i am liking the atmosphere..the manga is getting back to it's old charm…
Beelzebub

Oh yeah! I'm digging all this plot-advancing we got going on!
I love the joke-a-minute style of Beelzebub, but sometimes it's nice to have a good ol' fashion plot to check us intrigued! -
Public pooping is for plebian babies.
-
that was pretty good
the way oga placed bell on the toilet was pretty great, haha
also, hugh jackman and chest hair -
Who the fuck loves kanji?! Is this what Japan thinks of its reputation?
-
Kanji is beautiful 0
No seriously, it is.
-
It's a pain in the ass to learn. Regardless, I would've expected a more stereotypical answer like sushi or ramen… not kanji...
-

it was a joke by author regarding kanji difficulties for a non jap…
-
Sounds a bit too sophisticated for a guy who spent thr majority of this week's chapter on a poo joke…

tamura-sensei was in town for an autograph session.

Mwahahaha "Captain Fuck" makes my day
-
Beelzebub has thrown too many ''Fucks'' and poop jokes lately, getting bored with it fast this way.
-
Damn, that was too fast even for my taste.
-
The current story is going through the motions of setting up characters and whatnot. But that said it still feels really slow, not to mention that its handled really badly. I guess this is most obvious when you look at everything that has happened the last few chapters, and ask yourself why Tamura bothered introducing so many people that at this point in time bare little relevance to the plot or Ogas progression.
Realistically they should have cut everything out of the last three chapters, to the moment of Oga finding, defeating and using the henchmen as a tool to finding the main base. This could have cut it down a lot quicker and made free page space that could have been dedicated towards something worth covering.
I also dont like how poor the humor is. The US has some many stereotypes to bash, yet they've pretty much gone for jokes revolving around the language mistranslation and thats it. Im not even going to go into the macdonalds or samurai jokes.
I really hope Tamura turns this around and gets some solid character and chapter progression, packed more tightly into each chapter, as well as the return of some really good running gags that work in both languages.

Agreeing with Smudge, but something much more important: I approve of sexy Hilda ninja :ninja:

it's from the maou gaiden.
the other characters are from tamura-sensei's other one-shots.

This. Ah well, quality dropped fast anyway so it comes as no surprise.
-
I'm not feeling this arc, that's all I have to say…
-
This was all looking like it was gonna be epic and then it turns into meh-ville. Can we switch back Japan please?
-
So latest chapter's out.
! So is the series winding down to a finale? This did do the whole "we tied up all the past villains into one mastermind" thing and given the explanation of Beel in the human world is fully explained now, not really sure where else the story can be taken.

So this arc has a bunch of tropes:
! -Iris is the damsel princess in distress
-Iris also controls all the deadly sin demons (like Code:Breaker)
-Johan is Aizen
@Gizmo:! So is the series winding down to a finale? This did do the whole "we tied up all the past villains into one mastermind" thing and given the explanation of Beel in the human world is fully explained now, not really sure where else the story can be taken.
! I doubt it. We still got the rest of the demon kings (like the one from when they went to the demon realm and Beel became a giant, and that dude named Athrun stopped it all). Then there's Fuji and that crap.
! This is like the introduction of the arc. Kind of like an exposition shot. Now Oga and them are going to start working toward freeing Queen Iris, keeping the demon world united, dealing with Solomon, and keeping the Earth safe.
! It's the beginning of the beginning of the end or so -
So this arc has a bunch of tropes:
! -Iris is the damsel princess in distress

-Johan is AizenI just came here to say the same thing…
-
Pretty bad stuff.
If at least the whole Aizen thing was done in a spoofy way. . .
This can't be the same manga that gave us the videogame competition arc.
-
Just… Sigh.
The only reaction to these chapters is that. Sigh. -
i really don't see much connections of johan/athran to aizen.. except the i planned it all out thing.. :p
-
@melody:

Aizen has become like the pinnacle poster boy of this is all going according to my plan from the very start due to Bleach being so bad so other characters who do it and not in a worse way will get compared to him. This is opposed to them being compared to somebody like say Light due to Death Note actually being a good manga.

hh i agree.. and i like it when someone mentions aizen.. maybe he is watching us right now..? :p
-
Beez getting boring…..
-
It really does feel like Beelzebub is turning into Bleach. Except its still a lot more readable >.>
-
That's because, when you get down to it, the plot in Beelzebub has always been pretty lackluster and its execution has been straight up bad at times. The comedy, though, shines pretty brightly. I've gotten somewhat tired of this series over time, but I always look forward to when it makes me laugh.
-
I dropped it after the Behemoth arc and haven't looked back
-
I'm actually thinking about dropping it, but I will read the next 5-10 chapters before deciding
-
Why drop it? Unless its so bad its painful to read it, spending 5 minutes reading a chapter per week hardly makes any difference in time consumption and you will be somewhat entertained during that time.
-
The chapter in Chinese [hide]http://animeprodestiny.forumcommunity.net/?t=48428472[/hide]
-
feels like the end is near. the chapters has been very rushed and abrupt.
-
The Da Da moment was touching but goddamn is this series insanely rushed. It feels like its wrapping up for a craptacular ending.
-
That DaDa moment though… :'(
-
I choked up when beel said "da da"
-
Well, that's the first time in few month that a chapter of a manga was touching like that for me, (and that's not the King Riku, Dwarves, or Rebecca story, Obito as well that will make me tearseyes…)
Thanks that it's not only just comedy/action, and a little bit of drama. Beel was never been so cool and emoving with his "Da Da"
-
Damn it, I was bashing this series one week ago and now my eyes are all teary because of it.
Oga using Johan to break the wall was perfect.
but seriously though I almost cried D;
-
Holy crap that I think that was the first time I've seen Oga cry. The feels are rushing in now…...
-
HNNNG I didn't sign up for these feels :sad:
-
and now i feel like a piece of stone for feeling nothing in this chapter:sad:
-
Oh the feels in this chapter….:'(
