Okay, no, what, wait a damn second. What the hell?

The Kudan predicts something.
Says a dude will destroy the country.
The prediction is absolute.

And then the people try and prevent it?

Don't they understand the fucking concept of an absolute prophecy or what?
 
More shounens should follow Gamaran's example of doing training arcs.

"We will do training for one year to defeat you guys!"

The next page,

"And then one year has passed in the blink of an eye."

The next page,

Kickass action.
 
So guys is The Breaker any good? My friend keeps telling me to read it, but the last Korean manga he recommended to me was Veritas and that turned to shit pretty quickly.

One of the best around. The Breaker NW hasn't really found itself yet but the original is great.

I really, really like the entire "body parts -> different youkai" deal. Bones looks badass. Mouth looks sick in the head.

This was a good idea.

You guys (the ones saying "STOP TALKING TO DTL!!!!!") take DTL too seriously. If people are going to respond to him, so the fuck what?
None of the cool kids here take him too seriously, but it gets annoying when others do it. He got banned on the gaming side for this crap.

Thankfully the gaming side mods won't put up with he's shit over there.
 
brotkasten said:
Nope, his last ban was In the Ocarina of Time 3DS thread, iirc. Guess why.
He's been banned a few times, all of them related to trolling people in various ways with different degrees of subtlety.

I posit that the only reason he's allowed to run rampant in this thread is because he's so obvious about it that we have only ourselves to blame if we fall for it.
 
Fairy Tail

I know most everyone else has commented on how stupid this chapter was, but yeah... it was pretty stupid. First, indeed, by having all of the major characters be the same exact age that they were before the timeskip, it kind of wastes the point of a timeskip. Second, given that this is Mashima I know that there was no question that they would be coming back, but seriously, it could have been done better than this, and yeah, they came back too fast. It's not exactly suspenseful when the entire original cast returns after just two or three chapters away... was there much point in introducing those new characters when they're now pretty much irrelevant again?

Fairy Tail

She converted Faith and Bonds™ into magical power. Alright.

It's the Absolute Defensive Magic™. Yes, I understand.

But how the hell is she even there to begin with? "Ethereal Body" my ass. Screw this.

funny how THAT'S what bugs me out of those 3
Yeah, that is a good question, and I was wondering too -- how was she there? I assume she had died already, right? Unless she had been alive and on the island but in hiding or something, and then sacrificed herself to save them? I don't know, I don't quite understand that part.

That still doesn't mean people need to flip out at anyone who quotes his "normal" (i.e. actual discussion-oriented) posts. That's not nice of you guys. I didn't need 3 different people go at me for replying to what doesn't seem to be a post of any trolling substance at all, grounded in discussion.

If anything, that kind of thing is harming discussion just as much as when people reply to his "baiting posts".

Yes, you guys hurt my feelings :( uwaah.
 
The Breaker

Not related to the manga, but more to the translation. I really hate it when they leave shit untranslated and then write what it means between the panels. That's just lazy and defeats the whole purpose. Like right now there is the word "saeki" and then there is a note that says it's hard to translate, but it means "asshole", "punk" or "bastard".

Well then why the fuck didn't you guys translate that?

/rant

Just according to...

They did say it was hard to translate though. ;)

Sorry, but that is false.

Only been banned twice, one was the "lol" in 2010, and the other was for the lack of spoiler tagging an FMA spoiler in the anime thread two months ago. Ive had no other administrative action beyond these two offenses.

Then I'm sorry. I dont want to spread false information about others. I guess I was just hoping it was for that.

It now occurs to me that although Ayumi is clearly the superior girl, Chihiro has the best chemistry with Keima out of any of them.

I will now root for the Chihiro ending.
 
Big One said:
Yeah the OoT thread was pretty bad, I mean seriously you didn't know Sheik was Zelda? lol

That wasn't the worst part.

How about wanting auto regen hearts and pop inspired music in Zelda games? Or how fucking hard OOT is that it gave him tears since he died so many times?

Sorry but that is also false. Ive never had action taken due to subtly trolling people. I do not see where this rumor and speculation is even coming from. The only thing people have themselves to blame is for trying to paint me in some negative picture considering everything I post is essentially sincere and usually echoed in someway by others, common fandom thought, and logical. Sure Im somewhat pro biased to naruto, fairy tail, and bleach, but that shouldnt be considering subtly trolling people.

If it's chemistry you want, what about Haqua?
 
At this rate, I'll get married and have kids before Guts and crew get to Elves Island or whatever.

Okay, guys, what we are doing right is now giving him exactly what he wants. This has become the DTL Discussion/News Thread |OT4| all over again and he's probably doing cartwheels.


upandaway said:

That's a really uninteresting relationship in my opinion, mainly because it doesn't even take itself seriously. It's mostly played for laughs. Haqua is just comically tsundere and Keima is oblivious.

With Chihiro you can see a real spark between the two which is not even really an act on Keima's part if you go back and look at his original arc. Chihiro was the only one able to get under Keima's skin, and that was before she became a target.
 
The Breaker 3

That has to be the worst teacher ever. A girl tells you some kid is being picked on and gets beaten up, and you fucking call him out during class? And ask him who is beating him up? And then you want them to apologize just like that?

I just killed shitload of brain cells reading that chapter.

Hey guys, let's talk about how awesome the CP9 Saga in One Piece is. Anything. Please.
Third best arc in One Piece.

Third best.lulz.
You poor pathetic creature.

After not reading it for a month I can't go back to it. The funny is just not there anymore and it feels rather ridiculous and annoying.

Hahahah sorry. But I am just rather... surprised, that anyone could possibly think that they could mask their trolling attempts by using such ridiculous "opinions."

In any event, can you guys recommend me a good completed manga to read? Preferably shounen but anything will do.

789shadow said:
I'm talking sagas. Not arcs. And even then only Marineford could claim to be better.
Yeah I'm not used to referring to One Piece by sagas.

But going by sagas then it's Whitebeard War > CP9 > Baroque Works

As opposed to the best teacher.

DTL is at least 19, I remember him saying this somewhere.

The Lucifer and Biscuit Hammer (technically seinen but it's got that shounen feel)

Who is this?
Ah, my fault. Yokoshima Naruko from Seitokai Yakuindomo.

In a totally objective way she is attractive, perverted, and makes advances toward her male students. She is also voiced by Kobayashi Yuu in the anime.

I think the only way I will finish Lucifer BH is if someone puts a gun to my head. I've stalled 4 times already.

I don't have a gun, will a swiss army knife do?
