Magi delayed this week, sadly

Boku no Hero Academia 74

The remedial students are taken by Aizawa to where Monoma is being taught, since he apparently failed as well.

Before they can start, Mandalay contacts them, explaining the situation with the Villains and telling them they should not engage.

As Aizawa leaves, he’s attacked by Dabi, trying to keep the pro Heroes occupied while they target the trainees.

Meanwhile, the two Villains who attacked Pixie Bob introduce themselves as the strike team for the League of Villains. One gives his name as Spinner, the one who will carry on Stain’s legacy, pulling out a blade composed of various tiny ones.

Mandalay and Tiger resolve to hold them off, Spinner revealing his Quirk may be reptilian in nature, the students retreating.

Midoriya tells Mandalay he knows why the Villains are here as we shift elsewhere.

Kendou is approached by Tetsutetsu and Ibara, who got gas masks from Momo, giving some more to their friends as they head to Class B’s safe zone.

But Tetsutetsu tells Kendou he’ll stay behind to stop the Villains, since he thinks Class A is ahead of them because of their experience and that they need to respond to danger like proper Heroes.

Meanwhile, we see Kouta approached by the Villain from before, who explains that he’s the newest there, so they’re hazing him by making him wear a silly mask. Kouta tries to retreat, but the Villain corners him.

The child realizes that this Villain is the one who killed his parents by the scar he has on his left eye, panicking at the revelation.

Deku leaps in to save Kouta, narrowly dodging the Villain, whose Quirk is physical enhancement of his strength.

 

His phone is destroyed, leaving him alone to fight this enemy, the chapter ending as he resolves to keep Kouta safe even if he has to fight on his own.

Seven Deadly Sins 157

The Meliodases continue to advance, Elizabeth and Hawk thinking it might be the same creatures from the Forest of White Dreams early in the series.

The monsters demand that they return the forest to them, blaming the three for the state of their home.

Hawk tries to trick them by asking a question only Meliodas would answer specifically for, but they instead answer in a way that targets Hawk, wanting to eat him.

Diane can’t bring herself to attack something with Meliodas’ form, but as the group starts to retreat, Gilthunder and Hauser save them.

Even they are forgotten by Diane, the pair explaining that the rest of their group has been separated by the labyrinth’s magic, leaving only them together.

The monsters are speculated to be the inhabitants of the area before the labyrinth came up, explaining why even something normally peaceful could become violent.

Suddenly, Hauser is attacked by one of the native beasts, a Sand Crawler. Before it can attack again, Hawk bites it and even eats it, changing into its form, albeit his face is still present. 

He explains that this is his power, according to Merlin Anything he eats with magical power, he can absorb the traits of it until he excretes in the form of poop or the like.

Gilthunder explains that what they met was probably an infant form of the creature, the adult growing well over 100 feet sometimes and eating even dragons.

Hawk thinks their luck just got worse, a giant mouth appearing behind Diane.

We see that there are other giant Sand Crawlers like that one, devouring knights in the area.

The chapter ends as we see a mysterious figure, someone we don’t know about, who’s also challenging the labyrinth along with the Seven Deadly Sins and their allies

World Trigger 127

Yotaro tells Raijinmaru to seek out Hyuse by the curry he ate recently. Jin thinks he has to follow the kid directly, since it’s such a low probability future that could happen.

Meanwhile, Ninomiya’s group is fighting the Idras, pushing them back so that the Snipers can eliminate them with half their numbers while the others provide cover fire.

The others wonder why Ninomiya is taking control, Kuruma wondering if age would be a better determinant for leadership. Suwa, being the oldest there, goes to Ninomiya for advice, the authority retreating back to him from the lower tier B rank agent with his capabilities as the #1 Shooter and a former A Rank agent.

With their numbers, Ninomiya guides them with tactics that’ll allow them to get to Miwa and Yoneya’s battle.

Yomi is contacted by Reghindetz, saying they need more numbers, summoning more Dogs in response. He also takes control of an Idras to give them support, since Gatlin’s group is almost at their target.

Gatlin and Radarikov arrive, preparing to fight Tachikawa’s group.

The #1 Attacker notes that Kinuta arranged things so they can fight at their strongest, no concern for damaging anything important.

Gatlin is confused, since they know their target and have apparently analyzed their Triggers as well.

Kazama appears from camouflage with his Chameleon Trigger, slicing off Gatlin’s arm.

The Neighbor decides to unveil his new Trigger power, four bladelike arms appearing out of the device on his back. Konami compares it to Reiji’s Full Arms. He also uses one of the spikes in the device to place a gun on his stump where his arm used to be.

The chapter ends as they start fighting proper, the threat larger with the unpredictability of Galopoula’s Triggers.

Bleach 659

Toushirou and Gerard introduce themselves as their battle begins. The Miracle strikes at where the Soul Reaper would be, but he manages to dodge, unleashing his Bankai and covering the Quincy’s giant upper body in ice.

Hinamori is carrying Shinji on her shoulders away from the battle as we shift to a flashback from Uryuu’s perspective.

He remembers Ryuuken doing some kind of surgery or investigation on his mother’s corpse, the thought of his father doing such a thing to his loved ones making him never want to be a doctor. At high school, Ichigo wonders why the son of a doctor isn’t going to a special school, but Uryuu says he doesn’t want to be a doctor, so it doesn’t matter, also bringing up how Ichigo’s father is also a doctor.

