I knew that woman was a fighter since she first appeared so I'm glad she isn't a meek female character lusting after a guy with power.
Moving on, I like Robin's use of her abilities and how she is used to making these doubles and get herself out of trouble..
I'm not really super invested in the fight with that guy but him being a the shogun who betrayed our samurais, I suppose this is an important fight. It just doesn't excite me.
I want to see:
- Chopper and big mom and how that situation evolves
- if Luffy will make use of his time in prison to learn some new technique that will come in handy when fighting kaido later
- I want to see here those mink guys are right now
- If Marco and the other guys will still appear in the fight (maybe Oda-san wanted to throw us off by making him refuse at first and maybe he'll appear in the battle after all)
- I want to see how Oda-san resolves the whole thing vs Kaido because on one hand he is the strongest immortal creature ever but on the other hand, he needs to be taken down or at least pushed out of wano because let's face it: this arc can't end with the samurais + strawhats + mink running out of wano and that's it
Is it just me or does this arc feel somewhat like Bleach's final arc? I racked my brain thinking of possible reasons that my subconscious is making that connection and this is what I came up with so far:
1- In bleach, until the last arc with the 1000 year old war, practically no one died (Gin's death wasn't even properly acknowledged) and then with the last arc Yamamoto died, his vice captain as well, Rukia's captain, the freaking king/god of soul society...
Same in black clover (I know there aren't that many deaths but just the emperor is a pretty major case and who knows if we're going to lose anyone else)
2- Also the arc basically starts with the death of the big "kingdom protector" (yamamoto in bleach and the emperor in black clover)
3- We've spend a long time thinking that soul society in bleach is a fortified front and even though there were incidents here and there, nothing wrecked the whole place and then low and behold the quicies lay waste to the entire place.
Kinda like what is happening now in the clover kingdom
I don't have any more logical reasons but
my brain keeps insisting on the connection ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
I heard that Black Clover is based on a lot of popular mangas ', so I doubt you won't find many similarities
Usually, I despise the memory loss shitty thing and I find it to be the "twist" for the unwitty writers who have nothing better to add to the plot but I'm surprisingly not pissed at this !
I mean, imagine big mom going after Luffy at the same time as Kaido. He'd be toast so this is a weird change of events but I feel this is a major event that will contribute to Kaido's defeat. Just a hunch though but I mean come on, no one can honestly believe that nothing is going to happen when a yonko with a memory loss issue turns up at the place where Luffy and Kaido both are.
Shit is about to hit the fan, I tell you and I couldn't be happier. Honestly, since the Luffy vs Katakuri fight, things have been escalating so quickly and even when there is no major fight going on, other epic stuff happens (like everything with the revolutionaries in marie joie, the other kingdoms, that celestial dragon protecting shirahoshi, the cp0, Sahnks talking to those old dudes that are on the top of the world government, the not-so-emty-after-all throne, the thing that sat on the throne, the huge strawhat the thing has, the thing wanting Vivi for some reason and let's not forget Luffy's epic new bounty and its implication on how the marines will go after him from this point forward....)
Just awesome man! I love this manga so much
And don't forget the KAIDO IS A DRAGON moment...
The couple from chapter 6 are in the most unhealthy relationship that I've seen in a while. The seme has absolutely no redeeming qualities. He is lazy, a leech, a cheater and a sadist...not even the hot kind of sadist that enjoys a bit of punishment in bed. Just the garbage worthless kind of sadist who enjoys seeing the person that loves them cry in desperation and sorrow.
The uke has absolutely no self esteem. If you threaten to leave someone but never act on it, you're making a joke out of yourself. He is a wimp and I don't even pity him.
Garbage story and garbage couple.
I hated the common "cheating theme" in the previous stories as well but at least, even if the guy being cheated on was a wimp, he eventually left the cheater while in the last story this shit romanticizes cheating. 0/10
i really loved everything yo said the last story really leaves a bitter aftertaste .. i got pissed & triggered ..i really hate stories like this Plus that kind of seme & these doormat ukes makes me more triggered
Exactly!! I somewhat enjoyed the first and second stories but the last one angered me so much in so many ways. I felt I was almost getting an aneurysm from getting so pissed off with the story.
99% of the stories I read (mangas/webtoons, inkitt and wattpad stories) would drag the hell out of the situation and cause more misunderstandings so that the guy who confesses starts to think his feelings are unrequited so I was pleasantly surprised that the uke confessed the next chapter.
Right?! Hallelujah, Praise be, Thank you, and Amen!
ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
yup. That's why I'm crazy about this and have no complaint about the character. I really love the honesty of both main characters
I can't be the only one who was frantically searching the panels to see if my boy Katakuri came with the bog mom pirates or not. I'm kinda sad he didn't since I love him so much but I'm also relieved since they aren't going to get much action going right now so seeing him in the background devoid of all his epicness is a waste.
I don't think the mangaka is going to make an all out Kaido vs big mom war while Luffy and Law are there because they don't fit on either side so are they just going to hang around while the war is ongoing? This was proven by the appearance of this king guy who sunk their ship. Honestly, I'm surprised by big mom's attack, I totally didn't see that coming and I usually see 90% of action coming in mangas.
