Glass Mask 75-78

As fucked up as Maya situation is, I find it odd the author is ignoring that Maya did decide to go party in the beach at night of her own will, even if it was a set up, the characters are acting as if she went against her will, which is pretty jarring.

There should be some element of self reflection by Maya part.

Well too bad Tsukikage, you're wrong, she DID went out to hang with them!
That's how she, unfortunately, ended up in a situation where someone drugged her.

KIWAGURO NO BRYNHILDR 166

It's rare for me to say this, but I didn't see this coming

 

[TheRealTalker]

Nanatsu no Taizai 163

The "threat" became them just having some girl talk while shrugging off assassins

 

[Zweizer]

LOVE/DEATH: Nicochuu ch4

Can you feel the love in the air~?

 

[AlphaDragoon]

Nanatsu no Taizai 163

The "threat" became them just having some girl talk while shrugging off assassins

I said last week that this "surprise combo" was a dumb concept since we already saw that Elaine was OP. Sure enough the whole chapter was her 1v2ing the scrubs and making them look stupid.

 

[Asturie]

Can you feel the love in the air~?

Art looks decent in that picture. Story any good?

 

[thesaucetastic]

Kanojo wa Rokurokubi 1-12

A slice of life series about a high school girl with an extendable neck, with a crush on her normal (?) childhood friend. Comes equip with other youkai, like someone who can change her face into other people's faces.

It was super cute.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Fairy Tail

Oh Ultear somehow got young and hot again that checks out

Fairy Tail 474

If I disregard that this reveal kinda destroys one of the few emotional and heavy moments in Fairy Tail, it was actually kinda surprising and fun.
And those hips.

The Fairy Tail Rule of Cool and/or Hot: nothing bad can permanently happen to a cool and/or hot character.

The original story is one of the best yuri series ever. This one is more low-key, but still pretty cute.

 

[A Huge Battleship]

Gokukoku no Brynhildr 166

Oh come on. Of all the girls in this story you could've chosen as Eve, you picked the one who's actually less appealing than a melted witch. Also this is now confirmed as the most awkward 'bring your child to work day' ever.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Food Wars! 155

Its hard to say if Kurokiba Ryou will win or not, they really have nothing to lose since they didnt really care about their society and its just honour on the line. They can always regain honour by just beating them gloriously in a rematch. Though with Ren going all the way to unleash his hi ougi, perhaps Ren will lose since theres nothing more for him to do.

Taku watch, great panel.

Whats the original story?

I said Who? When she was first shown

 

[Dedication Through Light]

World Trigger 132

Calling Kazama youngest guy was silly and child since he is the oldest one up there.

Good dialogue less action panels.

BLack Clover 50

Sums up this whole arc. This fight was great all around.

The ending reflection mirror proved it.

 

[wheeplash]

Nisekoi 206

Farewell, best ship.

 

[Zweizer]

Whats the original story?

The original story is just LOVE/DEATH and is about two very passionate girls.

Nicochuu is a sort of spin-off about two other milder but still passionate girls. Either way, do give it a read. You're sure to be entertained!

 

[Revo]

Haikyuu!! 194

Damn Bokuto is so hot/cold

 

[AlphaDragoon]

Nisekoi

And so it was that Tsugumi got gunned down. RIP Tsugumi.

Another casualty on the road to that Chitoge end.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V Chp 7

Yuuya oniichan confirmed for the Yuuto path, ignored Yuuzu-oneechan not once but twice even.

GOD is going to be epic.

 

[thesaucetastic]

Nisekoi 206

Tsugumi's too precious for damned words.

I'm glad she's not wasted on some dumb fuck like Raku, even though Chitoge will be (but Raku and her aren't that bad together since he doesn't act like a clueless dumbass like he did with all the other girls.)

Nisekoi 206

Tsugumi ought to have been a male character, would have greatly enhanced the storyline.

I was really hoping she was a male character in the beginning too, just because I didn't want it to degenerate into a harem (which it obviously ended up doing).

