That guy will make for a great antagonist. I can't say whether I like him or hate him yet but he sure made a strong impression on me. I'm dying to see more of him.

Oh, and poor Shizuka

LeaD36 · 2011-01-22, 22:27

What a mastermind.
Might he be the first real antagonist we get in Bakuman? D:

KLGChaos · 2011-01-23, 00:03

I don't really like the guy and felt his manga was completely overrated. Good concept, but I felt it really had poor execution and poor ending. I don't really see how he was trying to show off how humans have to work together to survive-- then proceeds to kill off the entire cast anyway. Felt more like he was just trying to show how futile life is, which isn't morally ambiguous-- just depressing and cynical.

given the end is purposely intended by Ouba, taking it out, we can again bask in Ouba's genius.

I think Hattori will see through him though, of all the things the editors thought, he's the only one who held onto the calculative type comment. That aside, I reeeally wanna know what Ashirogi's up to with their own manga, feels like a long time since we had a story from their side.
Also can't wait till Eiji meets this guy, which one is louder?

Xagzan · 2011-01-23, 10:50

Looks like we have the first true Light Yagami in the series. Not the murdering part, but the unabashedly two-faced, keikaku part.

But really, top news on the internet for an unpublished manga?

Proto · 2011-01-23, 11:14

it was probably reddit.

Excelion · 2011-01-23, 18:35

He definitely has that bad guy feel with how he remarked about "stealing" others' ideas. In a manga like this, a calculating plagiarist of sorts makes for a great antagonist. I really enjoyed the PCP vs. Natural and Romance one-shot arcs, but wasn't a fan of the Shiratori one. This next arc really has potential.

Indeed. He only needs to change his hair a bit and strike a Phoenix Wright pose to look exactly like Battler.

Spoiler for new chapter in four words:

Yes, it was just that fun to read. Also chief's face was epic.

Johnny · 2011-01-29, 17:17

Spoiler for ch 118:

Proto · 2011-01-29, 17:26

I imagine Bakuman's real editor wouldn't be happy.

LeaD36 · 2011-01-29, 18:44

being the calculative type is good O.o
but i wonder when Eiji'll join the fray and voice his opinion.
It could be either : This is not what manga's about or it's totally genius D:

Xion Valkyrie · 2011-01-29, 21:02

He has to the skills to back it up. As long as he's not too evil (like purposely trying to sabotage others or something), he'd be a pretty interesting addition to the cast.

Kanon · 2011-01-30, 04:44

This chapter was awesome. I thought the editor in chief would be able to see through Nanamine, but nope, he was fooled like everyone else. If the anime ever reaches that far, Nanamine will need to be voiced by Miyano Mamoru. I shall accept no substitute.

d3ad3r · 2011-01-30, 05:29

Eiji still has the 'cancel one manga' card, doesn't he? Maybe it's time to be put to good use.

Kafriel · 2011-01-30, 06:23

Yeah but it's more like Fukuda to judge whether or not something is JUMP-ish, since he's the one who made a fuss about it before...

kakakka · 2011-01-30, 08:51

I guess Obha is giving us the tease lately with his takes on the manga concepts being introduced in Bakuman real life. This real scenario in the manga feels like PCP and the Hiramaru and Aoki event is a tease on the Love Fest that had happened before that.

KLGChaos · 2011-01-30, 08:53

I'm just waiting for him to pull out a Light or Aizen "Exactly as planned" speech... oh wait, he already sort of has. At least his is more realistic, though taking the opinions of 50 complete strangers with no experience over that of a seasoned editor is quite stupid.

I don't like the new guy and the way they're making him out to be some new manga genius that everyone loves, when quite a few people RL people didn't really like Classroom of Truth that much. :P

Kafriel · 2011-01-30, 09:11

He is supposed to make some kind of mistake, personally I think not trusting his editor will be his doom. Not saying that getting an extra opinion is bad, but trusting forum dudes over people who make a living out of editing works like his? Guess it just comes down to "his way" of reaching the top.

Johnny Working the bags... Join Date: Mar 2009	Spoiler for ch 118: Don't really care too much for this new person. Have they decided to put Eiji's rivalry to the background or forgotten and concentrate on this peon whose tricks will soon fizzle out. I for one wouldn't have let that two face into the lair if I was them. I just hope they don't GaryStu this character into letting him do whatever he wants because it's not conventional...
