My bottom line is this: the manga uses a lot of shounen elements, not all of which are the better. But there's no such thing as a manga that doesn't have flaws. And I don't want to hear anyone bitching about the flaws, especially not at the level you're bitching, when the rest of us are willing to just wait patiently and see where it goes. Can't deal with that? Then get out of this thread, and let the rest of us enjoy the series [/end rant]

And yes, while I did say Moka may have chosen to go with Akuha to learn about what happened to Akasha, I'd have thought someone with any bit of rationality would've wanted to know more about Akasha herself, and Fuhai-sensei was the best person to learn about that from, not to mention the one who had the best chances of repairing the seal. Joining the enemy to do that instead was a bad idea, and Moka should know that regardless of what she does, Tsukune will follow her and he'll still put himself in danger, which is exactly what she wanted to avoid. It's like she's telling her "get over me, you have many other girls following you anyways." Quote:

Hm, I believe that they have some hidden motive in doing this, which won't be revealed for some time, at least until Tsukune catches up to Moka...
@Tsuyoshi Well, you got a point that they could have done that, but unfortunately Ikeda didn't let Tohou Fuhai and Moka rescue the hostages like that... I believe that he has some plan, by finishing this arc like this, so I will just wait and see what is going to happen next... About Moka's choice of willingly going with Akua, well it's not like she didn't do something like that earlier, during the Lilith mirror arc... It's just that the consequences of her current decision are probably going to be a little bigger then the consequences of the Lilith mirror arc, but at least it gives some opportunities for the author to develop Tsukune's character and his abilities, which haven't been developed for a long time... On something else, that so far ... nobody commented upon, didn't anyone noticed what Akua has said to Moka, before they left on the airship... I mean, welcome to our Fairy Tale , honestly ... how much obvious Akua can get... I mean it definitely points out that one of Akua's objectives was to make Moka "join" the Fairy Tale organization, which is definitely not something that Akasha would want Akua to do, and literally throws all of Akua's statements regarding the promise that she made with Akasha out of the window. After all, I don't think that Akasha would want her daughter to have anything to do with the destruction of the human world, which is basically Fairy Tale's "primary" objective... |

I think the best way to develop Tsukune's character now is to throw him into the fire and possibly have him fight Moka to develop both their characters and their relationship, considering that's been in a standstill for way too long. Quote:
I've theorized that the destruction of the human world isn't their goal, but the discovery of the alternate realm, the true demon world (think Yu Yu Hakusho). But to do that, they need power to open the gate between the two realms and only those with the Shinso Blood have that power. Hence why Fairy Tail wants Moka, Akasha and Alucard, the latter having turned into a mindless killing machine and is being used as a tool by which to achieve FT's objectives. Not unlike FoxHound and Metal Gear. |

Who, knows ... it might be possible for a fight to occur between Moka and Tsukune, though I agree with you Tsuyoshi that the chance of that is pretty low...
Regarding you're theory about Fairy Tale's objective ... that's a pretty interesting idea, though there still isn't much evidence that something like that is going to be revealed in the manga... Though if that theory is true, then wouldn't Fairy Tale need Tsukune as well, after all he has the blood of a Shinso in his veins too... Yeah Kahula was pretty sharp, to warn Kokoa to not let Moka and Akua meet, unfortunately she wasn't aware of the fact that the thing that she wanted to prevent from happening, has happened at nearly the same time she issued her warning to Kokoa... So I think that, it's going to be pretty interesting to see how Kokoa (or Kahula, if she's going to be around when this particular information is going to be raveled) is going to react, once she learns what actually happened in the Wong family mansion... |

If anything, I think Kahlua would join Kokoa and the others to get Moka out of Fairy Tale, or at least convince her this isn't the best way to get answers or protect her friends. |

