Bleach

Ukitake seems to be the forth war potential.

 

[Zweizer]

CTRL + T by Inio Asano

Gosh, I love Asano's art. The short stories were great as well, if melancholic, in contrast to the rather offbeat gag comics.

 

[Usobuko]

Kitto Kawaii Onnanoko Dakara Chapter 3

I can't decide if this series targeted audience is boys or girls. Maybe both.

 

[Zweizer]

One Piece ch776

Pretty nice display of powers.

 

[Revo]

One Piece 776

Woo, focused chapter.

 

[Zweizer]

Taiyou no Ie ch50 (End)

That moment with Hina was pretty sweet, though I still wish she got more screentime. Nice ending overall, with lots of heart-melting scenes. Here's hoping for some extras that'll show how the secondary characters are doing.

 

[Revo]

Bleach 615

Woo Orihime is useless!

 

[LeleSocho]

Did Asano ever made some lighthearted and non-psychological work?
I love his art but i can't stand the themes.

 

[Zweizer]

Kyou Kara Yonshimai ch11-13

Feelings are a complicated thing.

 

[Turok_TTZ]

Oyasumi Punpun 1

...is it bad that I feel almost nothing? I'm actually very slightly amused.

Ozanari-kun seems to be a comedy focused but that's not available in Eng.

Oyasumi Punpun 1

You should know by now MangaGAF are sensitive folks that tend to over react. It's actually a light-hearted series with plenty of cute moments like this.

Oyasumi Punpun 1

...is it bad that I feel almost nothing? I'm actually very slightly amused.

LIke Usobuko said, it's a totally innocent story. Read on~

Maybe Ozanari-kun but that's not available in Eng. Seems to be a comedy.

If CTRL+T is any indication, it's wacky comedy, but the artstyle is like how Punpun is drawn for the whole thing.

Well, I forgot about Dead Dead Demon's Dededededestruction. This is Asano own words in that interview so the tone and atmosphere is unlikely to change in future.

Reality is tough, so read this manga about cute girls and feel better. I realized how important that is after watching K-On! (laugh) Girls having fun is cute, and cute is something that needs no explanation — that’s what’s so great about it. That’s all I need, I’ve decided.

 

[Turok_TTZ]

5 chapters in. punpun remains amusing.

 

[PhillipCostigan]

Fuuka.

drama cmon...

Goodnight Punpun is what's in nowadays. Read it~

you ain't getting me with that shit

Shoukoku no Altair

that's not a fluffy romance

Heh I forgot about your preferences.

Bleach 615
Nothing happened.

pg 1~3: An Earthquake
pg 4~7: Yes you did kill the Soul King
pg 9~10: I'll fight you!
pg 11~14: Yes Soul King is dead
pg 15~16: Orihime is useless
pg 17: Ukitake will do something next chapter

 

[PhillipCostigan]

Cat street.

hrm. is this super slowjo or is it bearable, good shoujo?

Heh I forgot about your preferences.

Bonnouji

that was like the first manga I read through to completion. oh how time flies

 

[Zweizer]

you ain't getting me with that shit

But everyone's reading it!

LOVE/DEATH and Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san are both pretty cute and fun.

Don't you know? Bleach is "itsfuckingnothing.gif" in manga form with tacked on fanservice.

I'll look at both of these, thanks!

It just needs to be condensed.

The first eight pages could be condensed into two. For the first page have the girls noticing the earthquake in the top panel with the middle section having the chapter subtitle and the bottom section with a short explanation from Bach as Ichigo get's ready to charge. Then the second page with a badass huge panel featuring Ichigo attacking.

Bam! 6 wasted pages gone. As Ichigo charged on the second page he could do a cool double spread instead with Ichigo attacking Bach in the middle with the captains noticing with surprised faces that the Soul King is dead around them at the edges of the pages giving some added tension to what Ichigo is doing and making it feel more connected.

