the breaker nw -

The old man has to be the biggest shit talker in the series.

Probably going to be three more months until we see shioon pull out the shonen hero bullshit against his teacher (not sunsengnim, fucking koreaboo translators). Feels bad.
 
Beelzebub!

Holy shit what a chapter. Kunieda confessed! It was badass as well! o_O! So happy for my main girl.

Hope she ends up with Oga at the end. Go Beel and Oga dream team!

Nine Arts Dragon is still an idiot but disappointing to see Shion going weepy over him, or at least approaching him this way. The guy was an idiot in the first series and he is just more of an idiot now. Hoping Shion at least gives some grief. Personally, I think the Manga author failed in making the Nine arts Dragon a character worthy of any kind of respect. He just seemed like a goofy, irresponsible, emotionally shallow guy with admittedly serious strength in the first series. He had few redeeming features. He was in short, a bit of a git. Now he is a huge git and just as emotionally immature.

Bleach 397

Seems Kubo plays too much Kingdom hearts. Explain everything = xehanort did it.

Bleach = Aizen did it.

What a glorious bad guy.

Ohshitbrb daddy just showed up!
 
You know...I have a feeling that Minato's farewell to Naruto in the upcoming chapters is going to have a LOT of emotions in it, just by the sheer fact that Kishi may want to honor his father through his work.

:'(

I can already see the feels.

Only 10 out of about 46 or so chapters have been released in English so far. Anyone know if this manga ends up being in a Nisekoi situation where no progress is made between anyone ever?
 
Fairy Tail

Ouch Erza is still getting tortured. Elfman is a bomber man. Jellal is dying and the power houses of FT is down and out. Looks really bad for the heroes. Gray's dad knows Natsu apparently lol. Things are getting really interesting.

Seems like Jellal wanted to get hit. He is plotting something.

These 2 were made for each other, two absolute boneheads of different kinds. Also, because neither person was expecting physical contact while going into a haunted house, we get this.


Youko's smoking hot in casual clothes.

I'm not exactly fond of the end chapter reveal, since it almost guarantees we'll have some sort of challenge/fight between the 2 people in love with Youko. Because animemanga

I hope not, but I'm willing to read "will they won't they" shenanigans a bit longer in this case beause the comedy is half decent and kind of refreshing.

The sudden switch to another team was kinda weird and the dudes girlfriend being one of the members felt kinda contrived but I'm really glad this is still building things up at a nice pace. The whole Summer Team B being nothing but a bunch of misfits really sets them up as the underdogs in this, and rightfully so. It also really helps that the art does such a stupendous job of portraying this sense of overbearing decay and uncertainty, really puts you in the shoes of these unfortunate people.

The way Yanagi went out was incredibly tragic and the moment they realised theres no real chance of anyone they knew being alive anymore was some really heavy shit but what really stood out to me was the last bit of v3. I actually loaded up the Simon & Garfunkel song on Spotify and tried to sync it with the pages of manga and it was just…

…just too good for words.

The Breaker: New Waves 145

I didn't really like Shioon being so passive after everything shown before (the various fights, the sparring), even if he was meeting once again his loved teacher, in which he has still so much faith.
On the other hand, this gave us some more badass old man giving badass speeches and doing badass expressions and hopefully delivering an asskicking next chapter, unless Shioon decides to fight himself, which would be quite cool.

It's not really contrived, but you'll find out in due time.

Glad you're still enjoying it.

Ok, I'll admit that I laughed at this.

GOD DAMN! O_O!

Also all you Bleach haters, please tone it down a bit. Just because Beam is gone and not shitting up the thread with defense doesn't mean you should go ham on hating Bleach.

We were avoiding Wednesday GAF for the most part and I'd like to keep it that way.

What does bold even mean, I'm not hip to your kid slang.
 
Beelzebub

Perhaps Beelzebub will be the first manga to end to usher in the four new manga starting up.

Any was glad that Furuichi is still powerful enough to make contracts simultaneously.

Satan is a bit less tall than I imagined.

Fairy Tail

That one half panel shot of the back of Erza...though the front shot of Natsu sitting there was amazing, stupid foot.

I was hoping Cana would have realized things this chapter instead of making it last into the next chapter, and with no Ultear, I guess Jellal may finally be a victim of bad writing :(
 
Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei v12 (Double Seven Chapter) (LN)

Stunning arc with various great things going on in this second year for the favorite. Shippou is my favorite of the new characters introduced along with Kento who I think needs to hang around become a Tatsuya no 2, the gleam in his eyes and how he admires him and such.

Stunning fights especially with Million Blades v Tomitsugu and then Tomitsugu v Tatsuya.

Also Batman Tatsuya was incredibly memorable.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Fairy Tail

So fanservice, then Gerard. Sounds like Fairy Tail.
 
I'm happy Orange is coming back next month: https://twitter.com/manganewsjapon/status/426737833038974976 if my google tl french is not mistaken, it'll be featured on the cover as well as having color pages.



Here's a (re?)post of the covers of the re-released volumes 1 and 2:



I rather liked what I read and I'm not really a huge fan of shoujo titles in general.

Man, there's a stark difference in tone between the first and second volume. D:

So shoujo.

Whoa shit, this is actually pretty sad. Suwa is the man.
He marries and even has a kid with her in the future, but is giving her up just so his friend won't commit suicide? Wow. If the future changes, I hope he gets something great in return. What a guy.

Kuroko no Basket 246

That halftime was shorter than I thought it was going to be. Hyuga and Kagami are now the ones to keep Seirin alive and Akashi already knows that.

Seems like we should expect more of Rakuzan beating on Seirin for a couple of chapters more.

If Seirin is suppose to win they should be showing a little more fight or something.

I sort have a feeling the manga author won't let Seirin win now. Maybe a way to prolong the story I guess.

Beach 411

So Goku is in the hyperbolic time chamber, Bulma is about to get wrecked by Cell and Mr. Satan just showed up to "save the day".

(i can't help it)

Then again, I was always a sucker for everything DBZ so that must be the reason I'm enjoying this so much, regardless of the feeling of just retelling. Has to be because Aizen is so broken and so fun to watch. Too bad he'll inevitably be brought down by Ichigo and the power of super sayain plot-powerups.

then again I could be wrong!

Bleach 420

Holy hell, black super sayain Ichigo is a bad aaassss

Bleach 423

Wait . . seriously? That's it? All that build for barely a chapter worth of content of . . YOU WIN! Yuck.

This is pretty much what I expected Yu Yu Hakusho and Bleach to be before both ended up being Shonen fighting series.

Considering everything else in the manga, I can't imagine this being taken anywhere near seriously.
 
Vertical picked up My Neighbor Seki (Tonari no Seki-kun) for english release in the Fall.

Vertical's Ed Chavez told ANN that the company has been working on the project for two and a half years. The company originally planned to release a collection of the best stories from the manga, but he said the property "took on a life of its own" in Japan in the last few years since Media Factory did additional marketing for the series. Chavez said Vertical will release a new volume in North America "every two months or so."