In the present, Uryuu is approached by Haschwalth, who notes that since Juhabach is now asleep, he possesses the Almighty power, implying that his future vision concerns him greatly.

Uryuu wonders if this implies he thinks the inheritor of Juhabach’s powers will betray them, Jugram saying he didn’t hint at that in the slightest.

He brings up these tiny cubes that he found scattered over the Soul Palace/Wahrwelt, noting that they’re connected to the Sanrei Glove, which he calls the Leidenshand, the Glove of Suffering, which Souken, Uryuu’s grandfather, stole in the past.

Uryuu insists he isn’t doing anything with them that warrants suspicion, Juhabach unsheathing his sword to prove it in a conflict.

A wall explodes as their fight moves outside, Uryuu running into Ichigo, the chapter ending as they meet up again after their last separation on bad terms.

One Piece 813

Everyone’s still in shock at the announcement of Sanji being betrothed in some way to Big Mam’s daughter.

Brook seems to recognize the Vinsmoke name, but we don’t get any details as Sanji’s cigarette that fell out of his mouth starts a fire, Capone putting it out.

The others remember that Sanji said he was born in North Blue rather than East Blue, Brook noting that it’s a huge endeavor get there, since you have to cross the Red Line.

Caesar also notes that if Sanji marries into Big Mam’s family, Purin likely her daughter since they share the surname Charlotte, the Straw Hats would become underlings in her crew by default.

Sanji refuses, saying he can’t just marry a woman he’s never met, plus Luffy wouldn’t suffer to be anyone’s subordinate, seeking to be the Pirate King.

But instead of letting them leave, Capone just says he gave them the invitation: they’re still in his Castle, and he controls it, so they’re already captured.

Not to mention that the importance of one of Big Mam’s tea parties is such that refusing it would create more problems.

We see a member of the Firetank Pirates, Monster Gun Vito, who notes that it’s his choice to accept or not. He whispers something in Sanji’s ear, the Black Leg wondering how they figured such a thing out. In response, Vito says that it’s because Big Mam is one of the Yonkou.

Sanji begrudgingly goes along with this, handing a note to the group and apologizing for keeping some kind of secret from them. He kicks them out, Caesar still left as a hostage for Sanji to use as collateral.

He brings up how his wanted poster qualified that he was wanted alive, speculating that Big Mam arranged that along with the marriage. Capone decides they have no choice, since Catviper is outside.

The Castle Man retreats, Sanji telling them that they don’t have to worry, that he’ll fix this problem on his own.

The chapter ends as Brook tells the others they shouldn’t pursue, since he thinks Sanji has no intention of returning, the note simply saying Sanji has a girl he has to meet.

Toriko 355

We’re told that the Wolf King’s sense of smell allows it to discern information about a person down to their Gourmet Cell Demon and even can be applied to inorganic matter, like rocks.

The things it analyzes seem to be frozen as if their soul was drawn out of them. So it’s not a literal soul sucking so much as the analysis has this effect on them in a temporary fashion.

Toriko’s Gourmet Cell Demon, specifically Red, appears as Toriko notes they have a good sense of smell as well.

Before they can fight, Starjun, having recovered, teams up with Toriko to attack the Wolf King.

Their attacks make the Wolf King remember a battle it had ages ago with a powerful beast (most likely Jirou from the appearance we see), the combined strikes creating a giant chasm in the earth.

Toriko and Starjun see the Wolf King behind them, Toriko and the Wolf King exchanging information through their senses of smell.

The nature of NEO is revealed in some sense to Toriko, while the Wolf King learns of Toriko’s Gourmet Cell Demons, of which there appears to be a third.

The two continue to process this information as we move to Area 5 with Zebra and Brunch.

The chapter concludes as Yunyun appears, Komatsu and the others arriving to bring them along with NEWS.

Fairy Tail 469

Cana and Porylusca come in, Happy explaining that Natsu turned out like this after they retreated from their fight with Zeref.

Porylusca checks Natsu out, concluding that his constant exertion has made his magic overheat and he’s developed a tumor of Anti Eternano in his body that must be removed.

But she says there’re no doctors on Ishgar who can perform the surgery.

Brandish says she can use her magic to shrink the tumor to practically nothing if they’ll release the seals on her. Lucy pleads with her to do so with tears in her eyes.

Natsu is recovering afterwards, Porylusca and Makarov discussing how they managed to be saved by a youngster who was originally their enemy, Brandish voluntarily going back to her cell.

The Spriggan still insists she won’t be Lucy’s friend, Aquarius bidding her farewell as she takes Lucy elsewhere.

She reiterates that her key has reappeared somewhere and Lucy has to find it without her help. Lucy agrees, saying she won’t lose it to anyone else, relieved that she has a mission of her own after they save the world.

Meanwhile, we find that Lamia Scale and Mermaid Heel were forced to retreat because of Dimaria and Wahl’s forces being too powerful. We flashback to Kagura, her clothes all but stripped away by Dimaria’s skill.

Blue Pegasus and Sabretooth were forced to retreat as well due to Bradman’s power that took out many of their numbers

And the 4 Wizard Saints of Ishgar are shown to be defeated utterly by God Serena’s power, meaning this war has turned greatly in Zeref’s favor.

The chapter ends as Warrod says he wished he could’ve seen Mavis smile again, remembering their initial friendship in Fairy Tail years ago, God Serena readying himself to finish them off.
