The color page was pretty awesome, like a vongola boss. Amano makes Tsuna pretty epic when he has the glove on and deathparation flame. Tsuna taking charge is a nice evolution for him and he's really come along way.

Im guessing the plan will still result in the babies staying babies in the end though.
 
Bleach
There is no real foreshadowing of anything; you're just overanalyzing random occurrences and assigning them significance, e.g. the fact that some shape in the Soul Society arc looked like their pendants doesn't intrinsically have independent significance beyond being the same shape. There really wasn't any real reason to believe Quincy-Shinigami war was significant beyond establishing Ishida's character arc, which has only been important in and of itself.
False. The matter of the fact Isshin and Ryuuken know each other, raise a lot of questions. The friendship between Uryuu and Ichigo is a mirror friendship between their fathers.
Edit: What I'm getting at is the fact that there wasn't any reason to assume the Quincy were actually the final villains beyond just hand waving the fact it could sort of make sense. It's not compelling to me, partially because instead of actually giving us any reason to care, Kubo just skipped to 10,000 fights.
It was implied by Ishida Souken tha that there might be another war between shinigami and quincies. Souken said that the war between the 2 should not happen again. I think that´s pretty big implication that there are quincies out there bent on revenge. But i will give you that the quincies were implied that there are the final villain. And maybe the quincies are not the final villain.

No one cares about Yogi Bear.

You are my enemy from now on :p

Seriously, Komamura is one helluva amazing bro.
That's why I decided to become a true friend to you. If something sad happened in your life, I would be there for you. If something happy happened in my life, I would share it with you. If you strayed from the path, I would admonish you. If you committed an error, I would forgive you. If you found yourself in a predicament, I would provide a foundation on which you could stand. All in order to make this man that had lost his love for the world be able to love the world once more.

This is one amazing quote. Komamura <3.

I dug the Naruto chapter. It's a retread technically but it's nice to see it from Itachi's perspective. It could've been a better moment if the build-up was smarter though.
Smarter, How?

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Nurahiyon's pseudo-cancellation makes this the second SJ Alpha series to "end" shortly after its inception (Bakuman being the first). This kind of doesn't bode well...

Don't worry, they got Barrage, that will save them...

There are 2 other series starting soon, maybe they will bet on them as well.
 
Well they also added Rurorouni Kenshi Restoration...

But theyve still yet to actually add anything they polled for.

Kenshin is money in the bank. They would add it even if their poll showed zero votes. (I think they would push out OP if they had to, even, RK sales were up there with GTO/Fruba/Naruto on this side of the ocean, I think)

What other series are being added?

Wait, this Mago you guys are talking about is Nurarihyon no Mago? I thought you guys were talking about something else. I've never heard the manga called Mago.

The fuck, it got cancelled? It always sold so well and had perhaps some of the best art out there as far as Shounen manga goes?

Naked Apron > Hand Bra just because of dat ass. That being said, Yo Kumagawa. This guy just exists for these moments doesn't he? Book Maker out of nowhere? Hax as fuck.

The Emukae/Zenkichi thing was expected but still ;_;

Technically, it's moving to "Jump NEXT" but that only comes out on Japanese holidays so it's essentially cancelled. The reason is that the author wants to take care of his kid.

One the one hand, I just recently got into this manga and I'm sad that it is basically gone before it has finished, but author taking care of his kid is a legitimate reason to change to a schedule that give shim more free time. I just hope this manga gets a proper conclusion.

I don't remember Kenshin sales being that high in NA to tell the truth .
Plus it would make no sense to push out OP when Bleach and Naruto ending soon .

So from what people saying Jump did not cancel the series but it was the choice of the author guess that make me feel a little better .