The good thing to know about all this is that in the end, Moka will be rescued, and a happy Moka X Tsukune ending.
Moka will most definetly NOT want to join Fairy Tale, but will probably have to, in order to pretend to please Akua for now... Yes, this is something Akasha most certainly would have not wanted, Akua is just being her ruthless old self, but Akasha is right about Moka finding true happiness in her destined one, because we all know Ura-Moka "secretly" loves Tsukune. While we may not like on how the hostage situation worked out, This is Ikeda's story, he most definetly did not ignore anything about this, hes doing the whole "boy rescue girl" thing, that is famous in manga, cause now we get to see Tsukune's manliness, but this needs to be done to further develop his Shinso power or to even finalize it, Tsukune has the whole insane high-speed regeneration thing down, well.....when he goes berserk. I do have to say that some point in the future, Kahlua will most definetly join and possibly Miyabi to, but for now Kahlua is giving info to our heros before she makes her move, even though Akua said "welcome to our Fairy Tale ", even that could have been something to "knock" us off, Akua could have said that to be a little poetic, you never know, im just throwing in possibilities behind the meaning of what she meant, but if it is Fairy Tale related, then i wouldn't be surprised, this is basically the part of the storyline where, fate truly becomes cruel, i never forgot that, when Tenmei said it in CH27, cruel times and a happy ending, love it. But these are my thoughts so far, this is a damn good manga, and im proud to be reading it, like you guys are.

People have opinions, that's what forums are for. This is not your forum or my forum and I will never tell anyone who doesn't like someone to get out of the thread. People come here to debate, not all agree mindlessly that something is good or bad. If anything, it helps keep the thread moving. I have nothing against anyone in this thread and I do enjoy the manga, but I do occasionally rant over things I don't like, especially when I don't like the direction a manga takes. It's why I've dropped Kurohime, why I've dropped KNIM. I've still got hope for this series, I just don't want to see it take another year plus for things to come to fruition. And shounen, btw, doesn't mean a lot of fighting. Tell that to KNIM, GE, Ichigo 100%, etc. Shounen is just an age group that gets targeted, but there can be a slew of different content in there. Action, sports, heavy romance, ecchi, etc. Action just happens to be my least favorite due to the way things drag on (the only one I still read is Naruto and that's out of habit... dropped Bleach and Mahou Sensei Negima long ago... I do still read HSDK, though, just because I like the art and the ecchi, plus arcs don't seem to last forever). Anyway, what I'm saying is, don't take it so personally. Whether my opinion of something is good or not will in no way affect you or your opinion. I had my rant and I'm done with it (otherwise, I would have had more to add by now), so instead of getting angry at me about it, just let it go. You can continue to enjoy the series, heck I give you props for sticking to it, but please, don't ask me to be a mindless puppet who nods and says "That's great!" to everything that happens. >.> And for your info, while I find Tona Gura only so-so, I absolutely love Sora no Manimani and wish it got scanlated more. And I still love this series and the characters, I just don't like how the last several chapters have been handled and dragged out, which is what bothers me, not the series itself. I've never once said I don't like this... it's not like the Medaka Box forums in the beginning where people who post just to bash it without having any reasons why. That's trolling. I was just expressing an opinion based with solid reasons as to why I didn't like the chapter. If I wanted to troll, I'd just post something like "This manga sucks." and then let the flames begin. I'm willing to debate and see others opinions, a troll is not. Anyway, back on topic... Now that the hostages are safe and Akuha is gone with Moka and Fuhai said there's nothing keeping them from going after Moka, what's keeping her from escaping? If she DID join willingly just to learn more about her past, then she really did kind of throw away her friends there for her own self interest, when she probably could have learned a lot more from Fuhai. It just seemed to be a really rash decision from someone who's been shown to be really level-headed before. Heck, something tells me that even Omote (where are you?! please come back!!!) would have even stayed at her friend's side instead of going with them and they would have gotten through it. Oh, and I really hope Tsukune saves Moka (if she needs saving) on his OWN instead of having everyone else do it for him. If Ikeda's going to do a ridiculously cliched rescue arc, he might as well turn Tsukune back into the brave guy he was back before this arc and not the depressed, emo guy he's been. He hasn't really had a real level up since he went ghoul, so it's been WAY too long. He's overdue.

