AWKWARD ZOMBIE

The cool kids part
Yeah Part 4 is really good. I don't really know which parts are my favourite since everything's so good.

So apparenty the Titans aren't so bad once you get around the whole part where they're trying to eat you. Who'd have known?

Lent my aunt a bunch of Jiro Taniguchi manga. When I tried to show her a Junji Ito manga (Black Paradox) she went "Hell no" really really fast.

Of course, that's why part 1 is best.



So this night, I watched all 17 episodes of Attack on Titan. Good god I'm just consuming things at the moment. I really want to know how it continues, but I don't want to switch reading the manga after being exposed to that superior quality art direction of the anime.

new TV anime to air in 2014 called Wizard Barristers

it's about like magic courtrooms or something

directed and with character design by the big dog Yasuomi Umetsu (Kite, Mezzo Forte)

cccrazy action and most likely rape but it's on TV so maybe not

I can get behind that cccrazy action.

another masterpiece from arms

I vaguely remember something about Umetsu being held hostage by arms, due to a contract or something idk

At least they're letting him make masterpieces again

I got an iphone a while back to replace my old phone, so I decided to check out all of the apps they have for buying manga. I'm pretty impressed with how inexpensive Viz has made their digital volumes, as well as their Weekly Shonen Jump. They really want to provide a better service than scanlation sites, and it shows; their edition of Shonen Jump seems to have caught up to the Japanese version, so now everyone gets the same chapters on the same day.

Ahhhhhhh, fuck you latest Blue Exorcist chapter!

Shima finally gets a moment to shine, he's badass as fuck with a familiar that BURNS THE SOULS AWAY WITHOUT HURTING THE PHYSICAL BODY, there's shipping moments with Izumo, the plot to kidnap her is foiled, fuck you Takara, no one even liked you, and then WHAM. He's the fucking spy and this was all a ploy? I just... how? He was part of a monastery until he went to True Cross, how is he working for the Illuminati? This has to be some shape-shifting/possession/SOMETHING going on or else this is going to feel so out of left field for everything.

WHY CAN'T NEXT MONTH COME SOONER?

Maybe it'll turn out that he has family or friends being held captive by the Illuminati and he's being forced to do this. However , the look on his face at the end of the chapter is much too confident.

The thing that gets me is that he has a demon familiar that no one seems to know about. Koneko and Bon don't seem to think much of him running away or not summoning it during things like the Impure King incident, so they probably don't know, but how wouldn't they? Shima doesn't seem to be the one to hide this (he pretty much hates pressure and conflict), least of all from his best friends, and it especially seems weird that he'd willingly weild the power to burn souls away but thinks Rin's bad for being the son of Satan with a similar power (then again, he eventually came to Rin's side and much sooner than others like Koneko).

I just don't know. There's a lot swimming around and the mangaka is terrible for leaving that there.

I've come to realize that a lot of mangaka are terrible about thinking things through and just want to have some kind of twist or they get some small detail you missed from the earlier chapters and use that to put said twist into perspective.

There's also the whole "being talentless" thing, though I dunno if that applies to Blue Exorcist's guy
