Well there wasnt much else Enma could do, he had already drained all his powers holding the 6 Daemon Spades in place. Unless he calls forth magic from tomorrow, then there really wasnt anything else he could have done. I cant see it being annoying as the hyper duo had to team up in this arc, the least Enma could do for the trouble he caused Tsuna.

ive been posting from my phone because i wont be back home until next week. i dont have a problem with mocking anything, its defense that annoys me.Angry Grimace said:
as far as naruto goes, i never said it was a good manga, i said i read it because i started reading it over a decade ago and i never stop reading anything i start because its bad. only ones i ever stopped reading were veritas and claymore, and that was because i got confused. everyone in claymore looks the same.

Except he does it on purpose, usually praising chapters everyone else in the thread dislikes. At first it was just Bleach, but once people stopped paying attention to his Bleach posts, he started expanding to different popular mangas discussed in this thread. Fairy Tail, Bakuman, Hitman Reborn, etc..., and now Naruto.
The only manga that this doesn't seem to work with is One Piece because regardless of if he's extremely positive or negative about One Piece, his posts are going to mirror One Piece regulars in this thread.

So we are back equating OP fans to Oda cocksuckers?
Round and round we go.
Round and round we go.

Again, I'd argue nobody is extremely negative about OP, you just perceive it that way because you seem to take OP criticism personally.Kreed said:

If they're defending this hyper pointless fight between fishguy and Tom Sawyer, they've lost all capacity for rational thought.Infinite Justice said:
Hordie/Hoadie/Hody is planning to kill most of the population. Nobody's going to give a crap if Luffy kills him at this point. Should be easy enough for them to compromise and let Jimbei take him down anyway. (Assuming the whole point is to get him out of the way, who the hell cares who does it?)

I think you have me confused with someone else. Im not even current on Naruto and Bakuman. As I asked before sometime ago, is it truly odd to like a chapter that the most vocal posters dislike? As long as a the chapter has what I like then I praise the chapter, if not then I dont praise. Really, Im not into all that complexity and literary excellence and analysis and etc that most people discuss for pages...simple, flashy, friendship, high action = win chapter, thats all I read manga for.

Indeed. Extreme pigeonholing sometimes ITT.
The problem with the Oda/One Piece worshippers is not that they thoroughly enjoy what they're reading. Theres nothing I can take away from that, more power to enjoying what you like. The real problem is that those folks seem to think anyone who doesn't see OP in the same light is either reading it wrong or just has personal problems. Fuck off.

Not everyone is going to like OP or every arc and nothing is wrong with that .
The problem is what you said but also when some people feel they need to tell OP fans how to enjoy it or they should not be hype or some other stupid thing.
This has been going on for years now lol .

Zetman~50
Been reading this here and there and I'm liking the twistedness of it. After seeing some complaints other places about the switch to Kouga I wasn't looking forward to it, but I actually like it more than zets chapters. I like that dude is basically just screwing with Kouga's view of justice.
Late on most this past weeks chapters but...
TWGOK
I actually like Shiori, but didn't really like the latest chapter. Just fealt like a chore to read for some reason. Hopefully with Kaima sitting with her it turns into a bunch of awkward funny questions, if she can spit them out.
Bleach
Thought it was a funny and pretty good chapter. Thinking Ichigo and Ginjou may have to turn to Isshan, Urahara, and the mystery shinigami.
One Piece
Liked the reveal of the new powers for Brooke and Robin. The comedy was pretty good, but besides that it seemed like it was just delaying actually doing something. Does Brooke and Robin gaining new aspects of their DF power hint at Luffy gaining something besides a new gear or just Haki? I'm hoping for some talk of the poneglyph in the next chapter now that Robin is with the group but I doubt it.
I would agree with this. The only thing I wouldn't agree with this is when someone says maybe it's better to marathon through instead of week by week(isn't this what started this OP talk?). I see this suggestion for the big 3 a decent amount. But it seems like when this is said about OP it get's labeled as being dick riding and blaming the reader for not liking it. Unless I'm completely missunderstanding the argument, then just ignore me. Just contributing my two cents.

Way to give that presumably years old post a ton of context. In fact, using Google, I discovered that post is approximately 730 days old. Bravo.Kreed said:

Reborn
OMG Spade survived!/sarcasm. I am a little suprised that the confrontation is still going, however. I thought he'd disappear for a while and release everyone to fool them into thinking he was dead. Maybe even jump into another body but didn't think he'd straight up take the attack and continue attacking. I guess it's not a bad idea if you can see all the fighters lying on the ground, exhausted. Unfortunately for Spade, he's about to get owned by plot armor. Family Gangsta ring combination hooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! It's time for TsunEnma Voltron Bitches! Would be funny if Tsuna keeps Enma's ring afterwards to keep the ability/transformation. Sorry Enma, you get to retire.
One Piece Discussion
Sorry, but when you start telling posters that maybe OP isn't for them because they are not enjoying the current arc when they've largely enjoyed the 600+ chapters in the series or are inferring that we have ADD because we don't love EVERY SINGLE chapter, you swallow Oda's gravy. You swallow it with a large grin. I have never seen such rose tinted glasses before. At least 99 percent of the people ragging on the arc LIKE One Piece, including myself. Some of us enjoy it a lot, I've recommended it to multiple friends referring it as one of the better quality and more consistent on-going shonens. We are being honest about the current arcs. You don't have to agree with us, all the power to you if you can enjoy this garbage arc, but to suggest we have medical conditions because we don't enjoy a manga arc? WTF is wrong with some of you? These are the comments that have some of us calling you Oda pole riders. If you just like something I don't, no issue but if you make comments that we can't handle plot build up or slow, consitent development and can only read action due to ADD...Yeahhhh hope it tastes like strawberry.

