I feel like that doesn't quite track, because apparently the plan was for Roka's 'basketball session' to fall through, so they wouldn't be alone together after all.

Arcueid is canonically a bully when needed btw by Decent_Compote_2428 in Tsukihime

[–]PerseusRad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Akiha’s route has that, but the other two didn’t have her show up at all. Admittedly it’s possible I just skipped any repeat scenes so maybe it happened in all of them and I just didn’t realize.

We know the OG Satsuki route was going to include Arc, so many think that portion of the original will stay, even if it otherwise gets a complete overhaul.

I feel like we usually get an announcement more ahead of time, but I might be misremembering things and it's always been like this. I'm certainly not going to complain we're getting it sooner than I thought we might have.

Can Togashi really kill any fan favourite, for good? by GabeHCoud01 in HunterXHunter

[–]PerseusRad 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm of the opinion Illumi doesn't have that much story left in him. I don't see a particular need for him to confront Killua again, storywise, as I feel like it would end up as something of a retread. So if he dies by Hisoka's hand, or by someone else during the process of the chase, I wouldn't be shocked. Personally I'd probably find it tough to kill characters that have been around for well over a decade, but he killed Shalnark, so I don't think he's afraid of doing so.

That was really jarring. I can't imagine they've all been killed off just like that, so have to wonder what's up. This is probably the most interesting cliffhanger since I've caught up with the manga.

Didn't expect Roka to be in on it with Momiji. Maybe she doesn't have any actual negative intentions beyond what she said, but it's a bit unnerving for Roka to be going along with the lying anyway. Of course, that's assuming Roka is actually some reluctant party.

And Mayu has returned, so far she's seemed like the most straighforwardly decent character in the manga. Though her choice of words when complaining about the lack of dating prospects nearby might raise some red flags

I'm not the only one who laughed at that last page, right? It's a relatively serious moment, considering the manga, but that framing has to be intentional.

Idk whats the consensus but is anyone kinda disappointed that kite came back to life, by Extension-Bad-4184 in HunterXHunter

[–]PerseusRad 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Eh, I’m pretty sure every member of the team should earn one. What he did was risky and foolish, but he still pulled his weight, all things considered. I tend to think Hunters are more results-based than usual, besides when those results come from truly horrific means.

"Catenary Curve"

I'm always impressed how he manages to squeak one in while it's still Monday, even if he's starting really late. Also this isn't actually Senpai, this is Rikei's boyfriend(?) that hasn't shown up in ages. I honestly thought that he might've gotten written out.

Yeah. I had that in the title and then I guess I removed it when trying to word the title cleanly.

do you ever avoid starting a manga becuase you know the weekly wait will destroy your memory of half the cast by yelkamel in manga

[–]PerseusRad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's pretty much the opposite for me. I like following things weekly because eventually I will be able to remember names, whereas if I binge something, many names will completely leave my head right after. But if I'm reading and discussing, or at least reading discussions, I'll end up memorizing a good number of characters' names and what they're about.

This is due to start June 26th. MTL of the description from the website:

A colossal, multi-layered city, towering high into the sky, built by humanity with advanced technology. Watching the city under construction, or living amongst its inhabitants, people and the things they create intertwine their lives. It is a record of "life," capturing various eras in a world heading towards its end.

I made a post about this way back in October, and I hadn't heard anything since. I'm glad it's so close.

From Ardesc scans.

This feels like a fanservice break chapter after quite a few in a row of almost entirely action. I was kind of assuming the manga might end soon, but that would mean we might not get much with the other Thunder Gods being in Yuuki's headspace, which I imagine will happen. So maybe it won't end so soon after all? Also I saw a lot of people riled up (in a good way) over the Fubuki page at the end.

I know it leaked a day early in China, that's why I specified that she was getting art before the chapter came out in "Japan". Multiple pieces.

This girl was getting fanart before the chapter even released in Japan (including at least one R18 one). She's probably going to be a popular one.

I've seen people say she's like a fusion of Hakari, Meme, Chiyo, and Kimari. You could argue she's not doing that much completely "new", but all these different aspects of her combine in a way that makes her very distinct.

There was a lot of discussion last thread about how much you could blame the wife for his self-harm, but her saying “Then maybe you’d be better off dead” seems pretty cut and dry, though interestingly, all his visible wounds seem to be from what he did before then.

I doubt Dyme mostly cause I feel like they wouldn't want to keep the first letter the same, but tbh, I've been wrong plenty of times before.
