire her creativity.

It's entirely because she's fun to tease. No other impure motives here. Nope.

Not like he had any chance at besting her anyways.

Bleach 676

I was so hyped about this back when they first introduced Vizard's ability to do so. A little less impactful this late but still awesome.

One Piece 828

Sugar for crew member and Sanji's wife! Although it doesn't seem like she intends to betray her family too much, other than helping Sanji escape, so I guess that isn't a possibility. Lmao @ Lola mention, did she mention anything about this back on Thriller Bark?

For a second I thought Sanji's elder brother had some sort of fruit and used one of the enemy's comrades as a human shield, but I think his subordinate literally just jumped to take the bullet on command. I would prefer some new non-fruit non-armament foes so I hope Germa have more unique abilities.

Hunter X Hunter 356

Seems Hisoka is fucked. I thought 'find Hisoka and wait to explode on him' seemed like kind of a complex command for the Stamp, especially when we saw Chrollo use Black Voice for a similar timed move before. I guess maybe because he wouldn't know the name of the 'target' before.

Last line of the chapter seems to imply that Hisoka will use a new technique with some sort of suicide restriction. Wonder what it could be, he's not an enhancer like Gon and I doubt he's hiding a jacked up form like Biscuit via transmutation.

it seems to confirm that Luffy isn't as oblivious a blob when it comes to the opposite sex as we thought.

Hunter X Hunter Chapter 365 is all kinds of crazy but this whole fight has been a roller coaster ride. Really curious how Togashi is going to wrap all this up.

I don't actually think that was the case since he outright rejected Hancock's proposal. He seems to be fully aware of what that entails, this implies maybe, it wasadifficult decision for him. Though considering he spent 6 months with her at least and he was probably treated like a King I'm sure it's that strange.

Can't believe Sanji turned her down.... shocker really

Also Pedro come the fuck down lol... Pekom's vanished so I wonder what that is all about

Lastly we finally saw Sanji's last two siblings with their whipped hairdos

Puella Magi Homura Tamura vol 1-2 (END?)
In each new time flow she visits, Tamura - er, Homura - is introduced to a unique Madoka, Kyubey, Sayaka, Kyouko... and a fresh headache. Travelling blindly through the temporal landscape, Tamura - er, Homura - encounters worlds ever more wildly different from the one where she first befriended Madoka. The more Madokas behaving oddly she sees, the more Tamura - er, Homura - longs to meet her dearest friend as she once knew her, if only to reassure herself that she hasn't gone absolutely crazy!

4-komedy spinoff in which the titular heroine, Akemi Tamura, travels through a succession of bizarre alternate timelines. Comedic variants of serious series aren't usually my cup of tea, to the extent that I almost didn't pick this up. Good thing I changed my mind, since it's genuinely hilarious and oddly touching at times. Each chapter has a different setting that largely dictates the success of the humour, but the ideas are generally clever enough and/or sufficiently well-utilised that there's rarely a dud moment. Naturally you need to be familiar with the source material to appreciate it fully. Definitely recommended for fans of the franchise.
