Boku no Hero Academia 68

Shigaraki tells Black Mist to teleport the two visitors away, but he responds that their broker recommended them, so they can’t be weak fighters.

The pair introduces themselves, the girl called Himiko Touga, wanted for a series of killings, the patchwork man calling himself Dabi, both of them idolizing Stain for different reasons.

Shigaraki resents them speaking so highly of Stain, moving to attack, But as they all strike, Black Mist creates portals to stop them from landing any blows, telling his superior that they need to expand their numbers to accomplish their goals.

All For One’s apprentice leaves in frustration, Black Mist telling Himiko and Dabi that they’ll have a response soon, his master likely discerning enough to realize what they must do for his ideals.

Back at Yuuei, the failing students are worried about their missing the summer camp. But Aizawa comes in, revealing that everyone’s going, explaining that those who failed need it the most, since the whole point was to push everyone to create new strategies with challenging situations.

However, the ones who failed will still have supplemental lessons at the training camp, so it’s not a complete deception on his part.

Everyone’s looking at the packing list, Hagakure suggesting that they go shopping as a group on their day off.

The next day has everyone splitting up, since they need different things. Deku and Ochako are left alone, but she leaves, still flustered about Aoyama suggesting she likes him.

The chapter ends as Deku is approached by someone who feigns being impressed with his accomplishments, revealing himself as Shigaraki Tomura and telling him they need to talk about something important.

Seven Deadly Sins 151

Diane attempts the dance, but Matrona and some children say she’s terrible, the Sin of Envy getting angry at them for a bit. Her mentor says the children are like her own, though their real mother died, implied to be Dolores with their blonde hair.

The man in question, Zarupa, helped Matrona when she was heavily wounded at some point, coincidence having it that he was spared by Diane back when they were fighting his tribe as mercenaries. Matrona thinks it was Diane’s kindness that enabled her to be where she is now.

But she’s still confused about Diane’s memory loss, since this is the second time she’s returned to the giant’s homeland as an amnesiac, the first time after she was hanging out with King. She also wonders about the monsters that attacked her, Diane reliving the trauma in her mind and becoming distressed.

Matrona notes how powerful they were, wondering about Diane’s status and why they were pursuing her, since Matrona said it took all of her power to escape. But her student wants to resume the dancing practice, not willing to face her past.

As they begin, Matrona emphasizes that the Droll Dance is sacred to the giants, something that brought great joy to those who saw it. She notes that her student must become one with the earth in her dancing, appreciating it and growing a deeper connection in doing so.

Diane practices on her own, wondering about what she’s doing wrong, but moreso about her past, not recognizing her tattoo or the clothes she’s wearing, or even her hammer, Gideon.

Suddenly, a mysterious demonic being flies over her, seemingly stirring some memories in the giantess as she holds a piece of paper it dropped among many others.

Meliodas’ group finds a flier for a Fighting Festival in Byzel, which happened in the past with the group ending it with a fight against Holy Knights and nearly destroying it with Diane’s Sacred Treasure, Gideon.

The others think it might be a trap, but the Sin of Wrath thinks it’s their best bet to find clues about the Ten Commandments, since Escanor left them abruptly.

We see the being flying back to 2 of the Ten Commandments, having sent out the fliers everywhere, including where Diane was, meaning she knows of the tournament as well. One of the 4 is missing, suggesting it was found by someone and killed. 

The chapter ends as the smaller one, surrounded by tentacles, says this idea is better to find souls as well as Meliodas, whom she has a history with.

Bleach 653

We flashback to Shunsui’s brother getting one of the 2 hairpins that Nanao’s mother had. She says this is so she can be inspired by knowing that someone else has something she’s also wearing while she’s protecting Soul Society.

Shunsui is making a smug face, his brother hitting him in jest. He notes how he might appear to have mellowed out to his younger brother, but he says that’s because of how kind Nanao’s mother is and that it’s manifest in his own behavior as well.

In the present, Nanao has been pushed back by Lille’s attack, cut by it on the leg. She’s panicking, never having held a sword and never fought so directly. 

But Shunsui calms her by placing his hand over hers, Nanao noting how he’s always supported her, resolving to support him as well and work together to end this fight.

The Ex Axis releases a Trompete, essentially an angel’s trumpet and blows it to finish off his opponents.

But the attack is reflected back on him, the chapter ending as he realizes the power of the blade and continues to call the Soul Reapers arrogant for trying to attack a god, destroyed for good this time.

One Piece 808

Jack’s arrival has thrown the country into chaos, the pirate’s request for Raizou still confusing them as one of his subordinates, Sheepshead, taunts them.

He introduces his captain as one of the 3 Calamities, serving under Kaidou in his crew, Jack the Drought.

