The Kabocha Wine 1
kabochawine1.png
kabochawine1a.png
Transfer student, Aoba Shunsuke, arrived at Sunshine School only to find the premises empty. He was secretly gleeful to be the first to reach the school, oblivious to the fact that it was Foundation Day and a rest day for the institution. At that moment, a big-sized "L"(Eru) beauty by the name of Natsumi appeared before him and the two of them hit off together even though Shunsuke was so much smaller than her. This is a romance story that shares the joys and woes of the "SL" combi between Shunsuke and Eru.

The Kabocha Wine won the 1983 Kodansha Manga award for shounen.

This was on my wishlist for some reason so I decided to check it out as someone actually started translating this old series. So far it's a pretty charming romance story with some nice bits of art. WIll read more.

Nejimaki Kagyu 13

Oh boy, I was expecting the chairman of the school to be some mental case but I wasn't expecting him to look like an emaciated Jesus Christ. sogood

Gigantomakhia 3

This whole series is basically double-page spread porn. Can't wait for the last 3 chapters.

I checked out some martial arts recommendations from yesterday:

1 2 3 Change

Megane turns into one of her three split personalities in face of danger. Some lewd-ness, art is pretty standard, characters didn't seem that interesting. Don't think I will read this.

Sumomomo Momomo

Being Ohtaka's first manga and the premise (strong martial arts girl wants to marry weak boy who she thinks is strong to conceive a child that continues their lineage) intrigued me but the girl is waaaay too young to make me feel comfortable reading this. Especially that one panel where she's wearing practically nothing. We'll see.

Dragon's Rioting

Dude dies if he gets aroused, somehow ends up at a 99% female school where most look like porn stars and has to use his amazing martial arts to avoid getting a boner. Art is good, fights so far haven't been terribly exciting and it reminds me of that one manga/anime series where the fighter's clothes rip during fights. Not Senran Kagura but it was also something school related.
 
Tsuki Tsuki! 31

Suddenly, development! I can't remember what the significance of what's-her-name who showed up at the end is.

That's the guy who did those Saber doujins, right? I'm so curious.. I'm so curious....
I haven't read those Saber doujins but if it's that Saber doujin with those panels which're always being posted then yes it's that author.

Sorry, there's a bunch of stuff I like, but the context made it sound like "what do you like anyway? do you even like anything?", which eeeeeh...

Oh, no. I was concerned it might sound like that. I was just curious about what some of your favorite series might be.
 

Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I probably don't want to know what a Saber doujin is, do I
 
everyone has good intentions.

Case in point: Madara thinks that the only way to achieve true peace is to force people to live inside a dream, because people will always, in practice, fan the flames of hatred and provoke future violence in their misguided, naive attempts towards creating peace.

So Madara wants to build The Matrix?

I stopped reading Naruto somewhere around where Killer Bee made an entrance. I had the intention of picking it up again once it's completed but now I am not so sure if it is worth it.

goddamit keiko, why u do this??? ;_;

Kasane 5

i can't help but have this feeling theres a tragic fate waiting for everyone that has the lipstick used on them so I'm hope I'm wrong as I really don't want anything to happen to Iku. :(

Magudala de Nemure 6

This really feels like its far more wordy than it needs to be to the point where seemingly obvious things are a chore to make out at times (maybe its just the translation) but its about time shit started getting real.

After thinking about how much I want barty to join the straw hats, I will also accept him and Sabo starting their own crew.

Firefist Sabo + Bartelemeo following him around and loving him, starts a crew.

Naruto

Cool chapter, lots of beautiful full colored art. I like Sasuke's "last" words, surprisingly noble of him. Sasuke's injuries are pretty tame, he got his chest blow up by killer B and manage to survive, Sakura also saved Karin from a similar injury so I'm not even half preoccupied.

Naruto is a bigger deal, he needs Chakra which is someone pretty much everyone is running out, also the fodder can't afford to gave him his Chakra back, they are dead in the water without it.

Really weird seeing Tobi back, he had such a cool design can't believe there's another break so soon.

Bleach

Looks like James "Mask D Masculine" is finally dead and I loved Ywach backstory, make him seen like an evil God incarnate.

He's got a really great power that just seems wasted on this arc. There's so much story telling potential with that power that's likely going to go to waste considering the current track this arc is taking.

Are these drawn by the artists themselves? In this case Kishi?


EDIT: That cover was awesome.
