Fairy Tail Chapter 325: Eclipse Gate Is Opening

Comments:
Pretty decent chapter, a build up one but that's ok. I think that from this point things at least should be starting to shift pretty quickly and considering the set up I believe that we should be up for a ride.
This chapter actually made me doubt the future that we have been led to believe in. Future Lucy is of course dead so no more information for her, even though she didn't give much to think about anyway.

There are currently couple of mysteries present at the moment: Is the future of ten thousand dragons even true or is this all some kind of master plan of some entity? Also the whole Lucy shutting the Eclipse gate / Eclipse cannon thing seems a bit odd. Natsu said at the end of the chapter that he feels some kind of evil energy coming from Future Rogue. The whole setup of everything seems way too weird that it's pretty much impossible to make sense what's real and what is not, so like every time, only time will tell. For me it looks like the Eclipse Gate is already pretty much opened, so the "Lucy not allowing the Gate to be opened" was pretty much bogus, so this would mean that Future Rogue has some hidden reason to kill Lucy.

The last and the greatest mystery foe me is that who the hell is Yukino? I've been following every chapter of Fairy Tail weekly and I honestly don't remember anyone called Yukino so I'm pretty confused why she deserved a couple of pages in this chapter. Better check Fairy Tail wiki to be sure.

Recap of Fairy Tail Chapter 325: Union

-It's time for Natsu vs. Future Rogue, Lucy escapes from the scene.

-Meanwhile, Mirajane is yelling for Yukino, who she finds soon after.  Yukino seems to be angsting by herself and Mirajane goes to comfort her.

-Then the scene changes to the Eclipse gate and Princess Hisui is ordering her underlings to prepare the eclipse cannon for the Dragon's attack.

-Lucy, Wendy and the cats are hiding in the bushes near the eclipse gate. Arcadios orders them to show themselves.

-Lucy and her group explain the situation about Future Rogue etc. to Arcadios and Hisui.

-At the same time King of Fiore, Toma E. Fiora is explaining to Makarov the situation including about the ten thousand dragons. The king then asks for the help of the magic guilds in the upcoming battle.

-Finally the gate is opening, next chapter will be Natsu vs. Rogue.

Toriko Chapter 228: Immortal, Ageless Elg

Comments:
Pretty good chapter. Branchi is in my opinion getting surprisingly much attention in the manga, so I'm guessing that the author has planned some bigger role for him rather than just another chef fightning in this arc. His powers are without a doubt pretty cool, even though I've seen plenty of lightning abilities in several mangas and animes I'm certain that the author will be able to create something amazing with Branchi. I do think that he's as a character pretty good so it's in no way a bad thing for him to get some screen time.

Ageless Elg at this point seems to be pretty much impossible to defeat. I myself was thinking that if Branchi would slice him in half from where he is connected (fused) to the Herak Horse, maybe then would he be unable to regenerate, but Branchi did things a bit better and sliced him in thousands of small bits. Even then he regenerated into hundreds of bodies, but now I can't help but to wonder can he just multiply himself as much as he wants and what will possibly happen to the all the excess bodies of him? What a weird situation.

I am though excited to see what will be the outcome of this fight and how it is even possible to destroy Elg. I'd think that if he can't be killed then the only way would be to contain him in some way that he can't get out of there.

Recap of Toriko Chapter 228:

-Branch chief Elg is standing before Branchi, who's asking what the hell is he.

-Branchi hits him with lightning/electricity once more, turns around and we see Elg back up again.

-We get an explanation of Buranchis power, every cell in his body becomes like an 'amplifier circuits' for electricity. The electric potential difference has an average of 100 million volts and the amount of electric current that he releases is actually over 100 00 amperes.

-Elg should be dead after Buranchis Eleki Chop, but he still rises up and attacks Branchi.

-Elg then introduces himself as the eldest chef, "ageless Elg". He says that his body does not age and therefore will not die, he is immortal.

-Elg fused with a legendary mythical beast that lives in Gourmet World, the Horse King "Heraku", which is an ageless and immortal horse.

-Buranchi then generates himself inazuma houchou which means Lightning Kitchen Knife. He then smashes Elg into pieces, but Elg still manages to regenerate.

-Ageless Elg starts speaking once again and he says that he has lived for around 200 years, then we see that he actually regenerated all of the bits in which he was cut in into a complete version of him.

-Branchi is now in trouble, his batteries are depleted and he gets kicked by Herak kick.

-Toriko will be on break next week (shit).

