Soul Cartel 104 - 105

These end up so short when they are action heavy chapters, though the benefit is I can just let chapters stack and not have to bear the pressure of waiting another week for them to take a battle stance and then end the chapter, like it did here :(
 
So I just marathoned Magi and all I can say is what the fuck happened? It was pretty cool for like 140 chapters then the plot got all crazy with like 20 different people all having different convoluted objectives for the world or whatever. I miss wacky dungeon adventures ;_;

Also is Morgiana doomed to irrelevancy now? She's now the weakest of all the main characters/villains by far.

It's important that anyone who doesn't check the anime thread sees this.

Where is your god now?

Is SHAFT doing this?

Is SHAFT doing this?

Yup.

Still not enough to make me see it.

Oh man. My friend and I laughed pretty hard at this. I love that line, though, since it's so appropriate to the image above. Shoulders are obviously a pretty intimate place to be touched, so her argument is flawed.

In what universe?

Wolf Guy 98-107

Yeah, I had stopped reading this quite a while ago since despite any good qualities the manga might have, watching a love interest, or any woman for that matter, get gangraped all NTR porno style, is not an enjoyable read. The women in this mangaka's series get tortured enough even without it.

Ultimate!! Hentai Kamen

This was an incredibly amusing series, pretty much every chapter made me laugh. This is a series where you know if you'll like it from chapter 1. If you don't like the first chapter then you won't like the rest, they're all pretty much the same thing. The 2 main gags are Hentai Kamen's special moves and his entrances, I found them funny everytime but it's probably not for everyone. There isn't really a story and what little story there was gets thrown out the window after the time skip in the last few chapters. Hentai Kamen was a funny series that I would reccomend at least giving a shot.

Art: 7/10
Story: lol/10
Characters: 8/10
Overall: 8/10
 
Yup.

Have you read the latest chapters?

Yea, it's a lot better than the last like, 50 or so chapters but now it's going straight back into political drama and evil/not-evil schemes. It's pretty exhausting reading all the craziness in such a short amount of time.

edit: I guess I have a few questions too about the political situation, so

-Empress - wants to destroy the world
-Kouen, 2nd prince guy - want to unify the world under one king
-Tatskuya (sp) and Judal - probably going to seriously fuck shit up in the future
and then everyone else is pretty much kind of neutral, though it's unlikely that the princesses will turn against Aladdin and friends, also there is something wrong with the water-Djinn controlling princess that we don't quite know yet.

is that pretty much it?
 
Ace of Diamond 38 - 40

Good emotions, comedy, and nice baseball spirit for all. Im still amazed the art is quite good this early on and the plot reminds extremely exciting even here at this training camp level.

I mean, even I- wait hold on



There's :dtl in Wolf Guy? Formerly-stoic-now-Joker Haguro is actually popping a boner (yes, it's actually in one of the panels) thanks to Inugami?

AHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAHAHHAA
AAAHAHAHAHAH
OHOHOOOO
HHOOHOHOHOOOO~

Oh my god, I'm dying here. I should not have put this series on hold when I did. This is too glorious. Haguro is in full yandere mode!

Those chapters is like it became the dark, fucked up yaoi version of twilight. The very definition of so bad is good, is a shame ppl missed this because the Namek rape saga.

The daily adventures of a 34 year old unemployed woman.

As slice of life as you ever expect something to be. Brings memories of day gone days of being unemployed.
 
I never knew how cliche this series was until I watched the anime Today

Also the animators had a field day with their constant camera panning and random colour gradients... The manditory disco ball in the school grounds doesn't help either.



Camera pan with face shot followed by more camera pan with colour gradient



Edit: Just wanted to let it out with you MangaGaf

I know AnimeGaf wouldn't understand... Their more moe then anyone here and that is saying something

Wander into that thread to be loss into the abyss

I thought that really made this adaptation far more interesting and intriguing than the manga certainly is, and not to mention the perfect voices chosen for shu, raku, and onodera.


Its not like it has the sheer genius writing that Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. possesses.

I miss this series :(

Edit: Don't get me wrong the effect where great like the rain scene but they switched to too many different palettes constantly that you'd think you where watching a different anime in ever 5 minutes

Wolf Guy Ookami No Monshou 56

This guy is batshit crazy after being driven insane by Inugami, wait what why is he kissing him? Oh shit he's defecating on that guy's tongue he just ripped out. I knew there was a reason I was reading this.
 
Tera Girl 01

o8Y2NpYl.png


The story follows the love story of the middle daughter of a priest in a temple as she falls in love with a pastor's son.

I guess the premise is interesting but it is pretty shoujo. Not so much in shoujo drama, but we got the cheerful female lead, the doomed childhood friend and the pretty bishounen love interest. Not so sure how must I want to keep reading this...

Gunka no Balzer 19

The way this chapter was gonna end was obvious as hell within the first few chapters but it fucking owned anyway. I just hope none of the students die. :(

Golondrina 15

Only EST EM could convey the overall atmosphere of the last few pages in such a tense manner. What a manga.

Nobunaga no Chef 58

that panel with mori… ;_;

Is Amazon a good place to buy manga? Starting a collection and I didn't realize Barnes and Noble put security stickers inside :(

Thanks ahead of time!
 
Murcielago 1
Genre: Action, Horror, Seinen, Yuri, Waifu, Holy Fuck

A batshit mass murderer is given a reprieve from her execution to work for the government killing other maniacal criminals. In this opening chapter, she deals with another such psychopath by chasing down his train through the subway in her partner's car, turning him into bloody mulch and then somehow causing the train to burst from the underground and into the top of a skyscraper. It's crazy, gory, over-the-top yuri magnificence that I absolutely can't wait to read more of. If the MC did ever follow through on her implied intention to eventually kill her waifu then I would just die.
 
All you need is kill anyone?

The first time I heard of this, is that the Edge of Tomorrow is basically the western movie adaption of the novel featuring Tom Cruise which comes out in a few months I believe (I don't really expect it to be good because the only Tom Cruise movie I liked was Top Gun for how cheesy it was and Tropic Thunder he was funny as a side character). Then I looked it up and I'm surprised that that Obata is drawing this series. They should have kept the title All You Need is Kill. It sounds awesome in a engrishy, I used google translate kind of way, while Edge of Tomorrow sounds pretty generic.

Yes the buy 4 for 3 deal as well as the huge discounts on viz manga (often their manga is just around 5.99 if you preorder early enough) makes it the only place I buy manga. Plus in store selection is awful and their yaoi manga be all hidden.

Someone finally started translating this? omfg :eek:ooooo
 
The American Jump editor said to be kn the lookout for World Trigger, Souma, Haikyuu and Isobee Isobee Minogatari. Guess theywill be getting releases here. Though I have no fucking clue why they would release that shit Monogatari here when there is plenty of better manga. You wnt release AssClass and Psi Kusou Saiki because they are gag manga and Japanese among other reasons but you release the most Japanese of them all? Fuck off and Release Soul Catcher(s)

The Town Where You Don't Know Where the Plot is Going
This isn't a good thing, mind you. I don't think Seo knows what he's doing. I want to drop this, but I also like watching it crash and burn. I mean... I did drop this, but why did I still read it? Tell me if it becomes rageworthy/amusing again.

*Drops mic manga*
 
Kingdom 301-303

Holy Shit! Kanki has huge balls of steel *bows*

Te to Kuchi 01-08


Really enjoyable story so far. Art is very good.

MC is pretty funny and the characters have personality. The plot thickens in the last chapter making me wanting more.