But as one of the older Mink tells them they don’t know where Raizou is, the crew starts to attack, not distinguishing between the elderly or children, everyone a target for their assault.

One of the crew members, Ginrummy, notes that their focus is to get Raizou and not to split hairs like Sheepshead does about Raizou being a ninja and not a samurai.

The Mink show that they aren’t weaklings, even the children able to defend themselves against the first onslaught with the similar electrical attack that Carrot used. But Jack refuses to give up or even negotiate, sending out stronger forces that push forward with more monstrous transformations.

Wanda notes that they had no idea how they’d gotten there or why they thought Raizou was there. Luffy speaks out in spite of Brook’s warning, saying that this likely means that the ninja Kinemon was with isn’t there, provoking an attack from some of the Minks.

Brook covers his captain by saying they were worried about the injured, the insult forgotten as they get to where Duke Inuarashi is, Luffy still a bit beaten up.

We meet one of the Musketeers that are the strongest protectors of the Duke, similar to the Guardians for the Cat Viper King. Sicilian is a Lion type Mink, very serious about everything, insisting that no one speak about nice things in front of him, like flowers or children.

He shows his gratitude with a deep prostration as they meet the Duke, who thanks them for saving his country.

Luffy thinks he must be strong, but Inuarashi says they can’t compliment him after he was defeated.

The chapter ends as we find that the only reason they lost was because of a weapon that Jack used from Caesar, a poison gas weapon.

Toriko 349

Komatsu enters through the Food Spirit Gate, his “appetite” drawn out forcefully in a way that seems somewhat traumatic to his mind.

Don Slime notes that Komatsu’s appetite is small compared to the massive forces in the Soul World.

Meanwhile, Jiji and Rin are moving everyone’s bodies to a protective area, so that Food Spirits don’t possess them. Jiji explains to Rin that the bodies without appetite are essentially dead, even though they still are living in a basic sense, since the Gourmet Cells and the like are inactive.

The group meets Soul Reviver Ika, who starts to explain to them about how to Revive Souls.

Komatsu is still in shock at the experience he’s having in the Soul World, everything vastly different in how he perceives it, especially time and space. The only thing he’s certain about is that the Food Spirits are aware of him being a chef.

He wonders why there are so many Food Spirits here, Don Slime explaining that the food Whale King Moon eats comes out here, as his stomach is connected to the Soul World. The meals becomes Food Spirits and this draws other Food Spirits here as well.

Komatsu sees a weak spirit floating around, Don Slime telling him that souls without Gourmet Cells start to lose all memories and form the longer they’re in the Soul World, explaining why Chako’s mother was starting to lose her recollections about her son.

But the same rule applies to even those with strong appetites over time, it seems. Komatsu starts to forget why he came here, experiencing a massive change in scenery as he sees the others trying to cook Spirit Food, also seeing the Gourmet Cell demons, including Toriko’s Blue and Red. Chiyo seems to have encountered her son’s flickering soul, while another chef is overwhelmed by how many Food Spirits are demanding food.

He still can’t recall why he’s here, but Red and Blue tell him that it’s for everyone to eat together. The Gourmet Cell Demon’s face changes to Toriko’s, reminding Komatsu of his friend.

This encourages him to take on the challenge of the myriad Food Spirits that appear before him, demanding food.

The chapter ends as Don Slime sees what appears to be ANOTHER coming towards them, shocked at how fast it’s appeared before them.

Fairy Tail 463

There was a Christmas special chapter that was a fun experience of the King Game, Erza feeling left out with the other people being paired up (Gajeel/Levy, Natsu/Lucy and Gray/Juvia), trying to get people to do risqué things under the pretense of the game, but failing, even ending up naked in front of her love interest Jellal as the chapter ends with them returning home together.

Gray insists that everyone needs to go after Natsu, but Erza stops him, saying they need to trust him, since he mentioned he had an ace to use against his sworn enemy.

The Ice Mage thinks the Sword Queen is putting too much trust in the Flame Dragonslayer, Erza wondering if he’s lost faith in his friend.

Lucy breaks them up, asking Mavis what they should do. The First thinks they should let Natsu do this, since if he takes out Zeref, it will significantly change the battle’s flow in their favor.

Charle also reminds Gray that Natsu isn’t alone; he has Happy with him.

The pair flies towards a massive army, looking like a giant black carpet. Natsu starts assaulting the army, which tries to fight back. As they start to overwhelm him with magic blasts from spears, he unleashes Roar of the Blaze Dragon King, which creates a massive scar in the landscape.

Zeref appears in a mass of black energy, revealing that Natsu only managed to take out 973 soldiers, still leaving over 900,000.

The chapter ends as Natsu and Zeref square off, Natsu indicating he’s going to end this once and for all.
