Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Wait where in the newest Bleach chapter was there a tease of Aizen?

Edit: Reread the chapter and I get why some people would think that, but I want MORE then "I'm going to the Central 46" which could mean anything

All of Bleach is an Aizen tease. (They're talking about the Central 46 comment).

Bleach is so nonsensical I don't think even Beam tries to defend it anymore.
 
I honestly don't understand how some people say My Hero Academia will be the next Naruto in terms of popularity. Like I can see it becoming successful but not like Naruto, but I guess we will just have to wait and see.

I'd be lying if I said I weren't a little relieved that Kazuya kicked the bucket early to clear the way for OTP but a part of me kinda want to see how the story would play out, had he not died.

Well thanks to Kubo Aizen is basically Bleach now so the only thing left is to wait for the true star. lol

I'm honestly baffled he got all that shit for that utterly fucking dumb Fake Karakura endless war shit, so he wrote a new endless war featuring loads and loads of shitty ghost nazis. The only relevant plot points so far are all retcons of other things.

Kubo is the biggest employed hack around.

Side Note: If you keep on going you see Nanatsu taking all those spots in the tweenties
man did the anime do good for the series
 
Finished At Least, Like That Snow, and Shuumatsu no Laughter for the short read club. The former kinda didn't do much for me, though that latter gave me some slight Berserk vibes, with the main guy being a less assholish Guts, and the townsfolk being equally as shitty. Felt pretty good for five chapters, and probably could've kept going on to tell other stories with that character.

Now only short manga left to read this week.

Does anyone know if there is a comic book thread?

Whilst I'm here, can someone recommend me some sci-fi/cyberunk Manga (or comics if you guys know any)? I know of Biomega and Abara, both look cool.

In most cases an Anime helps boost manga sales. Look at Tokyo Ghoul for example which was extremely successful, but there are exceptions. Go look at Akame Ga Kill, this is pretty much why they are going filler route with the anime RIP 😵

Comics OT

Anything by Nihei Tsutomu (Blame! And Knights of Sidonia, did Abara) is good for sci-fi. I don't think there's a lot of hard sci-fi manga.
There's of course Ghost in the Shell for cyberpunk.

Comic book threads happen monthly and get away with going in the OT proper instead of community.

The guy behind the two scifi manga you mentioned has some other works- Blame, Noise, and Knights of Cydonia. Author name is Tsutomu Nihei.

Because they don't get bumped enough for mods to care.

Ok, I searched in Community which is why I didn't find anything.

Thanks.

It's hilarious to see him wondering why she choose him, when the question really should be the other way around.

And what a random ending with the cop showing up, wonder if she's alone.

Most people usually die after getting hit by a car at high speed and thrown 40m in the air. But not this guy, he's a professional! The lady is scary~

Shioon entering badass mode yet again, though I don't like any of the implications of what's been said the past few chapters.

I hope no one here goes around looking at his other works after reading that.

Yeah, I did a double take when I saw that.

Nintendo really knows how to choose their artists. First kamirenjaku Sanpei, now oyster.

I should note that looking at google images for "oyster" isn't entirely SFW either. Say I have a lewd mind all you want, nuts to that. I know lewd when I see gosh dang lewd.

Hmm, i only have read Karisome no Hana.

Too late! :p

Though seriously, nobody should read oyster's porn stuff. It's the worst of the dark side of hentai, full of violence and scathing misogyny. It's the kind of stuff that can scar you for life.

Which is why it's fascinating to know that he did some official nintendo mangas.
