for some reason, my local bookstore had a copy of Viz's Volume 59 extra early (i don't live in north america, so seeing it here more than a week before the release date is a surprise). Epic volume, aside from using Teech instead of Teach. Seriously, wtf Viz?
Still, Volume 59 is awesome. I reread it so many times already for the past week. I must be a masochist, making myself cry every single time with that first chapter. ;________; also Whitebeard's death scene and speech gives me goosebumps every time i reread it.
on another note, I also bought Naruto Volume 53 as well. God, that Minato, Naruto and Kushina cover page gets me every time. this is probably the only Naruto volume I'll ever buy.
It's a good week for translated manga. well the December 6 releases are great, at any rate.
