Medaka is the Superman of her universe, there isn't anyone who relate or even get close to her without envious of her abilities and prowess.

I would agree with you if you are talking about the current Naze.

But I theorize that the younger Naze, when she was as young as two underwent the same kind of crisis, and came up with a different answer to it. Medaka was provided one by Zenkichi, Kikira partly resolved hers by creating her rather unusual worldview on the virtue of suffering, and in doing so, turned it to another kind of angst.

If not for the demand of spoilers, I seriously think this would be a dead thread.

Wolfenstein · 2012-05-30, 07:51

He has a point, though. Where are the spoilers?!

Soji · 2012-05-30, 08:03

Im suprise that no one post this one until now.(at least i dont see them).

Spoiler for 148:

Everything i find out about ch 148 until now.

Wolfenstein · 2012-05-30, 12:02

Chapter looks interesting. Especially curious as to what Medaka and Naze talked about, can someone give us a quick translation?

CxC will have it done in a day or so. So I don't think anyone would really bother.

So far I've enjoyed watching Naze and the way she fights. According to the manga she the closest to a minus, but her outlook on life would make her a plus. I can't really picture a offensive type. But she has the ability to modify bodies and she experiments on herself. That Ice and Fire skill seems cool XD. Got it handle it to Niso for thinking up some fancy skills.

Kumagawa skills are minus skills. But what makes him a minus is his outlook on life. Niso didn't really fully explain the minus and positive skill thing that clearly. But than again this is Niso so does it really matter?

What I'm troubled by is when Zenkichi got elected as student council president didn't it make the whole Medaka Box obsolete? The title would make us assume Medaka is still a main character even after the break the fourth wall fiasco. Than again we bakuman and no one really understood what the title meant.

Seriously who is this artist. His art is really good... and its freak'in ecchi. I can't believe Medaka Box is the only series hes done.

Kinda hoping Tenchi would come to the rescue, though. He does that sometimes.

There's a show called Naruto yet at times it should be called Sasuke...

Kishimoto cannot seem to decide whether he wants his gold haired messiah or the Jin Kazama clone as the main character.

The ending of that arc annoyed than the content, I really hated how it ended. Its one thing to troll people but its another matter to deceive into thinking whether anything in that arc actually mattered. Medaka beat a character who is more powerful than she is and for all Ajimu's fourth wall breaking, it didn't really as it was just a 'simulated delusion' created by her psyche. Unfortunately, not even Ajimu cannot beat her main character hax and the very shonen tropes she was lampshading. I am not sure about Bakuman or Gintama but that level of trolling is annoying than entertaining as everything in that arc amounted to nothing in one chapter. At least, Zenikichi beat Medaka and Medaka strives to make her own path instead of following her idea.

This development probably holds more importance than anything Ajimu's presence actually implied to some people. And I found it all pretty darn entertaining.

Sol Falling · 2012-05-31, 04:35

The series being called "Medaka Box" despite these latest developments in terms of Medaka's loss of her position, etc. is probably (er, possibly) just a setup for an epic thematic return for it sometime later on in the story, lol. I'm totally calling it a couple years from now, :P.

No one seems to have much interest in novels, but online retailers began showing the cover for the next novel:

Spoiler for second novel:

kantou · 2012-05-31, 07:51

great cover I already Volume 1 ...Volume 2 soon so I can read all.but nobody is interested in a translation ?because I'm not understanding all of the Volume

Last Carpet · 2012-05-31, 08:19

anyone else notice the connection between the suitors and their doubles?

Sakugo likes blood covered girls and Namanie's sword style has her bleeding heavily.
Sui wears glasses which is what Kariteru likes in a girl.

I bet that evil looking little girl is from the Kotobuki family. It would fit since Shinkirou is a pedophile.

I'm glad he's at least trying to admit that faculty members exist.

It makes you wonder why didn't they stop the fights in the school themselves, maybe they knew that the students were badass enough to resolve on their own.

Wolfenstein · 2012-05-31, 13:22

The Middle School girls did specifically say teachers kept out of student affairs.
