I'm impessed!

Or do they get the magazine earlier. I always wondered about Tri-ring posting his(?) spoilers so early. When I was in Japan, I did not get to buy my weekly dosis until wednesday.

How do you do it? Magic?

Seriously, those weekly manga magazines are literally printed by the millions so printing start sometime around Saturday.
Next, there is no warehouse big enough to store all the magazines till release date so they ship them out on Monday furthest place first and closest place last so it can be placed on the shelves on Wednesday. Some stores recieve them on Tuesday but does not follow the agreement and places them on the shelves as they arrive.
It just a question if you know the right stores.

So about that chapter.

Spoiler for 326:

well , I have to say... I don't really understand what the laughing fist is doing in Yami.
He's too awesome much of a joker and doesn't seem to take anything seriously. Of course this could be a facade , but hey , he could have destroyed Ranka if he wanted , instead he just stood there avoided her attacks and doing the clown to amuse everyone else.
and Rachel isn't very evil either.
So yeah I have to say I don't really understand those two.
But then again , it could be a facade and he's really a dangerous psychopathic murderer . I'll be a tad disappointed if he is though.
Other than that , uh it's already been a year since the fight against lightning chick ?
so..wait how long kenichi's been in ryozanpaku now ?

[Cinocard]

A little more than a year, i believe?

Oh boy, that meat tank move of Lucha Libre was awesome in its own way. But can it even be called "Martial arts?" It would have reversed effect if Rachel used it.

And what was the Haigeki that Kenichi used? I got too used to footnote, that now I can't remember the moves' original names.

Of course this could be a facade , but hey , he could have destroyed Ranka if he wanted , instead he just stood there avoided her attacks and doing the clown to amuse everyone else.

Well, his purpose wasn't to finish Renka off, but to entertain, and to assasinate some Vips on the ship.

[Deathkillz]

From the way "Chuckles" was warming up, this is going to be one heck of a fight with ma kensei. But I do suspect that they won't reveal their full strength right away...not until they had some fun at least. The ship is at a risk of being smashed to bits before the bomb can do anything at all if they go over the top with having fun

dunno , I assume any other Yami master would have killed her already.
well , they all seem to have some sort of anger management problem and probably wouldn't have taken it too well that a "mere" disciple dares challenge them .... I think.

[Cinocard]

I think it's the other way around. They are masters with high pride, and won't pick a fight with kids. Of course, they may not bother killing them. Though some sicked ones may enjoy torturing people.

But they are all wise and smart. Putting on something too gruesome on a stage isn't exactly logical either.

Also, it seems that all of Diego's attention is into Kensei. So he doesn't really give a damn to Renka.

[Mizuno]

If they are serious, they don't need the bomb since they probably will wreck the whole ship...

[NoLongerSane]

I am looking foward to the Diego/Kensie fight due to how the past super masters match was done. I enjoyed how Kenichi got serious and was really laying it on hard to Diego's henchmen, especially the last one before the panel went to the preparation of the disciple/master tag match. I mean ouch, he had that fist deep with that guys chest. As for the Diego/Renka match up, as expect from someone from YAMI. In actuallity, this in not the first time that Renka was made to look weak, but the two that did were of master class. Diego is of the super master class and was warming up by just dodging Renka. Plus, I think it was nice to have Sparks be on Kenichi's side for the time being. He started to get serious when he defended her from that thriple Lionsault/LaPlancha/Backflip Splash maneuver. I am wonder what other Luche Libre moves we are going to be seeing in this arc.

[yongshun]

Two perverts going at each other yeah this should be fun.

Long live the censor bat!

So that's how its works. Seems, I always went to the "wrong" store. Well, at least I was able to impress some nice grandma with my excellent *cough* Japanese skills.

About this week's chapter.
I really like Diego. He puts on a great show (and is the only one giving fanservice to the poor neglected fangirls )
I think we will see a lot of crazy techniques in the upcoming match between him an Kensei.


As most of you already know volume 32 came out this month.
I love the inside cover of this one.

Spoiler for Stomach of Steel:

Yes, Kenichi, he got actually used to Honoka's cooking.

[-Sho-]

Just watch chapter 326 :

Like i thought Li Raichi helped them ^^
Haigeki tech pawns all lol !
Finally the battle start ! So it'll be like pro wrestling rules , 2 vs 2 rules where you can interchange between partners .

[Likely]

i kind of feel like the story is losing focus here. i mean, any time you got a boat + a bomb then there is a good chance the author is running out of ideas. when this arc is over it will be the most forgettable of the entire series.

[Fran~]

My experience is that a lot of mangas that i read, started way before i ever knew them, so, at the start i read even a hundred of chapters, so i found it very fast and full of win... but when i catch the last episodes and i must wait week after week for some development, there is a bit slower...

my 2 cts.

Is there any chance that this'll get a 2nd season?

Anything is possible.
Look at Hajime no Ippo, there was a seven years(?) hiatus between season one and season two.

True, maybe it got another season due to the milions of petitions, albeit from predominately the Western Hemisphere. I'd much rather not wait that long for HSD anime though.

Speaking of HnI, the manga is 850+ chaps..:O

[Tri-ring]

HnI is still alittle shy of 850, presently with 844 Chapters.
I should know I own all 86 volumes.
