GotW: The end-of-chapter revelation is underwhelming. Jae Gu already came to that conclusion himself on-camera, as it were. It's only been like five chapters. In that time, he already decided to fight and stormed into a school to beat someone senseless for hurting his siblings. His reaction to that should be "okay, I'll do that."
Honestly, I was successfully convinced it was an unfortunate accident and the situation was now tragedy instead of villainy, so I was surprised.

I guess from now on I'll trust that that people with red hair are the devil incarnate.

Man I don't even know what is going on in God of High School any more. I miss when it was just about how tae kwon do is the best martial art in the world.

I wouldn't describe Noblesse as humans vs superhumans at all. Unmodified humans were obsolete almost the moment the story began.

This week in:

The Breaker: loving finally. :black101:

God of High School: A Gandalf Stand lol. Standing still casting and chanting for several seconds in a kung fu fight seems like a poor strategy.

Also the empirical evidence suggests that it does not, in fact, stop people from uploading their scans to reader sites.

I loved that fight. It successfully tricked me into thinking she was going to lose for a chapter or two, which is all I really ask of a kung fu series.

GoHS is probably my second favorite currently-running one after SMAHEPHS.

Heroes of Spring and Autumn 2 is out and it owns just as hard as the first chapter: http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Heroes-of-the-Spring-and-Autumn/2-Read-Online?id=160482

If you're at all interested in wulin fiction, or like Feng Shen Ji, you should give it a shot. It's full-color and gorgeous.

Don't forget that a Obama ordered a massive nuclear strike on Seoul to kill the giant god-monster the white-haired guy is summoning. Of course, chances are 100% that nukes will prove to be no match for Korean martial arts.

And yeah it's unclear exactly what either organization's goal is because nobody has explained anything about what's actually going on except in the vaguest terms.

Mostly the second one I think, but at least it's unpredictable.

And I'm pretty sure the idea is that his staff used to be impaled through that thing on the far side of the moon, since a scaffold was built up around it. Jin Mori just made it extend down to Earth, then retracted it down to Earth. You can see the scaffold collapse in the last space shot.

Awww, I'm going to miss Greed guy's increasingly ridiculous powered-up forms. If he's really dead.

I don't understand the whole super-lightning thing though. Could Sun Wukong do that?

I really like the core conceit of Knight Run (I don't think I've ever seen sci-fi wuxia before and it's an amazing idea) but yeah I don't know what's going on half the time and the translation is barely decipherable.

Pray spontaneously gave birth to Anne. In a nativity scene no less, in case the symbolism was too subtle for anyone.
Haha, I was coming here to post this because it certainly got a :pwn: out of me.

At least it explains why she's the only person in the universe remotely as strong as her.

They literally ran out of people to fight in the real world so they had to move to Asian Myth World to find new people to fight. GoHS is great.

They committed one of the classic blunders. Only slightly less important than "never fight a land war in Asia" is "never gloat about having rendered the shounen protagonist powerless and then make him extremely angry."

I think Daewi lost the full king's power when R gave it to Mira instead? I'm still really unclear on what happened there.

And/or Mubong is stronger now that he's no longer constantly saving it up.