One Piece 704 Spoiler

LATEST NEWS>> READ ONE PIECESPOILER 704 HERE

After reading One Piece Chapter 703, you must be impatient to wait for One Piece 704. If yes, you must be like me wandering around looking for One Piece 704 spoiler. However, there is no release of One Piece 704 spoiler yet. Expected of One Piece 704 release will be on every Wednesday, which is this coming Wednesday.

In the mean time here is my prediction of what coming next in One Piece 704 spoiler.

Sanji will follow the girl called Violet and protect her, but i'm sure Sanji will never kill anyone no matter what happen. But here is the tricky part, what happen if the man Violet wanted to kill is Joker? Not only Sanji but the whole team of Straw Hat, Law, and the samurai will oppose him. They have very solid reason to fight in that case,  I just cannot wait to read next One Piece 704 spoiler.

After separated with Sanji, Zoro will probably get lost his way and ended up at Fairies hiding place. Normally Fairies are cute and gentle, but I don't expect Oda will put such a simple story line in One Piece 704 spoiler. It will be fun if Zoro encounter brutal Fairies, and started a fight after being attacked by a gang of Fairies. The Fairies could be related with Joker, if no then the Firies is better to be an enemy with Joker.

On Luffy side, all the participants will acknowledge his strength after he defeated the Spartan in single blow. I really expecting something more in next One Piece 704 spoiler, something like the old man participating in the competition. After reading the One Piece chapter 703, I guess only Luffy from Straw Hat who will participate in the fight to win the Mera Mera Fruit previously owned by Ace.

I don't know where is the Samurai and Brook, they seems get lost and left behind of Sanji and Zoro. But i'm sure they are still running together. This team is getting far away from their mission on collecting information and finding the SAD Factory. Seems like only Franky knows what to do there, he has some plan and support Luffy to participate the fight. I guess we will get some picture of what happen to the other team in the next One Piece 704 spoiler. Law team should be getting close to meet with Joker by now. Let's wait for the One Piece 704 spoiler.

ThePower of Mera Mera Fruit, previously owned by Ace (Luffy Brother)

Naruto Chapter 625: Something Is Lacking

Comments:
Oh well, maybe I was expecting a bit too much from this flashback. The Hashirama which we saw when Sasuke, Orochimaru and their group revived the Hokages, is completely different from what we are seeing in the flashback. I really liked Hashiramas "presence", carefree and aloof but there is only a hint of that in the Hashirama that we are now seeing in the flashback.

Also, Kishimotos way of giving a reason for Uchihas hatred have pretty much been disappointing. Uchiha Itachis story was an excellent one, but Obitos and Madaras reasons for hatred have been in my opinion a bit lacking in a sense. Of course Obito seeing his good friend killing a girl he likes is a tremendous shock, but why does he ultimately want to destroy everything for that, not just Kakashi?

It may be that Madaras reason for turning around may be something more than what we have seen in this chapter, the only reason for his hatred seems to be his distrust of Senju, or Tobirama (and Tobiramas distrust of Uchiha) to be precise. I just hope that there's just more to it than just this, I feel that this flashback has been and is lacking just something. I hope that Kishimoto has figured what that something is instead of just showing us an slightly uninteresting story of how Konoha was formed.

Recap of Naruto Chapter 625: The Real Dream

-Madara has just made proposition to Hashirama to either kill himself or his brother Tobirama.

-Hashirama soon decides to kill himself for peace between Senju and Uchiha. He is about to hit himself with a kunai until Madara stops him saying that he believes Hashiramas resolution.

-Finally Uchiha and Senju join forces and they create the village, decide on the leaders name (which is Hokage, "fire shadow")  and on the village name, which is Konoha, Hidden leaf village.

-Soon after Hashirama and Tobirama talk with each other, Tobirama is still suspecting Uchiha being a risk to the village. They hear a rustle from nearby bush, Hashirama goes to check and finds the same leaf which Madara had when they talked on the cliff.

-In the next scene Hashirama has been chosen as the first Hokage of Konoha, he and Madara are talking at the place where the stone which needs to be deciphered with the sharingan resides.

-Hashirama says that Madara will most likely be the next hokage, but he disagrees and says that it will most likely be Tobirama, which will mean trouble for the Uchiha.

-They talk some more and Madara has come into a conclusion: he decides to leave the village and says that while he walks towards his real dream he will enjoy fighting with Hashirama. "Madara turns "evil"".

One Piece Parodizing Fairy Tail / Homage To Toriyama?

