Maybe JUMP's editorial department favors this manga over other like-wise low ranking manga? I mean, this manga does have some educational value… or maybe there's just no other interesting manga for serialization.... Anyway, I would be grateful if this manga continues... Even though I think the characterization is weak, the plot does make up for it....

RE: Sket Dance.
Super Mariko Broken is really my favourite chapter of this manga! (comedy wise) I'm glad the anime handle it greatly…
Is there news on whether the anime will end or something?

RE: Gintama Discussion
Wow I love the new opening. Finally the two mascots are back .
Seeing in the ending how many characters this show managed to gather make me think that with that much material, this manga can just last forever just like the Simpsons.I'm pretty sure Gintama will be the second Kochikame, though, in the end, it'll all depends on Sorachi whether to continue or end it…
Now, about the anime, loved the new opening, it conforms that we'd at least will get the Baragaki arc, but with it's fast pace, the anime will probably end on April... If we lucky, we'll probably even get Kintama arc, or that they will make Kintama arc as the shows ending? That's not a bad place to end now that I think about it...

RE: Gintama Discussion
When they mention the Joui Past, it can only mean 2 things, either we get that or we wont…
I think the manga will continue to laze around this year and put major arcs for next when it's in it's 10th year...
Laze around is the soul of Gintama after all.... -
RE: Chapter 651 : "The Voice From The New World"
Does the 4-koma stuff have been translated and scan already?

RE: A Study of One Piece Animation
Does Shimanuki always had such bad animators staff like this current episode?
-
RE: Gintama Discussion
I find the new episode to be incredibly rushed… I really don't like the idea of putting 2 chapters of Gintama into one episode... A chapter of Gintama is already worth about 1.5 chapter of One Piece, and dozens chapters of Bleach...
The best pace for the anime is really 1.5 chapter for an episode... -
RE: Gintama Discussion
The gintama anime messing something up?
I don't…really understand. Has that happened at all?
Honestly? Yes, they sometimes mess things up…
Even though I regard anime Gintama as the best JUMP anime adaptation, it's not 100% perfect... Well, most stuff aren't that big, but the biggest was, making Ketsuno Ana a reporter girl instead of Hanano Ana... They stop doing that halfway through though.
At times like this that Kagura's line in the anime becomes useful... "the anime staff should really read the manga properly before making the anime" -
RE: Beelzebub
The chapter's already out.
http://manga.redhawkscans.com/reader/read/beelzebub/en/0/137/page/1
It takes me less than one minute to read this… I hope other fights won't be off-screened and I really hope Toujou's fight with that other 2 demons will be flashback... -

Am I the only one who didn't really like Vegeta either? I mean it got annoying when he would just make things worse each arc.

RE: The "Shueisha" Thread
good luck to you sir, honestly i would just watch the anime, its much better in this case. with the lack of any good translators, and the official translation from viz thrown down.
has the manga situation changed any over this pass couple of years?
Well, if you're wondering, there's only one group that actively does Gintama now with great quality scans and translation… I'd say, you better check them out here…
-
RE: Gintama Discussion
From the preview, it seems like the anime probably would put a bit filler on that arc (I see a drunk Tsukuyo on the preview)
I wouldn't mind if the anime put some filler on it… Heck, I wouldn't even mind if they drag it until next year using 1:1 pacing... It's a great arc, it'll be a shame to end it in a fast pace... -
RE: The "Shueisha" Thread
Gintama is first? Haven't seen that for a while…
It's chapter 375, right? I knew it'll placed high, enough to even tops a great One Piece chapter... -
RE: Chapter 650 : Two changes you need to know.
Before I turned the pages that reveals the winner of Akainu vs Aokiji, I was hoping that Jinbei would say, "Kizaru Kung-fu kick both of them and take the fleet-Admiral title for himself!" lol
Anyway, good chapter. Most of the revelations in this chapter were predictable, but was told in a nice way… Caribou seems to always manage to get away from being totally screwed... Hopefully, he won't continue to be an annoyance...

RE: One Piece Parodies
Apparently I have nothing better to do than share this…
And the translations too:
[hide]"ニート!" NEET!
(Based off of One Piece opening #15, "We Go!")~Once hated by everyone in the world, the legendary Jobless King, Old Moger.
Just before his death, his words brought over the human trash to listen.
"My property? If you want it, take it. Gather around! You can count on me!!"
The human trash everywhere pursue after it, the world is now in the "Great Employment Age"!!Employment isn't here, It's miserable, my family's words hurt!
Failing-at-life people NEET!!In my room with basket in hand, let's go close the door!
Drop any boasting, sleep is my only lifestyle!
It's impossible to go out in society, always being jobless outside is tough!To be idle, is that a crime?
Rather in home security, as a winner!
Ah, freedom is our only virtue!
Manual labor, f*ck off!…Not making much effort, attitude toward the Net is super huge!
A problem child to an amazing degree...Life course correction, not here yet, my family's words hurt!
Failing-at-life people NEET!!We have made it this far, we will go, from inside our homes, no one can stop us...
There's only despair, a lost future, mingling with others,
Ever since that day, everyone's gaze is frightening...Life isn't here, can't go back, the feeling to work hasn't come!
Failing-at-life,
Failing-at-life,
Failing-at-life people NEET!!
NEET!![/hide]Note: NEET = "not in education, employment, or training".
2nd note: Old Moger's name written in kanji comes out to "old mourning person"Enjoy.
Sounds like a song for a MArude DAme na Ossan, in short, MADAO…

