Fairy Tail Chapter 437 Review - Magnolia

Written by Shiggins

Hiro Mashima-senpai, you did well.

The double-chapter weeks are over for now, and Hiro Mashima can rest. Well, "rest" to Mashima means one chapter per week instead of two. He loves to work and we love to read. Everybody wins, so you people better be buying his volumes when they are released! He earned it, baby! ...Oh yeah, I'm meant to be reviewing this chapter!

Lucy: Wendy, don't talk to me. I'm angsting right now! It's a serious time for me.

Bleach 627 Review – The Creation

Written by: ClayDragon

Apparently, it takes a very long time to get to the Spirit King’s Palace, as Ichigo and his gang are still in the box on their way up. Yoruichi asks them if they’re all ready to fight, only to get a less-than-positive reaction from Yukio, who says in no uncertain terms that he’s not going to leave the box. This annoys Ganju, who starts calling Yukio selfish and saying that he should be putting in the same effort as everyone else.

Who remembers filler characters? Anyone? Well, it’s not surprising if you don’t. Since most filler characters never have a large impact on the plot due to their very nature, it can be easy to simply ignore the fact that they exist. However, there are a number of non-canon characters that, on occasion, are equally as good as any canon character. Acting as something of a sister list to our Top 10 Non-Canon Anime Storylines, this list highlights the best non-canon characters out there.

Fairy Tail Chapters 435 & 436 Review - Shout of Victory & Memoirs

Does Mashima-senpai read my reviews?

Seriously, I feel like he read a comment I made ages ago about Acnologia and has decided to fix it to shut my stupid mouth up. Maybe I truly have the power to change the way of the manga, like some sort of omnipotent God. If so, I must only use this power for good! For character development and for as much cleavage as possible! (Prays for the return of Jackal.)

This picture is so goddamn cool, that it almost makes me forget about how shit the last film was.

Filler is a funny thing. On one hand, if it’s done right, it can bring more enjoyment to an already good show. However, if it’s done wrong, many people get sick of it and stop watching the show altogether. For this list, we’ve taken a look at the best filler out there, although we have expanded our definition of ‘filler’ slightly. In this case, we’ve looked at storylines in an anime series that weren’t in the original source material, regardless of their length (although they do have to be at least one episode long). Be sure to check out our Top 10 Non-Canon Anime Characters list as well!

Bleach 626 Review – The Holy Newborn

Written by: ClayDragon

So after last week’s Best Reunion Ever, the gang are ready to ride their glorified elevator up to the Spirit King’s Palace, with Yukio having the honour of pressing the button. As they begin moving upwards, Yoruichi tells them that when they briefly fought Yhwach before, she had planted another stake at the top of the Palace, and that (provided the Quincies haven’t noticed it) they should arrive completely undetected.

Fairy Tail Chapters 433 & 434 Review - Ikusatsunagi & Crumbling Fist

Written by Shiggins

I officially dub this "The Goku Stage".

If you're a fan of Dragon Ball Z, you'll know exactly what I'm referring to. Natsu and the gang have gotten to the point where even formidable opponents most characters would have trouble with, are nothing compared to the hero. Which means that the only way for them to get a challenge is for the greatest villain the series has had so far to appear. And before you ask, this week did NOT give us that villain.

Woah! Was Juvia always drop-dead gorgeous like that?

I’m back, Grimmjow’s back, Nel’s back, Riruka and Yukio are back, everyone’s back! I do apologise for taking such a long hiatus, but since my exams are over now I’ll be able to continue the weekly reviews instead of being productive and looking for a job. Normal service has been resumed!

I apologise for subjecting you to more of my reviews.

Fairy Girls Chapter 1 Review - The 4 Fairies

Written by Shiggins

The final spin-off!

Yes, after so many months of waiting the final review for the final spin-off is here! We had Fairy Tail Zero, Ice Trail, Blue Mistral and now Fairy Girls. To be honest, a series I cringed at hearing the instant I discovered about it, mostly because I didn't see the need for a spin-off like this. Basing a spin-off on Lucy, Erza, Wendy and Juvia when you've got so many other characters who don't get time in the main series is almost like giving a spin-off to Ichigo and Uryu from Bleach... while Bleach is still going on! There must have been a better choice to host a spin-off! Nevertheless, it's here and I'm going to review the first chapter. Is there anything noticeable about it, considering my opinions on Ice Trail and Blue Mistral? Well...

I'm finally done with these spin-offs!

Fairy Tail Chapters 431 & 432 Review - My Sword Is... & Briar in Love

Written by Shiggins

THE BITCH CHEATED ON ME!

You know what? I don't care anymore! Avatar suck a fat one and I wouldn't want to be associated with someone from that Guild! There will be better Guilds to share my heart to and I don't need you, Briar! Sigh, and just when I was ready to love again too.... Anyway, new chapters are here and like I said earlier, Avatar are not exactly the pinnacle of villainy. In fact, I'm embarrassed for them.

I always like seeing manga pages coloured like this. Even if it does piss me off when it's not coloured in the paperback... (rant rant grumble grumble)