Eiichiro Oda parodizing Fairy Tail?
I think that based on the latest chapter I belive it's somewhat possible that Oda has decided to (more or less) subtly parodize Fairy Tail in One Piece.

Fairy Tail has just got out of a Tournament arc which didn't deliver to some the fans as they would have hoped. Even though it can't really be called a bad arc per se, this must have been a chance for Oda to make some comedy out of it since he most likely has been planning to make a tournament arc for a long time.

The most evident sign of this is of course in One Piece chapter 703 when Luffy is signing up for the tournament he almost spews out his real name but ends up using "Lucy" instead. Lucy just happens to be one of the main characters of Fairy Tail and the series just happens to be getting out of a Tournament arc. Also, there just happens to be some "fairies" who stole Zoros sword. I'm sure some people may think that this is just a coincidence, but I tend to think about Oda when he was either designing / drawing the latest chapter that he could not not have realized the connection that he was about to make. Whatever the reason these are the kind of small things which make reading good series just a little bit more enjoyable.

So why would Oda be compelled to make such minor notion? In Fairy Tail there has been a bit more evident resemblances regarding character similarities between One Piece and Fairy Tail.

First example is the resemblance of Gildarts Clive and Red-Hair Shanks, Gildarts happens to be the strongest mage of Fairy Tail and maybe one of the strongest mages in the whole series. Shanks however is considered as one of the strongest pirates in the world of One Piece and I have to say that they do look pretty much alike.

The second example is Bartholomew Kuma and Hoteye (Richard) of Oracion Seis. Both are huge and are for some reason or another holding a giant book near their chest in the same manner. They are however using different hands to hold their books so it may be too farfetched ;P.

Of course it is always possible for either of the authors to make these things unconsciously, but the most important thing is that it's not bad to do such things in my opinion. It brings a bit more to the fans who recognize this stuff and it's good as long as it's done in good manner as opposed to copying too straightforwardly.


Odas Homage to Akira Toriyama?

As a child, Oda has been influenced by Akira Toriyamas works greatly. I think that the most of the people have seen in the past couple of chapters that Luffy wearing the fake beard, sunglasses and the shirt really looks like Master Roshi from Dragon Ball. This one, I believe is almost certainly a homage to Akira Toriyama and it's very well done I might add.

One Piece Chapter 703: Shishishi, Nice To Meet Ya!

Comments:
A good chapter even though it was pretty much a build up one once again.

I really loved the ending of this chapter, especially Luffys huge bearded grin and the "shishishi, nice to meet ya" after throwing Spartan to the ground. He really did show that he's not just someone to mess up with. While I was reading the chapter I was actually waiting for him to use Color of the Conqueror, but this was really a much better way for him to show his 'superiority'. The Color of Conqueror would have attracted a bit too much attention and perhaps Luffy has enough brains not to do it. Of course it's possible that it wouldn't have worked against Spartan anyway.

We are finally seeing in which direction this arc is starting to go and so far I'm loving it. Oda is clearly staying with sure thing comedic and character trait based story line: Zoro getting lost, Sanji doing his funny women comedy etc. It seems though that the strongest teams object has been forgotten by everyone and that's really fine by me. This kind of solution works for me a lot better and I can't even hope to predict what's going to happen next as everything is still open.

At this point it feels that I'm very much hoping to see Luffy and the Corrida Coliseum stuff at this point as it seems the most interesting stuff at the moment. Of course depending on what the other strawhats are going to do next will most likely affect that pretty much, since there's of course always a meaning why things go like this each and every time.

So in this chapter nothing else really progressed except Luffy getting himself into a cool situation, the other strawhats getting drifting off to their own ways. I can't really say anything about Zoro at this point, but I really loved the way Sanjis 'path' is going. The comedy was pure gold and now that I think about it there really hasn't been this kind of relationship for him in the whole series. I think it's pretty much obvious that this girl Violet (Who I thought at first was Robin, they really look similar) is going to use him without feeling guilty, but nonetheless I'm sure that they together will provide some good comedic value and maybe this meeting has more deeper meaning than we can even anticipate at this point.

Recap of One Piece Chapter 703: Waiting Room

-Doflamingos underling is explaining to Luffy and Franky how Doflamingo got the Mera Mera Fruit.

-Luffy decides that he wants the fruit and immediately offers it to Franky, they then decide to go to the Coloseum.

-Meanwhile, Zoro is running after the fairy who stole his sword. Sanji is coming close behind him, stops and sees a dancing girl called Violet.

