Magi 203

Alibaba is still brooding this time, but not because of Balbadd. Morg thinks he should be happy because he added two more people to his household, but doesn’t realize he’s lingering on Olba and Toto getting together. They’re being very lovey dovey and they stop, thinking they’re bothering Alibaba, but he says it’s fine and goes to his room. He lets out his real feelings, frustrated that he can’t have a girlfriend.

Olba tries to apologize later, noting that Alibaba liked Toto first, Alibaba responding that he’s a bit full of himself, since he barely knows Toto. Olba responds that Alibaba still has Morg. He even notes that there are some signs that Morgiana likes Alibaba. But Alibaba says they’re just good friends and Olba misunderstood. Going back to his room, Alibaba is stunned, since he thinks there’s no way Morg could fall in love with him. However he thinks he might be too hasty in judging that way, since if he assumes she did, it would explain her behaviors that confused him. But he’s also not sure how to respond to her feelings. He then decides to confront her.

Morg is training, Alibaba not able to be up front, deflecting the confession with observations about the weather. But then Morg decides to tell Alibaba something, Alibaba thinking it must be a confession. She says that he is an amazing person, drawing people into his household with the qualities of a king. Eventually, though, he may have so many people that Morg will become less important and she wishes to remain by his side. He responds that she is important to him as well and that she should try to do something besides being with him. Morg misunderstands, Alibaba explaining that he meant that if she decides to stay, he wants her by his side forever. Morgiana starts to cry, since she’s so happy and Alibaba embraces her, smiling at Olba and Toto as the chapter ends.

World Trigger 38

Yuma is shown to get top scores in all the other exams he takes, figuring out that even if he gets perfect scores in the group sessions, it will take over 4 months to get 4000 points just by that. Therefore, his main focus is the rank wars, which Tokieda starts to explain.

We see some of the stuck up rookies from before starting the rank wars, which are apparently a simulation system. One of the bullies finds himself against Yuma. He effortlessly defeats them all, gaining much more points. Kido sees this, commenting on how much power he has, being Kuga’s son. The others think he might be too powerful and should’ve gotten about 3000 points, so he’d advance to B rank much quicker, but Rindo thought Kido would object. We find out Kitora started with 3600, so it’s something usually done for those with exceptional talent. Kido asks why Yuma’s not using his Black Trigger, Rindo responding that it’s obvious that Kido would object to that as well.

Chika is also brought up, with her exceptional Trion level. Rindo then explains that Chika is the main reason why the three skilled rookies in Tamakoma are teamed up, trying to become an away squad to get to the Neighbor world and find Chika’s friend and brother. Kido says that they may not even be alive and with the amount of countries, it’d be difficult to specify where they are. Rindo responds that they are still motivated by that goal, so they’ll work harder because of it. He then connects back to Miwa and his goal of revenge for his sister, Kazama commenting that he’s different from either of them. He also notes that Miwa has seemed disturbed by something Arashiyama told him a month ago.  Jin arrives and a meeting starts, the topic about a projected large scale Neighbor invasion.

We see Yuma and Replica talking about the human system of currency and how the higher amounts are in paper instead of metal coins as well as the concept of getting change when you buy something. He drops a coin and the chapter ends as Miwa confronts Yuma.

Bleach 557

The chapter starts with something causing massive destruction in the area where Bambietta is and she’s stunned at the power. We see Dangai Jouei and he shows off his power more.

Bambietta is surprised there wasn’t a dog/wolf under the armor and then moves to attack, thinking there might be one under the new form’s face. But it blocks her attack with its hand, seemingly no damage dealt.

Komamura explains that the original form was armor with life breathed into it, but the new form is pure reiatsu, so her reishi based attacks cannot affect it, since it’s intangible in a way. But Bambietta responds that she should still be able to destroy it, since it’s exposed now and anything she puts her power into explodes. Komamura retorts that there’s no life in it, since it cast the source of its life away.

We see his ancestor looking at the heart Komamura gave him and Bambietta is confused, since her understanding was that the Bankai was linked to its holder, so if the holder was killed the Bankai should cease to exist. She then attacks Komamura himself, but it seems like even he is almost indestructible. We see the hole where he removed his heart and he explains that his body is like a shell now, that he’s already cast aside his life for this power. The body he has is temporary, but for the amount of time he has for the Human Metamorphosis technique, his body is immortal.

Bambietta thinks he’s wasting his time, since he might defeat her, but he’ll die as well. But Komamura says that he decided this from the start, since he has to repay the debt he owes to Yamamoto. He specifies he isn’t throwing it away, but putting his life on the line, so I wonder if he’ll be able to survive this.

The chapter ends as Bambietta is cornered by Dangai Jouei and he slashes her as the chapter ends, but Bambietta explodes, meaning this battle might not quite be over.

Naruto 655

We see the Tailed Beasts all compliment Naruto on bringing them out and stopping Obito.

