Okay, you got me. You got me good. Tricking Mizuka was effectively like tricking the reader, and you certainly did that. Though the MC gave her free reign over a portion of the plan and she didn't need to send Neko to the cottage, so I choose to believe that there was still some immoral motive behind her actions.

Onto the next burning issue then, i.e. Kotori and that whole 'destroying all life on earth' thing.

I like how Tadokoro and Soma are constantly threatened with expulsion even though its pretty clear there's a shit load of fodder students (e.g. anyone who doesn't have a name)

There's more than enough named characters in both rounds than there are spots for them.

I mean sure, it probably won't be Tadokoro and Soma out first, but still you can't super obvious about this.

Not sure I follow; I'm just noting the fact that there's always of random groups of students making a big fucking stink about Tadokoro sucking, even though those characters are never apparently relevant at anything.

I'm mildly surprised you don't get blacklisted for that kind of prior work. Then again, Toriko is still around.

Easily one of the panels made me feel light headed, the distortion from the whole scene was too intense. Combining that with the whole talk about the chances of the effect even happening, almost made it nauseating. But it was still enjoyable.

Epic swordslashing skills.

There's a difference between drawing porn and picking up an underage prostitute.
Unless Shimabukuro drew porn...

Seems fine to me, even the average crowd at the school is above how Tadokoro's acting when she's under pressure (that's the whole point of when anyone says Tadokoro shows no promise, she really does perform worse than everyone). She also scored last before she met Soma, or something, if I remember right.

Unless you mean that any faceless crowd character is a terrible student, which isn't really fair to say. They're just a faceless crowd, it's in every manga that has a large community.

Edit: by the way there's more than one Jump artist who drew porn before. And in general, it happens in a lot of places (like KNIM). Why would he be blacklisted for it?

I just can't wait till Kishi trolls the shippers. He's going to leave Naruto's love life ambiguous as hell.

If he goes with NaruHina, well, it'll just be another day outside of tumblr declaring victory.

NaruSaku....oh BOY. Tumblr would be down for a month and the sheer tears of rage would be delicious.

These motherfuckers would be salty for years, just like those who shipped TaixSora in Digimon.

Second best chapter so far after the Tokisaka stage confession to Kamine in chp 2. Utebi being all fired up and then feeling it all once the instruments were changed made it memorable. Ill briefly miss him as we move to the next section, though with a tyrant trainer I hope it will feel different then Utebi.

Naruto's love life was never important or interesting. He has the hots for Sakura but his interest in here is completely shallow since she's a one-note character that hasn't had any development in years - I mean, she had a character arc there where she decided to go murder Sasuke, but it wasn't even character development - the underlying note to her character (loves Sasuke) wasn't even changed.

It would troll his fans but his fans are dumb for shipping uninteresting characters with each other.

I'm saying its just kind of funny how there's huge crowds of characters who have already been judged to be uninteresting or unskilled (they didn't even make it into the competition, or the judges don't seem to care about them much), but its Soma and Tadokoro constantly being threatened with expulsion.

I just found out crunchyroll does manga now.

If their translations are good and they get a wider selection this could be awesome!

So about par for the course for fandoms of any medium?

Whenever I think of shipping wars I tend to think about Harry Potter and none of those characters were uninteresting. Just one side of that argument was completely delusional.

Normally a new Yuyu chapter would be a thing to celebrate but knowing one of the groups doing this is dropping it is a bitter boobpill to swallow. :(

Most surprising development since that time page 7 came after page 6.

MC's father is going to remarry, and his new partner's daughter is pretending to be a boy for [reason]. Based on a VN which is a spinoff of Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate. Common sense dictates that I shouldn't read it, but that's never stopped me before.

I still don't believe Sasuke is genuinely coming back to the leaf village. Where's our naruto vs sasuke fight, junin exams, man I'm going to miss this series. This was my first manga/anime and I've been following every week for 7 years.

When they start fighting each other you'll know its the actual end. There's still quite a few storylines that need to be resolved to finish the plot. I can't imagine he can realistically complete them in a period of less than months, but anything's possible. I'm sure his editors aren't leaning on him to get it over with.

This is why I kind of hope it happens, despite my lack of give a fuck about romance in Naruto. The sheer amount of rage and salty tears of NaruHina fans would never, ever stop being utterly hilarious.

I think most people would be surprised to know that there are natives that believe homosexuality doesn't exist in Japan. I had to convince one already. Such a weird state of mind.

I'd rather have Hina win if someone does, but part of me wants to see NarutoForums implode and declare open war on Kishi if Sakura was endgame. The rage would be on par with the Shuffle! shippers.

Digimon was some straight BS though. Glad the later series made that a damn TV show after what they did with some of the cast post-time skip.