-Sanji being mesmerized loses sight of Zoro, but then suddenly Violet appears before him asking Sanji to hold her.

-It seems guards were after her because she stabbed a man. Soon after she tells that there's a man she wants Sanji to kill.

-At the same time Franky and Luffy are about to enter Corrida Coliseum when they see a toy soldier being chased by the guards. The toy soldier uses "jet walk" and gets away before explaining about the law of Coliseum. This One-Legged soldier is introduced as Thunderous Wrath Soldier.

-Luffy then goes to sign in to the competition and almost says his real name, but Franky stops him in time. So his contestant name and number is 0556 Lucy.

-Luffy enters the waiting room, there are lots of people warming up. We see someone who at least looks a bit like Lao-G doing Karate or something similar on a punching bag.

-One of the contestants, Spartan gets agitated because Luffy is just looking around. He tries to hit Luffy but Luffy grabs his arm and throws him strongly to the ground. "Shishishi, nice to meet ya!"

Trigun Maximum Review

Trigun Maximum continues from where the original Trigun manga ended. Two years after the events of blowing the crater on the moon, Vash finally continues his journey in which dangers are always present..

Art of Trigun Maximum isn't very good. The author manages to make most of the scenes with a good flow, but too often the action and the drawing starts getting so packed and it did distract me more often than I would have liked. I basically mean that when the action gets too rough, the author doesn't manage to pull through bringing the readers along with him, making them wonder what was going on again? There are some signs of improvements along the way as the manga was published for pretty long, over 7 years if I recall correctly?.

Characters of Trigun are understandably very likeable. Vash himself has a place in my heart as one of the first anime characters who I had pleasure of encountering (in form of anime, but anyways) when I was an early teenager. So the main character is a carefree man, with somewhat unknown history who can also get serious displaying unbelievable gunman skills. What's there not to like? As for the side characters most of the people who journey alongside Vash are those kind who I consider good. They don't do anything excessively and most of the time make their appearances worthwhile not counting a few exceptions. As for the villains I think that the author pretty much succeeded there very well. Triguns villain -scheme pretty much follow a traditional one where there are lots of minor villains, but I didn't think that there was anyone who would have disappointed me in any way. Villains were imaginative, most of them had reasonable motives and backstories, they were in general entertaining to read of.

Story of Trigun definitely deserves a lot of praise. Most of the characters and especially the main characters (including main villain) have such backstories which are very well designed and thought out. Story of Trigun can be summed up as a tragic story, which doesn't leave readers cold: characters aren't spared, Vash's ideals are constantly challenged while they are being revealed to the readers in bits and pieces. In the end of Trigun Maximum I could say that it was indeed more complex story than I would have thought at first and that raised the depth and the enjoyability of the series to the new heights.

In conclusion, I'd say that even if you had watched the anime, you should definitely read the manga also. They are somewhat similar in terms of characters and plot, but the manga version can be considered as many times more deep and satisfying as it opens up so much more stuff about the world, history and the characters than the anime could have done in it's shortness.

Magi Chapter 178: The Goal of Al Thamen

Comments:
This was definitely a good chapter and even though there was a lot of speaking present I wasn't too bothered about it since it was pretty important stuff regarding the history of the series.

I always though that it was in fact this worlds history where Solomon and all the Djinns lived with him, but to everyones surprise that place turned out to be another world altogether. This really makes me wonder how many years ago the events of Solomon making the new world and the war in Alma Toran happened since people don't seem to recall any of that who live in the present timeline. Lady Scheherazade said that she is almost three hundred years old, so it must have been very long time ago.

I believe that the Al Thamen is going to be more present in the series from now on. We have gotten only glimpses of the organization and their motives, but this chapter cleared pretty much of it. Their aim is of course to create as much black rukh as possible by bringing as much despair in the world as they can to form the "Dark spot" which sounds like an ultimate dark summoning or something like that. So all the countries which are about to go to war are actually helping Al Thamen in their mission and I think it's safe to assume that most of it is probably their doing.

So the chapter ended with the text "what will Mogamett do next", this could imply that Mogamett, watching all those dead magician could launch a counterattack against Reim. That would be a probable scenario in my opinion, but I think that we will be shown someone from Al Thamen subtly encouraging him to do it if it happens.

Recap of Magi Chapter 178: The Dark Spot

-Aladdin is afraid that Chancellor (Mogamett I presume) is going to realize Al-Thamen's wish

-If the Chancellor is hiding great quantity of black Rukh somewhere, it would be dreadful.

