A new series that I’ll be blogging on! (mainly because Shippuden murdered me T^T)

Ok…so I haven’t be around for a little while…allright a LONG while. I finally managed to get a banner, if you can call it a banner that is(image by Kalico and tAtEkAnE….yep, it was originally a wallpaper >.<).

And now, about this new series that I’ll be blogging….Shijō Saikyō no Deshi Kenichi A.K.A History’s Strongest Disciple Kenichi. The story’s about Kenichi Shirahama, your average 15-year-old-weakling. Nicknamed “Weak Legs” by his classmates, he gets bullied a lot…that is, until a blonde haired babe named Miu Furinji with boobs the size of cannon balls crashes into Kenichi’s life who makes Kenichi join the Ryōzanpaku dojo – a dojo full of crazy yet super-strong martial arts masters. And so Kenichi’s story begins….

Yeah, I haven’t watched Shounen in quite a while. Feels nice blogging on a shounen series after such a loooong time. Too bad I have 35 episodes to catch up with…it’ll probably be over by the time I do(considering the fact that there are 3 more episodes to go T^T).

Yes it’s here. No I’m not joking. After about 80 odd episodes of horrendous fillers, the plot finally reverts back to the manga storyline. Shippuden is born!

Firstly, when I was desperately waiting for Dattebayo to finish subbing the episode, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw ‘Naruto Hurricane Chronicle Episode 001(XVid) avi’ on the Scarywater tracker……BY SD PROJECT!!!! That’s right folks, SD Project will be subbing Shippuden from now on and they seem to be doing it faster than even Dattebayo with their super-release speed ^_^

The episode starts out rather dramatically with Naruto and Sakura having found Sasuke. I personally didn’t like the way they started out…I mean showing that scene now is a complete spoiler….oh well. For non-filler watchers like me, you needn’t worry since the plot can be followed even if you stopped at episode 135. Anyways, Sasuke plans on killing Naruto and at the same time, the Kyuubi inside Naruto’s body urges him to release his seal. However, Sasuke manages to see into Naruto’s inner mind with his Sharingan and dispels the Kyuubi. And then the opening video starts rolling.

I quite liked the OP though the ED was better in my opinion(but i wanted Toshiro Masuda T_T). For a one hour special, this episode was pretty dragged with lots of scenes which weren’t in the manga as well as a few changes(Temari and Shikamaru being introduced beforehand). Overall it was a nice episode and nostalgic as well. The plot finally starts progressing forward with the Akatsuki organisation comprising S-ranked shinobi on the move searching for ‘Jinchuriki’(term to be explained later in the anime). The Sunagakure with their new Kazekage(who could it be?) tighten security due to the impending danger of Akatsuki. A new duo from Akatsuki soon arrive….a hunchback(Sasori) and another member who’s fighting style is ‘a work of art’(Deidara). Sasori mentions something about a ‘Jinchuriki’ being in Sunagakure….hmmmm….

Well the plot STARTS progressing, but it barely progresses in this episode. I guess Deidara’s not a girl then….>_<

Animation was pretty good though there were quite a few squiffy scenes which stood out. I didn’t like that whole keyword thingy though, it seemed pretty bland if you ask me. And then of course, there’s the preview for the next episode:-

Yeah, the plot will progress slowly for quite a while so bear with it. But rest assured, there’s gonna be two GRAND fights soon so just sit tight! A lot of people who bashed Naruto have decided to start watching Shippuden….well I’m sure they’ll start liking it as soon as the main fights begin! I’m currently trying to inject myself with a tranquillizer to keep sleeping till next week…I can barely wait! Narutards, old and new alike….NARUTO IS BACK!!!

Full Metal Alchemist(Hagane no Renkinjutsushi) is an ongoing manga series written by Hiromu Arakawa which is published every month in the Monthly Shonen Gangan. Both the anime and manga have been major successes in Japan(though the anime later deviates from the main storyline).

