    You need some Gash Bell in your life. Rereading it as we speak and it's just as epic the third time. It has one of the most badass teams in shounen.

    Sakura getting punched in the face made my day. :awesome

    This manga honestly made me like Naruto all over again.

    Ughh God this is like Beyblade on crack, I don't have the patience to read 90 chapters of leveling up and advice on friendship. Plus the artwork is sorta shitty, it looks like a drunk Japanese artist drew it.

    I think I'll just wait on the next issue of Gantz

    There is a difference between explaining a concept in simple terms and doing it such a way that you're pointing at your main character and going "SEE THIS GUY!? HE'S UTTERLY RETARDED IN EVERY CONCEIVABLE WAY!" Kishi stepped over that line, got on his rocket bike, and said fuck you, readers, you are just as retarded.

    And even admitted as much in ... whatever chapter it was... "WHY ARE ALL REALLY POWERFUL NINJA'S SO FUCKING STUPID!?" I would call it a paraphrase, but that's almost nearly exactly what they said.

    Interesting. It's been a couple months since I read Naruto (too much Sasuke so I took a break for a bit) but this was fun.

    It's more like a Star Wars EU book than fanfiction though, yeah? I mean surely given the quality and whatnot it was done officially.

    Edit: WTF is with those outfits at the start of the most recent chapter? (Ch3?)

    ...

    Jesus Christ what the fuck is going on here....


    Edit: Right. Having read this all again and finishing the newest chapter, I feel the need to reiterate my previous point:

    Completely, utterly unfunny and worthless. :| jesus christ.... TAPE-Byakugan!Lee... Just fucking...

    Ahh... the old erection joke, eh? 'Hard' work?

    Yep, this is just as bad as the flagship series. Plus Chibis are fucking obnoxious; half the reason I got into Naruto was because Kishimoto's people actually looked vaguely human.

    Nah, it's a One Piece Bon Clay reference.

    [For those unfamiliar with One Piece (there has to be a few out there), this guy is a hard gay guy that fights with what he calls Okama Kenpo, which is basically ballet-kenpo with a bunch of French words as attacks.]