-Aladdin mentions of "Scene of Tragedy", which Lady Scheherazade recognizes. He starts telling about a story from another world which doesn't have a connection with the world they are living in.

-He tells that there were a lot of people living there and everything was put to an end because of a single war. The ones who caused the war was Al Thamen.

-So, The great magician, who was called King Solomon created the world where Aladdin and others live and guides most of the survivors there. The other world was called "Alma Toran".

-.Al Thamen wants to erase this new world where they live currently by turning the world into chaos with the help of the "Dark spot". Dark spot is a hole which is created by a great quantity of magoi and black rukh from which the incarnation of evil will eat the white ruk of the world.

-Aladdin has known all of this since Balbadd, since the history of Alma Toran's was shown to him through Solomon's Wisdom.

-Alibaba is understandably a bit angry because he wasn't told any of this.

-After they all board on one of Reim's ships Lady Scheherazade starts telling some of her history. She also tells that her real body is about to die.

-Suddenly, Reim and Magnostadt receive a message at the same time from the Kou empire... What will Mogamett do next?

Magi Chapter 177: The Clone of Lady Scheherazade

Comments:
So at this point it's pretty obvious that the war is pretty much over. Somehow I wasn't really surprised that this particular Lady Scheherazade was a clone, since we already had a clear understanding that she was capable of making clones of herself in one from or another. What I'm interested in seeing is what will become of Reim after she dies since she's essentially the leader of the whole Reim. Maybe it's possible for Mu Alexius to take command?

At the end of the chapter Mogametts back of the head seemed somewhat ominous, but I'm not going to speculate too much since I'm writing this a week too late, since the new chapter was released yesterday so I'm going to go ahead and write a recap and comments about that one now.

Recap of Magi Chapter 177: The High Priestess

-So, Alibaba has appeared in the middle of the battlefield to defend Aladdin

-Suddenly someone orders the army of Reim to retreat and it's no one else but Lady Scheherazade.

-They talk for a while and Aladdin convinces Lady Scheherazade to give up on attacking Magnostadt.

-The ships of Reim are seen to be going towards the sea

-Lady Scheherazade, Titus, Aladdin and Alibaba decide to talk on neutral territory, which is halfway form Magnostadt's shore and Reim's fleet.

-It's revealed that "Lady Scheherazade" who's before them is nothing else but one of real Scheherazades clones. She says her real body is 268 years old.

Toriko Chapter 227: Great Way Of Disposing A Bad Villain

Comments:
A great chapter, I'm really liking Toriko right now. Honestly I was expecting both Tommyrod and Sani being left alive, but thankfully the author actually has some balls to do such things which don't really sugar coat anything. I was pleased to seeing Tommyrod getting eaten by the Satan Hair since he was one of the worst villains in the series and I'm sure that the author has recognized that too. So in that way Tommyrod getting eaten and having nothing being left of him was a perfect way to dispose of him.

 
I think that we seeing Zebra after so many chapters is a message for the readers to wait for him to enter the battlefield. It's pretty much always good to see him doing his stuff which is basically about decimating everything, not to mention possible new skills and set of abilities that we'll be sure to be shown.

We also got a name for the secret organization which is gathering at the room, Neo.  Their aim is still pretty unclear, but it's clear that Neo is going to be somewhat a major player and is going to complicate the story of Toriko to some extent. I think it's somewhat good decision, since Toriko has been pretty much straightforward series which in some way has been pretty good decision, but I've missed the complexity which is present in the background of ie. One Piece constantly.

Aaand as expected Zaus indeed was alive, it would have been way too lame way for him to die there without anyone actually seeing anything. It seems that they are going to go after Setsuno and I'm sure that she's not going to have it easy for the chapters to come. At the end of the chapter the fat, beardy person of Neo is mentioning someone called Joa, I believe that him mentioning someone like that means basically that he's going to be somewhat major player in things to come.

Recap of Toriko Chapter 227: Outcome of the Duel!!!

-Sani vs. Tommyrods final clash is about to begin, Tommyrod is soon able to move.

-The arm that was strangling Sani was quickly eaten by the Satan Hair.

-The battle finally begins, Tommyrod is getting pierced by Sanis hair continuously, but Tommyrod manages to get a series of attacks in.

-The fight is however shortlived, Sani says farewell to him and engulfs him inside the Satan Hair leaving nothing in its wake. Sous Chef Tommyrod has died.

-Zebra is still sitting (waiting eagerly!) at the audience doing his sound stuff, helping the small fodder.