Barrage was added after Bakuman ended, but Kenshin is monthly, so they still need something else, Im guessing at the next anime manga convention they will say which of these will be added? (Beelzebub, Genson! Kodai Seibutsu-shi Pakki, Gintama, Haikyu!!, Hunter x Hunter, Inumarudahii, Reborn!, Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Koen-mae, Hashutsujo, Koisome Momiji, Kurogana, Kuroko no Basuke, Magico, Medaka Box, Nisekoi, Pajama na Kanoko, Sket Dance).

I was just saying hypothetically, if they had no room. God bless OP but it's just not a juggernaut over here. Here's a horrible PR proudly propping up RK as the #3 manga in US sales back in 2004. Not sure what magic would be required to get a real picture of overall GN success in that era.

Beelzebub: Likely, it's popular, there's fighting, it's funny
Gintama: No chance. Viz left this series to die alongside Bobobobo
HxH: I think they *want* to run it, but.. how stable is HxH release schedule lately?
Reborn: They still print the GNs, right?
Medaka: It has a lot going for it but not sure they want to run a girls-main series in SJ
Nisekoi: No chance, gotta think this has been earmarked for Shojo Beat GN release

Genson!, Haikyu, Inumarudahii, Kochira, Hasutsujo, Koisome, Kurogana, Kuroko, Pajama: No idea, gotta look these up...

Nisekoi

No one saw this coming.

And screw the picture misunderstanding. So sick of those.

Toriko

War? I'd rather everyone just go into the Gourmet World and start looking for ingredients like they've been doing the entire series. I really have no clue which direction this is going, but whichever it is, looks like we're ready to go into the Gourmet World finally.

I worry that the MC will eventually leave this house and we'll end up with less mom.
If that's the mom moar pls.
How does Mx0 get axed when Bleach still gets to run... The world is not kind :(

The Moon in Magico is real creepy :(
I see the Kano Loop™ is in effect again.
Nisekoi 30

onodera nooooo

Nisekoi 31

yo tsugumi

also
holy shit
shuu
that face
was amazing

ANOTHER GIRL? YO RAKU
LOL didn't someone call this earlier in the thread, was it haly or you or scy or something?
Just a matter of time before those keys become keyblade and the manga become a story about magical girls. Lol
Nise Hearts Fuck I knew there was something I disliked about this manga.
He needs to give Tsugumi the boot. Get this new chick to show up and replace her

Hell no. Tsugumi is 2nd best girl.

Haven't read any manga in a while, so I'm catching up on my the stuff I lost track of.

Finished catching up to Berserk last night.

WTF is this shit. This is never getting done.....but it's so good :(. Not to mention the new arc is a flashback ffs.

One Piece is up next. Lost track around the beginning of the mermaid island arc.

I'm still at chapter 323, as I'm waiting for a bunch of chapters to accumulate (takes some time, yup) so I can have a longer reading session then. A flashback, so it's again about Guts' childhood? Damn, it's time for Elfhelm already.

Those ears.

Those tissues next to Ms. Smith.

That boob driving.

At this pace he'll get 2 more chicks in the next chapter, hahaha.

What manga is this? I tried to google and got brought back right here for "everyday centaur girl"

Inumaru ended, and it wouldn't have worked. It's a gag manga.
Kochikame? HAHAHAHAHA No.
Kuroko's Basket ... Maybe. Unfortunately, Viz seems to hate sports manga.
Magico might work, it's got wizards and all that. Unless it's nearing the end/possible cancellation.

As for HxH, it's on hiatus yet again. Not going to happen.
 
It's Not My Fault That I'm Not Popular 21

In which our heroine spends the chapter trying to get the slut to hug her.

Nisekoi 30-31

So this is the part where a new awesome girl shows up to turn this series into something decent, right?

Right?

Tower of God 101

So good. It was inevitable they'd team up, but still great to see.

You know what? Raku should just give the finger to all the girls with keys and go for Tsugumi since she is the only one who likes him without any stupid keys or promises.

But Tsugumi is obviously the 3rd key girl. I mean, they both wear flowers in their hair!

They gotta stop adding monster girls at one point cause I don't see how the guy's house will fit all of them