RE: A Study of One Piece Animation
@Yuugi's:
Ah, one dud and three kinds for the month. There's not much in the way of fighting so I guess we won't have much need for big name key animators.
I won't really consider Yokoyama to be a dud… His just what TOEI need for a fast, decent looking, non-actiony episode... So, unless TOEI doesn't make stupid decision like putting him on an important episode without giving some great animators like that Whitebeard episode, he's good in my book...
Plus, he does gets better with his art now...
@Hao-sama,
With the recent episode, I get now why background art wasn't good on underwater adventure episode... Aside from not really having much to draw, it seems like they focus more on Fishmen Island's... -

RE: Gintama Discussion
Oy, I just read in some forum that the Renho girl in Katsura's story at the beginning of the Renhou arc was a japenese politician and Sorachi was just making fun of her while doing her compaign.
I'm not sure about that, but if it's true, this manga is getting better and better then. I think it's the first Jump manga to make fun of politicians and that's what make it so great in my view.
This manga is looking more and more like a japanese version of "the Simpsons" and I hope it'll continue this way.Edit:
Ah i found the source of that information just now:
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-11-18/tv-tokyo-decided-to-pull-gintama-episode-on-its-own Renho is a minister and it seems that the episode was almost cancelledI finally understand what Kintoki said by the anime scandal was part of his plan… I know that the anime always involve in scandals one way or another, but this issue really stands out and almost makes it canceled... The issue of the first episode of the Renhou arc still hasn't been resolve... If the anime is canceled, so is the manga and a new serialisation is possible...
Slick move by Sorachi!

Togashi! Death Note! Bleach! References Overdose!
Sad that we didn't see Toujo figh though..
I get Togashi, but what's Death Note and Bleach?
Awesome chapter btw, I knew Himekawa and others are joining in this chapter, but still awesome…

RE: Chapter 648: The Path Towards The Sun
I wan to officially say Goodbye
I hoped we will see Hody before the end of this arc in BASE once again ![](http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff286/nfforums/NF smilies/cryinganime.gif)
But he is still that stupid Hulk Oda made him…
One of the best designs have been completely destroyed =(
GOODBYE BASE HODY ![](http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff286/nfforums/NF smilies/cryinganime.gif)
EDIT
I will wear this Avatar for one week from now in honor of Hody JonesGoodbye base Hody….
Hello once again scary-looking-hulk-sized Hody... I hope you die!!! (not that I hate you) -
RE: The "Shueisha" Thread
I should probably catch up on the series (only read up to volume… 7?) and get in on this joke.
The fact that your username is OnePark, (which is a One Piece parody in Gintama-verse) makes me think that you're all caught up…
EDIT:
@kewl0210:The fact that some of you are believing that, I find absolutely hilarious.
! Uhh, I read a bit of this new serial translation, and I got the feeling it parodied Nisekoi?!!!

RE: Gintama Discussion
I tought that Sorachi was Kubo's friend.. those were pretty heavy jabs at Bleach, that has no way to return the fire with it's terrible pacing.
I can't wait to see the conclusion to this arc,.
If Sorachi is Kubo's friend, that might be the reason he writes about distrust and everything… Especially, after receiving those heavy one-two punch...
I can't to see how far Bleach will fall in the TOC...:ninja:
-
RE: Gintama Discussion
New chapter is out!
! It's apparently the last chapter of Kintama arc and the last chapter of Gintama?!!
This chapter has pretty serious and heavy mood but I still had to laugh at Kintoki's speaking like Aizen/Tsukishima/Ginjou when they tried mindfucking the protagonist (well, this arc was suppose to be Bleach parody)… His line about him controlling the editors and the anime just makes me laugh!
but what's more, Sorachi seems like he just shot at Kubo in more way than one! and since this is last week's chapter, it just shows the contrast between the two manga, in which both have mindfucking the protagonist chapter... lol, if Sorachi ever thought of bringing down Bleach!