-The secret organization gathering at the room gets a name: The new food Utopia, Neo, who have infiltrated their members inside every major company of the world.

-Zaus is expectedly revealed to being alive and belonging to this organization.

-Someone called "Joa" is heading to the battlefield right now.

One Piece 703 Spoiler

One Piece 703 Spoiler is not out yet, please come visit us again from time to time. We will update to you the latest One Piece 703 Spoiler as soon as we got the One Piece 703 Spoiler. As for now you can jump to other post, we have many things about One Piece here that worth for you to look and read at.

Before the One Piece 703 Spoiler out, let us talk about the possibility of what happen in One Piece 703. From the last chapter, Luffy and Franky were inside the Collosseum together with the strong blind man. Though they didn't see each other yet, but I am very positive that both parties will join the fight. On the other side many people will fight for the sake of winning The Mera Mera Fruit formerly owned by Luffy's brother Ace.

In this discussion of One Piece 703 Spoiler, I think Law team will meet with Joker at the promised location. I expect they will start some fight there, Joker might able to overpower Law team but he has no chance to do it. Law is the kind of person who do proper plan before doing something big, I really cannot wait for the One Piece 703 from now on.

Yusop team as a guardian of their ship Thousand Sunny might face some trouble, like being invade by others pirate different team from Joker. I expect light fight on Yusop side, they should be able to protect their ship easily after 2 years of training. I keep thinking of what One Piece 703 chapter could bring to us.

I wonder what Zorro do in One Piece 703, will he able to retrieve the stolen sword or vice versa. I expect he will not able to follow where the so called fairies go. Instead of retrieving, Zorro will lost in the middle of the town but Sanji will save him haha. Just thinking of next chapter One Piece 703 really damn exciting, we are looking for One Piece Spoiler 703 hardly and post it here ASAP.

Naruto Chapter 624: Build Up Towards The End Of Flashback

Comments:
It's great to see that this flashback, as it really didn't meet my expectations, got pretty quick change of pace in this chapter where there was covered all the years between Hashiramas and Madaras childhood and the moment where the war is nearing its end.

I'm however uncertain that what will be the outcome of this certain proposition by Madara in which he wants Hashirama to either kill himself or his brother Tobirama. What we already know is that no one of those three dies here so it's somewhat a weird end for the chapter. I'd say that it somewhat gave me mixed feelings since it wasn't a cliffhanger per se, but I'm still interested in seeing in what kind of decision Hashirama and Tobirama will end up with.

In the end this chapter was a necessary bad, as it really didn't bring up anything that we didn't already know of, but still what I mean by necessary is that there has to be some chapters that bring continuation between the "goodies".

Still waiting for the actual reason why we are being shown this flashback - apart from couple of  "new" characters introduced I don't think we've seen anything which we haven't heard about before in Naruto. Sasuke wanted to know what is the village (and why his brother Itachi risked his life to protect it) so that he could decide whether to take revenge on Konoha, but after this week I'm starting to doubt if there's even coming any kind of good revelation. This whole flashback has turned out to be a bit too plain in my opinion, but I've still no given up the hope for something good to happen.

Recap of Naruto Chapter 624: Aiko

-So Uchiha and Senju clans clash at the beginning - Hashirama and Madara come into conclusion that it's useless to chase after the dream they had.

-As it's now revealed to Madara that Hashirama is in fact Senju, he decides that next time when they meet on the battlefield he's going to go all out. After saying that Uchiha Madara awakens his Sharingan.

-Over the years to come the Uchiha and Senju fight against each other, but Hashirama still tries to convince Madara to stop the fighting.

-Soon Madara acquired the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, which he got from his brother who died earlier. We are then shown Madara using his Susanoo for the first time.

-At the end of the chapter Hashirama tries to convince Madara for the last time to stop and straighten things out. Madara wants Hashirama to either kill himself or his brother Tobirama and only then will he trust the Senjus.

Pretty decent chapter, I'm pretty much satisfied with the turns of events, but not too excited to be honest.

We did get some new information in this chapter, Future Rogue explained to us about the two ways of using the Eclipse gates and that (Future) Lucy closed the gates or at least that's what he thinks happened. There's one reason why I like this 'twist' and that is that it really looks seemingly impossible for her to do such thing especially now that Rogue revealed that it's going to happen. It leaves a lot of room to speculation and I have to say that I really don't have the faintest idea what the real reason could be that the gates were closed.

