Oh, Akatsuki no Yona It's really one of the best shoujos out there right now.
I'll have to see if Kuroko no Basket is my next sports anime. I'm kind of intrigued about the older ones from the nineties and eighties.

Read/watch Slam Dunk?

[trang95]

How's a beggining to you? 

Well, I have to get used to the artwork tbh. I haven't read a manga from the eighties since Ranma 1/2 Got a little taste of the gore, so let's see how brutal it can get XD

Either that or Hajime no Ippo.

[TouKen4Life3g]

Both are top notch. Hajime no Ippo is still my favorite in anime. MadHouse nailed it with the dramatic, atmosphere, especially atmosphere like holy crap, someone give a medal to those announcers, animation timing, and more. It's the closest you can get to the term "fighting action," so you know MadHouse can hit a home run.

Your gonna die before you finish 1100 chapters of this great manga

Yeah, I saw clips of it, and the animation was amazing.

Obviously, I'd watch the anime, lol XD Don't wanna miss out on the animation.

[TouKen4Life3g]

Don't forget there is a movie as well. But yeah, that series is awesome. I can't believe I haven't seen Rising. I'm putting that in my list.

Best choice!

It saved me after Naruto! Such a great manga! I've read it on itnernet until tranlsation ends, and then I followed raws and anime (there was scenaries from raws).

No, I didn't read Angel Heart, not 1st nor 2nd season.

Oi! How is your berserk reading? 

 

I finally found the last volumes....when I think I stopped reading at volume 26 thinking it was the last one...when I found out there was 10 more, I felt soooo happy *.* 

I heard the anime doesn't have the same ending. 

I tried reading Angel heart yesterday, and couldn't stop crying, so I stopped. The first chapters are too heartbreaking. 

Erhm....Berserk ? Leaving the best for later ! I'll maybe continue reading it after finishing CH. 

Started reading Ch.1 yesterday. Interesting cast I gotta say... Their interactions are... so realistic? Anyways, I really like Guts and Casca.

That's the last manga I'm gonna read before finally starting One Piece. Figured that I might drag myself sometimes with One Piece, so I might as well read another manga before catching up on One Piece.

Ohhhh you started iit !!!   The first chapters are nothing...The real story starts later !! 

That's what great in that manga: it's happening in a dark heroic fantasy world, yet, everything else feels really interesting. There's no easy fight, you're going to see each character suffer...and you're gonna spend hours staring at those amazingly drawn double pages !

Hope I will get suck into it

Btw, I found out that City Hunter will get an OVA ;) :http://myanimelist.n...y_Hunter_(2015)

Let's not go out of topic. But that's going to be great to see.

So, which villain is the worst: Kaguya or Shin? Explain.

Toneri. He failed at marrying Hinata in time.

[Apollo]

Speaking of the Fodder Princess. I've seen that hate for her is escalating once again after that trailer where Boruto used her like a meat shield for insults.

Kaguya because she was a Deus ex machina in order to defeat Madara

[Bryon_Konoha_Ninja]

Kaguya because she was a Deus ex machina in order to defeat Madara

 

Easily Kaguya, though Shin is pretty weak too as a villain.

[HalfDemonInuyasha]

Kaguya definitely.

Shin at least has something behind him, albeit BS, with the whole "Akatsuki revival" crap and everything. It might also be because my bar is just set so low that I never actually expected him to truly succeed in doing anything himself (the original anyway). And even though there was no hint of him before, at least someone like him can be believed to exist at the time because, let's face it, even in times of peace, there will always be those who are dissatisfied with the way things are, still want revenge for something in the past, and so on (which is why the whole idea of "true peace" and such is, frankly, very naive idealism in the face of human nature itself).

Kaguya just...appears barely a dozen chapters after her name is mentioned for the very first time and has pretty much no rhyme or reason to what she's doing besides "taking back all chakra for her son's" in an otherwise mindless villainous way. (I even jokingly would tell Bryon before that I wouldn't be surprised if Kaguya, after she was first mentioned, was actually some tyrant who ended wars by force and kept them quelled through fear ala what Nagato wanted to use the Biju for.) Even then, it seemed like Black Zetsu was the one still in charge while Kaguya herself was just a vehicle he was driving. And yet, despite being pretty much THE most powerful individual in existence (having been changed to being THE Jubi by merging herself with the Shinju), she barely does anything besides supercharged Kamui warping. You'd think she'd be pulling out unique and extremely powerful moves every other panel that would make even Madara's meteor summoning look like nothing. And if that wasn't enough, Naruto and Sasuke (with 0.0000000001% Sakura) are the ones to beat her alone despite, IMO, being nowhere near as powerful as Hagaromo and Hamura (who was also just pulled out the rear at the last second), and could barely survive against Madara alone, even after their last power-ups that were literally just handed to them by Hagaromo..

[Toy Ninja]

What I don't get about Shin is if he was being cloned so much by Orochimaru, and if Orochimaru kept the cloning equipment and his DNA, then why didn’t Orochimaru have a ton of Sharingan’s available to him at the beginning of the series? I mean Orochimaru's whole deal at the beginning was that he wanted Sasuke's/Itachi's Sharingan... but why would he go to the effort if he could just make his own? Couldn’t he just make a new shin clone (complete with the Sharingan) whenever he needed to possess a new body?

 

Or am I missing something?.. its hard to make sense of this manga..

I assume it's because Orochimaru must've found Obito's whole Sharingan stash after the war and that's when he started the whole Shin cloning stuff. He was also after a full Uchiha body with a natural Sharingan, not just the Sharingan itself, given (assuming it wasn't completely retconned) only a pure-blooded Uchiha can fully utilize the Sharingan's potential while also possessing the stamina to continuously use it, which is why Kakashi couldn't turn his off and tired out pretty quickly from using it too much initially, so it would be why Orochimaru never tried to take Kakashi's Sharingan or body, even though he most likely could have easily.

Yeah, though Orochimaru also did say that he was interested in the fact Kakashi had the Sharingan from Obito, as well as having the desire himself to want to use it. Kinda surprises me he didn't think about using the Immortality Jutsu to take control of Shin's body...

But didn't he graft Shins arm to Danzo? That was before he even left the village. It kind of implies the experiments started way back then. Im not really sure.

Shin was able to use the Mangekyō wasn’t he? Wasn’t that rare even for a full blooded Uchiha? It seems way more reliable to use Shin and his clones then waste time with Sasuke or Itachi. I don’t really get why Orochimaru wouldn’t at least possess a Shin clone even if he was still going to go after Sasuke or Itachi. (to make it easier)

[rocci]

@inuyasha
You can use sharingan if you are an uchiha. Kakashi is not an uchiha, that's why he can't turn on & off sharingan.
So it's not only the pure blood who can use sharingan.

I think it would be better for orochimaru to have the body of senju and the eye of uchiha.

My assumption of pure blood is the child of two uchiha.
I'm apologize if I'm wrong.

Edit : I think only the owner of the sharingan who can unlock it to ms level.
That's why the one who awaken ms in obito eye is obito, not kakashi.
Because if anyone could awaken ms, then why don't obito or madara awaken the ordinary sharingan to ms?

And then how could shin awaken it? If there are no uchiha, beside salad n sasuke.