RE: A Study of One Piece Animation
Anyone else think that this series needs a little more CG animation? Well, at least for the background artwork…
This last few episodes just doesn't have impressive background art... -
RE: Chapter 647: "Stop Noah"
lol the wonderer thinks one piece is the best written manga ever… it's my favorite by a long shot, but in no way shape or form is it the best written, read will's post i can def say, hunter X hunter, Berserk, and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (from what I've read) are far better written, and jjba is definitely debatable, it's definitely the series with the best fights i'd say
I think it's impossible to make the best manga ever out of weekly format… All those mangas that were mentioned above pretty much have irregular release date, so they had lots of time to planned out how their mangas will go... Even though One Piece is on weekly format, the art quality never dropped... and Oda still manage to make the story well thought out.....
So, while One Piece may not be the best written manga ever, it's still one of the best written manga in weekly format... -

RE: Chapter 647: "Stop Noah"
I certainly don't hate the arc, it's solid but nothing extraordinary. Personally there has been too much action and not enough adventure/exploration.
I agree on this. Hopefully, now that the battle is over, the Strawhats can finally resume their adventure and exploration on the island… There's still a lot of place on the island that was named but hasn't been fully explored yet...(heck, we only got to see the front door of Mermaid Cafe! and we have yet to see Fishmen Dojo!) There's more to see in this arc than just battle... Now that all of that is over, we can finally focus on little things like, Reverie preparation, island reformation and whatnot...

RE: Beelzebub
Last chapter, it's Toujou, this chapter, it's Kunieda, so next chapter, Himekawa will appear and next next chapter, it'll be Kanzaki… or both of them and their crew will show'd up at the same time... Hopefully, Toujou's buddies will too...

The chapter is short, but I really like it!
Glad the actions are over, hope we'll get more wordy chapter next! -
RE: Gintama Discussion
I doubt that Hedoro will show up in a serious arc, ever.
It's my complain with certain serious arcs in Gintama, were was the Shinsengumi, the Yagyu and the Yoshiwara girls, hell, even katsura and sachan when the 4 emperors clashed? now, again the shinsengumi nowhere to be found and the people that helped out that arc neither.
Well, not every character can show up in every arc, from a storytelling perspective I get it, but it should be noticed and lampshaded.
It was understandable that Katsura, Shinsengumi and others to not show'd up during the 4 emperors arc… they're not from Kabuki-chou...
but Hedoro is Yorozuya's freakin neighbour!! but then again, if he participate in serious arc, no one can beat him lol... -
RE: Gintama Discussion
Kin vs Gin is bound to be epic!
Though, I have to say, Where the hell is My neighbour Hedoro in all this?!! lol, if he's there, and if he's side with Kintoki, he wouldn't lose…
maybe the brainwashing doesn't affect the Dakini amanto though.... -
RE: The "Shueisha" Thread
I think so ,with that kinda of drawing.
Gintama is a gag manga but it has a pretty serious-like drawing…
If there's a serious manga with a gag-like drawing, I would really like to read it.... -
RE: The "Shueisha" Thread
Oh right, I guess I didn't notice it on previous TOC…
It's a gag manga right? Have anyone read it? -
RE: Gintama Discussion
I see,
I'm now at the chapters where there making fun of Bleach, it's hilarious, and it just started
EDIT: lol it was about some sage who wanted to teach them some secret techniques but they were to lazy, and just kicked the shit out of him
Your close to one of my favourite arc, Hasegawa's trial!

RE: The "Shueisha" Thread
Wait, but why now? OP celebrated its 14th anniversary in August…
Early celebration maybe?
Good top 5. Gintama is second again!! but shame on St&rs being last… I really like educational manga like that... Silver Spoon for example, is a great manga with high educational value...

RE: Gintama Discussion
I've been reading lots of this series now, it started out pretty plain and boring but I think I'm finally starting to like it
I loved this picture
You will love it even more from now on… The jokes, art and fights gets better as the series went by...
Oh yeah, volume 40, buck-naked Shogun...
He just can't have screen time without showing his little "Shogun" lol...--- Update From New Post Merge ---
The new chapter is out on HiWaMata! and later the anime will be out! What a great day!!
EDIT:
The chapter is awesome as usual! I loved the dialogue-less action in this series!
Gintoki can still joke around even though his life on the line. And next it'll be the girls vs Kintoki? -
RE: The "Shueisha" Thread
@Lazy:
Sigh, the story in the one-shot is so much better than the manga. Obviously, for serialization they needed to extend the plot by adding other elements, but the whole love-triangle pendant twist is stupid. If thye stretched out the one shot more, and maybe added a non-contrived love interest later, I think it would've worked better.
Either way, I can't imagine this surviving that long, unless the plot really develops. It seems like a dead-end to me, but I'll continue to read it to see if the mangaka can take it somewhere interesting (also I'm a sucker for romcoms, so…).
Pretty much agree on this…
I don't really like romantic comedy manga, but if it's really funny then I don't mind... (my favourite romcom manga is School Rumble btw)
But this manga doesn't really have a great comedy sense, so....
I'll just stick around and see where this leads... (I do like the idea of yakuza vs mafia though)