Full Metal Alchemist is set in the fictional world of Amestris where the scientific use of alchemy is widespread. It goes a step further than the definition of alchemy we’re familiar with. In this world, alchemy is widely used for transmuting matter from one form to another through the use of transmutation circles and is not limited to the transmutation of any metal into gold. The underlying principal in alchemy here is the Principle of Equivalent Trade which is “in order to gain something, it is imperetive to produce something of equal value”

The story revolves around two boys, Edward and Alphonse Elric who embark on a journey to obtain the mystical Philosopher’s Stone which is said to make transmutations possible free from the restriction the underlying Principle of Equivalent Trade.

If you’re a fan of the FMA anime then it is recommended that you read Arakawa-sensei’s original work since the manga is much better than the anime(which soon deviates from the manga storyline).

Another interesting chapter worth the week’s wait

I’ve uploaded the chapter to FileUL for you guys to download. It’s MQ scanlated by Shuyinsan and was originally on Homeunix’s site. Download it here.

Shikamaru continues to amaze us again and again with his new techniques, though I had already guessed that he wouldn’t die so easily. That too, he was the one who figured out Hidan’s technique and as if he’d fall for Hidan’s religious ceremony thingy after watching Asuma getting killed by it.

And Kazuzu having five hearts is just…weird XD

Another of my favourite mangas…rather this is the manga series with which I started my manga obsession. Once again, like Bleach, I will start posting from the latest chapter mainly owing to the lack of time and also it would take a loooooong time to make up for the backlog.

Unless you just learned what ‘anime’ means a few days back, you’d probably have atleast heard of Naruto. In case you don’t read the rest of the article.

Naruto is a manga series written by Masashi Kishimoto which revolves around 13 year old Uzumaki Naruto who wants to become the Hokage(highest rank a ninja can obtain) of his village Kononhagakure. Now, long time ago a giant nine-tailed fox , the Kyuubi(nine tails) had attacked Konoha village. It was defeated by the protector of the village, the Fourth Hokage who gave his life to get rid of the Kyuubi. He used a sealing technique(Fuuinjutsu) called “Hakke no Fuuin Shiki”(Eight divination signs seal style) to seal the evil Kyuubi in a newborn baby who was none other than Naruto. Naruto grew up to despised by the villagers because they considered him to be re-incarnation of the demonic Kyuubi itself. Later on, Naruto is finally accepted into society under circumstances(read from the first chapter ) and continues to pursue his goal of becoming the Hokage.

I’ve decided to host chapter 257 on filespider for now…don’t have any more hosts with unlimited storage time TT_TT

Released two days ago by Manga7(I know I’m late XD), grab it here

Anyways Ishida continues fighting against Arrancar no. 105(fallen Espada), Chiruchi who uses highly vibrating ‘feathers’ for battle and a surprise waiting towards the end of this chapter is when Ishida draws out a sword and slashes one of those feathers in half (x.x). Pesshe is hilarious as usual in this chapter, but oh man, I really wish that they’d start fighting the REAL espadas soon…I mean this is really getting lame, waiting one week for a filler-style battle. Anyways, let’s all have faith in Kubo-sensei ^_^

Ooooh I’m in such a bad mood today I could use Pesshe’s Infinite Slick on a certain person…..-_-#

Was this really necessary? Lol.

I think almost everybody reading this post will know what Bleach is. But just in case you don’t know, Bleach is about 15 year old Kurosaki Ichigo whose life takes a turn when he encounters a shinigami(=soul reaper, lit. god of death) by the name of Kuchiki Rukia. Ichigo is bestowed with shinigami powers and has to know fulfil the role of shinigami, to send good spirits to heaven and destroy the evil spirits or Hollows.

Sadly I won’t be writing the summaries of the previous chapters and will be starting with chapter 257(latest) mainly because of the lack of time due to my upcoming final exams. Really sorry about this guys (TT_TT). In case you’re new and have no idea what Bleach is about, you can download high-quality manga scanlations from www.bleach7.com . I’ll get the 257th chapter summary as soon as possible, most probably by tomorrow ^_^

I didn’t put it on this post because it looked all scrambled XD

Enjoy.