I do hope that the conclusion for this isn't something too lame of an excuse for Mashima to have built up these events, but I like to stay somewhat optimistic even though Fairy Tail hasn't made really any excellent twists in the past. The most of the charm of Fairy Tail for me came from the obvious shonen qualities that the series has, but I'd hope to see more clearer character growth development. It's been a bit too shallow for a bit too long and I'm pretty much hoping to see some kind of change to that.

Regardless of that I'm interested in seeing where the story will progress from here and I'm very happy to see that the manga is in such place where so many possibilities are at hand and I can't really even hope to predict what's going to happen. It's always better to leave at least something behind curtains.

Now of course it's most likely time for Natsu vs. Future Rogue (I did actually mention in one of my previous Recaps that Rogue is one of my favorites in terms of abilities and would have hoped to see more of him: this is may be even more than what I hoped for ;), but what will happen after that will hopefully be interesting rising the series into new heights in terms of enjoyability.

Recap of Fairy Tail Chapter 324: The One That Closed The Gates

-So the Rogue from the future has appeared in front of Natsu and others.

-Hisui is about to open the gate and Jellal + his group are on their way to the castle.

-Rogue explains that there are two ways of using the Eclipse, one is to travel through time and other is to use it as a weapon (Eclipce Cannon). With the cannon they could defeat the ten thousand dragons. He also explains that seven(!) years from now the dragons will have conquered the world.

-He then says that it's Lucy Heartfilia who closes the gate and attacks her at the same time.

-Future Lucy however jumps in front of her taking the possibly fatal hit from the attacks. She says that she never closed the gates.

-Natsu punches Future Rogue strongly, he's crying and is promising to protect the future.

One Piece Chapter 702: A Tournament Arc!?

Comments:
Chapter 702 was pretty good, but not (understandably) amazing. Most of all it was almost a pure build up chapter where happened something which happens in basically every arc: Strawhats got split up again, it's pretty much the same pattern that we've seen in the past arcs, only the method for strawhats to go on their own ways is a bit different each time

So the Splits are: Zoro+Kinemon+Sanji and Luffy+Franky, somehow I like this set up, Franky and Luffy make a great duo in my opinion.

It's pretty interesting that the swindler got a direct order to cheat the samurai. Of course we already knew that the blind samurai is someone important and I think it was pretty expected that we wouldn't get to see who he is. He implied strongly that he recognized who Luffy is and I think it's somewhat obvious that basically the only reason for him to conceal his identity would be that he's part of the marines. Of course there could be a lot of imaginative ways why he wouldn't be linked to the marines, but I'll leave that to Oda.

Also it's interesting to see that Oda decided to "subtly" tell us that the Colosseum fights are to death: I think that his principle to not to kill people in One Piece has been shredded to pieces long time ago (ie. Monet dying). This gives a lot more unpredictability and gives Oda some freedom to do some rough decision with most of the characters.

I think that we haven't really seen a true tournament in One Piece, so this is somewhat refreshing to see: this Dressrosa arc looks very good so far and I really expect a lot from it.

Recap of One Piece Chapter 702: The Corrida Colosseum

-The amazing blind swordsman (Zatoichi) has just made his huge hole in to the ground, the strawhats are wondering what ability he has.

-He offers to pay for the damages to the owner and is heading out, the owner seems to recognize him and then Luffy asks him who he is.

 -The blind swordsman says that it's unwise for both of their sakes to tell Luffy who he is.

-Suddenly people in the bar are realizing that some of their stuff is gone and so is Zoros sword Shuusui, which is the sacred treasure of the wano country. One of the toys says that it's fairies handy work.

-The fairies are said to be invisible and have been revered as deities in Dressrosa. Zoro then hears something and sees that his sword is being taken out of the window but go stuck.

-Zoro runs after it and Sanji + Kinemon follow him. Luffy tries to go along, but Franky stops him.

-So the swindlers who were taking the samurais money were in fact one of Doflamingos men.

-The presenter in the coloseum presents aces Mera Mera no Mi and says that it goes to the winner. The best of the best of New World have been assembled in the colosseum.

-Presenter introduces Donquixote Family's fighters: Senor Pink, Dellinger, Lao G, Machvise, and Mister Diamante.

-In the last panes Luffy finds out that Aces devil fruit is a prize in the tournament.

Read One Piece 702 Here

I just finished reading One Piece 702, I read it again and again for few times because it was fun and enjoyable reading it. Things has just become more interesting with the appearance of more powerful characters. On the title it says The Corrida Colloseum, it refers to a place of fighting competition that can kills people. But of course the reward is also must be very rare and super valuable.