Moka can't escape from Akua, their on an Airship, Akua is more powerful, she aint gonna let Moka escape either, as for Omote, i have a feeling she will play a big part while she is with Ura-Moka, helping her.

After all Akua is quite aware of the danger that Tohou Fuhai brings to her plans, which is basically the reason why she put up this whole hostage situation that made Moka leave with her, and the other member's of Tsukune's group or Hokuto and Kiria aren't strong enough to defeat Akua.... Which means that only Tsukune has the element of a surprise against Akua, and since he has Moka's blood in his veins... Tsukune is probably the only one who is able to match Akua's power's (besides Tohou Fuhai, but I don't think he would be useful in the fight against Akua)... |

She prolly can actually, or could've at least. She said she couldn't fight Akuha when hostages were involved because she's too powerful. If there were no hostages involved, I think she most certainly would've fought. Which is further reason to believe that it would've made more sense for Moka to fight while Fuhai-sensei took care of the gunmen before they could do anything.

Simply, Ikeda had a different idea about ending this arc, then what we have expected , and there isn't anything that we can do about it, except hoping that the "Resuce Moka" arc is going to be a little better then the current one... Personally I have nothing against this arc in general, since it provided quite a lot of information about Moka and her family, it's just that the ending to it, could be done a little better, but honestly speaking the author had to end the current arc somehow, and start the next one,... and considering how this arc has been resolved ... Tsukune has acquired quite a huge motivation to become stronger then he currently is, and fight against Fairy Tale... |

I agree that this arc provided plenty of info on Moka and her family. The only thing I don't agree with is how long it actually took to get to this point and how dragged the chapters felt, and the surprise ending to the arc that made no logical sense due to someone's uncharacteristic irrationality. This does give him a strong motivation to improve but I think just seeing what happened to Moka in the past would've been enough motivation as well because he would realize that Tsukune would have to fight Alucard eventually in order to truly free Moka. |

Tsukune and Moka are more powerful than her, but their Shinso blood has yet to fully awaken, i feel it might happen during Akua's and Tsukune's confrontation, there isnt really any reason we shouldn't think about that possibility, but that is most likely too happen. If Akua were to injure Tsukune in such a way like what happened to Akasha, the result will send probably both Moka's in a rage, to where she unleashes her Shinso power, finally synchronizing both their powers awakening Tsukune's Shinso blood as well, transforming him completely. This would indeed allow him to battle and probably defeat Akua on his own, considering how powerful the Shinso are, but he won't have to worry about that Moka will be helping him to give her a good beating.

Well, then that means that the next arc would have to be pretty long as well, to establish that Tsukune would be able to stay sane after his Shinso blood would awaken...
It would also mean that the "rescue Moka" is going to be the final arc of the R+V manga, though that depends on the place that Akua is taking Moka to... After all, if that place is going to be in the Shuzen family castle or some place, which is close to Alucard's current resting place and Tsukune's and Moka's Shinso blood is going to awaken ... well, then you can pretty much guess what is going to occur if something like that happens... Of course, it's still speculation on my part, since we still haven't got any clue on how long the "rescue Moka" arc is going to take and what is going to happen in it... |

Though it was already shown at the beginning pages of chapter 28, so it wasn't a surprise for me to see Hokuto in a wheelchair... Since, we are on this topic, in the same chapter it was said that Kiria was also trying to "capture" Moka, which is the reason why he sent the Gremlin to the plane in which Moka, Tsukune and their friends, where going to Hong-Kong, which makes me wonder what Kiria and Hokuto are playing at, by lending Tsukune their strength... to "save" Moka. After all, both Hokuto and Kiria, as well as, Akua are member's of Fairy Tale, which means that, they are supposed to be on the same side, right ? Last edited by Chris38; 2010-12-15 at 13:30. |
