Updates:

Sorry! I just got home [it's 1:29 AM here].. really bad traffic. Came from this really popular annual anime convention, but I didn't really have that much fun. It felt like the previous con was waaaaay better than this one. But I guess I was still happy, nevertheless - all thanks to the people I was with. :D Thanks, guys.. :D

Naruto: Chapter 425

Kishimoto just keeps getting better and better [and better and better and better.. XD]

So now we've got three tentative paths to the story: one, Kakashi + White Fang's discussion [ahemFATHER-SONBONDINGSESSIONINTHEAFTERLIFEahem], Konoha's destruction [aka Ibiki finally showing us his legendary ninja skills lulz] and Naruto's training [more froggy-vs-kyuubi, anyone?]..


While it's good that Kishimoto-sensei's starting to tie up the loose ends, like in Kakashi's case, it's getting really confusing now that everything's just so muddled up. On one chapter the focus is on Kakashi, but then the next chapter would be focusing on a totally different matter - and while it's good that everyone's getting screen time and a lot of plot has been covered, it's really frustrating for things to get cut up to pieces and have fans wait for the next installment only to receive said installment after a looooooooong period of waiting.

And let's not forget that Sasuke, Killer Bee and the remaining Akatsuki [Tobi + Kisame + Conan + plant guy whose name always escapes me. damnit.] ARE STILL ALIVE.

But then again, maybe Kishimoto-sensei has a plan? I sure do hope so, since this chop-chop thing is turning out like the bleach dillemna I've been complaining for weeks now.


Naruto Shippuden: Episode 85

No episode next week, guys. Thanksgiving in their country. XD

Next next week will give us a double episode, though, so watch out for it. :D


I just realized that I haven't watched episodes 83 and 84. I'm pretty sure they cover the whole of the Hidan-Kakuzu battel with Shika + co [not the Asuma-gets-killed battle, this is the 2nd confrontation where Konoha actually wins. :D].. This week's release is still included in that, I think.

I think the link is an LQ release/reupload, but right now, I'm too lazy to bother looking up some other mirror. Maybe if anyone asks, I'll try to find better releases.. :D


Bleach: Chapter 334

I'm not going to harp on Bleach this week since we [yaoi] fangirls get to see some fanservice. :D

Seriously though, can anyone get any more cannon in the Bleach fandom than Kyoraku and Ukitake? I mean, come on. Seriously. XDDDD

Some more Matsumoto-Hinamori crap fest. Ahaha. Ahahahaha. Ahahahahahaha.

Going back to Kyoraku though... he's really scary. I've only seen some instances of his "scary" face before, but so far, the one in this chapter is the scariest yet [page 6]. He was scary when he and Ukitake were fighting Yamamoto-taichou, he was scary when he was fighting in Diamond Dust Rebellion [with Hakkai-Zura. Did anyone else notice that they all share the same seiyuu? XD], he was scary just this chapter, in page 6 [repeat repeat repeat]. I wonder what's in store for Kyoraku.. XD

And Ukitake-taichou.. has a loli-fetish? [Oh noes!]


Katekyo Hitman Reborn: Target 219 | Here too

I looooove the expression in Gokudera's and Chrome's faces on page 2. XDDDD


And the small Spanner pane in page 9!!!! GUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! Spanner, so unloved in this chapter!

AND THE TWO-PAGE SPREAD. 16-17. SQUA-SQUA-SQUA-SQUA-SQUA-

SQUALOOOOOOOOOO!!!! KYAAAAAAAH!!! [VOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIII!!!!]


So Irie kind of explains all the things in this chapter. But one thing just struck me as very odd... why didn't Gokudera, the RIGHT HAND MAN, know of the plan? Tsuna didn't trust him to keep it secret? I doubt that, but maybe he thought Gokudera wouldn't allow such dangerous actions... but then again, just a word from Tsuna will have Gokudera bowing at his feet and doing all that he wishes...

And what about TYL!Ryohei? He seemed like he knew what was going on, too.. Did he really know? D:

I really want to believe Irie. I've always wanted him to be on Tsuna's side [and Spanner too, but that's an entirely different manner], and it helps that TYL!Hibari knows he's not an enemy. That's got to count for something, right?

I wonder what the hell they were thinking when they devised such a risky plan...

[And will Dino be fighting in the Italy main force thing as well? I WANT TO SEE HIS HAIR!]

AND XANXUS! XANXUS IS THERE, ISN'T HE?! MY SCAR-FACED XANXAN. GARGH.



Eyeshield21: 307th DOWN!

Gaou looks absolutely cool and human in page 11. 8D

And I'd like to say Hiruma borrowed Kaiba's jet [page 13]. XDDDD


I have a question... is Kid already ok? I mean, if he's going to be in the team, he has to have already healed. Has he? I'm not entirely sure, but I think he hasn't [referring to the victory picture of Deimon where Kid can be seen standing in the background with a sling] completely recovered from Gaou's attack.

So Sena and Monta go around asking players from other teams to join in. Agon's bit in the first pages had me giggling a little - wth, AgonGaou moments? EWWW.

And Hiruma has a secret doll fetish. I just know it. [That, or he has some weird voodoo thing going on. Damn.]


EDIT: OMG, PANTHER IS SO FRIGGIN HOT. HOT. HOT. HOT. [And it doesn't help that Kujirai's his seiyuu. Damn it, ES21 should continue the anime! I want to see more PANTHER. XD]


On a lighter note, NarutoChuushin has changed its layout! Yay! :D

Aaah, sorry. Just so tired from the stupid con. Damn, I wasted money going there. Not worth my time, really. Probably the only thing worth seeing there was the Gintama plush doll [and even then, it sucked. Big time.] on sale. Ahaha, but it didn't even look like Gintoki. So never mind. (-_____-)