Sasuke moves to kill Obito, Obito accepting it. Suddenly Kakashi appears from the other dimension, apparently also moving to kill Obito. He says he’ll talk to Sasuke later, but since Obito was his friend, he’s taking responsibility. But Minato stops Kakashi at the last moment. The rest of the army seems to support killing him, but Tsunade calms them down.

Minato tells Kakashi that while Naruto was the one to stop Obito, Kakashi has to be the one to really tell him the truth and can sympathize with him the most.

Minato tells Naruto and the others to support Hashirama, Madara still needing to be sealed. He tells Kakashi that Rin wouldn’t have wanted this to happen, but he blames himself most of all. Minato wanted to protect Rin, Obito explaining how Rin was the most important thing to him. When she died, his world became bleak and dark. Even as he pretended to be Madara, his conviction only deepened and he couldn’t see any hope. Kakashi says he felt the same way, having lost everyone close to him. But he remembered Obito’s words and he tried to see a new future with the Sharingan he gave him.

Obito thinks he’s talking about Naruto and that he won’t fail, but Kakashi admits he could. But he’s less likely to fail and Kakashi says he will help him when he stumbles. Obito asks why, Kakashi explaining that Naruto doesn’t accept things as they are, always pressing forward. And he draws in comrades with that attitude, which makes his resolve stronger. Obito wonders if it’s possible to be so positive, Kakashi saying that he can find it, since he is like Naruto in his own way. The chapter ends as Kakashi says if Obito had had friends like Naruto does, he could’ve seen a new path.

Naruto is on hiatus until the beginning of next year, so at least a month without Naruto.

One Piece 728

We see the chaos continue in Dressrosa, thanks to Doflamingo’s meddling. The higher ups have called Vergo and the Marines to quell the conflict.

Meanwhile Viola, who was the member of Doflamingo’s army with the Goggle Goggle fruit, finds Monet opening the palace doors to let the “true” rulers into the palace. We see what I imagine is most of Doflamingo’s major crew enter and proceed to clear out the soldiers and everyone else.

Riku, meanwhile, is grief stricken at what Doflamingo is forcing him to do and the citizens are astonished at the atrocities he’s committing. They begin to resent him, starting the hatred that continues to the present.

Suddenly, Doflamingo and his three highest generals, Diamante, Pica and Trebol, appear to “save” the country. They go about this and the people love them for saving them from the horrors that occurred.

The story complete, we see that everyone regrets doubting Riku. Usopp thinks that logically, the king would’ve been put to death, but since that clearly isn’t the case, we get an explanation of how he survived. Viola was King Riku’s daughter, presumably Rebecca’s mother’s sister and with her power, Doflamingo agreed to a deal: let King Riku live in exchange for Viola joining his group. And now she’s Violet, so we see how the pieces connect and why Violet seeks to escape. The suffering they must have had to endure weighs heavily on the others.

Even the army defected, though they had no other choice, some of them dying in the conflict. But it turns out that the soldiers were still only a portion of the country’s army. Many were turned into toys and some have even forgotten who they are. The toys still recall their hatred for Doflamingo and the toy soldier says that’s what will turn the tide in this rebellion, since there are so many of them.

Usopp says they don’t have to fight Doflamingo, since their main objective was destroying the factory. It’s then revealed to them that Doflamingo didn’t actually quit the Shichibukai, which understandably makes them shocked and see that their original plan is falling apart.

We see Chinjao and Riku talking about their retirement and that they wished they had children. The other grandson of Chinjao and other fighters are being turned into toys, explaining why Chinjao is losing his memories of them.

The chapter ends as Luffy finds Zoro and Kinemon, Bellamy moving to attack Luffy as Doflamingo ordered him to.

Fairy Tail 360

Natsu and Jackal are still staring each other down, Mikero starting to run away, Lucy and Wendy keeping him safe.

Jackal uses his power and creates a ring of explosions around the area they’re in, sealing them so they can’t escape.

Natsu moves to attack, Jackal using an explosion directly on Natsu, but Happy says they’re useless on the fire dragon slayer, who eats it and closes in on Jackal, knocking him back. He dodges Natsu’s follow up attack, but Natsu then attacks from below. Jackal seems beat, but he tries to tell him something. But Natsu isn’t having any of that, pummeling him more. He remembers that he’s supposed to ask about their hideout and goals.

Mikero thinks that they could be after “Faith”, a “White Inheritance” that is rarely known about even amongst the council members. The mystery behind it deepens, since Zeref apparently knew about it and that was part of his plan. He moves to leave, but the others are suspicious, thinking he knows something that he’s keeping from them, but he insists he doesn’t know anything

Jackal gets back up and before he starts again, he tells Natsu that his curse is turning anything that touches him into bombs (though I wonder how he blew up the other stuff before unless he also made contact with it at some point) and Natsu begins to glow, exploding and seemingly defeated and charred.

The chapter ends as Jackal says that Mikero should give him the info he desires, so he’ll just kill his granddaughter instead of both of them.