After that combine page 10 and 13 with some added things from other characters or the expand on what's going on in the human world with Ichigo's friends. That would cut the manga from 14 pages to 4.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

While there wasn't really a single bad new character introduced in this training arc.

If there's one character who shined more than any other, it was Bokuto.

Can't wait for when he appears again.




It's not surprising Japan's bad taste strike again in the Tales series.

Besides voting for Yuri anyway.

Same, Im glad Bokuto and Akashi are so popular even if they had such little amounts of time. Cant wait to see their anime designs.

but why would kubo do that? why not just drag a corpse and continue beating it till one is either A:satisfied or B:can't beat on anymore.

I don't think kubo is in any rush.

LOVE/DEATH 1

alright this is hella dumb, I can get down with this

LOVE/DEATH 2

YUP SO DOWN WITH THIS

LOVE/DEATH 3

 

[Dedication Through Light]

What's with the sudden flood of Assassination Classroom chapters? Are we that far behind?

Weve always been behind, wonder if they will keep it up or fizzle out like the other speed folks attempted.

If only I didnt suffer loyalty to the first ones.

Was hoping viz would add it in our jump.

 

[elyetis]

hrm. is this super slowjo or is it bearable, good shoujo?

I genuinely liked it even thought I don't like most shojo, now I wouldn't go as far as to say that everyone should like it. Some element specifically resonated well with me.

ARE YOU A FAMOUS CHILD ACTOR!?

 

[Dedication Through Light]

So glad Calm from A/Z will be the prince of smoke in the food wars anime. love his voice, if he can keep it please. (Taishi Murata as Shun Ibusaki)

Hero Mask 5

A BEAM?!!!

 

[AlimNassor]

Bleach: How could nothing have happened? You people say nothing happened no matter what happens. Yhwach killing the Soul king? Nothing happened. Yhwahc defeating the Royal Guard? nothing happened. Yes the pacing is slow but, how could nothing have happened when the chapter flat out showed SS and Human World crumbling and Orihime being useless?

Sometimes I think you people purposely troll bleach. Nothing will ever please any of your high standards.

 

[Zweizer]

LOVE/DEATH 1

alright this is hella dumb, I can get down with this

LOVE/DEATH 2

YUP SO DOWN WITH THIS

LOVE/DEATH 3

Too bad there's only a couple of chapters available.

You might like Solanin as well. Although it's not very light-hearted, it's not overly dramatic either, and is a nice story that feels really human.

I wonder if Ukitake will sacrifice himself in someway

One Piece 776

Finally another fight is over soon we will get back to Luffy

you gotta be kidding me why would you end the chapter when things were getting serious

 

[PhillipCostigan]

Kekkon Yubiwa Monogatari 8

I cannot muster enthusiasm for this anymore. This isn't a patch on Tasogare in terms of quality

Maybe why have you forsaken us with this shit. a big boobed princess is not enough

 

[elyetis]

ARE YOU A FAMOUS CHILD ACTOR!?

I AM !!! not.

More about the kind of characters it is centered around, and the timing at which I read it for the first time.

Still no ichigo vs the almighty.
no uryuu.

orihime is fanservice, not one to move current plot forward.


also...

13 chapters later of punpun...
For some reason i am reminded of paranoia agent and i dont know why... amusing all the same.

Why is Orihime useless anyway? Didn't her power work by manipulating time itself?

 

[Quixzlizx]

Should I read Taiyou no Ie?

 

[PhillipCostigan]

Should I read Taiyou no Ie?

YES

just reading the latest 2 chapters now

great shoujo

 

[Quixzlizx]

YES

I'm not interested in trashy shoujo, but I generally like the good ones, so I guess I'll trust you.

Katsute Kami Datta Kemono-tachi e is better but has no romance (so far). I sincerely hope Maybe can do something nearly as good as Tasogare again.

Should I read Taiyou no Ie?

Yeah it's a pretty good shojo, even if it can feel sluggish at times.

Wait a new chapter?! Why do I have to be teaching right now