On another note, Kaido felt a bit out of character when he freaked out about the big mom pirates and how it'll be an all out war if they reach Kaido's kingdom. I mean, truthfully and rationally, he is 100% correct to be on alert and if it were another person, it would've been the perfect reaction to have but this Kaido: the guy who keeps attempting suicide without succeeding, the immortal strongest creature on the world so why is he acting like a regular ruler whose kingdom is being attacked? If anything, shouldn't he seek an all out war as a means of entertainment and hopefully an opportunity to die (even if he an't truly die, fighting with a yonko is as close as it gets to that)?
Finally, I think the mangaka is going to focus on characters other than Luffy in this arc (at least until the final big Luffy fight (?)) but for now, it seems like he is going to be compensating for the lack of screen time for Sanji since he didn't have a major fight in dressrosa nor in the big mom arc so I suppose it's his time to shine.
I don't hate other characters but I'd much rather just see the focus being on Luffy. I want to see if him and Kidd do something epic together and I especially want to see if the whole lot (Luffy, Law, Kidd) truly get to fight Kaido in this arc or will they just team up to run away...
So many questions...
Honestly, is the mangaka making the right choice by releasing the other manga about amourou's adventures at the expense of this manga?
I noticed that for the last few months, detective conan rarely gets updated and I wouldn't question it if it's a health issue because a person's health is most important but turns out the mangaka is favouring his new zero manga and when he works on it, he can't work on detective conan which was already getting too stretched and nothing major was happening here.
I don't know his and his peoples' train of thoughts but for me, Detective conan is the true work that he is known for and people stick to, this new work is just a spinoff and people would like it as extra chapters but not as a standalone manga. People are already complaining that detective conan is getting boring even with weekly chapters, so is it the right call to make those releases even more scarce? So instead of a tiny amount of action per week it becomes a negligible amount of action per month or couple of months?
I hope this isn't going to be forever because personally I don't give a shit about zero's manga. I don't actively seek it out and unless someone shares it on facebook or twitter, I don't even bother to google it.
Again, if the mangaka is sick or doing research for future cases then all is well and I hope he recovers if it's the former but if detective conan is taking second place after that "manga" then it pisses me off
It can be he is tired and have problem getting new ideas... and decided to do something else to refresh his mind, it happen a lot with writers and artists... specially a long manga like Conan...
I read zero and it is not my type of manga!!!
I suppose that is a possibility as well. It's understandable that such a long ongoing work would cause him writer's block and personally, despite how much I adore detective Conan, I would rather see him end it than drag it on if he has no new ideas. But maybe, even if he wishes to end it, he has contracts and too many things depending on it...
In a way, I understand the situation but I wish it was different. I see my favorite manga One piece, which, for me comes way on top of Detective Conan, and I see how the mangaka seems to be always enjoying himself and his work reflects it...I wish Aoyama-Gosho-sensei was the same. I hope that even though, personally, I hate the zero manga, he is at least enjoying himself and not being forced to do it just to make more sales.
I remember reading before about how the mangaka of fairy tail got too much pressure from both fans (who didn't want anyone to die in the manga which caused him to constantly alter the plot) and his management and he didn't feel very comfortable
Are those guys really the CP0? I mean their clothes suggest that but I find it hard to believe that people like Rob Luci are sent out for negotiations and I feel like he won't be so docile if someone blatantly threatens that which he believes in blindly (the whole justice system)
Ikr. Maybe this is the CP9 and not the CP0, but those clothes. Well, who knows.
I hope he really moves to be honest. This isn't just one of those "make him miss you and move on with your life so he realizes he loves you" sort of plot. But I think they're making no progress, if anything the sempai is treating him like a pet and is nowhere near getting over his love for the other guy. This isn't healthy for the guy that loves his sempai. He needs to find a life that doesn't necessarily revolve around his sempai.
I honestly don't care if they end up together or not because there is 0 chemistry there but what I care about is that he needs to be disillusioned and get his life together and stop being someone's pet waiting for their master to come home after fucking some random guy. That can't be a permanent lifestyle
Nothing has ever simultaneously sounded more ominous and exciting.
So to everyone who thought there was not going to be "a big battle" the mangaka just confirmed it. Now, what the hell is going to happen is another issue.
-Is big mom going to join Luffy, Law (and their rews) and Kidd all against Kaido and his army ?
- Is Luffy truly going to fight Kaido? What kind of fighting moves can he learn in 9 days? Will he awaken his devil fruit ? It'd be an improvement especially if he can see into the future but this is motherfucking Kaido !!
- What's with the guy who cut that woman? Normally I'd say he is as strong samurai guy who'll be up against Zoro eventually but I'm not even 100% sure he is a bad guy. There is just something about him that screams "honor and samurai code" and I know that bad guys an be honorable because they're "bad" just for opposing the protagonists but in this case, the samurais in there are traitors to their rightful ruler and conspired against him so none of them should speak of honor and the samurai way. It makes me think he is just there to gain that shogun's trust and he is truly loyal to Momonosuke and his team.
What's with the 9 days thing? Shit is hitting the fan right now and everything is in shambles so one would expect the final battle to be within an hour or 2 but 9 days???
