Bleach Update

Bleach Manga Update

Written by: ClayDragon

If anyone has been wondering what's been happening with Bleach lately, allow me to fill you in.

For whatever reason, Tite Kubo has decided to take a long break, effectively putting Bleach on hiatus for a number of weeks. Whether it's because he's going on holiday, having a mental breakdown, or just so that he can annoy his fans, the bottom line is that there will be no Bleach (and therefore no Bleach reviews) until the end of the five-week hiatus.

This public service announcement is Urahara-approved.

Wolf’s Rain Anime Review

Wolf’s Rain Anime Review

Written by: ClayDragon

Not quite paradise, but it comes close.

Wolf’s Rain is a strange show. For a start, the 30-episode anime was made first, with a manga adaptation following. It tells the story of a pack of four wolves, as they search for a plant called the Lunar flower which will lead them to paradise. Oh, and the world is entering a nuclear winter due to fallout from a massive war, there’s a wolf hunter after the pack, and an insane noble is trying to find and claim paradise for himself. Fun times.

I can't tell which is which, either.

Fairy Tail Chapter 345 Review - The Little Champions

Written by: Shiggins

Better than last week but still so bored.

As expected, this week began with some humour with Erza checking her young body out. Of course, she has a bit of a freak-out when she has a look at her chest and between her own legs. (If you can't figure out why, then you are far too young for this blog.) After having trouble adjusting to her new body and rolling down a hill, she pictures some of the problems that could come from being such a short kid.

And So We See Erza "Falling Down" To Wendy's Standards.

Baccano! Anime Review

Baccano! Anime Review

 Written by: ClayDragon

Immortality in the 1930’s. What’s not to love?

Baccano!  (Italian for "ruckus" or "commotion") is one of those shows that no-one seems to have heard of, which is a shame, as it’s one of the best anime series I’ve ever seen. It started as a series of light novels written by Narita Ryohgo, and was adapted into a 13-episode anime series. There are also 3 bonus episodes that tie up some loose ends, but they’re not essential. The story is told non-linearly, and as such, there are three separate storylines, which all end up converging at the end.

5 Naruto Theories That Could or Should Be True

Written by: Shiggins and Micha [Collaborative article]

Ever since the revelation of Tobi, it has long since been established that Naruto fandom is full of bullshit. We were blinded by the huge number of possibilities for the identity of the formerly unknown man and thus we had forgotten the most essential and crucial detail of all; Masashi Kishimoto doesn’t give a shit about our theories.

And yet here we are again to discuss some insanely possible theories that we believe could’ve, would’ve and should’ve happened.

5. Tobi was Future Shino

And now for a theory like no other. A theory to defy the way rational people think and to make us seem utterly and completely insane. A theory that will cause people’s faces to burn from the severity of the recurring face-palm they will give themselves as they read this section and see a glimpse of the inside of our minds. Allow us to sum up this theory for you all with just a few simple words.

We once believed Tobi could be Shino from the future.

The Masked Face Of Evil

Character Birthday Challenge ~ Sasuke

I'm off to the Netherlands for a week, so won't be able to post on the day itself. 

-----

Favorite personality trait:

Keeping his cool in fights. Always analyzing things that happened, trying to think one step ahead of his opponent, knowing when to use a technique on a certain moment, seeing him fight is always amazing.

Favorite relationship:

Itachi. I really loved seeing them train together. And even though Sasuke only felt hate for him, in the end he knew why Itachi did all these things and came to realize he always thought wrong about him. He cried, which says enough.

Character Birthday Challenge ~ Kotetsu

Favorite personality trait:

Being carefree. The way he forgets about his duties, just to hang out, is hilarious. Luckily there’s Izumo to remind him about them.

Favorite relationship:

Izumo. His loyal partner. I really love this relationship. They know each other so well and know exactly what to say to the other to get him to do something.

Fairy Tail Chapter 344 Review - Failures Fight Fairly Well

Written by: Shiggins

And now the strangeness increases.

While Erza stays behind to investigate the village of giants and ice for clues, the rest of the Fairy Tail group chase after the treasure hunters from Sylph Labyrinth. The treasure hunters claim they went through too much trouble to obtain the moon drip and aren't going to give it up easily. After a small foot race which, thankfully, did not take twelve pages, the three decide to stand and fight instead. And it turns out, they aren't half-bad.

Naruto Chapter 639 Review - Night of the Dead Dead

Written by: Shiggins

And so their attacks do fuck-all.

To start this week off, we saw the remains of Hashirama and Tobirama reform back, slowly. Tobirama then begins his counterattack against Obito, using a strategy he seemed to have created years and years ago for all Edo-Tensei zombies. Hashirama binds Obito using his wood-release jutsu as  Obito suddenly realises he is covered in those convenient explosive tags that have been in the entire series. To put it simply, tags keep multiplying and exploding, over and over again.

It's Like A Pretty Hug That Kills People

Of course, it doesn't work. Why would it? We've already seen Obito survive an attack like that, when going up against Konan and her canyon of boom. He only had the sharingan and still managed to escape that impossible deathtrap. So now, he's super strong with a monster inside him. Nothing is going to work.
