Reborn chapter 275

We have an action-packed chapter this week but it's certainly not exciting to see Tsuna getting beaten up by Byakuran while others are watching like sitting ducks... Hopefully there will be a plot twist in the next chapter... (Most likely there will be seeing how Amano-sensei usually does...)


I felt like reading some kind of super robot manga in this page. Wao, doesn't that remind you of iron cutter of Mazinger-Z or what? Anyway very nice.


Even the name of the move is very super robot-like.


Somehow this week's Reborn chapter was a lot like this week's Bleach chapter. Like the main bad guys totally showing off how freakin' awesome strong they can be. Hopefully someone will do something and help Tsuna. (But I don't want Tsuna to pull a sudden miracle move and finish all by himself... LOL)

Bakuman chapter 71



-So Shizuka Ryu finally makes his appearance.(The guy with glasses in the pic) He looks like a combination of Mikami from Death Note and Izumi from Hikaru no Go. (LOL) I really like his character and I'm looking forward to see what he can come up with.

-Eiji is really gonna draw 2 series for Jump. Wao, this kid is like a real manga genius.

-I still don't like Iwase... Just give up on Takagi already, you stubborn woman...

-Tanto is getting serialized, WTF... Let's see how long Team Ashirogi can go with this... (...and this chapter once again showed how incapable Miura is as an editor...)

Top 5 bishies with white/silver hair

Okay, so I came up with another boring top 5 thingy to write about in my blog. I think characters with whitey/silvery-colored hairs seem to be popular in animes so here's my very biased top 5 bishies with white/silver hair.






#5 - Gokudera Hayato (Reborn!)


So #5 on my list is Vongole's Storm Guardian Gokudera Hayato. I have to admit that I'm not a huge fan of Hayato but I really admit that he's one of the most stylish characters in Reborn. Also he is quite likable... Like how he tries to act all tough and manly around but is still very much a BOY LOL. ...and his smile makes him adorable at times too, haha.






#4 - Heine Remmschteiner (Dogs)


#4 on my list is the protagonist of Dogs, which isn't really a well-known series. While the anime was meh so-so, the manga is getting quite interesting. (Except the awkward pacing of the manga with not enough pages in each chapter...) What makes this series really interesting is the set of interesting characters and of course Heine totally kicks @ss. Heine is totally cool, yes. He's a real tough one, yep. But he's also very fragile, which gives an extra touch to his character. (...and plus he's voiced by Sakurai Takahiro in anime, what more can we ask???) I hope Dogs ~Bullets and Carnage~(<=Full title of the sequel after the prequel manga, which the anime was based on) gets a TV anime someday. (Right now, it's too early given the amount of manga we have)






#3 - Sakata Gintoki (Gintama)


Awww... Poor Gin-san...
Since we are talking about "ginpatsu"(meaning silver-haired in Japanese) here, we can't NOT include this dude. Haha. So #3 on my list is Ginpachi-sensei, no... Gintoki from Gintama. This guy is just hilarious... Definitely one of the wackiest Shounen Jump heroes so far... But when he gets serious, he can be pretty cool too. Yes, Gintama is definitely better when it comes to serious story lines. <=biased opinion again






#2 - Superbia Squalo (Reborn!)


VUOOOOOOIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!
Okay, so #2 on my list is Varia's hawt battle commander Squalo-taichou~ Yes, another character from Reborn...(because I love this series LOL) Just like other Varia members, I didn't really like Squalo at first.(but not Fran since I liked him from his debut LOL) But from the future arc, he really grew on me. We can definitely tell that he really cares about Tsuna and co. in the future. ...and yes, his hair is awesome. Geez, I wanna touch that long beautiful hair of his...(Squalo: NOT A CHANCE, B*TCH!) What shampoo does he use anyway???






#1 - Takemoto Yuuta (Honey & Clover)


So yes...#1 on my list is Takemoto Yuuta from Honey & Clover. (Yeah, I know it's kinda unexpected to some of you) Honey & Clover is definitely the best slice-of-life anime I watched so far. It was such a beautiful series... Whenever I play the very last episode of the anime, I feel like crying like this during Yuuta x Hagu scene. I know a lot of people prefer Shinobu over Yuuta but I prefer the other way around like 10 times more, whew...<=biased opinion once again LOL Hagu...you gotta go find Yuuta after you get well otherwise you'll never find a man like that EVER in your life. Sorry, I talked too much here. Yes, Takemoto Yuuta rocks and he really deserves a good future.

Reborn chapter 274

Pretty good chapter this week!!!



So Tsuna defeats Ghost and everyone's like WAO until they notice that something is wrong.
(Fran going Woot~ in the first panel is just...priceless... >__<)

Yes, Byakuran actually shows up at the scene...and then...


GO! TSUNA! KICK HIM! WHACK HIM! SMACK HIM! YEAAAAH!
I can feel Tsuna's rage! I mean Byakuran gave so much pain to his friends. You go Tsuna. d-o-d Give Tsuna a chair and this scene will easily turn into a wrestling match. (LOL)


Wait, I feel like I've seen this before.
Oh yeah, right. In Bleach...


Nice pair of wings you got there, Byakuran... But too bad you are going up against like around 20 people.


P.S. Xanxus-sama, do you still hate Tsuna that much? T_T
P.S.2 Congrats to Hibarin for winning gakkoii chara award for Shounen Jump recently. Although he had like 0 line for last few chapters or so... (But even in small panels, this guy really shines...)

Bakuman chapter 69


Good to see this series back too. But for a slice-of-life manga, Bakuman ends in too many cliffhangers!!! Anyway Nakai...that idiot... Now he's quitting manga after getting dumped twice? But I bet he'll be back somehow. ...and I knew Tanto was not a good choice for serialization. Team Ashirogi Muto seriously needs a decent editor. I hope they can come out with something good for next serialization meeting. Oh and Fukuda gakkoiiyo Fukuda!!! (He quickly became my favourite character within last few chapters)

Reborn chapter 273

Weekly Shounen Jump is back after 2 weeks of hiatus!!! Wao, it was such a long wait. Anyway good to see Reborn back.


I loved this scene. Kyoko and Haru are just so adorable. >__<


Yamamoto kita---!!!
Good to see him back. ...and Squalo is alive too!!! (Yesss!)


Xanxus-sama, koeee...
He's like you are f*cking late when Squalo is all bruised and stuff... Levi and Bel are like getting pissed off at the fact that Squalo is alive... (Bad boys LOL) I appreciate the fact that Fran is always entertaining. ^O^


Yes, Tsuna was really cool this chapter. Now that he entered the battle field, let's see what the fight becomes of.


P.S. Hopefully things will move faster now that the battle is getting intensive.
P.S.2 I really wanna see Fran fight and show off his AMAZING BOX WEAPON that he mentioned in this chapter. (I know a lot of fans think the same)
P.S.3 This is my 1st post in 2010. WAO.
