As much as I expected to be let down, I suppose this wasn't as bad as it could have been. At least it's certainly nowhere near Mx0 or Double Arts levels of disappointing endings...
Why do you have to reopen old wounds?

Why do you have to reopen old wounds?
Just so you don't be disappointed, I believe volume 3 or maybe 4 has almost no action. They take time to develop their cast of characters.
See You Next Wednesday

Wednesdays you say?
I guess those would be external factors so it still wouldn't be a completely "voluntary" ending... doesn't make it any less bullshit though.

Gimme back the time I lost reading this Akamatsu. This ending has succeeded in letting a sour taste and spoiling the whole series for me.

Came in expecting a cool down chapter after the couples tourney but pleasantly surprised by a boss battle set-up ending
Nisekoi
This feels more and more like a bad Love Hina
Negima
I don't know what was worse, this ending or PSG's ending.
Wolf Guy
I didn't read it I was just surprised it was still going on and being translated.

As long as it's good, I don't mind. Finished volume 2 and even though I saw that twist from a mile away, I'm still intrigued. Is it just me or is the art for moving objects and people way better than the static stuff?

Negima END
Hahahahahahaha
Hahaha
So ends what was probably one of the first mangas I ever picked up. Overall, I had a blast with it. Never took it particularly seriously and I think that helped.
Now, where's my bodacious space sequel?

Negima end
I know it's what everyone has said, but seriously... So where's the ending? Love Hina had a good, solid ending, so I was expecting one in this series too once it finally ended, but he seems to have forgotten to write one. This chapter goes through what happens to everyone in the cast except for the most important thing, about Negi and Asuna and whoever it is Negi likes. That the series never resolves one of its central issues certainly does bring it down overall, for sure. And this from the same person who made Love Hina... it's sad.
(The character bios of what they did in the future was kind of interesting, because that's not something Love Hina had, but seriously, the missing part of the ending was far more important.)

WTF, why? Grimmjow has absolutely NO loyalty to Aizen, nor does he the power to free him, even if he was.

Ok does Mashiro's mom not know about this whole love bullshit so far? Cause Mashiro is either closing the TV cause he is too embarrassed or he still hasn't told her which is fucking stupid.
So then Mashiro goes to the supermarket and 2 kids ask him for an autograph. Are they really that lame? Some nerd wants an innocent love and embarrasses himself on the radio and they fucking look up to him? Why? Seriously. They don't even look like nerds so I can't write them off as losers. But whatever, maybe they are just lame kids.
Oh and also the TV stations picked on it and they all seem cool with it? Has everyone in the goddamn country lost their mind? I think this is gold material for SNL/Leno/Conan. Someone for the love of god just make fun of them and mock them publicly.
Also lol, there is a magazine dedicated to voice actresses. Such a serious business
Miho's manager seriously sucks. Miho can't work on multiple series cause she wants to focus on the role for Reversi? Last time I check, VAs do shit load of projects at the same time. Miho is such a scrub and her manager got no balls.
I seriously don't understand how they have an editor answering meaningless pointless calls from idiots. Just have an answering machine that says "Hey buddy, they are in a relationship. Got a problem with that? Then go suck it and cry on 2ch"
My god, the anime staff is really clueless. I can't think of a more contrived scenario where they can extend this bullshit and have Miho lose or some garbage like that. It's also such a shame that the director came up with the idea. It's like he is not getting paid to fucking direct the anime. I honestly thought the dude had balls when they showed him earlier but he fell to the "brain malfunction" disease that is affecting everyone in the series

Thanks for reminding me. New page so new obligatory Kano-loop sadness.

I think I'll keep putting off catching up on Bakuman.

I split my list in to genre lists because I couldn't find anything in the default one.
Reading: 340
Completed: 502
I also started Blue Exorcist and it's really good. It was similar to D.Gray Man at first but it quickly got over any similarities besides the whole exorcist theme. I'm up to ch28 so I'm nearly caught up. Also Koeneko sucks and I hate him, easily the worst character in the series.

If anyone but me bothered to read it, they'd find Osu!! Karatebu is the true master stroke on that list.

Yeah he is easily the worst in the group, though fortunately they gave Renzou Shima many more lines that one can easily forget koneko, and the first to be friends and forgive Rin, which was great.
Usually, but Hajime No Ippo and Magi are also guilty of this.
She knows. She says outright that nobody would be opposed to him marrying Miho. She actually seems kinda proud of him, which is a nice contrast compared to earlier in the series.
Is it not entirely possible that they could just be fans and wouldn't pass up such a chance?
Guess they could be nerds too. >_>I'm sure some TV show in Japan is mocking it. >_>
Pretty certain such a magazine exists in real life too. I know Shueisha (owners of Jump) have one for idols and models.
EDIT: Yup, there was one called Voice Animage. Which is exactly what you'd expect it to be about...
They're probably required to answer all calls. :\

Mashiro seriously needs to see counseling for this stupid self-sabotage complex of his. "No, it's not all right for my girlfriend to accomplish something normally, we need to PROVE IT with a popularity contest based on circular logic."

I was more wondering has he never told her about Miho before? He is pretty successful dude and I don't see why he needs to hide it from his mom. I can't remember what happened in the beginning. I think she was only opposed to his job, can't remember if his love life was ever mentioned to her.
It's just weird seeing an editor handling that especially since I'm guessing it's not a call from the press. I would just have some part timer handle the crazy fans, no need to stress out the editors.
She learned all the way back in the Detective Trap/Hospital arc that he was dating Miho. Chapter 46. She was surprised to see that he had a love that wasn't Manga. XD
I'd imagine they're just doubling up on characters for this part. In real life they probably do have assistance handling that.

Is that where they're supposed to be from? I just thought they were red heads from some imaginary African doppelganger called the "Dark Continent".

That's pretty tame too considering the other examples.
Didn't One Outs also try to solve the BLACK MUSCLES conundrum at one point? Or am I thinking of another baseball series?
There was the Bugaboo's game that was basically just "BLACK GUY CAN RUN."

Well, goddamn. Another amazing chapter. Here I was thinking that this would be another breather chapter to kick Eren while he's down again. Apparently the mangaka has far more grandiose plans.

Generally they're saying the the Japanese suck genetically. It's an odd commentary all around.
Ippo was the first Japanese the coach had seen who could throw an uppercut like a westerner after all...

So my total post count is somewhere around 2200 for the Manga Discussion/News threads. I wonder where that puts me. Grimace is probably closer to 4,000, but I'm just edging him out in total posts overall so I'm happy.
The only reason anyone knows what Mashiro looks like is because of the news story. They were at a convenience store, so they were probably there to buy Jump and are fans of Reversi. Just because Bakuman is a poisonous piece of shit without any redeeming values doesn't mean you should make disingenuous assumptions.

I believe some people commented on this late in the last thread, but now we have confirmation: a new series from Mitsuru Adachi is on the way.
A new adachi series? hopefully its about american football

Now that I've had a chance to sick back and think about it, the world of OP is ridiculously overpowered. Not DBZ levels, obviously. But Jesus Christ, it's almost as if Oda has no boundaries. Kizaru can move at the speed of light. SPEED OF LIGHT for fucks sake. Why didn't his editors tell him that was a horrible ass idea? Theoretically, Kizaru should stomp every character in the series with complete ease.
