The Wii U Forums Manga Discussion thread

I made this thread rather than posting in the Anime thread because I felt that having one thread for everything anime and manga would be too messy and complicated. I also made this because I regularly check up on the weekly Shonen Jump chapter releases (in particular, the "Big Three"). This thread will be riddled with spoilers, so I advise that you be careful when reading through this thread.

Now before I allow posts, I need to lay some ground rules to keep this thread in order:
  • When commenting on a chapter, be sure to specify what manga you're refering to in bold to avoid confusing anyone
  • While discussion of manga is what this thread is about, this is not the thread to ask for scans and the like. Don't post links that shouldn't be here

With that all down, I'll move on to today's Big Three release:

Bleach 480 - So it seems this is the final Bleach arc. I don't really have much to say about this chapter since not a lot really happened. The chapter was a lot like that one chapter where Shuhei Hisagi and some shinigami freshmen were attacked by those massive hollows. Um, hopefully the girl there isn't dead because it looks like she's dead.

Naruto 573 - Tobi appears to be tense, but he can't admit it. Anyway, not much happened. Though Sasuke appears at the end, so I guess we should expect Naruto and Sasuke to have their ultimate match finally. I'm guessing it won't be the last though, and something will interrupt.

One Piece 656 - A dragon is interesting, but I feel this chapter was missing the potency the previous ones had. There's a huge mystery going on about Punk Hazard, and the Shichibukai being brought up is interesting, but I'd honestly prefer seeing Smoker and Luffy go at it. Just to see if Luffy can actually do anything now.

I'll start off the thread by saying one thing; Naruto is turning into garbage.

Personally, I feel Naruto's grown since the beginning - Or at least he seems much more likable these days, and I like that. The ninja war thing is kinda messy though, with a bunch of questions piling up, and then there's the lack of character fleshing. You'd expect to see what Lee and Hinata can do, but that isn't shown. Oh well, this seems to be coming towards a conclusion so there's not much that can be done for them at this point besides support.

I think Naruto's character is becoming too arrogant, but still better than before. But for everything else, I agree 100%.

Well, I read Bleach from time to time. It's about time for its "final arc". Kubo's strength is his characters, not counting boob girl and fillers, but he never keeps them around. Bleach has a bizarre flow and that's what kills it.

I recently read a Kannon manga and a Higurashi manga.

The manga I am reading/need to continue are more Higurashi and around Ch 100 of TWGOK.

True. Although the old one hasn't been active for a long time. In the end, if the Admins really, really, reeaaaaalllly see it as a problem, then they'll probably just merge them.

Don't let the name fool you. It's great manga.

Well "hentai" just means pervert, so I don't see anything particularly wrong with that. It's just that "hentai" for most people is NSFW stuff. You know, sexually explicit material.

Oh, it didn't fool me, that's why I said it sounds like something it isn't.
