  1. Think my next manga purchases are going to be Vinland Saga (apparently it's like a much more mature One Piece, sounds good to me!) & Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (both hardcover omnibuses). The Origin was recommended to me even though my only Gundam experience came from the Gundam Wing dub on Cartoon network. I've read some reviews/impressions and it sounds good. The quality of the book as a whole is quite impressive (youtube video).

     

    What do you think about buying The Origin, @Debug Mode?

  2. THAT S.O.B TOOK HIS EYE! I demand vengeance!

     

    Did not see that coming. Also looks like Sakura could be in for a world of hurt in the next chapter.

     

    That was a good chapter, but the last few pages with Kakashi just made me laugh.

     

    Like seriously, we all know he's exhausted and extremely vulnerable, yet an experienced Jonin has his back turned on a dangerous battlefield towards Madara!?

     

    There could only be one explanation to this...

     

    What everyone saw:

    Kakashi recuperating

     

    What my messed up imagination saw:

    Kakashi reading Jiraiya's Make-Out series in public!

     

    If that wasn't enough we get some super-speed-high-efficiency-eye-transplant-surgery from Madara to top it all off. What happened to the long process that Sasuke went through to get Itachi's eyes (unless I'm forgetting something)?

    Who needs Specsavers when there are Sharingan eyes ripe for the picking?

     

    So yeah, I found that funny. Maybe Sakura & Obito will provide me with some more comedy in the next issue.

     

  3. Also, the foreshadowing is pretty damn godly

     

    You're going to see more of that epic foreshadowing in this arc as well! :awesome:

     

    So...any other animes you guys would recommend? Something in the vein of Naruto and OP, action and adventure that is...

     

    Like Kav suggested:

    Hunter X Hunter 2011

    Seriously, this is top tier stuff. No filler, no plot-holes, great characters with even greater character development all wrapped inside a truly excellent story that looks cheery and fun-filled at first, but has a much darker core when compared to similar adventures like One Piece/Naruto. The only problem with the series is the inconsistent art and the constant hiatuses.

    In the manga the art ranges from rough sketches (sometimes this was due to his illness) with no effort, detail, background art etc....

    To great...

    Trust me, there are MUCH better examples than this, but they're far too spoilery.

    Hunter X Hunter only started a year after One Piece yet it's over 400 chapters behind due to Togashi putting the series on hiatus on a number of occasions, but having said that, the manga is returning from it's most recent break (over 2 years) to Weekly Shonen Jump on June the 2nd. Yoshihiro Togashi is an excellent story teller and it's great to finally see him back (and this is coming from a new fan :p)

     

    Roughly 300 chapters have been expertly condensed into 126 episodes for you to watch so far. The animation is fluid, the soundtrack matches the series really well and the voice actors are fantastic.

     

    Madhouse as a whole have done a marvelous job in staying true to the manga while giving us one of the most consistent shows I have ever watched. I highly recommend it.