The One Piece 702 begin with all people including Luffy gang were astonished with the old blind mad ability to take down Joker's underling. His power causes big hole and a sum of damage on the casino. After paying the damage fee at the counter, the blind old man leave the place and no public are trying to stop him. Luffy likes strong people, he asked what is the old blind man name after seeing such power. Luffy gang believe he has an ability of Devil Fruit, but they are not sure what kind of Devil Fruit it is.

Suddenly most of them are losing something precious, some of them losing money, jewelery, and other important thing belong to them. Zoro also lost his sword, he become angry about it but he manage to sense where his sword is being taken away. He run to pursue his sword followed by Sanji and the Samurai of Wano. Luffy tries to follow but stopped by Franky, Franky smells something is bad and come up with a plan to dig more information.

Luffy and Franky tries to investigate one of Joker's underling, to find where about the Smile SAD Production Factory. Sadly the underling doesn't know anything about it, he told Luffy and Franky to go to the Colloseum. Something is big happening there, there is a competition being held and all the opponents are from Donquixote Family.

The winner will get the most wanted prize, it belongs to a legendary man who can burn anything and also Head of Second Fleet in Whitebeard Crew. The prize is none other that the Mera Mera Devil Fruits previous owner Ace. Luffy is there also, he is shock knowing that his Brother's devil fruit is being auctioned as the main prize to the winner who won the battel.

The chapter ends there, I think in the next chapter Luffy will enter the battle to win the competition.

Shin Angyo Onshi / Blade Of The Phantom Master Review

Shin Angyo Onshi (Or "Blade Of The Phantom Master) starts off with Munsu, being one of the rare if not the only Angyo Onshi in the world. Angyo Onshis are people who exist mostly to punish corrupt government officials and lords. However the country of Jushin, from which these Angyo Onshis originate from has been destroyed and it's all somehow linked to Munsu...

Art of Shin Angyo Onshi is excellent to be short. At the beginning of the manhwa I wasn't too impressed, it seemed to me that the author was somewhat looking for his style, but after like a dozen of chapters I was completely sold. Shin Angyo Onshis art definitely has everything that I enjoy in a series: well designed characters, battles and especially the sceneries. In the span of the series we'll get to see almost every kind of sceneries which include snowy mountais, forests and even caves and they all look absolutely astoundishing. Characters all look good, easily memorable and have pretty much great art designs.

Characters of the series are also worth praising. Munsu, the main character of the series is a bit complex and at the same time very interesting character. People often describe him as an antagonistic hero and I have to say that they aren't wrong. I loved the way how he was designed not to beat the enemies with sheer power but by being very cunning, deceiving and like that surprising both the "bad guys" and the readers as well! What I also found very pleasing was that throughout the series there really wasn't any clear definition of who's bad and who's good so the characters had to really flow with the story and change accordingly: this absolutely brought more depth to the story and especially to the characters. In the whole series I basically loved every character except one, but he fortunately didn't get too much screen time and in the end didn't really bother me too much.

Story at first when I started reading seemed very shallow to me. The first chapter is indeed designed very well and gives some sort of hint what's about to come in terms of deceiving the opponents and the readers, but it can also be deceiving in a sense of looking a bit too shallow to the reader. I really though that Munsu would of course be using his Mahai to basically destroy everyone, but thankfully the author really had a good sense of quality in terms of designing the fights to come. I wasn't too pleased at first, but when I read several more chapters the story every time managed to surprise me with it's depth and incredibly good story designs which didn't leave me cold.
As the series progresses it's easy to see that it has very much depth and it offers immensely huge value to the readers in terms of story flow and story telling. What really did please me was that the author really took his time explaining all the things and didn't really leave any or much to the interpretation for the reader. In some cases this could be considered as a flaw, but the story of Shin Angyo Onshi was complex enough that in my opinion it didn't really need such thing: the twists that it presented to me were certainly enough to keep me amused.

Conclusion: Shin Angyo Onshi is nothing short of a masterpiece. I was pretty much stunned how I had missed it until this point and how people aren't really talking about it, because it was a lot better than some of the series which get somewhat weirdly much attention. I'd have to say that I really does very well in every possible way, but even though I recognize a masterpiece when I see one, I didn't really get that overwheling feeling as I finished the series. This may have nothing to do with the series itself, but the timing in which I read it, so I'm going to hold on and reread this some other time and then maybe upgrade it to the five star rating - if some series deserves it it would be this one. Meanwhile I'm going to leave it at 4.5, I'd give 4 and a 3/4 stars if I could though.
