Of all the people, why Seven Seas?

SAO Girl Ops 3
So yeah, this continues to play hopscotch between the points where there's a lot of interesting story stuff and the stupid bullshit nonsesne Alfhiem is "loved" for.
liking this series doesn't pay enough.

The number of reasons to read this just decreased by 1. Bringing them to a grand total of 0. I'm reasonably sure she'll return, but until then, added to ignore list.
 
Kare no Tokubetsu na Kare 4

Incredible chapter, the thing one does while watching their actor classmate on screen while in his apartment and an intense actiony scenes comes up. Loved how he barged in just in time to help him out, especially when his hand wouldnt listen to him. Good progress.

Magi 203

I hope this turns into a harem manga. And Aladdin can probably turn himself into a girl too, and Olba already looks like a girl. It could work pretty well.
 

Antiwhippy

the holder of the trombone
Hoshi Mamoru Inu and Zoku Hoshi Mamoru Inu. Not that it will ever happen but I would buy the fuck out of them.

Those do look pretty cool.

Shame about the JManga thing really. Hopefully the new crunchyroll manga stuff doesn't go the same way as JManga did.
 

Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Aku no Hana

I think Kasuga is actually infecting people with his insane craziness because that was a pretty random reaction.
 
Houkago Play 46-50 (R 1-5)

If there are any players alive at the end of the session then the GM is doing it wrong.

Never been particularly enthusiastic about this, despite my fondness for the art style, but this is probably the most entertaining it's been. Not least because it's more action orientated than the previous volumes.

Oniichan Control 22

Tsk. If you visit someone's house with a box cutter with the intention of slicing them up, it's just bad form to not follow through on it. Though I suppose having Noa in jail would limit the series a bit.
 
Nisekoi False Love 98
BY09yDoCcAEtK8w.png:large


Its like chapters like these that make Nisekoi not a bad series and something I want to see animated. Onodera put into words all the things that I like about Raku Ichijou and he was really good and great and everything. Best chapter since the Shu race of sorts.

Card Captor Sakura #1

i sincerely didn't remember starting like that, kind of a strange start if you ask me but whatever...
Having more experience now i get stuff that before couldn't like when Kero-chan says that he doesn't like his nickname because it makes it sound like he's a frog (kero kero is the onomatopea of the frog's cry in japan) or stuff like this:

At least it shows that the Italian adaption didn't destroyed it.
I am enjoying this however and thinking about it, i'm totally ok with having Sakura as the original winner of Saimoe.

Baby Steps 1-6

The start is very Eyeshield21-esque... i only hope that it doesn't continue like it.
Sorry Kurita.

Your hope i- oh, you're one of 'em peeps who use the button for spoilers instead of writing it out. I should really get used to doing that.

I see Mitsuhashi has slowly turned into a great fighter while Itou can now tank damage like there's no tomorrow because he takes a ton during every fight, truly a frightening combo.

Also poor Riko-chan, she reminds me a lot of Mor.

Prison School volume 3

So much talent wasted. Akira Hiramoto should be drawing full on porn.
That said, great volume. Nothing goes well for Kiyoshi, ever. One way or another, everything ends tits up.

Did someone actually watched all Murata's livestream? It lasted for 10 hours more or less!
I always wanted to see how a mangaka creates something, it was really interesting... also that Genos that he started from scratch was really beautiful.

Your hope i- oh, you're one of 'em peeps who use the button for spoilers instead of writing it out. I should really get used to doing that.
Why the fact that i used the button interrupted your sentence? WHAT WERE YOU GOING TO SAY PANDA-CHAN?
TELL ME PLS.
 
Otogi Taisen Fantasma 01-02

Ordinary guy suddenly becomes the next king of some mystical land and meets his guardian who will protect him from incoming assassins.

OR

Ordinary guy gets attacked by incoming assassins who will all join his harem in due time.

I do enjoy all these fairy tales and such references these assassins have at the very least. The dialogue feels like a mess at times.

There were reasons to read maken-ki!?