Kubera s2ep167

Damn, I hadn't expected her to be so damaged
Might not be looking too good for her in this fight either

 

[Semblance]

Tokyo Ghoul:re ch. 65

Arima working that dude over does nothing for me. Kaneki's smile seems so insincere, although that's probably because we haven't seen him show emotion in awhile.

Gisèle Alain ch. 26

Of course Colette has her own yuri harem.

 

[rrvv]

Nisekoi 206

So we left with 2 Girl now. Wonder what Author should do next. I doubt he go straight to go for end game now. I am expecting filler before we go there.

 

[Angry Grimace]

I like how they've systematically rejected all 4 of the obviously not-winning haremites and exactly one of them actually managed to tell Raku they wanted him, and she was like 20 and his teacher so it was probably illegal anyways.

I really hope that instead of heading into stupid fucking shenanigans, they address and wrap-up the Ruri and Shuu stuff. Something tells me that they just won't. I still have a suspicion that he will never choose between Chitoge and Onodera and while he might say something, he'll probably say it to both of them and not actually decide.

You know, despite the fact that he has an actual functioning relationship with one of them which is also integral to avoiding serious gang violence, and also that girl is rich as fuck and the other one works at a bakery.

Almost at 20k posts. Thread will have lasted for like half a year. I'll miss OT~

We already had that TWGOK OT title though.

It's too bad it's unpossible for Revo to make a comeback and dethrone Zweizer now. Maybe next time.

Mandatory Dungeon Meshi, Punpun, Prison School, Shinozaki and Keijo reading for everyone!

Something frog suit related imo.

 

[TheRealTalker]

we still don't have a mascot for MangaGAF

it was suppose to be Haly Dog but that fell through and the Frog guy (Mappy) was banished from this thread

 

[Zweizer]

I thought panda was our mascot.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun 74

2 parter wow

Poor Seo bro, caught in a manga where no one understands relationships

 

[LeleSocho]

I thought panda was our mascot.

Panda has been killed by a pile of homework

 

[Zweizer]

Panda has been killed by a pile of homework

Mascots don't necessarily need to be alive!

 

[TheRealTalker]

Panda changes into that Nisekoi girl sometimes

were not even sure if it is the real Panda anymore

 

[OniBarubary]

MangaGAF's mascot not being a gigantic ass is pretty much heresy

 

[LeleSocho]

Mascots don't necessarily need to be alive!

undead panda is always better than no panda!

 

[OniBarubary]

So was Tenjou Tenge ever worth a read? I read the first like...10 chapters and watched the anime and while vaguely entertaining I felt like it would power creep and wear out it's welcome super quick. I mean, does Bob ever become more than a jobber?

Or should I just watch the OP on repeat for the next hour like I've been doing for the past 4?

Helck

Synopsis:

The Demon King has been defeated and now the Demon World is running a competition to choose a successor. A muscular, high-level human named Helck has joined the competition claiming that he wishes to destroy all humans. Is he serious?

Red Vamirio, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the entire Demon Empire, is monitoring the competition and cannot trust him. What's the secret behind Helck, and the Human World?

Information

Helck is a webcomic authored and drawn by Nanao Nanaki. It started publication at Ura Sunday (same site where Mob Psycho 100 is) in 2014. Link: http://urasunday.com/helck/

Impressions:

At first it looked it was a gag manga that pokes fun at a lot of RPG tropes with its over powered hero and it was a pretty good hook. But as the story progressed the hero backstory is developed, new characters are introduced, a conflict established making the story serious and darker and the world is expanded. It made it a better a manga because even when the story gets darker, the manga retained its comedic elements.

The characters in this manga are entertaining as they have their own silly quirks and personalities. Some of the characters have their own backstory and connections with other characters which gives them depth and make you care for them. They also develop as the story progresses leading to some great moments.

The world building is well done as the characters goes to other places and some secrets about it are revealed. There is also a lot of it to be revealed in the future too making you curious about other places of interest.

It is also interesting that in this manga humanity are the bad guys and the demons are the good guys.

In short, It is a engaging and entertaining fantasy shounen with likeable characters and a good plot that at first indicated that it would be a gag manga.
