This is the thread to discuss manga and manga related things.... (PART III)

Simple rules to follow so we can discuss our favorite mangas easily:

In bold, put the name of the series. Then you can go ahead and discuss whatever is on your mind without tags, okay? Make sure there is a space between the bolded name of the series and your text. Here's an example:

Hunter X Hunter

It rules and I don't know why!

Okay. Again, another warning. We will discuss all the mangas in one topic with no tags. If you don't want to be spoiled by the chapter as soon as the translation is out, do not come in here. Also, since we are not talking about the anime, you can mention new episodes without tags either since they are always behind or are filler. You should know well enough not to come in here not wanting to be spoiled but bolding the header should help out even more.

Again, No Spoiler marks needed, that is the benefit of coming here.​

start this off right:

i need one piece now!! i'm suffering withdrawals.

Corrected.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Another week, another Bleach chapter delay, guess I will continue to be amazed at the fact that the animators captured the essence of the downfall of Aizen excellently, truly epic. Too bad Viz wont even get to the chapters until like 4 years from now, so I cant even reread it.

Judging from the spoilers, I'd say a rather big flashback has already been set-up.
Not sure if I like that, I'd rather see more Strawhat shenenigans right now. But oh well, we all knew it was coming.

Still looking forward to how this arc will turn out

One Piece is going into another flashback?! What, completely unnecessary?

Not yet, but it's clearly set up I think. And it is not all that surprising, considering that every big arc had some flashback chapters.

 

[Zeppu]

Big three in first three replies. Niiiice!

 

[Infinite Justice]

new thread? cool

will check out the big 3 when available.

 

[Kreed]

Big three in first three replies. Niiiice!

smh, we need a new Full Metal Alchemist.

 

[octopusman]

I wish we could get a flashier thread title.

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

Oh it's that time again?

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

smh, we need a new Full Metal Alchemist.

Yes. Yes we do.

 

[Vox-Pop]

the manga thread hasn't been the same since the original thread was locked.

 

[Steroyd]

Ah, if only the Post New Thread button didn't instill so much fear into me.

smh, we need a new Full Metal Alchemist.

To be fair the big 3 would generally get discussed at around this time anyway.

TWGOK and Beelzebub have already been released, and Fairy Tail is over the weekend.

 

[Shanadeus]

The big three sure are taking their time.

 

[Entropia]

The big three sure are taking their time.

There was a snow storm in Japan or something that caused the delays.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

Delayed for some reason, I hope they're not delayed too much.

 

[Dresden]

Medaka Box is the best thing running in SJ anyways.

Medaka Box 83:

TROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL

TRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL

TROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLL

Glorious.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

smh, we need a new Full Metal Alchemist.

Ive been hoping they would do like Code Geass and give it a retelling (last I checked Geass had three different ones). Though I cant imagine which element of FMA to remove.

 

[Wiseblade]

Oh yeah, OT3 baby!

 

[Shouta]

So I've caught up with Naruto and I swear it's moving at a snail's pace, needs more fighting and less talking. Then again, I'm used to reading everything through tankoubans so reading individual chapters is killer. That aside, the flitering/editing on most manga I see online hurts my eyes soooo much when reading for too long.

 

[Steroyd]

Oh now a mod pops up.

In terms of plot advancement I'd agree and say Naruto is moving at a snails pace, but it's not moving too slow going from fight to fight of people I don't really care about.

It's a conflicting feeling I've got watching this arc, while I've been yearning for variety outside of Naruto's Kage Bunshin rasengan spamming, this war isn't doing it for me either. :|

 

[Shouta]

I don't mind this Ninja war, I just wish he'd let us see the characters that were supposed to care about fighting rather than these random schmucks.

 

[tsurugi no mai]

I don't mind this Ninja war, I just wish he'd let us see the characters that were supposed to care about fighting rather than these random schmucks.

I'm sure we'll get there eventually. The different major character match-ups will probably be coming up soon.

Yes, especially with fights like the current one. I have no idea who THE FUCK these guys are. At least the last ones had some recognizable faces in there, but this one? It's some cloud(?) ninja vs some suppossedly legendary ninja brother duo we never heard of before but who even fought the Kyuubi...

 

[cntr]

Thread three already? Nice.

 

[Urban Scholar]

First page of new thread, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is the business and you'll become a better human being for reading it.

 

[LOZLINK]

This sucks, nothing new is out.

 

[Lafiel]

Still need to get caught up on one piece..

 

[MrSerrels]

I agree about the Ninja War. Finding it frustrating, but I recognise the bigger picture. Hopefully this is a build towards something awesome.

 

[Apath]

I just wished they would use characters we care about in situations that were not so lolwtf boring.

 

[lordfroakie]

I should start reading One Piece again. Good thing I keep my Shonen Jump issues...

 

[Scum]

I...just...I don't know...

 

[smurfx]

speak for yourself. i want to know how fisher tiger died and how everything has gone down at fishman island. don't want the flashback right now but i want it at some point. anyways i'm hoping luffy finds jimbei and we get to know why he doesn't want luffy to fight hodi. if its because hodi is very powerful and beat jimbei then jimbei is definitely joining the strawhats since luffy will end up defeating hodi and jimbei won't be more powerful than luffy anymore.

I think its just too soon for more flashback, we havent even had a high climax moment since the Luffy x Ace x Sabo flashback incident. Its supposed to be a series of over the top high climax action, but its focusing too much on creating the largest cast of characters for a single series. Though I do wanna seen Jimbei!

And you rated Naruto and Bleach above One Piece because...

Wow I cant believe I really racked up all those posts and still remain in the top 20 after conceding the "race"

 

[exarkun]

What? A new thread? Is it cause the other one was too big?

Also, I hear hunter x hunter might come back eventually. Soonish. Maybe.

hey i'm only in the hundreds so i'm still sorta normal. lol

 

[Dedication Through Light]

And you rated Naruto and Bleach above One Piece because...

Naruto always delivered the action, it was bam, Naruto v Pain, bam, Sasuke v Kages, bam, Sasuke v Danzo, bam, Kisame v Bee, bam, Naruto v 9 tails, well thats where Im at. Whats happened in One Piece in the same time frame....Luffy crying, flashback, barely any fighting on the way to fishman isles, barely anything on the isles...In Bleach, there is just non stop high climax action too. I just want action in my One Piece.

I still think it is not a strength thing but something that has to do with the whole fishman/human dilemma, maybe even with the fall of Arlong.

And i still think Jenbe is stronger than a lot of people think.

I am not saying we will get a flashback right now, just that it is apparent from the chapter what it will be about and that it will come sometime this year (my guess).

Also, I hear hunter x hunter might come back eventually. Soonish. Maybe.

Where did you hear that. I really, really hope it does come back soon.

Spoiler

for like two months

As much as I think OP is overrated, OP has been awesome these past weeks
