"You want to kill me? You couldn't even kill my boredom."
Zoro is so awesome.

So uhh.. could someone give me cliff notes on what happened with Naruto? I don't read it.

An already dead Kage summoned an already dead Uchiha who was supposed to still be walking aroung sucking people through his eye.

I haven't even read the chapter yet and I can tell you:

-Madara is not Madara.
-Naruto is god, like his dad was.
-RealMadara is Madara.
 
One Piece

Zoro's a badass, other than that....meh. First time in a while I actually thought one piece was the weakest of the big three.

Now bring on HxH.
 
Hinata: Hey Naruto, you know when I said I love you a while back? You still haven't gotten back to me on that one.
Naruto: You're strong!
Hinata: Okay...
 
Naruto
Fake Madara is actually the younger brother who supposedly died/was killed. It is so obvious.

Bleach
Shitty chapter. Byakuya will still crush the kid.

Sanji trolling that giant was great.

Naruto

Holy shit, I totally saw that coming yet I'm still genuinely surprised

I'll say Tobi is a white Zetsu clone of Madara who has gone off the deep end into believing he is actually Madara
 
Averon said:
The first was Tensei'd by Orochimaru already. Can't be him. The bigger question is how does Madara know Nagato?
I guess that's true. He just uses so much of the first hokages shit though ;,;

One Piece

Was boring. Hody is probably a kuma-style cyborg.
Why would Hody be a cyborg? He is just a drugs junkie that keeps taking these pills.

He will probably get crippled or die by them at the end.
 
Naruto

Wait since when did Kakashi get Zabuza's sword?

WE NOW HAVE A NARUTO FOR ALL THE SQUADS

Madara's reveal is also abysmal but I've already covered that earlier.

Bleach

You can't be fucking serious... I mean was it REALLY necessary for him to teleport behind him? Stop it, Kubo.

One Piece

Color spread is awesome as usual. The clothes on Robin makes me warm up to her redesign a lot more than I have. It also boss to see her wear sunglasses in battle.

Big Three chapters this week wasn't very interesting. Hopefully new HxH makes up for it with Hisoka trolling.
 
One Piece

Fights were fun, Franky's "inventions" are still amusing, Sanji trolling was great, and Zoro was badass.

Bleach

Well that was an interesting use for Tsukishima's ability.

Naruto

So...are we back to Tobi=Obito theories now?

Big One said:

Since he killed him again.
 
Hunter x Hunter

Got a summary here, prepare to be spoiled as fuck:

Most of the chapter is Ging talking about why he did what he did and how he conspired with Beans a couple days beforehand.
EVERY Hunter that's appeared so far in the series appears in this chapter. That includes the judges from the first arc, Hanzou, Hisoka, Illumi and a lot of other people we haven't seen in a million years. Hisoka gives everyone "points" in his mind, based on how good he thinks they are. Leorio and Kurapika aren't shown.
According to Illumi, Killua appealed to the Zoldyck family's father. And he says if nothing is done, both Gon and Killua will die.
Illumi tells Hisoka of the news that's been happening while Hisoka has been "playing tag" with Chrollo. Though he doesn't say anything else about that.
Illumi says he wants very much to avoid that happening, and that he wants to kill the 5th Zoldyck brother (Alluka, though his name isn't mentioned.)
Pariston wins the election by a large margin, but because some of the other rules aren't fullfilled, too many voted becoming invalid, a reelection has to be held.
There are a lot of names, also mentioned. Including the entire results of who was voted for.
Included in the people who didn't vote: Gon, Shoot, Kurapika, Killua, Shalnark "And 28 others".
 
One Piece

Lol franky is so goddamn awesome. His mecha mode is hilarious because he keeps doing everything himself. You can tell he built it just because it'd be cool to have a mecha.

It's probably something dumb like Izuna's evil spirit is inhabiting Obito's body and trying to resurrect Madara so they can be evil overlord brothers

Hody won't die. Him living won't impede the plot, so he'll survive (or at least, he won't die onscreen).
 
