Last time i post about this, for the same reason you wrote: debating about this is tedious!
I really like what is happening in the manga now, easily i would be reply him, but it's pointless because he wil not change his opinion. What i don't understand is why you are reading a manga that you don't like.
But i can't forget that this is a forum and you can't agree with everybody's opinion... so in the case that you got a never ending quote-war, it's the time to stop and catch a breath.