I've never heard of The Legend of Koizumi. But those pics have forced me to find and read it.
Nah, I agree with you fully here. These recommendations are fine, I actually think that reading in chunks is generally better for manga, and it makes it more enjoyable. My sister was catching up with bleach and I ended up re-reading it with her. Specifically, the start of this latest bleach arc was a lot more enjoyable in a big chunk as opposed to the snore fest it was week by week when it started.RepairmanJack said:
I also marathoned OP actually, I can only imagine it was a lot better than it would have been for me.
Angry Grimace said:
I only brought that post up because that seems to be your main context for accusing me being a "Oda worshipper". I (and others) criticized you for making random posts like that years ago not because they were negative opinions, but because at the time either you weren't actually reading One Piece or you weren't discussing it like you were Naruto and Bleach, which IMO was bullshit because if you're going to criticize the series/criticize people for liking the series as often as you were the least you could do was read it/discuss it just as regularly.
And because I called you out on those posts you seem to have, in Infinite Justice words, pigeon holed me as an "Oda boot licker", all while completely ignoring the annoying, long, multi-paged arguments I've had with One Piece fans over the course of the three manga threads because of negative comments I've made (off the top of my head) about women characters, Ace's tattoo retcon, Haki's retcon, Skypiea, Pell's death, One Piece not being great until the Water 7 arc, Sanji and Nami being the most useless characters, the length of Impel Down and the War, the handling of Impel Down in general, the Amazon Lily fight, Boa Hancock, One Piece "crew member shippers", and (more recently in the Fishman Island Arc) Arlong, "misunderstandings", and Hodi.
If you want to call me a Full Metal Alchemist, Beelzebub, Sanctuary, GTO, Gintama, Lucifer and Biscuit Hammer "jock rider", go right ahead, there are plenty of posts in this thread to back that claim up. But you can "fuck off" in regards to me not criticizing Oda/One Piece.

That's what I was wondering. Out of curiosity cause I marathon everything so quick I end up forgetting tons of details.
I don't remember if I posted a comment about the first volume of Georgie (it's good), but I've read volume 2 today and that was even better than the first volume. Compared to the anime (which I watched when I was a kid) there is no competition, manga is 20x better. The pacing is fast, everything moves along quickly and it feels much better. Catherine is even more funny/cute.
Classic shojo, yet it still looks really pretty today, especially the color pages.
I'm still surprised that my edition is 4 volumes and not 5.

Good news for anyone who was waiting for Kannagi to start back up again:
Kannagi Manga to Return on July 27 in Japan
Though it seems that Eri Takenashi isn't in full health yet, so the schedule will be irregular after the first few months.

I have no idea who you think you're kidding. You're literally the origin of the Oda Worshipper stereotype.Kreed said:
And you can just save that whole Ignis Defense (i.e. the one he used on Freshmaker where he insisted that nobody that reads Bleach is allowed to criticize One Piece). It made Ignis look stupid then and isn't going to make sense now.

You can't honestly tell me you think that was a good argument. I'm not going to say Freshmaker came off any better than you did back then, but it was pretty entertaining watching that fight (at first.)Ignis Fatuus said:

Sorry new guy, but you had to be there. Ignis was a lot more aggressive back then, although he still hates Bleach (which is at least understandable since it sucks 99% of the time)upandaway said:

I dont know, the text at the end of last chapter with "climax" kind of ruined the surprise that it would still go on and that Daemon would be a bit around longer. Oh well, wonder if this means Enma's powers were just given up.
*its kind of odd comparing mangareaders and mangastreams version and the one that is heavy on the expletives and the one that lacks it.
One Piece:
Misuse of words, what I meant was in regards to Shanks using "Haki" back in the first few chapters of One Piece and Oda planning that.
I don't have to "kid anyone". You know how easily I looked up your old post? I can do the same with all of those arguments I listed in all three fucking threads. Hell, one of those arguments was actually with Ignis. So again, fuck off Grimmace, you and your "selective memory" are the only things kidding around here.

I'm not going to get into an argument about what you said in a thread that's been archived for several years on a forum that has no search function. But enough of us are still here to remember it.

The only time I remember Haki being "retconned" was when Whitebeard stabbed Aokiji through the chest, but an explanation that Aokiji opened a hole before Whitebeard stabbed would make sense in that regard.
Kreed said:
That's the beauty with what Oda's done with One Piece, he makes such things so vague, that he can paint it whatever the hell he wants later, rather than be pidgeon holed into something it has to be.
