This is some real ass End Game shit if Naruto is actually paying attention to Hinata.
Still weird Sasuke is off on his own adventure during all of this.

So...
Naruto X Hinata
Sasuke X Karin
Sakura X Sai

I think Hinata is actually the most useful female in this manga now. Granted that's not saying much, but still! Even if all she ever does is renew Naruto's confidence, it would still be one of the most useful actions since it would prevent crying Naruto from reappears constantly.

Seriously. I've already said it, but she's done more (important things) in this chapter than every other female character put together.

After the war arc is done there will probably be a cooldown chapter or two before the Sause's shit goes down. Sause is final villain confirmed.

Muy bueno.

The Hinata fan in me is hoping that Kishi doesn't kill off Hinata just to further prove the whole Naruto/Obito parallel or whatever. We get it.

I'm hoping there is another timeskip between this arc and the final Sasuke arc. I'd prefer a Hokage Naruto defending the village from the powered up renegade rather than teh Sauce showing up to destroy the already destroyed village.
 
Naruto

Fuck Hinata. I feel like a villain losing.

Well, since Sakura became meaningless since good knows when. I guess she'll be back as soon Sasuke comes back too.

No one likes Sakura. Not even the author. That's why he sabotaged her long ago in order to make Hinata the heroine/most popular girl.

I wouldn't mind that, but I'd like some chilled out chapters as well. It's been all big fights and serious business since Pain's invasion so a lot of the big moments haven't felt all that big because there's been no real lull in the action.

Chikan Otoko 18 has appeared.
It's the longest chapter yet, at 59 pages.
It's also
not completely safe for work
.
Go read it now.

Oh those would be nice, only the author kinda sucks at them and is seeming to avoid them, so I'm not holding out any hope on them happening

Did you guys hear that earth-shattering sound? It's the sound of a hundred million NaruHina shippers screaming SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE at the same time, hahahaha.

The translation for this chapter was really bad.

Anyway, not much to say. It will be funny to see all the shippers disappointed when Naruto forgets this ever happened after the war.

Sorta saw Hinata's bitch slap coming, but I still had the biggest shit-eating grin on my face when it happened. Good stuff. Still bitter about how screwed Neji got, but this was a nice development.

Think I'll go poke around some Naruto fan forums. Haven't been to them in ages, but the shippers must be going berserk. Haha.

The shippers are coming...

Although I am interested if Hinata will actually get a power up, or just be used as support for Godzilla mode. I would assume the latter, but the former would be sweet.
 
One piece is out now.

One Piece
That ending man! Also Franky putting up a fight is a plus. I've always thought of doflamingo as a puppet man or something but that doesn't really explain the flying.

We don't get another chapter until the 16th right?
 
One Punch Man 1-20

Holy crap, I love this. I love everything about it.

It's really fast paced, no bullshit drama and background story and while I'm curious about his strength, I don't really care right now and his explanation was so ridiculous, it just made me laugh.

His face kills me sometimes. The way it's drawn is so simple, but adds to the atmosphere. In that one scene, where he went after the mole, it was actually scary and it could've been straight out of an Ito manga.

And hey, Raiden is in it too!

Unlike JoJo or One Peace, it's really easy to read, which could get in the way, once I have to wait for a new release. That's quite a bummer.

Man, it's no fun if the twist was that easy to figure out. Step it up Oda.

Oh wait, I think the end of the chapter just did that for him.

I'll be damned if this actually goes anywhere, but I'm pretty sure not even Kishimoto would try to kill the same character twice (even if the first time didn't count).

That said, my inner NaruHina fanboy is going berserk right now.

I bet she dies next chapter.

THAT LAST PANEL!

Rest of the chapter was pretty meh, especially the twist we all saw coming, but Doflamingo racing to Punk Hazard more than saved the chapter.

This is a weird one.

On the planet Hekiou there is a war that's been going on for a long while between two generations of colonies, dubbed "First" and "Second".
The First are humans, while the Second are more monster like. The Second are also shown to be pretty strong, enough to have taken a lot of terrain from the First.
To face against the Second, between various strategies, a certain military unit was also created: a unit formed only by women who are able to use the power of teleportation thanks to the implantation in their wombs of organic tissue from the Nibas, alien creatures from Hekiou. So yeah, they basically get pregnant with these alien thing all in order to teleport troops around.

I was finding this whole thing a bit hard to swallow, especially given certain aspects of the book (it's a military setting, so there are certain aspects of the military represented that can be annoying -asshole dude making sexual remarks toward them, or dropping a porn magazine featuring military teleportation women on the path the girls usually take- especially when it concerns a unit of only women and the way certain male military cadets act), though reading the first volume I learned (thanks to a very quick flashback), that there are worse things that can be done/were done to the women of the colony in this war by their own people.
When one of the female cadets gets her instructor angry -she talks back to her about possible problems with the implants and people not being suitable candidates-, the instructor shuts her up telling her that if they aren't found suitable for the unit, they'd be sent to a place worse than where they are now, a place where they don't even have human rights so she should hope everyone will be suitable.
This part is expanded upon in the flashback: Women were thrown from airplanes as human bombs, something that's supposed to be in the past and something the women in charge of the unit don't want to go back to.

So yeah, the first book deals with the training of the unit and the protagonist, the cadet Mana Oga, being all intent on becoming a great teleporter.

As I said it's a weird book, but I'm kind of interested in seeing how it progresses, in spite of feeling some distress reading it.

Did........did a named character just die in the present in One Piece?

Also HOLY SHIIIIIITTTTTTTTTT.

she's not dead

i'll bet my account on it

Obito's a goddamn sadist, and Naruto actually almost lost it. Good thing the Hinata Bitch slap™ woke him out of his stupor. That cliff-ender was a bitch, I want to see what happens next T-T

Monet not being dead would be the biggest Grade-A bullshit since Pell. There is no way you survive even a small cut to the fucking HEART.

I like her still :| I like her a lot more than Hinata, anyway, to be honest. Maybe if she had a larger presence early on or something.

I wonder if this'll top Thriller Bark's ending with Kuma. I'm sure Law won't make it out of this arc so easily. Didn't think Luffy would be affiliated with Doflamingo directly, much less the one to take him down, but if Doflamingo really is aiming to be the pirate king then I could see them at odds. There could also be another strong character to push off Doflamingo, much like Rayleigh did in Sabaody.

Who cares about Naruto and One piece !!!

HOLY SHIT that molester chapter. I didn't expect that even though that's god damn realistic in a "real world" based manga. God damn manga have twisted my view of the world.

Who the f cares about Loli right now..
 
Naruto

If Kishi does to Hinata the same thing he did after the Pain arc, completely forget about this, i´m going to be really upset.

one piece

Expected twist, but damn at that last page. It´s much sooner than i thought. But at least i will Luffy go all out after the timeskip if the confrontation happened. Luffy and crew + Law vs Delflamingo. Where´s Law´s crew? I want to see the bear. He´s probably blue walking over the ocean.

Damn you Kusagari, now you made me want to read the manga.