Bleach

Facebook showing he's Troll of the year and Kubo never stopping with those "i'm right behind you panels" LOL


Naruto

The cat's finally out of the bag huh?

all those people who believed the current Madara wasn't the real deal seems to be finally vindicated.

Now the "My Power, Uchiha Madara's Power" line seems to be cleared up now.


One piece

Zoro: Boss of Bosses and Sanji with DAT TROLLING.
 
One Piece

Solid chapter as usual. Sanji trolling Puffer Fish was hilarious and Franky is just great with the mech. I also liked Chopper's little line about friendship. It was nice. I'm disappointed that it wasn't a continuation of last week's Hody plotline. All we got was a reference by Hatchan. What is that fucker made of? I want to know!

Bleach

I still don't understand Tsukushima's abilities. I just want him to die already. In terms of villains, he's probably the best villain Bleach has ever had because I hate him the most. He's too damn arrogant. He never changes facial expressions either.

Naruto

That twist was pretty great. I only recently gave in to the theory that masked dude was Madara all along. For a time I thought it was someone else but Kishi made it seem like he really was Madara, so I gave in. The twist genuinely surprised me. Now he has to deliver on the identity of this guy. It shouldn't be Obito either. That guy was crushed by a boulder and I'm pretty sure his friends, who were there upon his death, dug him out and properly buried the guy.

I have no theories on who he is, but as a reader, I would be disappointed if it turned out to be Obito.
 
One Piece 642:

Jinbe: "Ai Yo Robin. Since Oda didn't give you and that other chick shit to do and you're just wasting panel space, how about you go make me a sandwich?"

Robin: "White or Whole Wheat?"
 
lol wut at Naruto.

I'm hoping it'll be something genuinely awesome like someone else was masquerading as Madara all along instead of something lame like Tobi really is Madara but put into Obito's body or something stupid.

Im sorry but Im confused as to how so many people saw that reveal coming in Naruto. Where were the hints to even suggest it?
When Kabuto first confronted Madara and wanted to join Akatsuki. Madara wanted to attack until he saw what´s inside the coffin. It must have been Madara´s real body.
 
So Naruto major questions that are up in the air:

1. Who is Tobi really?
2. How does a long dead Madara know Nagato (rinnegan guy) who's only in his thirties
3. Madara has no previous knowledge of the impure world ressurection ability, other than what he's heard. (This implies it's never been used before at least on him)

I don't see how that was a hint. Madara's "You madman?!" comment suggested more that Kabuto had summoned something ridiculous like Rikudo. I don't know, I would have expected Tobi to react a bit differently than that to seeing the real Madara.

I think Nagato is about 40 at least, as he was older than Minato who would be 40ish

To be fair Kabuto also said "Hi tobi, oh wait you go by madara these days huh?" and "relax I haven't told a soul." Suggesting that whatever was in the coffin had a strong connection to madara and would be compromising for madara if someone else found out.

Madara would be shocked at Madara's own body in a coffin? If Kabuto has this trump card then why would he have, if I recall, even referred to Madara as Madara knowing Madara was dead? I was thinking the body would be some lost lover of Madara, a son, or something more riveting, the first sage?

I haven't read Naruto since the Pain arc ended and I saw this Madara thing coming. Kishimoto has been (arguably) hinting at this since Kakashi's back story arc. But even if you didn't get all the hints, Madara is a man who wears a mask and no one's seen his full face. Yet he keeps telling everyone he's Uchiha Madara and most of the ninjas in Naruto know/remember what Uchiha Madara looks like. But since he kept wearing the mask that meant one of two things:

1) He's ugly/physically deformed

and/or

2) He has a secret identity

No it's either

1. Madara was shocked that Kabuto was able to bring his body back to life

-or-

2. Tobi isn't Madara and was shocked that the real Madara was brought back to life
 
For some weird reason, I always think of Yamato when I read Kabuto. I'm stuck there for a second thinking "When did he do that?" before I realise my mistake. :/