Actually, I liked the first few vols and I like the settings and setup with the powers but it really is all fanservice after awhile and the anime just dials it up even more. I just stopped following it after I left Japan though. I haven't had the urge to go back and catch up. Kind of like Ao no Exorcist.

I'm baaaaaack.

I know I'm LTTP but I got this for you guys:

Naruto F

Really this was just trash. Same stuff we've been seeing for the last few chapters with no real progression going on. I'm glad Obito is finally defeated in the very least, and after that I'm not seeing Madara as too much of a threat unless Kishimoto creates some type of hax shit that it turns out Madara absorbed the powers of the Jinruuki and them capturing them back was all an illusion.

Bleach B

Surprisingly a solid chapter this week. Actual progression happened and gets a new focus on a character we haven't seen much. I just hope Kubo don't fuck this up like he did to Unohana.

One Piece B

Another solid chapter. Backstory is a lot more interesting than I expected it to be, with some very dark visuals layered everywhere. Hopefully the finish, including Law's story, will deliver.
 
Seraph of the End Chapter 4
tumblr_mw4ow8dHLo1qbxqfpo1_500.png


Guren feels like a more memorable character in the genre of his position that it is always a blast just seeing him and Yuichiro going at it. Yuichiro and Kimizuki too are great and then Yoichi as always. I like the cast setup and hopefully they all stay in a team togeter as we go on. Bonding through the family issue was something that was really good and well done and Im glad it didnt at least lead to tears and such but just new found dedication and determination. Really surprised at 4 solid and outstanding chapters back to back. Its phenomenal.

this turning into pacific rim for a chapter was the first legit interesting thing to happen in this series for a while now
 
Otasuke Miko Miko-chan 01-08

nOhFDAIl.jpg


A timid boy in an effort to revive his family's shrine becomes the magical girl of the shrine tasked with protecting the peace of the town and making some extra money for the shrine.

Kinda silly but the fact they are going for the interesting route, has me all in it.
 
Orthoros


An one-shot about a pair of clean freaks who grant humans wishes in exchange for their souls.

A fun oneshot. The art and use of black and white is pretty cool and the dialogue is pretty snappy. Not sure how much potential this has as a full series but it was a fun read.

There was one arc that was really good and then it was just kind of eh.

Though I will forever give props to this manga for having a scene where the main dude breaks his own back to avoid an attack. That shit is beyond badass!
 

BatDan

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Well, either link em or bring em over

Alright.

One Piece Spoilers

- Violet is princess Viola.
- Monet was a ​​handmaid in the Palace. She kidnapped Viola with Dolfamingo's crew.
- ​​Dolfamingo defeated King Riku and the army. They became Dressrosa's heroes.
- Toy Soldier confirms that Viola joined Dolfamingo's crew for saving King Riku.
- More fighters get turned into toys​.
- Luffy meets Zoro and Kinemon and talks to them but Bellamy stands behind.

​End of chapter.​

I can't link spoilers since AP closed off the spoiler forum to non-members.

Honestly, I'm tired of that place. Some of the One Piece conversations they have are 100 times dumber than the Big One/Angry Grimace/Beam wars that happen every other week.

Scientia 3-7 (END)

This was a fantastic set of stories. I think 'Drugs' is the only story I had any problem with, I think the ending could have used a couple more pages. It didn't feel as complete as the other stories, at least to me. I like bittersweet endings and every single story has one, some leaning more towards sweet and others more bitter. The art is nice, some of the characters looked a bit samey but it certainly isn't bad art. The characters were great for the most part, which is good because the stories are really character focused. Overall I loved Scientia and I'll probably check out some of the authors other works.

Story: 10/10
Art: 8/10
Characters: 10/10
Overall: 10/10
 
Ore to Ichino no Game Doukoukai Katsudou Nisshi 00-05

Z5uT6r1l.png


Something about a game club and then magical powers and then dunno, this is probably one giant chuunibyou delusional at this point.

Saying it's a mess is probably putting it lightly.

Will keep reading.
